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 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.

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.

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

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!

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

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.

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!

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.

[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.

The Samsung Watch8 Classic was just what I was looking for when my Fitbit watch died. I love the customizable display and the scrolling menus when you rotate the bezel. It charges quickly with the included charger. I paired it with my Samsung S10 and it started tracking my steps, workouts and sleep. It seems very durable and I like the weight and feel of it. Also, the 46mm display is perfect for me. I need to charge it about every other day, but I can usually do that while I get ready for work in the morning. I should have purchased this sooner!

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.

So far, I love it! I love all the health monitoring features that it has, especially for sleep monitoring! It's just the right size for my wrist and it's not too heavy.
