    Changing Bands VERY difficult for seniors.

    I have been in the Galaxy universe since the 5th version. While i love the technical aspects of this watch; the band system is awful. If changing the look of your smart watch is important to you, stick with the 7. I am 67 and have vision issues. It takes me roughly 60 minutes under bright lights to change the band. I almost suspect that Samsung sought to discourage the availability of 3rd party watch bands. I have settled on a band that i feel will be appropriate for my style (such as it is). It pairs very well with my S25 Ultra. I will keep it in service.

      Hi there BrianR, thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic. Your feedback allows us to continue to strive in providing the best products with superior functionality on the market to our customers while we remain committed to constant innovation. On the Galaxy Watch8 series and Galaxy Watch Ultra, the release button is on the watch instead of the band. 1 - Flip the watch over, and press the button on the bottom of the watch to release the band and pull it out. 2 - Do this on both sides. 3 - Now, simply push the new band into place one each side. You do not have to press the release button to connect a new band. Feel free to review, "How to change the band on your Samsung smart watch" if you would like more information regarding this simple process. Let us know if you have any questions or if you'd like additional assistance by contacting Support at your leisure. Thank you for being a faithful Samsung customer. - Debra Samsung

    This is my first smart watch and I got this primarily to monitor my sleep. It does a very good job with that. I am not using it much for the day to day things like emails and texts but it comes in handy and I can see why people use it. My review here is mostly to say that I really like the "classic" design of the watch because it goes with dressy clothes as well as casual, and the bezel looks great. I love the faces that Samsung provides and the chronograph styles seem to go well with this watch design. The band is comfortable but sometimes I fidget with it because it's either too tight or too loose. But overall pretty good. The battery life, at least the way I use the watch on a limited basis, has been excellent. I leave in the morning with about 80% and get home 10 hours later with about 40-50%. I leave it on power save mode. I charge every night before bedtime, and put it back on to monitor my sleep. So it's going from being charged at night to 90% to around 40-50% 24 hours later. That's pretty good, but if you use it more actively I am sure it will take more battery life.

    Have only had 2 weeks but so far it's been great. Bought a metal watch band on Amazon for a dress watch appearance. Many health items you can track.

    It's great having the weather, calendar, battery like of phone and watch, answering a call, seeing messages and appointments, accessing youtube music and steps activity all on the watch. The look is also great. It seems durable, but I can't give it a rating because it's brand new.

    Honestly I didn't want to buy this watch because of the price but it is so worth it over the regular watch 8 and I didn't need the ultra. I really like the black trim over the white and I immediately swapped band over to a metal one. The full metal body and the dial is something I'm so used to from the original frontiers and the screen looks absolutely fantastic.

    works great The only thing I don't like is that the screen is smaller than the previous classic model. I don't get why, but for the money you pay, it should be larger.

    Excellent Watch and smart phone companion. Great screen and I love the mechanical bezel. Much handier than a touch bezel. Good battery life. Glad I updated to it.

    Great fitting watch. Paired it with my S25+. It was easy to setup and so far it's very accurate. I was pleased with the comfort. Doesn't feel clunky or heavy.

    The battery doesn't seem to be as efficient as on earlier models and takes a long time to charge. Otherwise, nice watch!
