Premium Model
Samsung traditionally does not divide its flagship smartwatches into men's and women's categories, however, the compact 40mm version is more suitable for a narrower wrist compared to the 44mm version. At first glance, it is evident that this is a premium device made of high-quality materials. The updated design combines a square case with rounded edges and a classic round display. The aluminum frame around the screen enhances durability and protects the device from mechanical damage. The display is covered with sapphire glass, which is resistant to scratches, keeping the watch looking flawless for a long time. Water resistance to IP68 and 5ATM standards allows the gadget to be submerged up to 5 meters deep for an hour, and compliance with military standard MIL-STD-810H guarantees resilience to extreme conditions. Meanwhile, the body is only 8.6 mm thick, and the model weighs no more than 30g, making it light and comfortable for daily wear.
Flagship Equipment
As befits a top model, the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 is equipped to the highest level. The new Exynos W1000 processor combined with 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of internal storage ensures high performance and smooth system operation even when running multiple applications simultaneously. The 1.34-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 438×438 pixels and brightness up to 3000 nits demonstrates excellent clarity, rich colors, and great readability even in bright sunlight. The built-in artificial intelligence Google Gemini accesses the calendar, mail, reminders, and other data, helping to perform various tasks — from sending messages to making schedule changes and creating shopping lists.
The main compromise of the device is battery life. With active use including workouts, constant measurements, and the Always-On Display enabled, the watch needs to be charged daily. With moderate use, one charge lasts about one and a half to two days.
Expanded Capabilities
Many built-in sensors allow for thorough tracking of the user's health and activity levels: measuring heart rate, blood oxygen level, body and ambient temperature, taking ECGs, analyzing sleep and stress levels. Among the more advanced features is determining the antioxidant level in the skin, which helps assess the carotenoid content and obtain dietary recommendations. The energy score indicator displays physical and mental status based on sleep, activity, and other parameters. The device also analyzes the impact of stress on the vascular system and can detect signs of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The Hard Fall Detection feature records falls and automatically contacts emergency contacts.
Additionally, the smartwatch supports voice calls, more than a hundred sports modes, precise route tracking thanks to dual-frequency GPS, and contactless payments through Samsung Pay.
