Hello Teacher1,, Thanks for providing us with your constructive insights regarding your experience using your Samsung Galaxy Watch8. We appreciate your candor. Samsung provides a 12-month warranty on our products for manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. We also have Samsung Care+ as an option which can be added to an eligible device. It's similar to extended warranty and an insurance package combined that provides protection beyond the standard manufacturer's warranty. It may cover events like accidental damage, mechanical breakdowns, and potentially theft and loss. Samsung Care+ offers you the ultimate peace of mind when it comes to protecting your investment. The Galaxy Watch8 40mm model offers a 325mAh battery while the 44mm model offers a 435mAh battery. Both options offer up to 30 hours of use in Always On Display (AOD) mode. Please take a moment to look over, "Reduced battery life on your Samsung smart watch" to see what factors, if any, may be impacting the life of your device. Water Lock mode on your Galaxy Watch8 has been designed to disable the touchscreen and wake-up gestures so water pressure or stray drops do not cause accidental "phantom" inputs. However, turning on Water Lock does not make your watch waterproof or increase its water resistance. The watch is protected against water damage by its built-in physical seals and its 5ATM/IP68 water resistance rating, whether you turn on Water Lock or not. Feel free to let us know if you would like any further assistance after reviewing the resources provided below by contacting Samsung Support at your earliest convenience. Thank you for being a dedicated Samsung customer. - Debra Samsung Support smsng.us/Samsung-Support Warranty Information smsng.us/Warranty-Info Facebook Messenger smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger X Messages https://smsng.us/X-Messages Samsung Community smsng.us/Samsung-Community Samsung Care Plus smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus Watch8 https://www.samsung.com/us/watches/galaxy-watch8/ Reduced battery life on your Samsung smart watch https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01 Use Water lock mode to swim with your Samsung smart watch https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00078058/ Samsung smart watch water resistance tips https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00078031/Samsung US Originally posted on Samsung US

Smore . Jul 23, 2026
Is it waterproof, available to wear while I swim?
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is water-resistant up to 50 meters and has an IP68 dust and water resistance rating, meaning it is water-resistant for shallow-water activities like swimming. It is not fully waterproof for high-velocity water sports or scuba diving. -Joe
Samsun galaxy 8 . Jul 21, 2026
Does this watch take your blood presure
Yes, the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 series (including both the standard and Classic models) can take and track your blood pressure.
SMar . Jul 18, 2026
Does tjis watch allow for wifi calling with no connected phone?
Good day SMar, thank you for asking us your question about the Samsung Galaxy Watch8. The Galaxy Watch8 LTE supports handling calls when separated from your phone by using a feature called Remote Connection over Wi-Fi. While it doesn't run a standalone carrier Wi-Fi calling toggle on the watch itself, it routes calls through your paired phone via Wi-Fi or connects directly via its built-in LTE mobile network. Hope that helps! If you think of additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact Support. Thank you for being a dedicated Samsung customer. - Debra
