[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the 8 classic for its retro fit rotating bezel. I support the software updates and enjoy the trackers and measured readings I love this watch.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this style over the other 2 because it looked more like a classic wrist watch. The only thing i would chnage if i could go back is add the cellular capability to it instead of just bluetooth. Overall a great watch and very functional

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the s8 classic after having an s4 classic for a long time. I love the bevel on the s4 and the s8 is smoother and so is the touch screen. This is my first watch with lte service and I am loving it. Probably won't be going back to just the Bluetooth version

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This samsung galaxy watch 8 classic is one of the best from Samsung I've baught. The dial is so convenient and the watch operates so well with my Samsung galaxy z fold 8 ultra that when I'm working and within Bluetooth range, I don't even need my phone so it helps the preservation of my phone having this very nice watch. I chose to pair my Samsung galaxy watch 8 classic with my Samsung galaxy z fold 8 ultra and am so happy I did!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my third Galaxy watch. I am in love with this watch and I wear it 24x7. It is way more than a competent timekeeper. It keeps me connected to literally every app and feature of my Galaxy S26 Ultra. It's a very attractive smartwatch and very comfortable to wear. It's so water resistant that I can wear it in the shower. It has much more capability than I can use every day, but I am always learning about its features and how to use them to enhance my life. I love my Galaxy Watch8 Classic. I'm a customer for life because Samsung is the world leader in accurate technology.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I cannot say enough good things about these things. Only time I used up the battery in a day was when I forgot my phone at home and was streaming music all day through it.
But never had it die on the day to day. One thing they should figure out on these newer one is the ability to power share again.
