Continuing regrets
I very much regret having replaced my Watch6 with the Watch8 Classic. It is silver, not black. Large and clunky. The band is crude.

Great smart watch
Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is more evolutionary than revolutionary. Although it is progressing in the right direction, it can include some unique features and capabilities that attract new users.
The watch feels ever more closer to wearing a regular watch but with great tech. It can do more with style and stunning watchfaces

Howdy Rus,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic. We appreciate your candor as we make every effort to improve the design and functionality of our product line. If the 46mm Galaxy Watch8 Classic feels too large for your liking, check out the Galaxy Watch8! This device is offered in a 40mm case and a 44mm case. It may be better suited for the look and feel you're going for. Also check out your compatible watch bands to create your Bespoke look. For your convenience, I have included those resources below. If you would like to share any other feedback with us or if you would like further assistance, please feel free to contact Samsung Support. Thank you for being a valued Samsung customer.

Good day Gloria,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic. Your constructive feedback allows us to make improvements with our product line. Samsung offers a 12-month warranty on your device for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. We also offer Samsung Care+ which can be added to eligible devices. It's similar to an extended warranty plan and an insurance package combined that provides protection beyond the standard manufacturer's warranty. It could cover events like accidental damage, mechanical breakdowns, and potentially theft and loss. Samsung Care+ offers you the ultimate peace of mind when it comes to protecting your investment. The battery life on the Galaxy Watch8 Classic varies depending on your usage. With a 445mAh battery, it offers up to 30 hours of use on Always on Display (AOD) mode. If you're experiencing less than ideal battery life, please take a moment to check out "Reduced battery life on your Samsung smart watch" to learn what factors, if any, may be impacting your device. If you would like to share additional feedback with us or if you would like any further assistance afterward, please let us know by contacting Samsung Support at your leisure.

Excellent Samsung quality
This is my third smart watch and by far the best. Excellent quality, accurate metrics and it really looks nice too. I love the rotating bezel to navigate through menues.

Great watch so far!
I've only had the watch for three weeks and have really enjoyed it. It is very easy to see and is very functional.

Great Watch but also great disappointment - SHM
Samsung Health Monitor - BP and ECG only works with Samsung Phone, change that, and I BELIEVE you will own the Digital Watch Arena under Android.

Great functionality and options
Comfortable watch with great functionality and just what I was looking for. The display is flexible, based on your needs and has numerous options. Has fabulous fitness options and does great EKG readout you can send to your MD. Easy connectivity with your phone and gives you everything you need in a smartwatch. Battery needs charging more often than Iike but I turn powe...

Hey Alejandro,
Thank you for finding the time to share your thoughts with us about your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic. Your feedback is invaluable to us. We're happy to hear that you're overall pleased with the purchase of your device. As you know, the Galaxy Watch8 Classic does not offer blood pressure tracking at this time in the U.S. due to FDA regulations.

Let us know if you would like any further assistance after reviewing the resources shared by reaching out to Samsung Support. Thanks for being a steadfast Samsung customer.

Very Pleased With Galaxy 8 Classic
I have enjoyed using my Galaxy 8 Classic for the last few weeks. Good battery life. Good tracking. Easy setup and integration (disclosure, this is paired with a Galaxy Note 20, so both in the Samsung ecosystem!). Like the metrics, sleeping score, snoring detection, heart rate, etc. This is good for understanding body consistency, etc.
