While it's great to see that you love the new design of the Watch8, it's a shame that you aren't thoroughly enjoying it. We believe that the material of the straps is robust, however, we can't guarantee that they will remain damage free in all scenarios. While our watches do come with a strap, you also have the option to purchase a different band during the checkout process, if that would work better for you. You then still have the added extra of the free one that comes with the watch, in case it ever comes in handy. All of our customers are free to purchase the product that best suits them, and we're always here to help if you have any pre-purchase questions that will help you have the very best experience. Please reach out to our Support Teams with further information about the issues you are experiencing with performance and the concerns you have about the heart rate sensors, and they will be happy to help. You can find their contact details and operating hours here: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/contact/ This is a magnificent watch, so we want to ensure that it is working as it should be. We're sure that in time, it will earn five full stars! ^SK at Samsung Support

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on the Galaxy Watch8, Carlie. Your feedback is really important to us, as it helps us to better meet your needs. Battery drain can be caused by high screen brightness, unused trackers, background apps continuously running, apps running on old software, continuous GPS use, and an Always On Display. The following link contains more information and also remedies for this: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/reduced-battery-life-on-your-samsung-galaxy-watch/ For the low vibration, we'd recommend firstly checking for software updates. You can update your Watch8 either directly from the smartwatch or through your connected mobile device using the Galaxy Wearable app. To update on your connected device, go to the Galaxy Wearable app > Watch settings > Watch software update > Tap Download and install. To update on the watch itself, go to Settings > Software update > Tap Download and install. The following link from our Canadian colleagues contains more helpful steps that you can carry out to resolve the issue: https://www.samsung.com/ca/support/mobile-devices/samsung-smartwatch-manage-sound-and-vibration/ We're really glad to hear that you're enjoying all the other fantastic features of your smartwatch, and we hope this information is helpful to you. ^EW at Samsung Support

We would also like to reassure you that the intelligent battery of this watch continuously learns your usage patterns and routine to maximise its battery life the more you use it.

Thanks for taking the time to leave a great 5-star review of your Galaxy Watch8, Christina. We're elated that you are happy with the look of the watch and the display and other features! With the wireless charging pad, the watch is not designed to be used with this pad; this is why the curved strap will not lie flat against the wireless charging pad, but you could remove the straps to achieve this. However, we will pass on this feedback for future developments with the watch series. KF at Samsung Support

Thanks for taking the time to share your review, Ahhamed. We really appreciate hearing your thoughts and feedback, as this allows us to help you and to resolve any issues you're experiencing. We're sorry to hear that you've experienced some issues with the heart rate, activity tracking, and temperature sensors on your Galaxy Watch8, along with the battery life. This isn't what we'd expect, as the innovative Watch8 is built with performance and reliability at the forefront. For the sensors, we'd recommend giving the back of your smartwatch a wipe with a clean cloth. Put the watch back on, making sure it's in the correct position; wear your smartwatch snugly, but not too tightly, on your arm above your wrist. We'd also like you to check for software updates, and you can do so on your mobile device by going to the Galaxy Wearable app > Watch settings > Watch software update > Install now or Install overnight. The software update should also help with the battery life, and the following link contains many more helpful troubleshooting steps for this: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/reduced-battery-life-on-your-samsung-galaxy-watch/ If the problems persist, please reach out to our friendly Support Teams who are on hand and ready to help.

We're glad to hear that you think the Galaxy Watch8 is a perfect gadget overall, and we’d love for you to make the most of its battery life just as much as everything else it offers, Mo. The Galaxy Watch8 features an intelligent battery that gradually optimises its performance as it learns and adapts to your usage patterns and daily routine. In the meantime, you can extend battery life immediately by disabling the Always On Display option if it isn’t needed. You can do this by going to: Settings > Display > Disable the option 'Always On Display'. You can also follow the steps in this link, which we are confident will be very helpful in improving your watch’s battery life even further: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/reduced-battery-life-on-your-samsung-galaxy-watch/ If you need more help with making the most of your device, please don’t hesitate to contact our Support Teams.
