AyuriaProduct Ratings : 52025-07-30Product Ratings : 5Received on July 23 as promised and really happy to have my 7 year old Galaxy watch 42mm upgraded. Lots of new features and it did take me a lot of time to try out everything. Honestly, it is quite challenging to master all the new tricks and features without referring to the manual. Health features are great and I am being motivated to exercise, eat and sleep at a nice balance. The only thing I missed was the Daily Briefing from my old watch and I might not have this again on my new Watch8 with my S22 Ultra Samsung phone. I was being told by Samsung Support that the Daily Briefing (Now Bar content) on Watch8 only works with S25 and the newer models. BTW, blood pressure measurements between Watch8 and the cuffed BP monitor (Omron) for the last 3 days fluctuate a bit even with a daily calibration.

Less than 2 days. I knew that going in, but purchased anyways because of the extra features other watches don't have. What I am really annoyed about is that fact that I bought this watch under some false pretenses. In doing my research, I saw that I could download the Samsung watch app on my android phone to access all the features. Well, as it turns out, I can not use the specific features I bought this watch for as they are not compatible with my phone (EKG and bp). So I spent more money on a watch with a shorter battery life and unusable apps. This is very frustrating and I thought I had researched my purchase fully. This should be made clear in the information available. This issue will definitely influence any future purchasing choices I make.

I'm transitioning from a Chinese k52 watch ive had for 3 years. Upgraded: armor case, screen gorilla glass, titanium belt. The great about this $400 purchase: Size Screen resolution and visibility in day light The horrible and the disappointment: Battery 🔋 big disappointment only last 24hr. The software on the phone is absolutely horrible. Functions available based on the country you reside. The original wrist belt is garbage🗑 Overall cost vs value. Is not in this purchase.

NunciProduct Ratings : 52026-07-15Product Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

Helpful?Originally posted on Samsung AustraliamattacProduct Ratings : 32025-08-11 StaffordshireProduct Ratings : 3The watch strap is such a shame - I have had the watch all of one week and the strap is already worn and discoloured... I have done perhaps 6 hours of exercise in that time and worn it for sleep tracking. How can you market a watch the be good for sleep tracking and fitness, but sell it with a band that discolours after 1 week? Very disappointing. The watch itself is great to use - nothing special. Coming from the Watch 4, there is not exceptionally noticeable upgrade but it is smooth to use and the screen is clear. Nice a light also. Has a couple of laggy moments hopefully updates will iron this out. Battery life isnt great but its liveable.

mark237Product Ratings : 42025-08-06 PRESTONProduct Ratings : 4[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this as an upgrade for my wife who was on a Galaxy watch 6. She used the Galaxy Watch 6 daily, and the only problem with it was that the fitness tracking seemed to not be as accurate. As the the Galaxy watch 8 has a few improvements here, it seemed like the right move and it does seem to be more accurate. The Galaxy Watch 8 has been both exciting and, in some areas, surprising. While the jump isn't revolutionary, there are enough meaningful improvements to justify the upgrade. It seems faster, better at tracking and the battery also lasts longer. My wife also liked the style this has over previous generations with the change in shape.

DeeptiProduct Ratings : 52025-09-13Product Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

In fact this is the first watch I've had for over 15 years other than a Polar fitness band. I bought it when I upgraded my phone as part of the contract as a way to monitor my fitness and I was pleasantly surprised at how well integrated it is with the phone and Clouse services. The only gripe I have is that the battery only lasts a day, which I can understand considering what it does, but it is really annoying having grown up with watches where the battery lasts for weeks or months. I suppose this will get better over time. But lovely watch, great design, amazing customisability.

It’s slim, lightweight, and very comfortable. The bright display is clear both indoors and outdoors, making it easy to check the time, fitness stats, or notifications at a glance. I mostly use it for step tracking, heart rate monitoring, and sleep analysis. Workout modes are easy to start and provide helpful feedback. Notifications, music control, and quick timers make daily tasks easier, and the Bluetooth connection has been smooth. Battery life lasts about two days, and charges quickly, so it’s always ready when I need it. Highly recommend !

BuddytheelfProduct Ratings : 32025-12-09Product Ratings : 3[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had a Samsung galaxy watch 4 previously. Can't run some Samsung apps properly that I used to run on previous watch due to permissions being so locked down. New features like vascular load and Age's index not really helpful. Don't know what results should look like for some one my age. Using a Vaseline than comparing against a baseline can let you know if improving or getting worse, but doesn't tell me how I compare to my age group. I don't feel like it's a massive leap forward. Much the same. Not worth the upgrade (so far). Temperature should be able to be measured any time. Not just while I'm sleeping. Needs work
Helpful?Originally posted on Samsung AustraliaHappyCustomer123Product Ratings : 42026-07-08Product Ratings : 4[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought this watch a couple days ago and I am so impressed. Upgrading from an ageing Watch4, this new watch is so comfortable to wear, the cushion design is surprisingly nice and it's growing on me. The only downside tho is that this watch does get get damaged pretty easily, like I already have a range of small cosmetic marks. Also, I am fairly certain that my watch actually came with some as well, which is a bummer, so maybe quality control is not the best. That being said, I have come to embrace the marks as I believe they make it truly mine, and the rest of the watch is just top tier. It's so smooth, the battery is so legendary, and overall it's great for all aspects of my life.

Ease of buying (on Samsung site), very easy. Discription of item on the site is, again, excelent, apart from one very important thing.... No where that I could see does it mention the fact that the wireless charger cable only conects through usb-c, which means I now have to buy a new charger that will accept usb-c cables! Either that or charge using my phone! Very poor description/comunication on the site. Delivery, perfect.

Helpful?Originally posted on Samsung New ZealandAnonymousProduct Ratings : 42026-05-04Product Ratings : 4I got this in the mail two weeks ago, and I've found it to be much more useful than I thought it'd be. It hooked up with Google maps for directions, kept track of my blood pressure, my sleep schedule, my events, and more. The only thing it couldn't do is connect to my FreeStyle Libre 2 to keep track of my blood sugar, and I hope that'll be covered in the near future. It's been quite comfortable to wear, I was worried it'd bother me since I've not used watches in ages, but it fits quite well. The watch face is bright enough to use during the day, for clear viewing, and the interface is intuitive once you've gone through the initial setup. Connecting to the phone was a breeze, and took almost no work at all.

Huge improvement over my previous Watch 4. The fit is so comfortable and super light. I love how easy it is to change bands as I like to switch between the sports band and the hybrid band depending on what I am doing. Charges very fast although I do have problems charging on my Samsung wireless charger trio as the band does not lie flat so it does not connect. The display is crystal clear and response time is excellent. I make use of so many of the functions, there are very few I don't use. All in all I am extremely pleased I made the switch.

Gerry DProduct Ratings : 12025-08-12Product Ratings : 1Turns out the watch is not really water proof. It gets damaged when submerged in clear water and the warranty does not cover water damage of any kind. Be aware of this. Additionally, the new curve of the straps does not allow it to rest flat on charging stations, so it does not charge. The original magnetic charger must be used.

eingProduct Ratings : 52025-08-08Product Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new watch arrived promptly and has been really easy to set up to match with a Samsung Galaxy phone. It has been fairly intuitive to navigate its functions, and fun to explore all the health features. I like the clean design, and it is light weight and very comfortable to wear (including overnight). The battery lasts up to two days with continuous use, and takes about an hour to recharge. For phone calls, I am told the sound is of the same high quality as the phone. As a supplement to the phone, the watch is useful, functional, comfortable, and great value for money.

The screen resolution is crisp; vivid and the brightness also helps to make it easy to read even in direct sunlight. The straps included however is too short and I need to purchase additional straps. I was able to set it up with ease when paring with Samsung S23 . It very responsive to touch without and delay. I use the watch record my activity when running on treatmill. The distance recorded are very closed and that give me confident the accuracy when GPS signal is not available.

Mostly happy with it. The design is great, the feel is very comfortable. The battery lasts just over a day which isn't the best, could possibly get longer using battery saver but who buys a watch to do that? Also I've had probiwith the sleep and energy score. It hasn't tracked me since purchase and I've tried every suggestion to resolve this issue. Cleaned sensor, changed arms, turn power saving on and off, reset watch, uninstalled and reinstalled apps and still no luck. I'm getting to the point where I might return to place of purchase.

SalbertaroseProduct Ratings : 32025-12-19Product Ratings : 3I bought this to replace my 2nd gen watch ( which was still working by the way) only to find out that it doesn't do what I bought it for. I have a pixel 7a phone, which by the way is a Samsung phone, but you have disabled the ability to use the ECG and BP function. Shame on you. I hope that Google goes with a different company for their phones in the future. This does not make me want to get any more Samsung products, it makes me sorry I didn't get a pixel watch. Because I can't use those specific features,it really doesn't do much more than my original Galaxy watch.

There are simple manuals easy to access to help get u connected and how to navigate the watch. It's a lovely light watch with easy interchangeable straps which I think it's a lovely option. Good size face and wide selection of faces which u can customise. The only downside is the battery life, while the health apps are amazing to have it does drain the battery i haven't used the watch to it's full potential so I don't think it would last a full day if u did. I had to turn on the power saver to get around 1.5days use before charging. On the whole a really good watch and a good investment if u are always losing your fone at the bottom of your bag!

Gerisa96Product Ratings : 32025-09-14Product Ratings : 3[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The watch looks really nice, has bright display, variaty of features and is the most comfortable tracking watch I have had. However, there are some negatives too - some of the features are available only for Samsung smartphone users which is quite restrictive. The battery lasts around 2 days with minimum usage, which is just not enough. Also, the sport band it came with started getting dirty after few weeks of wear - the sisal bits are getting darker, and the corners of the band are turning blue. It's quite dissapinting quality for a Samsung product at such a price point and makes me wander how long would the watch last. While there are quite few positives of this watch, the negatives are a reason why I wouldn't repurchase it.

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.

Helpful?Originally posted on Samsung AustraliaVixenEagleProduct Ratings : 52026-05-30Product Ratings : 5I just upgraded from the Samsung Watch5 to the Samsung Watch8 and I am already incredibly blow away by the difference. I love the change to the watchface itself and the entire interface. Yhe change in speed and accuracy on a watch that was already great for me is now impeccable. The battery has improved vastly but I feel, still needs some work. The current update does not allow you to change the tone of preexisting alarm sounds on the watch, which would be nice to see and likely something I'm sure they will eventually implement. The price point for Samsung Watches, in my opinion, are some of the best that you will ever find for a device with this many features. It is very comfortable and adaptable to any type of lifestyle, I primarily use is due to my medical issues and it has been an extreme help watching out for certain symptoms. The ergonomics and overall brightness is incredible, the brightness alone is so good that you can have it at a fair level, with the Always on Display activated and tbe battery will last, much of what kills mine so quickly are the features that I choose to use but the charge is so insanely fast that it's often done by the time I take my medication, brush my teeth and get dressed quickly. The fact that this watch has 32GB of space blows me away. I love the Watch8, and cannot wait for future upgrades.

jillybeanzProduct Ratings : 52025-08-27 AngmeringProduct Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So yes initially it looks massive on my small wrist, but on closer inspection it is just the squarer frame of the face. On set up I love the fact it asked if I wanted to restore the settings from my previous watch which I did and it has transferred all my existing settings and watch faces to the new device and really quickly. I am using the health monitoring features and have noticed there is a greater accuracy when recording steps than in earlier models alongside the updated gps. The blood pressure has been calibrated and the ECG has been recorded, so I will see how I get on after a work out. I love it so far and it has been a great addition to my fitness routine and wardrobe, the straps are easy to change so goes with everything.

I've been wearing the Galaxy Watch 4 since that was released in 2021, but the Watch 8 feels much better on my wrist due to the new slimmer design, and it does feel like it brings up notifications a lot faster now, which is what I mainly use the watch for, and the design on my wrist looks a lot nicer with the silver accent than just the black circle, it looks much smarter. I charge every night, but I believe this would last a bit longer than one day if needed. I would definitely recommend purchasing the Watch 8!

It fits snugly on my wrist and feels both lightweight and slim. Setup was quick and straightforward from the moment I linked it to my phone. The new 3nm processor, paired with the latest One UI, makes navigating menus and features smooth and effortless. The design is sleek and stylish, making it absolutely worth purchasing. One standout feature is its ability to measure my antioxidant levels, helping me monitor my diet and encouraging healthier habits — an innovative and welcome addition. After using it for a few days, I’ve realised how much I can do without my phone, which is incredibly convenient when I’m on the go. The battery life is also impressive, lasting at least two days.

The screen has becoming noticeably larger and pixel density has probably increased as well, so the user interface has been able to fit in more information and buttons in a more relaxed manner, there's still plenty of empty space so it's not overly cramped. With regards to build quality, the new approach with the watch body looks and feels very nice. I went with the new hybrid watch strap and the quality and feel of it was nicer than I expected, on the inside face, it's essentially still a silicone based strap. Also, the watch's processor has improved a lot, and there's no noticeable lag when using it. Would thoroughly recommend a Watch 8 purchase.

A variety of watch faces are suitable for it. I'm glad I chose it!

Battery easily gets through a full day — sleep tracking overnight, exercise included — and charges way faster than I expected.

NotsofananymoeProduct Ratings : 12025-08-28Product Ratings : 1It's a cool watch but mine died only two weeks after purchase after getting in water—not even the sea—for less than 10 min of swimming—not even a full workout. Took it back to Samsung for warranty and had to fight with them to get it fixed and they made a "one time exception for me". While I appreciate the effort to make me right, they made me sign and swear I won't get it in water again, which is completely unacceptable for a device advertised to be waterproof and track your swimming that's also worth more than $400. Also, the new strap design is so weird and poorly designed that it prevents the watch from making contact with the wireless chargers. I can't charge it anymore in my 2 in 1 and 3 in 1 Samsung wireless charges without having to tie the straps in weird ways.

Steve0thenerdProduct Ratings : 52026-06-03Product Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just switched phones and watches across to the android system and got the galaxy watch 8 as part of this. It's a nice looking watch, but what has really impressed me is the quality and variety of data I now have, particularly as it relates to health and fitness. Previously, with the old devices I got pretty basic info and the readings were inconsistent. With the galaxy watch I have really fast readings, with lots of quality data. Now, using the Samsung health app I have a good read on so many things and it's very simple to tweak and get high value info to help on the health and fitness journey. This supports data nerds like me who like to dive in deep, but it's also super useful for people who want straight forward clear feedback on how things are tracking. So glad I made the switch.

Jaques BothmaProduct Ratings : 52026-06-03 New ZealandProduct Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Usability and integration on this watch is smooth. Using the watch interface helped me in my daily life. I like the camera function, as I often need to take pictures in weird angles. The ability to change quick functions is a boon. Connectivity to apps on my phone also works well, and integrates well most of the time. Battery life has not improved much over the classic, but it still lasts me a day and that's good enough. The screen is robust and strong, durability has improved over the classic.

It can do so much and every time I scroll through the features I seem to find something else. I'm very impressed with the levels of customisation you can give to this. It connected easily to my phone. The watch is comfortable to wear and the battery life is just over a day but I'm sure as the novelty wears off it off. The buttons have additional functionality and are easy to use. They dont stick out too much so you dont end up catching them or accidentally pressing them. The standard watch strap is ok, trying to secure the 3nd of the watch strap can be a little tricky as it goes under the main strip and I do seem to keep pinching my skin. Overall a massive thumbs up from me. I really am enjoying this watch and it does everything I need it to do and so so much more!

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.

It looks great, holds a charge for longer. (I'm upgrading from the Watch4). The new faces that are available look nice, until you see the horrible orange highlight colours that can't be changed, this is minor. The main issue is the new strap raises the watch too high to charge on the dock. It charges with the one supplied, but to use the Samsung dock you need to take the strap off. I subsequently bought the fabric strap but this too sits too high.

Helpful?Originally posted on Samsung AustraliaSamsung long time fanProduct Ratings : 32025-11-23Product Ratings : 3[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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 interface is exceptionally responsive, the wear app makes it so easy to to customise the watch to my needs, and importantly to me the watch face isn't too big (small wrists, I struggle with this frequently). I enjoy the variety of activities that it can log, the extensive array of watch faces (though i suspect i will only use a couple of them) and the battery life is good too.

Watchme8Product Ratings : 42025-08-30Product Ratings : 4[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

When I first opened the box I thought it looked bigger than my previous watch 7 but once it was on, it looked fine and I definitely noticed it felt lighter on. Functionality-wise, there’s a plethora of options which I still need to explore although so far I’ve been impressed with the way it monitors my sleep. It’s also possible to keep track of the timing of activities on the watch face (e.g when you’re walking) as well as the watch showing the time. The one downside I would observe is the battery life - even after messing around with settings to switch off the watch face being on all the time, the most I’m getting so far is about a day and a half so I have to be mindful when I charge. All in all though, worth the upgrade.

estherella1Product Ratings : 52025-08-14 LondonProduct Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new Watch 8 is a huge improvement with a slim and smooth design and flawless look. The different colours and changeable strap helps to customise it. It has smooth tracking with fitness on the phone and also with AI features and GPS. The battery life is also better and long lasting. It monitors fitness, energy and sleep with an improved, fast processor. It is a great watch and i highly recommend.

Cxy21Product Ratings : 52025-08-19Product Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new model design in the Galaxy Watch 8 series is great. The clip on curved bands stays better on the wrist. The screen size is a wider, somehow larger format. The software is tightly coupled with the smart phone. The structured method for accessing the different apps is better than previous models. The watch gets added into system backup, migrated in Samsung Health, and added into Samsung Find.

Helpful?Originally posted on Samsung AustraliaGardenNessProduct Ratings : 42026-05-28 New ZealandProduct Ratings : 4[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I mainly got this watch as I'm a Tyoe 1 diabetic and need to keep an eye on my blood glucose levels. It wasn't too hard to connect the watch to my Samsung phone for accessing CGM data and have my BG clearly displayed on the face beside the time. A quick glance at my wrist is much easier than pulling my phone out to check! I also enjoy the other things it does, tracking exercise and sleep, as they are also important for managing Type 1 diabetes well. I only gave 4 stars as the battery life is pretty short and I've been caught out occasionally when I haven't remembered to recharge. It is quick to charge though, and not a big problem to leave it on the charger for a short time each day ... if I remember! I'm a gardener, and the watch seems to be holding up well to the soil and knocks that it gets in the garden. I got a screen protector applied at the time of purchase which obviously helps.

The design feels premium without being bulky, performance is incredibly smooth, and the health tracking is both detailed and easy to understand. Battery life has also been much better than I expected for such a feature-packed smartwatch. It’s become one of those devices I now use constantly throughout the day without even thinking about it.

wwomanProduct Ratings : 42026-05-23 Hamilton, New ZealandProduct Ratings : 4[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Setup was quick and easy. Samsung Smart Switch does everything - and more. Im really enjoying the features it offers and the way it pairs with my new Samsung S26 Ultra to give me notifications and the ability to take and make calls and texts. Battery life is less than I expected, the watch has to be charged every day. All in all though Im very happy and would recommend this to anyone.

Helpful?Originally posted on Samsung New ZealanddotbaitProduct Ratings : 52025-12-01Product Ratings : 5[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to replace an older smart watch that broke, and first thing I noticed was how bright and easy to read the screen is compared to my older one. Many of the features I use are the health related ones, and it works great for those. The band is very comfortable even after wearing it the entire day. On top of all that, I've had several compliments on how nice my watch looks.
