Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 40mm Bluetooth | Graphite

I purchased this as a Christmas gift 2025 for my son. I have the smaller pink band watch 8 for myself. The watch 8 fits better than the 7 in our opinion. I have both of them in lte just in case either of us has left our phone home or it has died and just for emergency sake now that he drives. I love the health features for myself now that I am getting older I can just monitor in general and do better with activities and sleep. Decent battery power. I just feel better we both have one. I have recommended with the Samsung watches in the past and I will continue to purchase in the future.

Great watch but...my only complaint is that you cannot use certain apps on this Watch thatYou can on the apple watch. So if you are looking for a shared ride or an taxi type service, you cannot use those applications.Because they're not available on this watch. So ask before purchasing. Hopefully in the future those apps will become available.Other than that, no complaints. The battery.life is great, color and face bright and easy to read, lots of different watch faces to choose from.My main reason for wearing is to monitor sleep and exercise, overall health. Great on a daily monitoring basis.Connectivity is seamless on my android, easy set up and seems to work fine.

I have the watch mainly for fall alerts. I have GPS on all the time. I've had both the Wifi only model and this LTE model. Battery life was pretty much the same for both. I don't make calls with it or read mail. The watch started at 100% battery this morning and at 7:00 pm it's at 84%. Does a good job counting steps, but I can't speak to the accuracy. I bought a leather band that I like much better than the sport band that came with it. All in all very happy with the purchase.

Love this watch and wear it every day

Love the watch. Battery life has improved since the 7 all the features are pretty accurate with maybe a 5+/- difference.

Very happy with the watch. I am not easy on it, it gets roughed up and banged around, but still works great and I haven't had any issues with it.Charging is good although I wish the charger was different. It is just a small circle that moves around and falls off whatever you have it sitting on, and the cable is very short. I wish it was bigger and heavier so it would stay in one place.Easy to set up, relatively comfortable to wear although if you wear it all day it does feel nice to take it off.

My husband bought this for me but we was both skeptical about getting the 44mm but it is perfect definitely glad he went with the 44mm instead of the 40mm.. I thought it would look kinda weird because it is kinda big but it looks better then i thought.. Ive never liked thick bands so we got a new diamond band that is skinny for it and it looks and fits even better... For any women skeptical about the 44mm being to big for them or that the size of it would look weird, I have kinda small wrists as well but it looks alot better once its on, especially when you get accessories for it. And I would definitely recommend the 44mm... Works perfectly with my S24+.. I got the number share plan with my Verizon account and it is super easy and fast to set it up I set it up through the app and after you get the plan setup you can activate the watch through the wearables app.. The number share plan its self is only $15 so it's definitely worth getting the LTE instead of bluetooth so that way if you ever forget your phone, you will still be able to call and text if you need to.. Definitely good Value for the price.. It is definitely durable, I was trying to put the band on and my finger slipped off of the button and it fell from chest high and I am 5'7" so even tho it is durable I would definitely still get protection on it, I recommend doing the monthly device complete protection plan for $16.99/m because it covers all eligible past and future purchases and as long as the plan subscription is paid for every month the items will be covered even if you had the item for 15yrs, it doesnt matter how old it is, which is amazing... Would also still recommend a case for it or screen protector if you dont want a case just so the screen dont get cracked or cratched.. 10/10 Recommend forsure...
