Great Watch

GeeOhh . 1 hour ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Watch8 pairs nicely with my S25+. It just does daily things well, and is useful day in and day out. I try to upgrade to the newest model via trade-in every year, so we'll see what the Watch9 has to offer.

First time using a smart watch

GordonCole . 12 hours ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I'm doing work I don't want to have to pull phone out to check every notification, so having a watch to quickly peak at saves me a lot of trouble. Audio controls, calculator, camera view, heart rate monitor, voice recorder and other apps are super helpful too and keep me from having to use my phone as much. The screen is clear and responsive. Really enjoying my first smart watch.

Great gadget!

Wonderland94 . 14 hours ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love how straightforward, handy, and sleek the Galaxy8 LTE watch is! Im not big into tracking my health but that's one of my favorite features it counts my steps, tracks my sleep and stress, while also providing a daily energy score. I use it's timer for work or calculator for adding up points in a game. I added a search engine and love my mini internet lol. Above all of course it makes texting and calling so convenient! I've ALWAYS wanted to have a galaxy watch and I'm glad I finally got one! 10/10 experience!

BlessedaretheMeek . 2 days ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a mother, stepmother, partner, Secretary to a Board, and stroke survivor, my Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 really helps me get through my day to day life. Between doctor appointments, rehab, family stuff, meetings, the gym, and regular everyday chaos, having everything right on my wrist just makes life easier. I use my calendar and reminders constantly, so being able to quickly check notifications, calls, texts, and appointments without always grabbing my phone helps a lot. Especially on busy days when I already got too much going on. The health features have also helped me a lot after my stroke. Tracking my heart rate, sleep, steps, workouts, and activity helps keep me motivated, even on the hard days. The gym has become part of me trying to get back to myself, and I like being able to track progress without making it complicated. Galaxy AI has actually been useful too. It helps keep things organized and simple instead of feeling like extra stuff I’ll never use. And music? Whew. Music gets me through rehab, workouts, walks, cleaning, stressful days… all of it. Being able to control it from my watch without stopping what I’m doing is probably one of my favorite features. The battery life is good, it runs smooth, and it fits into my everyday life without me having to adjust to it. For me, that matters.

How far can you be from your phone and still receiving calls and texts

Answer from Verizon Customer Support6 days

The Samsung Galaxy Watch8 (released July 2025) typically stays connected to your phone via Bluetooth 5.3 within an average range of 30 to 40 feet (roughly 10–12 meters), though this can vary depending on walls or obstacles. If you have the LTE version, the watch can receive calls and notifications at almost any distance, even without your phone nearby, using a cellular connection~Jorge
