According to our smartwatch expert
With the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Silver 40mm, you get an extensive overview of your health and always have an AI assistant with you. Thanks to the watch, you'll know how you sleep, what your stress level is, and what your stamina is, among other things. That way, you can improve your mental and physical health. For example, your ability to sleep or concentrate. The smartwatch is slimmer than its predecessor, so it fits your wrist better and the health readings are even more accurate. With the AI assistant Gemini, you can make your life easier. Tell the watch on which day you have an appointment and it'll put it in your calendar for you, for example. The battery of the Watch 8 lasts 1.5 days with average use.
This watch is recommended for a wrist circumference of 13 to 15cm.
Note: a charger isn't included. Want to charge the watch via a socket? Use the charger of your smartphone or order a separate charger.

For me, it's an upgrade from Watch 4. There are improvements now, but nothing truly spectacular. For example, this watch measures my home temperature, but nowhere (understandably) does it explain what I'm supposed to do with it. Also (and I find this really annoying) it doesn't mention that some of the wireless chargers are now useless with this watch, because the shape of the watch strap prevents the watch from being placed flat on the charger. Quite annoying.

Great watch, the screen turns on when you lift your wrist. Lightweight and provides excellent, accurate health-related information.

I'm super happy with my new watch, a huge improvement over the Active 2 I still had. What I hadn't read anywhere (perhaps I hadn't looked properly) was that not all functions work well with an Android-only, non-Samsung phone.
