Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have been using this 5G Galaxy Watch8 Classic for 3 weeks and absolutely love it. Had a previous Galaxy Watch but wanted to upgrade to this one for the 5G Cellular and the latest health tracking capabilities. The size of this watch allows me to more easily read notifications, text messages and emails. Lots more capabilities I'm still learning about. Easy to use; has long battery life. Connection choices are WiFi, Bluetooth, and 5G. When selecting this watch I was concerned with its size (I'm a small woman) but I love the size, and it fits nicely on my arm. Watch band is easy to buckle.

The screen sows way better and seems to be much more responsive to touch, the battery feels like it last way longer. Having the bezel back is the best feature of all. The watch band also sits much more comfortably thab previous watches I've owned

Looks nice, works great... Love the bezel, don't even have to touch the screen and get the screen smudge

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.

Awesome i use the watch classic 8 every day band is comfortable and connection to phone and network is fantastic

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 like the look of the classic watch. I find it is a little more precise than my Samsung Ultra as far as health tracking. It is also a little lighter it seems to me and not quite as big. Battery life could be a little better.

Love my Watch8 Classic. I had the Watch6 Classic and this watch seems a little less bulky and lighter. The screen is very clear and feels like a quality watch. I wish the watch bands were less expensive and not so exclusive to this model. I use mine with Google Fi for data and paired to my existing Cell phone number. It works good with apps and seems to hold a charge for 2-3 days if you use the power saving and keep the screen off. If I leave screen on and power saving on, then it lasts about 30-40 hours.

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!

An excellent gadget to have on you. Multiple screen choices for a different mood. Helps record sleep data to see if you're not being good with yourself, but do take it off , the sensor might cause a small rash due to sweat.

This watch is a nice upgrade from the classic 6 I was using. It feels lighter on the wrist. The bezel turns still which I love. The all white is so 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.

First month of ownership and the watch performs excellent so far. Charge it daily for approx. 40 minutes from 40% to 100%. My daily usage is consuming approx. 55% of the battery average. Linked easy to my android phone. The blood pressure settings and measurements work quite well when calibrated properly. Same goes for the activity meters. I like the sportiness of it, it does not look like an electronic watch. The face I like is missing the date unfortunately, and the face it has the date is too classy looking for my standards. But overall a very good watch so far. And yes you can receive and make calls from it with your cell away. I did get the LTE version. In case of emergency is like having another phone available.

Nice large face & dial with additional buttons from my Galaxy Watch 4. Larger battery with longer life.

Watch has been a great option and easy to sleep with to measure sleep metrics. I charge when I'm sitting at my desk out driving on my car to keep it up. Turn off always on display as a major battery favor, love my watch!

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.

[Employee of bestbuy] 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!

[Employee of bestbuy] Upgrading from a Galaxy Watch 4 to the 8, the upgrade in battery life and performance are noticeable and appreciated. Watch face options and included band help to be able to wear the watch casually or dressed up like a "non-smart" wrist watch.

I had the watch 6 classic and i finally upgraded to this one and the upgrades are amazing. Design is cleaner, and the watch is more smoother. Very helpful when exercising too! Easy to text others when youre not able to pull out your phone.

A very good companion device with my Galaxy S26 Ultra Smartphone. Its help me with all the notifications, very sleek design, and the rotating bezel work excellent. Plus I got 2 years of data and text messages sponsored by Google Fi.
