Introduction

After the success of the Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra, there's a lot of excitement about the Galaxy Watch 8 lineup. In particular, rumors of the return of a Classic model has got people talking.

Design

As of April 21, no details are available on the design of Samsung's upcoming watches. The regular Galaxy Watch 8 will likely look almost exactly the same as the Galaxy Watch 7, and the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic will probably feature the typical physical rotating bezel that we have seen on previous Galaxy Watch Classics.

Software and features

Not a lot is known about the specs and features of the Galaxy Watch 8. One thing that's confirmed is the battery capacity: 435 mAh, which is just 10 mAh higher than the Watch 7. Samsung may also introduce blood glucose monitoring with the Galaxy Watch 8, though the feature may not be available in all markets from day one.

Price and availability

Samsung will probably announce the Galaxy Watch 8 lineup alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7, its flagship foldables for 2025. Pricing info is unavailable as of April 2025.
