We tried out the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 and the Watch 8 Classic smartwatches. They look great, feel comfortable, and offer new AI features, but are more expensive than previous-gen models.

Samsung's Galaxy Watch 8 series adopts a new band system to streamline strap swapping, and I'm very happy about it.

Aside from the new design, the Galaxy Watch 8 also introduces a handful of other changes. Such as new software versions, new features, and new price points. For example, the Galaxy Watch 8 starts at $349.
