                          I've been using mobile phones for as long as they were available. I bought my first Samsung phone just over a year ago and after getting used to the different platform, I plan to stay with Samsung. I bought the Samsung Tablet and recently went all in and committed by buying the Galaxy Watch and Samsung Pro4 Ear Buds. I love the watch because of its look and feel when I wear it. It looks and feels like a real watch that does amazing things! I personally love the fact that I can split my face to two different time zones. It's not just the products that are great; their online service is impeccable. Highly recommend Samsung for all products.

                          I fell in love with my boyfriend Samsung S24 in 2024. Since then, we had two babies together. Earbuds 3 Pro and now Watch 8 40mm Bluetooth + LTE. My baby didn't disappoint me, instead made me proud. I am still figuring out all the features. But very happy so far. Beautiful sexy design, looks sleek even on my thin arm, specifically love the two finger pinch dismissal of notifications, side button customisation, app notification settings. I haven't used the health tracking yet. I would have loved to be able to manually lock the watch with the wrist detection turned on. But now I need to turn it off to be able to lock it manually.

                          This watch is a perfect match with my S25+. I love the design. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is thin, light, and feels good to wear. Its screen is very bright, so you can see it clearly outside. It has many health tools like sleep tracking, running help and it reminds me everytime that I have to stay active or that I have been staying in a place for too long The battery lasts about one day and takes a while to charge. Overall, it’s a nice smartwatch with smart features, but the battery is just okay. I wish it could lasts longer so I don't have to charge it every night. But still it looks so good on my hand. Always a samsung fan.

                          I’ve been using the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 (44mm LTE) and I really like it. It’s slim, light, and feels great on my wrist. It’s more comfortable than other smartwatches I’ve tried and fits under my sleeves with no problem. The screen is bright and clear, so checking messages and notifications is easy. The touch bezel is smooth to use and doesn’t make the watch bulky. The watch face looks clean and modern. I like the health features—heart rate and workout tracking are very accurate. The new Galaxy AI also makes it simple to manage notifications and keep track of my fitness. Overall, this is my favorite smartwatch so far. It’s easy, comfortable, and works really well.

                          The latest Samsung smart watch is not only just stylish but it performs very impressively aswell, the screen is a real standout to previous watches, nice and vibrant and easy to read. The new Gemini integration works very well, everything is so easy to use and measurements, sleep, steps etc seem very accurate once compared with other smart watches on the market. Battery life I'm averaging just over 2 days which for me is fine as I like to charge my devices upto 100% daily so all is good in that department. Nice variation of watch faces and customisations to really make this watch unique to you and your personality. Overall a really nice watch and have encountered zero problems since my purchase.

                          I bought the watch8 about six months ago, replacing my watch 5, and found the watch 8 slow. I wanted to use YT music while I work out at the gym and not have my phone. Sitting on the work out bench selecting my work out routine then my YT work out music the YT seems to freeze on a black screen. I always have to fiddle with it to eventually see my play list. Yes I downloaded my playlist. I wanted to use the LTE but my phone carrier Rogers charges are too high. I can't seem to get the BMI to work goes to 99% then seems revert back to the widget. Also keeps missing counts when I'm benching. I have reset the watch and still does the same. For the price I expected better performance. The screen is amazing.

                          Packed into a sleek, compact design is a powerful array of sensors, smart AI features, a fluid user interface, and surprisingly strong battery life—there’s a lot to love here. It looks fantastic on the wrist, with a design that’s both stylish and distinctive. From the moment I unboxed it to setting it up and using it daily, the experience was smooth and intuitive—far better than I expected. Pairing with my phone was quick and hassle-free. Best of all, the LTE version I chose lets me stay connected without being tethered to my smartphone. Honestly, I wish I’d made the switch sooner! To cap it all, the LTE version I ordered allows me to free myself from the clutches of my smartphone. Wish I got one sooner!

                          I like the look of the new design, but I don't think the material is great as easily damaged. Poor judgement on only giving a certain strap size on each device. They should be just the watch face and customer chooses, as women can't then buy the bigger watch face as they have smaller wrists. So having to pay out more money to get a strap. Performance currently seems slow, not sure if it's building up, but currently not great. I think the heartbrate sensors maybe better. But I think samsung should deal with Whoop, as there sensors and tracking for health are far more advanced

                          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

                          I am very impressed with my new watch. It connected to my Samsung phone as soon as I turned it on, and it set up very easily. I have found it easy to work around the menus and get it set up as I want to. I have found the features really helpful in monitoring my health and exercise, and in encouraging me to think about what I eat and what I do. My only issue is that this watch did not come with a C plug, so I was not able to use it until I purchased one separately. The charge also does not last much more than a day, so I need to find a time in my day to charge it regularly so it does not run out. I find this watch comfortable to wear and there are other straps and protective covers available to personalise it.

                          I bought my Watch 8 about 2 months ago after spending a lot of time comparing and trying different watches. I have been using samsung devices for over 20years, and again they exceeded my expectations. Absolutely love it. It is ticking all the boxes for my fitness and essential use. Its helped me stay on track with my goals and made my dailt tasks, reminders and planning super easy. Definately a super happy customer and very glad i decided to choose Samsung! I have recomended this to 2 of my friends and my partner who have all made the decision to buy one as well.

                          I am enjoying this watch. However, if wearing it overnight also, which I do, I barely get a full day out of the battery life. Garmin watches do pretty much what Samsung do, but battery life is fantastic. My son and daughter both have Garmin, so I feel battery life could be improved on Samsung. The buzz vibration intensity is very low. All settings are turned to the highest possible setting, I have been through the with a Samsung advisor, there is nothing else I can turn on, or up, to increase the vibration. I sometimes miss messages now, because of this, my previous, older classic model Samsung watch, had a stronger vibration which was much better. Everything else with the watch is fine, just the above 2 issues.

                          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

                          I got this watch to test against the Samsung watch 6 and it's definitely an improvement and I wasn't unhappy with it. I think I've tried out all of features except for the running options. I don't run. The only thing I had an issue with was the hiking function on one occasion in that it paused and didn't restart so instead of a 5 hour hike it tracked 37 minutes. There doesn't seem to be an auto-pause on hiking but it thankfully was only a one off. I do love the shape of the screen and that a lot more items on the screen compared to the 6. The battery lasts about the same time comparing to the previous models but this is on full power rather than battery saving mode. The watch 8 charges a lot quicker. Well worth the money.

                          Good but not great as it seems to be countkng steps when im not even moving. I do strongly recommend that a screen protector and clear soft watch face case be included in the box. It is pretty bad when you have to be extremely careful not to get screen scratched or damaged due to these things not being included. At least if it was included then I wouldn't have to stress so much about trying to purchase something online and it arriving as soon as possible to protect my extremely expensive nice fancy smart watch that should come with it in the first place.

                          I had a galaxy watch 5, then moved over to a Pixel 3, which I thought was quite good until I got the galaxy watch 8 40mm. The other two are more like sun dials compared to this. Battery is only let down, especially when you wear at night to monitor sleep. When you get up you have to charge it. performance is excellent and the display is awesome - again comparing it to the others owned. Would I recommend this watch?--- Definitely without hesitation. Just from the health side(blood pressure, ecg, heart rate etc etc) I have several conditions that I need to keep an eye on rates pressures and so on. I set the watch in comparison from doctors machine and it is very accurate. Apart from that It looks great and is so comfy to wear. Get one - you won't regret it

                          I got my Watch 8 alongside my S26 Ultra as a promotional offer from my carrier, and I must say I'm really happy with it! Coming from a Watch 7, the jump isn't massive, however, I really enjoy the new health features, those being Antioxidant Index and Vascular Load. I love understanding how my body works, and to have everything I need for that in a small package that sits on my wrist is amazing! I can get a couple days out of it before needing to charge, which is perfect for me. Overall, I am really happy with this watch!

                          I have had several new name smart watches before and they were fine they did what I needed that they didn't impress they were just functional and needed to be charged on a regular basis which is always the downside this new Samsung Galaxy watch 8 surprised me on so many levels it's comfort it's functionality it's battery life and it's viewability it's very clear and easy to read I am very happy with this watch and I'm equally impressed by its ability to independently connect to Bluetooth speakers and via its own immediate centre so they don't actually have to have my phone in my pocket I can have my watch on my arm and listen to music on my headset and nobody's any of the wiser I love this watch I would recommend it to anybody it's very comfortable to wear all day

                          I had the Active 2 lte for many years & bought this as an upgrade. The display, battery life, and connectivity are far more superior. Being able to use AI/Google from my wrist is awesome. Getting my blood pressure & ECG anytime is great. I also like all the options to customize the watch face & how easy it is to operate. However, I do miss when my watch would let me know via speaker how my exercise, or walk is progressing. Not sure why that was taken away. Regardless, I could never go a day without this watch. Love it!

                          The new, "squircle" design of watch8 is very innovative and esthetically pleasing. The display is very bright and a plethora of customised, useful info fits in. I'm amazed with the clarity of notification images received through our security system cameras. Connection with Galaxy phone is seamless as always with crystal-clear phone calls without separate SIM. There are even more health metrics added so there is no excuse for not taking care of one's health.The new, curved strap is very comfortable indeed, however, there is no way to lay it flat against the wireless charging pad... Samsung has managed to integrate AI in the Watch8 series, a truly unique feat! Watch8 is not just a pretty face but a remarkable digital companion to help us navigate through our hectic lives!

                          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

                          Initially I thought its just a watch. Having never owned a smartwatch before I wasn't sure what to expect. But after I a few days I realised they're amazing. I've been using this watch to help with my weightless journey. Witch has been a great aid . I've tracked my steps every day, logged my water intake. Logged my meals. I've lost 6lb with the help of this watch. I love the fact you can set daily goals to achieve its really helped motivate me. I also suffer with a heart condition called superventtriculartachycardia , and the egg on this watch has helped me log and catch episodes of this which is a great aid. Every day I'm discovering new things on this watch and I love it. At first I did find it quite big on my wrist, but got used to it and I am actually greatful for the big screen

                          This is an upgrade from my Watch 4, I wanted something smaller mostly for the health tracking as a nightshift worker and keen swimmer. The watch is comfortable to wear and the perfect size for me. As only a small watch strap was included with the purchase I've bought a larger band in a funky colour which is comfortable and practical. The functionality of the watch works well, I've added my cards and used it for texting alongside reading notifications. The health features are mostly working well however today whilst swimming i noticed that it was adding lengths to my total pool lengths, that I hadn't actually achieved which is a bit disappointing. The battery life I'm also finding slightly disappointing as it only lasts for around 14 hours so I can't go from day to night shift without charging.

                          This is my first smart watch. I love some of the features like the heart rate monitor, step count, and getting notifications (making me my own human Tamagotchi). I don't like that you need to download 3 separate apps to use it. Some of the functions and app stuff is confusing to navigate and figure out. I really don't like the band as it doesn't breathe at all, but have ordered a different band to try. Compared with other smart watches the price was more reasonable for this one.

                          I am delighted with my upgrade from the samsung watch 6 to the 8 44m Lte, the new edgy screen is brilliant the added running coach will help me massively on my fitness journey and the strap seems much more comfortable, not as 'sticky' or stiff. I have worn it for over a week now the only down point is the battery, I dont seem to be getting a full day out of it before it needs charged again, al which is disappointing considering my watch 6 lasts at least 2 days.

                          Just upgraded from the Watch 5 to the Watch 8, and I’ve got to say the comfort is a huge step up. I could never wear the 5 to sleep, it was just too uncomfortable. But the Watch 8 is easy to forget it's even on. I’ve actually been able to use the sleep tracking now, which is a nice bonus. Battery life, though, is kind of meh. It gets me through the day, but I was hoping for a bit more improvement there. Still, overall I’m pretty happy with the upgrade.

                          I've been procrastinating about purchasing the Samsung watch for sometime now, worried it would be too bulky & distracting me. I previously had an Ourar ring a few years backnthat helped me monitor health, stress etc. I made the decision recently to purchase the Samsung watch a few weeks back after being locked out of my Mums house without my phone & no way to contact her to let me in while she was out. Had I had the watch I could have phined her instead of sitting in her carport for hours waiting for her to get home 🤣🤣 I was pleasantly surprised with my new watch when it arrived. Much more conditioning than i had thought it would be & its motivated me to move more. I've just started taking up swimming laps, walking more with great indo from the health features. Very happy I purchased, only wish I had not waited so long!

                          I am still discovering the features on this watch as there are so many. I bought it for health reasons as I want to monitor my fitness and sleep. I love how it is paired to the app and I can check any progress from my phone...it makes for a very easy to read companion in my day. I'm not great at technical stuff but have had no problems with learning and accessing information...excellent guide and easy to access. So far am thrilled with the watch.

                          I received my Samsung Galaxry 8 watch when I upgraded my ph9ne last year. The watch is awesome! The functions are mind blowing. I'm wearing a device that talks to me about so many different aspects on my health - good, not so good and hints and ideas how to improve. It even alerts me to 'move' which is invaluable to someone who hyperfocus' and can literally barely move for 3-4 hours. I was completely unaware how it would impact my life

                          I purchased this watch a week ago and have been mainly happy with it. Unfortunately, I find the blood pressure monitor is not accurate. I've checked the reading on the watch a number of times against a proper blood pressure monitor and the readings are never the same. Also, the sleep results are difficult to understand and I find this quite frustrating . The most annoying thing is the watchband. In order for the watch to take proper measurements, you have to wear the watch 2cm above the wrist bone. This makes the watch very uncomfortable to wear and not very attractive on the wrist. Its important that the watch is tight enough on the wrist to take the readings but this makes the watch really uncomfortable to wear. All in all, I love the watch but hope they take comfort into account for future design and make it easier to understand the results.

                          The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is a fantastic smartwatch that delivers on its promises. It's more comfortable, has a stunning display, and packs a punch with its new health and fitness features and AI integration. For anyone in the Android ecosystem looking for a premium and feature-rich smartwatch that truly enhances their daily life and health journey, I wholeheartedly recommend the Galaxy Watch 8. It's a joy to use!

                          Looks and feels great. Thought the 40mm might have been too small but is a good fit and enough screen space for me. Plenty of features and performs quick without any feeling of lag. Can be run without the phone by using the LTE connectivity for calls, messages, music etc when doing a work out but needs to be fully charged as the battery may not last a full workout. My biggest complaint is the battery life, if you use it to monitor sleep and dont run in battery saver mode its hard to get 24 hours out of it, if your day invovled sleep monitoring plus a work out. Using it with blurtooth on and phone always around is only way to push that battery past 24 hours. If you wanted a smart watch to monitor your workouts and health this is great. If you wanted a watch that can be used like a phone and go workouts without the phone, the battery life may give disappointment.

                          I purchased this watch ideally for all of my daily activity logs, it has been nothing short of fantastic. The new features include tracking my sleep paired with Energy level readings, sleep latency log, stress readings, and my favourite feature is the new AI feature! It also has a great battery life which is important. Highly recommend this product if you are looking for a watch that'll do everything ✨️

                          I got my Galaxy Watch as part of a promo. I was excited for it. In the process of setting it up through the Wear app, I was disappointed to find out that I can't attach my debit card to my watch. I can use it on my phone but apparently only credit cards are supported via the watch. Overall it's great and I get loads of compliments but the lack of that feature is disappointing to say the least.

                          Powered by the latest Exynos W1000 chip and Wear OS, it’s snappy and fluid. • Comes with Google Gemini AI built-in, allowing voice commands • Health tracking is top-tier: ECG, blood oxygen, heart rate, sleep stages, and even antioxidant levels. • The new Now Bar widget makes multitasking smoother—quick access to timers, workouts, and more. Worth the price, highly recommended.

                          I bought my watch about a week ago and wish that I had done so earlier. The battery life is so much better than my previous watch 5 . They watch sits so much better and flatter on the wrist than the watch5 and being thinner looks so much better. It is so easy pair to my phone which made it faster to begin using the watch. Im so happy I decided to upgrade to this watch.

                          Last smart watch I had from samsung was the Watch4. All the other designs after felt cheaply made and not that much new added. I was a bit sceptical about this one, but the built feels premium. The 4G also makes a HUGE difference. It's like having a mini phone when you leave your phone behind! It's definitely worth the extra money. The addition of Gemini is also great!

                          I have been wearing this constantly for the last week but am really still to form an opinion on it. This has probably been impacted by the ridiculously short watch band, I have to have it on the last hole in the strap and it still feels like my wrist is being choked. I have ordered an aftermarket watchband and maybe then I will begin to enjoy it features a bit more

                          Getting this thing to work using 5G cellular on Rogers wireless has been impossible. It refuses to find a network plan even though Rogers has reset the account multiple times and I have reset my watch multiple times. I keep getting error code 6 over and over. I can still use the thing over Wi-Fi, but if I ever forget my phone it's basically going to be a paperweight.

                          I've had Galaxy watches from the original classic to the 4 classic.... The 8 was a gift from my wife and I am not disappointed. Feature rich and simply slick. The 44mm size fits just right and depending on the watchface, battery lasts 2+ days. Of course, widget heavy dials will chew through your battery faster than you can blink...

                          This watch is absolutely brilliant, it looks so classy. I got the silver faced watch with a white strap. For anyone that has had a reaction to either watches or straps, I was that person. This watch no reaction to either. The watch face is so clear and really responsive to touch, it has a really slim profile. The apps you can use for well thought out, you can have more that one tile on each screen, which is really good. I think I have 17 tiles between the screens. Samsung have definitely got a winner with this watch. You can have a esim with the LTE model, not sure that it is worth it though. That is the only down side that I have found. It was very easy to set up, it copied all of my things from the old watch using the Samsung wearable app. It charges up quickly and even getting emails on the watch it still keeps charge for around 36 hours. After a few weeks of use I only have good things to say about this watch.

Well this watch has been a but of a life saver, it picked up I have moderate to severe sleep apnea. I expect my BP will reduce now I am addressing my sleep. I would never of picked this up, without this watch

                          I brought this for my birthday because I had an older model. Forever a galaxy user but this far exceeded my expectations. I mainly use it for productivity, texts, calls, emails etc... But the health features are amazing too, it's even got me to start being more active. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for an upgrade and or your first smart watch

                          I bought this mainly to use while golfing but have loved all the health tracking features that have massively helped me be aware of and work on my overall health. The UI is intuative and easy to use, I've had no trouble setting everything up. Only down side is I need to charge daily but doesnt help that I have all the feature on because they're so good!

                          I have never owned a smart watch, Samsung is definitely the only brand I would ever own. My favourite part is being able to put photos of my grandbabies on the face. And when out and about, being able to answer the watch/call rather than dig out my brand new S26 ultra, is definitely very cool. I don't think I could go back to a normal watch again.

                          I bought the Galaxy Watch 8 expecting reliable sensor performance, but the experience has been disappointing. The sensors never delivered accurate results — heart rate, activity tracking, and temperature were all inconsistent. On top of that, the battery drains much faster than expected and barely lasts a full day. The overall quality is not good.

                          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. You can find our contact details and opening times here: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/contact/ We hope this information is useful, and we're looking forward to you enjoying everything that your gorgeous smartwatch has to offer from now on. ^EW at Samsung Support

                          Takes a lot of time to be able to work the phone and it's apps. There is a lot of info on thd which I found irrelevant but unable to delete. The ECG app is good, easy to action and the reporting on both watch and phone is fast and understandable. Get help with your watch to set it up unless you actually know what you are doing.

                          I’m really happy with my new Galaxy Watch 8. It looks much sleeker and more refined than my previous Galaxy Watch, and I love how much thinner it feels on the wrist. Battery life has noticeably improved, lasting longer throughout the day without needing a top-up. Overall, it's a solid upgrade in both style and performance.

                          This would of been a really good watch if it was not for having to charge the battery every 2nd day. I have the power saver on and I still have to charge it every 2nd day. The connectivity is somewhat good, I can't go too far from my phone in the house without disconnecting. I love the design and the very easy to use.

                          First time owning a smart watch and I really like. Super comfortable and screen looks good. It aesthetically looks good as a squircle. It works well, touchscreen is accurate. So far sensors seem to be easy to use and pick up useful data. Battery life i can only say for now it's lasting a day which is very 👍

                          Im very annoyed i got this and this is why. I have had my watch for less than a week and have noticed that battery life is poor. It drains very quick and im unable to enjoy the watch if im out and about. The rest is perfect but i regret buying it as i have to charge it x2 a day with only just minimum use.

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.

                          I bought this watch a few weeks ago to replace my old Samsung watch. The design in quite nice. It looks professional as well as elegant. Happy with the speed and connectivity to my phone. I got the smaller size and am happy with that as it fits on my wrist quite nicely. Very happy with this watch so far!

                          I bought this yesterday and the battery is absolutely terrible. Doesn't even last more than 5-6 hours where they claim that it lasts upto 40 hours with AOD off. With AOD off, and with LTE connectivity, it lasts max 6 hours. If you use a wristwatch and doesn't last a day (8-10 hours) what's the point?

                          After having the Samsung Gear 2 watch for many years I finally updated to the latest version Galaxy watch 8. It's unbelievable. Beautiful looking watch and does everything, plus more, of what I was looking for in a watch. I just love the new easy clip on, clip off strap bands. A fantastic feature.

                          Battery life is waaaaayyy too short. All other features are good to great, however having to charge the device every day to get accurate and diverse measurements is inconvenient and does not allow for comprehensive inclusion of data. Watch dies during an activity or in the middle of the night.

                          Order my Fold 7 and it came with a voucher. I had a watch 6 that I loved and didn't need to replace, and the watch 8 didn't appeal to me. Was I wrong.. upgraded because I could, and wow. The watch 8 has the finer touches that my watch 6 was missing. Glad I upgraded and love the watch.

                          Samsung galaxy watch 8 LTE What an upgrade from the samsung watch6, great new features, yet to use the 'running app' in samsung health but im sure this will be usefull on my fitness journey. Watch is very comfortable to wear love the new square frame round the watch face, gives it an 'edgy' look, the straps are alot more comfotable the outer rim of the screen seems to have a bit of extra protection which I love. But the battery is TERRIBLE I have never had to charge a watch so much, this doesn't last a full day and im really disappointed with the battery life. I have the LTE version this time although im yet to go out without my phone, but its nice to not have the constant notifications everytime the watch disconnects from my phone when im in another room. Definitely would reccomend but I would like to see a fix for the battery life, not sure it will last more than 3 hours with the running app open.

                          I would have given the galaxy 8 watch 40mm 5 stars if I wasn't for the battery life, I think it barely lasts a day otherwise the watch itself is feature rich, customisable and integrates well with my s26. Maybe go for the bigger watch sizes if you're able to get the bigger baterry.

                          I got my Galaxy watch8 with the Optus pre-order promotion. And i must say i never realised what i was missing until i received it and set it up. Makes it so much easier to know that i can get notifications and access to my what my phone has on it when its not in my hand.

                          Received for my birthday after my cherished series 4 died. I am really enjoying the new look of the 8 but would love it to come in rose gold. I am enjoying the longer life battery as I always struggled with my others running low. Easy to set up, easy as usual to use.

                          Had my Galaxy Watch 8 for just over a week now and I love it. Easy to use, great features and the battery goes well into a second day even with sleep monitoring. The design is very comfortable as it does not feel bulky. After seeing mine, my partner got one as well

                          Loved the watch and all it's features. The best thing about watch is that you get all the notifications on your hand. You can track your health status which eventually helped me to increase my walking and to have healthy habits and lifestyle. Happy customer.

                          This was a gift, replacing my 7 year old fitbit. I find the watch really comfortable to wear, even in bed. The screen is easy to read without glasses and outdoors. I like the emergency call features. So far it has been intuitive to use and responsive.

                          Recently had an accident, this has everything I need and more, no more panicking if I fall, or stressing that I fogot my phone. Battery life is shorter than I expected and it should have a connection for power, not just cord. Overall very happy though.

                          I've had the watch about a month now, my previous Galaxy watch worked perfectly nut it was time for an update, the new Galaxy watch has a lot more features, is faster, lighter and in my opinion really good looking. I'd be happy to recommend the watch.

                          I got my watch and phone in December and love them both. But I do have a problem, it's of my own making. My phone and watch were synced but I made some changes and now my watch no longer receives phone calls or messages. I'd love some help.

                          I recently upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 to the Galaxy Watch 8 (44mm LTE) and I’m really pleased with the change. The larger watch face makes it much easier to use, especially when I’m on the move, and the new Samsung Health features have been a great addition. The watch feels surprisingly light and comfortable despite its larger size, thanks to the flatter bottom surface that sits plush against the skin. I’ve yet to fully test its GPS accuracy on a run, but I’m looking forward to seeing how it performs. I did run into some difficulty setting up the LTE function, as it seems tied to using the same number as my phone, which doesn’t allow for a separate watch contract. I’m not sure if that’s a Samsung-specific issue, but it’s worth noting. Overall, I’m happy with my purchase and would recommend it, especially if you’re upgrading from an older model—you can definitely notice the difference. For women or anyone with smaller wrists, I’d suggest the 40mm version for everyday wear, while the 44mm is fantastic for workouts and activity tracking.

                          Writing I've been using the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 for a while now, and I'm genuinely impressed with it. The watch feels premium on the wrist, and the display is bright, sharp, and easy to read in any lighting conditions. Navigation is smooth and responsive, with apps opening quickly and no noticeable lag. One of my favorite features is the health and fitness tracking. The sleep tracking provides useful insights, and the activity tracking has been accurate during my workouts and daily walks. I also appreciate how well the watch integrates with my phone, making it easy to check notifications, control music, and stay connected without constantly reaching for my device. Battery life has been solid for my daily use, comfortably lasting through a busy day. Charging is also quick and convenient when needed. As a standalone smartwatch, it's an excellent device that balances style, performance, and health features extremely well. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase and would recommend it to anyone looking for a premium Android smartwatch. Rating: 5/5

                          I bought this to replace my watch6 classic. The battery life is better and the bands are much easier to change. But other than that I didn't feel like it's much better than my old watch, consideration the price was quite high.

                          I've had it for a week. It's much nicer to use than my galaxy4. The battery at least lasts all day. I wish more apps were compatible. My watch band is also peeling already, so trying to organise a replacement.

                          I got this watch as a part of a plan. It is very comfortable and operates very well. It has great features. Unfortunately, the battery lasts much less than my previous watch and can sometimes lose up to 20% in half an hour.

                          Really happy with my new Series 8 watch. Looks good with the leather band, and the display is really customisable. I like the new connectors for the band too, the watch lies very flat on your wrist and has a low profile.

                          This is definitely my favourite smartwatch that I have ever owned so far! This watch has plenty of features and is very durable. Having the added 4G connectivity helps a lot, especially when you leave your phone behind.

                          I've had older model galaxy watches and this is by far the best. The modern design is much more appealing, it feels less chunky. The features and displays are great. Only criticism is the battery drains very quickly.

                          The LTE feature is only compatible to Sumsung phones so it is not recommended if you don't have a Sumsung smart phone. Sumsung wanted to refund 80% only even this watch is not fully compatible with other smartphones.

                          The LTE function of the Galaxy Watch8 allows it to work independently without being connected to a phone, as it connects to the network via an eSIM, Jim. Some functions of the Galaxy Watch8 do work seamless with the Samsung Health App, which is an application that you'll find on a Samsung phone.

                          Watch included on my fold 7 purchase, if I bought it would still be worth it due to bp monitoring, not into watch but this made me wear it everyday, wished the watch classic has 40mm we'll see on watch 9, Cheers

                          Enjoying this watch and the features available. Always handy to do a quick check of notifications on the watch without having to check my phone. Tracking my health goals is really good and helps me stay on track

                          Have had the galaxy watch 8 for a few months. For the most part I love it. There have been some glitches. Like over heating, or it's too cold. Not tracking steps properly. Battery draining in one day or less.

                          I was VERY lucky to get the colour I wanted! The store showed no stock, but one was found out the back, so I am very happy with it. However, I still need to find someone to complete the set-up process for me.

                          I bought the watch several months ago. I was initially sorry that there was no "classic" version, but now I am very pleased with this version. It is light, has an excellent display, and great battery life.

                          Thec watch 8 is my update from watch 5 so a lot of difference, much more comfortable for 24hr wear. The screen is bright without glare, great sound and so easy to answer calls, receive messages and emails.

                          Happy with the Watch 8, but it seems to onstantly connect with my cell calls mid-conversation. Not sure why. Easy to to revert back, but it makes work calls harder. Everything else about it is perfect.

                          So far the watch is great, display is clear and responsive. While it is the 40mm, it's square design makes it a bit larger than my older version 5 overall, but despite this it feels sleeker than the 5.

                          I upgraded from my galaxy watch 4 once I upgraded my phone to the 25 ultra. I and very happy with the size and feel on the wrist and the new ai features. The new health features are great for tracking.

                          Was given the watch for my birthday and to help monitor my heart/health. It is easy to read, easy to set up. My old watch wasn't monitoring anymore and the features on the new model are more accurate.

                          It’s wonderful to hear the watch is helping you stay on top of your health and is easy to use. That peace of mind is exactly what these features are designed to provide.

                          I really like the watch. It's appearance is better than the watch6. I'm surprised that it doesn't take your temperature. The battery is better than the watch6. The watches are quite expensive.

                          I brought the Galaxy watch 8 not even a.minth again & I cannot make myself take it off my wrist. Absolutely the best samsung watch series so far & I should know I get everyone new one released.

                          I purchased this watch 8 4 weeks ago Really easy to set up initially but then it just gets better. When you get used to it the additional health features they are amazing. Love this watch

                          I love my watch, i wish the battery was a bit more durable but the recharge is super quick so it compensates. Great features and fitness companion. Easy to navigate as well and program apps.

                          It looked good and features like menus are great. Shame about battery life. Thought it would be better than my old 4 watch. Not much point having a watch that drains battery 3 times a day
