Nice little upgrade from my galaxy 4, my only grip is that a watch, that would really be for adults, only comes with a s/m, strap which is on the last hole, when really a m/l strap would be ideal, but they want you to spend an extra £44 (and you've already spent £330 on the watch) to get the different size strap

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

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 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

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.

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.

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.

We love to hear that you’ve been enjoying a good experience with your Galaxy Watch8, especially thanks to its long-lasting battery and brilliant health tracking features! We also appreciate you letting us know that the network connection can be inconsistent at times. There are a few quick steps that usually help improve network stability. Restarting the watch, checking that the mobile plan is fully activated in the Galaxy Wearable app and ensuring that the eSIM is showing as active on the watch itself can often restore a strong connection. It can also help to toggle Airplane mode, refresh the mobile network settings or try the watch in a different location in case the signal is weaker in your area. If the issue continues, we recommend resetting the network settings on the watch or contacting your mobile carrier to confirm that the eSIM is working correctly. Our support team is also here to help with any further checks.
