Samsung Galaxy Watch8/Watch8 Classic Athleisure ranneke ET-SOL33LWEGEU - M/L - Valkoinen

Absolutley brilliant! I love it!!! The battery goes down quite fast but for how hard it works I can't hold that against it. I've basically got my phone on my watch for a start, the health monitoring benefits are fantastic. The screen is clear and responsive as well as completely customisable. It charges super quickly. I highly recommend it!

I was given this as birthday present to replace my classic 6, and the improvements definitely show. The screen is much clearer and responsive compared to the classic 6. My only complaint is I preferred the actually circular design of the classic 6 over the weird rounded square with a round dial slapped on that is the classic 8, and that removing the S/M and M/L sizing of the default band in favour of a one size fits all approach is absurd.

Along with upgrading my S24 ultra to the Galaxy Z fold 8 ultra, I also opted to upgrade my watch 4 classic to the watch 8 classic. Screen is a little bigger which is really nice to have, and much more easy to use. I didn't get the watch 9 as I like the classic look and didn't want to wait whether next year's watch will be called the watch 10 classic or go totally different. Very responsive and the classy look really makes it look like a nice watch compared to other smart watched that are more boxy. 1 thing I don't like however, is the squircle. I think it looks ugly and useless. I hope they get rid of it and go back to the circular watch style.

I have never worn a watch consistently and this is my first smart watch. Weight is not an issue. I wear it for many CrossFit workouts and cannot tell it's there. Would definitely recommend to anyone considering this watch. The ability to customize the face to suite me is a major plus as well.

I have had the watch for about a week, using it with a Watch 6. I prefer the rotating bezel as I think it provides a bit more protection for the watch face. I use the watch to record exercise activities. My all-motion trainer has a built-in heart rate monitor. The watch is always within one or two beats per minute compared to it. I also use the watch to read text messages and, occasionally, to respond. Great for controlling streaming music playback. I haven't tried out some of the other features except Samsung Health insights.
