Wonderful watch
I like the watch, it is light, slim and sleek. It is better than the previous Samsung versions I have had before.

Great looking watch but it doesn't connect to my watch. Have the Galaxy 6 classic and had no problems. Seriously not happy. None of the suggested fixes do not work!

Watch 8
I have had at least 5 diffrent samsung watches. This by far is the most i have used one. First time I have kept a watch on while sleeping to track my sleep but I have been with this watch. Main reason I can now is due to long battery life. I have already been getting more sleep since I have been tracking and that is the only thing I have done. Just the fact of tracking my sleep and seeing how many hours I actually get nightly, made me realize how little sleep I have been getting and I have already done better. Next I will try some of the watches suggestions to get more sleep!!
Love this watch. The ring is next.

Stylish and Reliable Smartwatch
I purchased the Galaxy Watch 8 and I'm very happy with it. The design is sleek, lightweight, and comfortable to wear all day. Health and fitness features work well, and the battery lasts about a full day with regular use. Overall, it's great smartwatch for everybody use, and I would definitely recommend it to Android users.

Unfortunately the only feature that is accurate is the time of day and the timers. None of the other features are accurate. I had a g4 before and I read the marketing stuff that said the g8 was more accurate but much to my dismay it's not.

Galaxy Watch 8 Experience
Significant sleeker upgrade from previous version I owned. Like the brighter display; colors are intense. Battery life is OK. No need to charge it everyday! Playing around with different watch faces and exploring a multitude of apps, tiles and notifications. Can't find a pickleball Samsung fitness app to choose though.

5 star's? Maybe
I like it ?? i traded in my Galaxy watch ultra (2024) for this one there was something I just didn't like about it but i really like this new one (Galaxy watch 8) it basically does everything the Ultra does except it's smaller, lighter and in my option looks better than the Ultra so im really satisfied with this one maybe ill keep it longer then a year or maybe not depends on what the next years model is all about lol I actually wish they would come out with a new Galaxy watch Active i really liked that one and was probably my favorite out of all of them but we're have to see

A near perfect wearable
I really love my Galaxy 8 watch I've got it custom configured for a mix of health and sports monitoring activities. Communicates nicely with my Galaxy S24plus. Despite my loving this watch, I'm growing tired of having to charge the battery everyday and a half, you would think at this price, this class of Galaxy watches should last at least 3 to 5 days on a charge.

Great Features and GPS for Golfing Apps
Recently added the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 (44MM Bluetooth version) to my watch collections. I also own the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro and Galaxy Watch 6 (traded in the Watch 4). I use the watches for various purposes (Watch 5 Pro for everyday, Watch 6 for biking which replaced the Watch 4, and the Watch 8 for golf which replaced the Watch 6).
One of my favorite activities is golfing and the reason I purchase the Watch 6 a couple years ago was to use it while golfing with the Golfshot App on the watch. Got tired of having to put a Garmin watch on every time I went to golf. With the app you can use the GPS on the watch, after setting up the round on your phone you open the app on the watch, put watch in airplane mode to get your distances from the watch and NOT the phone. When I read the specs on the Watch 8, I knew I needed it as my new golf watch because of the upgraded GPS. Used it for the first time the other day and WOW, what a difference. Previously with the Watch 6 the GPS would bounce around for 5 - 10 seconds until it locked in my distance. Now with the Watch 8 as soon as I looked at the screen the distance was LOCKED IN and did not move. On top of that this course has GPS on the carts and the distances where exactly the same, EVERYTIME. I will now use the Watch 6 for my biking activities replacing the Watch 4 that I traded in (thank you Samsung for the trade-in offer).
The reason I only gave it 4 stars is the battery life. As many reviews have discussed the battery life is less than expected considering the larger battery. After a full charge I turned the watch on before I left for golf. Including time driving to and from the course (and lunch after the round) was about 7.5 hours. When I got home the battery was below 50%. Granted I was using the GPS for the 4.5 hours on the golf course, but clearly I would not be able to get two rounds out of a single charge. Probably barely get 24 hours from a charge without the golf. I currently use the Watch 5 Pro as my everyday watch and get about 3 days from a single charge depending on use.
Hopefully Samsung will figure out how to get better battery life from the larger batteries, not diminished life due to added features and functions.
Overall, I love the watch so far and it works for the purpose I intended. Looking forward to many more rounds of golf with my new purchase. If Samsung can figure out how to get better battery life, I may look at stepping up from my Watch 5 Pro, but for now I will be happy with my watch setup and using the Watch 8 exclusively for my golfing rounds.

Lighter, larger screen & lower profile than my last G5 with much crisper screen. Lots of features & I love the Samsung Health app to help me track my readings, exercise, water & food intake, and much more. I do prefer the old band on the G5 but Im getting used to the new siliconized rubber adjustable band. Well worth the money

Watch 8 review
I have always been a user of Samsung watches. I have tried an occasional off brand but i just did not like them. Im not well versed at what all these watches can or cannot do and do not see much difference between my new Watch 8 vs my Watch 4.
I will say the battery life does seem to be better so far and the watch face itself is bigger. I do dislike that there is a limited variety of watch faces and wish there was a bigger free selection.

The Perfect Christmas Gift
It was purchased for my wife for Christmas. She has an older Galaxy watch and the battery was not lasting a whole day. When she received it, she loved it instantly and even more so that she comments on it every other day on how she loves it and the functionality. As the title it was the perfect Christmas gift plus the trade-in program was great too. Very easy to do by sending in an older model (as long as it is functioning) and thats it. Worth the purchase and an easy transaction

He loves it!
This was a gift for my brother, a guy who doesn't buy himself anything and is really appreciative when you get him something he needs, but didn't know he needed it. Lol. Needless to say, my little brother loves his watch! He works out four days a week on top of wanting to be healthier (since he's entering middle age) and I thought this would be perfect for him. He loves that you can build your personal work out routines, and the watches ability to keep track and alert him of when to change sets. He also said he loves the convenience of the gestures. They took a few days to work consistently for him, but once they did, life became a bit easier. So 5 stars from the guy who's nonchalant but greatful.
