Our take on the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is a Bluetooth smartwatch with health tracking, suited to IRL streamers with a Samsung phone.
The tracked price is $299.99, within a penny of its $299 low across three points from August 26 to October 1, 2026, so there is little reason to wait. The listing gives a 325 mAh battery, a rubber band and a running coach. Blood pressure tracking needs calibration with a cuff. The description says the Galaxy AI features require a compatible Samsung Galaxy phone, the Samsung Health app and a Samsung account. Rated 4.4 across 1,997 retailer ratings.
