I LOVE MY NEW WATCH ITS SLEEK STYLISH AND COMFORTABLE HOWEVER i was disappointed to find that while it comes with 2 years of free lte service through goofle fi that works great however it does not support calling and Verizon wireless website states that it is supposed to support number share just like my classic 4 did. I EVEN WENT INTO THE BEST BUY STORE AND THEY ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT AND WERE TOLD THE SAME THING AS ME BY VERIZON I LOVE THE PRODUCT OVERALL THE BEZEL ROTATES AND THE 46MM CROWN IS OUT OF THIS WORLD HOWEVER IT IS A LITTLE MORE SENSITIVE TO TOUCH THAN I WOULD LIKE AND ITS EXTREMELY DURABLE I HIGHLY recommend this product even got another one for my better half!

The watch came in very fast and it has been a joy to use so far. I always wanted to have the rotating bezel so this is my first classic samsung watch. The squircle design has grown on me and I feel like the screen size is big enough even after using the watch 7 in 44mm and a oneplus watch 2r with a big screen. The battery can last me about 2 days with lte data off and continuos heart rate and stress turned on. I also do sleep tracking but not snore detection. With Lte set to auto or on, I get a day and 5 hours of battery life.

After using the Huawei Watch GT Pro 2 for years—with its incredible 14‑day battery life even after 3 years of use—switching to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic has been a mixed experience. - What I Don’t Like: Battery Life Coming from a watch that could easily last two weeks, the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic’s battery life is honestly disappointing. Even with Always‑On Display turned off, I’m only getting around 2 days on a full charge. I understand that the Huawei GT Pro 2 isn’t a full‑blown smartwatch like the Galaxy and is more fitness‑focused, but the 12‑day difference is still hard to accept. On top of that, Samsung really needs to improve fast charging. It takes about 1 hour just to reach 45–50%, and nearly 2 hours to fully charge. For a premium watch in 2025, that charging speed feels outdated. - What I Do Like: Health Tracking Where the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic truly shines is health tracking. The sensors are noticeably more advanced and accurate compared to my Huawei GT Pro 2. Heart rate, HRV, sleep stages, stress tracking, and workout detection all feel more precise and consistent. Samsung Health also provides deeper insights and integrates smoothly with other devices and apps. - Final Thoughts If you value health accuracy, modern sensors, and a powerful smartwatch ecosystem, the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic delivers. But if you’re used to the ultra‑long battery life of fitness tracking watches, be prepared for disappointment.

This is my go to work watch. Love the free data and messaging thru Google. Very comfortable. They really slimmed it down.

I upgraded from a very old Galaxy Watch 4 to this Galaxy 8 Classic. I love this watch. The rotating bezel wasn't a function I thought I'd like but it definitely comes in handy when I have gloves on. Battery life is a major plus if you don't have time to charge it throughout the day, I get about 2 days from 1 full charge. 1 thing to nit pick is the screen could be a little bigger (the numbers along the rotating bezel take up space) but I can live with it.

My dad absolutely loves this watch. It matches perfectly with his Galaxy S25 and he wears it all the time. It’s especially useful for him as he has a watchman in his heart due to atrial fibrillation so having accurate and constant readings of his heart is very important as he is also someone who exercises a lot. This watch has changed his life and being an older person, he is very fascinated with the new technology. 5 out of 5 starts

This galaxy watch 8 classic is the best gift I've ever gifted myself. It's performance is beyond imagination.

I highly recommend the Samsung Smart Watch due to its exceptional functionality. Beyond its aesthetic appeal and elegance, the watch incorporates artificial intelligence, enabling users to access a wide range of information effortlessly. This feature significantly enhances its efficiency, making it a valuable tool for various tasks.

Beautiful and luxurious, very good quality, they are rectified.

I love the watch the band is huge. I had to buy a separate band. The face is also very large but it's the watch I wanted so I had to settle for a large watch since it has no size options.

Absolutely nice watch my fiancé loved it it has so many features

Product is great.. took a while to get even tho it a was a pre order purchase.. love the watch and how it feels

I recently switched from an Apple Watch, and I’m very impressed with the Galaxy Watch8 Classic. The stainless steel design feels premium and solid, while the larger display is bright, smooth, and easy to read outdoors. The battery life easily lasts longer than my old watch, and the LTE option gives me real independence from my phone. The integration with Android is seamless, and the rotating bezel makes navigation effortless. Overall, this smartwatch combines style, functionality, and performance perfectly!

The rotating bezel is a game changer, you can use it to dismiss or snooze notifications as well as scrolling through menus and display screens. Sleep tracking and fitness tracking are excellent. Overall it feels like a major upgrade from my Galaxy watch 5. I got a metal band off of Amazon and it makes it look like a real watch. It's a little bit big on my small wrist but I don't really mind, it looks great. It also has suffered zero damage in the 6 months I have had it, the bezel protects the screen pretty well. It lasts about one day on a charge, I tend to charge it either when I'm in the shower or on my commute in the car. Zero complaints.

We love ot. Colors, size is perfect. Big enough to read messages

Great watch, i went for the classic over the ultra due to design. I had the Apple Ultra watch and it was good but i perfer the round watch. Works great and battery life is all day with settings on high

I've been a galaxy watch fan since it was launched. i was kind of mad when they took the bezel away and so happy its back. This watch is amazing and does everything I need it to do and more. It looks simple and stylish.

Absolutely the best watch to have! Best Buy always has the best prices. It absolutely pays to be a Total Rewards member and especially when it comes to the warranty. I love this watch. Thank you Best Buy and Samsung. Excellent screen, battery life and awesome big screen.

Great watch. It has incredible features. Also came with a second durable band. Perfect watch for my everyday and weekend activities.

I'm coming from the Apple Watch Ultra 1, and so far, I love it! Really has a premium feel, and I love the bezel. I thought nothing would beat that Apple Watch, but so far, I'm loving this. I'm not sure how durable it is as of yet but feels premium. Really comfortable, and user friendly with the spinning bezel!
