Smart. Timeless. Elegant
Your style, your statement: Inspired by the look of traditional chronographs, the Galaxy Watch8 Classic sets a stylish accent on your wrist. The timeless design of the high-quality stainless steel case in "Black" or "White" (46 mm) meets modern functionality in the form of the distinctive rotating bezel. You're ready to go instantly with the side quick button. Assign your favorite function to it, for example, to start your training recordings directly or to spontaneously record a voice memo. The new, separately available bands offer a wide selection of high-quality materials and fresh colors. Swap the bands with just one click to combine your personal style with the desired wearing comfort, for example for sporting activities or a professional look.
Clear Visibility Even in Sunshine
With the Galaxy Watch8 Classic, you'll stay on track even during sunny outdoor activities. The high-resolution display with up to 3,000 nits brightness ensures brilliant visuals – even in direct sunlight. Whether you're tracking your training data while jogging or checking incoming messages at a street café: your content will appear with high contrast and be easy to read without you having to shield the display with your hand or turn away. Wherever you are: enjoy excellent visibility of what's important to you from early morning to late evening.
Plenty of Power and Endurance
Experience real smartwatch power in your everyday life. With the powerful 3nm processor, the Galaxy Watch8 Classic reacts quickly to your commands: from starting your apps to processing complex voice commands. The intelligent energy management ensures a long battery life. This means your Galaxy Watch has enough power to track your workouts throughout the day, monitor your stress level, let you be supported by AI – and even track your sleep at night.
Listen to Your Inner Clock
A good day starts with restful sleep. Thanks to AI-powered sleep analysis, the Galaxy Watch8 Classic can precisely capture and evaluate your sleep patterns. With your personal sleep score, which is composed of data such as sleep duration, depth, and length of your sleep phases, and your time to fall asleep, it provides you with daily insights into your nightly regeneration, including tips for improvement. But it's not just the length and quality of sleep that are crucial. Our circadian rhythm and sleep pressure, i.e., our natural sleep-wake rhythm, also influence our well-being. Even small deviations from it can lead to daytime fatigue or concentration problems. Therefore, the Galaxy Watch determines how your inner clock ticks in a three-day measurement. To help you live even more in sync with your body, the Galaxy Watch suggests personalized tips for bedtime and wake-up times. Experience for yourself the difference sleep coaching can make.
Your Personal Running and Fitness Coach
Start your running training exactly where you are in terms of performance. The Galaxy Watch8 Classic meets you at your current running level – and guides you with personalized running coaching¹ all the way to your goal. Even if you're aiming for a marathon. With a short questionnaire and a 12-minute run, the Galaxy Watch determines your current running level. The tailored running training helps you to continuously increase your performance without overexerting your body. After each run, you'll receive a detailed analysis of your running parameters to help you track your progress and stay motivated. You can also efficiently track other workouts like cycling, yoga, or indoor swimming with the versatile workout functions of your Galaxy Watch. Whether you want to improve or simply stay active: achieve your goals with AI-powered functions⁴ and personalized feedback.
Valuable Health Insights
With the Galaxy Watch8 Classic, you can monitor not only your heart rate and blood pressure but also your body composition. The Galaxy Watch goes one step further and provides insights into your vascular health². Innovative algorithms detect changes in vascular elasticity during sleep. The lower the level, the less your cardiovascular system is strained. If the value increases, the Galaxy Watch can give you valuable tips for improving your habits. Additionally, by simply placing your finger on the sensor, it analyzes your antioxidant index⁵. This tells you how well you are supplied with secondary plant compounds like beta-carotene. They can neutralize free radicals in the body and protect cells from damage, e.g., from premature aging. Find out directly if you need to adjust your diet to improve your value. And ask Google Gemini³ for recipes that are good for you.
AI Power on Your Wrist
With Google Gemini³ on your Galaxy Watch8 Classic, smart support is available when you need it. Whether you're jogging, cooking, or at the supermarket: raise your arm, activate Google Gemini, and speak into the Galaxy Watch. Gemini can search for relevant answers to your questions, check your calendar, or send messages for you without you having to pick up your smartphone. Get a recommended 8 km running route. Start your favorite playlist, set a timer for perfectly cooked pasta, or search for protein-rich snacks without sugar – all with a voice command. Are you running late? Then have Gemini draft a message and send it directly to your friends. The more you use your Galaxy Watch, the better Gemini learns your routines – and can proactively offer help.
