Samsung Launches Galaxy Watch8 Series in India with Industry-First Features and Iconic Design

Samsung, India’s largest consumer electronics brand, has officially launched the Galaxy Watch8 and Galaxy Watch8 Classic, redefining smartwatch innovation with its thinnest Galaxy Watch ever and a suite of advanced wellness features.

Iconic Design Meets Powerful Performance

Inspired by the Galaxy Watch Ultra’s cushion design, the Galaxy Watch8 series introduces a refreshed aesthetic across the lineup. The redesigned internal structure improves component mounting by 30%, resulting in a sleek 11% thinner profile. The Dynamic Lug system enhances fit and comfort for all-day wear, making it a wellness companion that moves naturally with your wrist.

With a 50% brighter display peaking at 3,000 nits, the Galaxy Watch8 remains visible even under direct sunlight. Powered by a 3nm processor and dual-frequency GPS, it offers superior performance and ultra-precise location tracking, while the enhanced battery life keeps up with active users.

Groundbreaking Health and Sleep Tracking

The Galaxy Watch8 series is Samsung’s most advanced health-focused smartwatch lineup yet. Equipped with a new BioActive Sensor, it delivers deeper, more accurate health insights. Key highlights include:

• AI-powered Energy Score: Understand your mental and physical readiness daily
• Sleep Coaching & Bedtime Guidance: Improve sleep with circadian rhythm tracking
• Vascular Load Monitoring: Gauge cardiovascular stress during sleep
• Running Coach7: Personalized training with live feedback
• Together Feature: Compete with friends and family to stay motivated

World-First Antioxidant Index and Gemini AI Assistant

In a world-first, the Galaxy Watch8 measures your Antioxidant Index—a five-second carotenoid scan helping users make better aging-related lifestyle decisions. Plus, the Watch8 is the first smartwatch to feature Gemini, Google’s latest AI assistant, offering smarter interactions and deeper Google ecosystem integration via Wear OS 6.

The One UI 8 Watch update adds Multi-Info Tiles, a revamped Now Bar, and streamlined notifications for an effortless experience.
