The first renders clearly indicated what they could look like Galaxy Watch8 Classic. And unfortunately, such previews often reveal a lot about the final product – especially when we already have real photos of the supposedly real watch. And it looks pretty wild, which is definitely not to the advantage of the cause.
According to current information, the watch will be Galaxy Watch8 Classic It will have a 1,5-inch display, a 435 mAh battery, and dimensions of 46 x 46,5 x 14,2 mm. We don't know anything about the weight yet, but whether it will be made of steel or titanium, it's not hard to guess that this could be one of the heaviest watches with the system. Wear OSthat we have ever seen.

Point number 1: Thickness
Let's also not forget that Samsung constantly "artificially" manipulates the thickness of its watches by leaving the sensor protrusion out of the calculation, as if it were somehow removable or something. Galaxy Watch7 they are 9,7 mm thick according to him, but in reality it is about 12,7 mm. Likewise, Galaxy Watch Ultra it is closer to 15,5 mm thick than the declared 12,1 mm.
It is a question of which value the mentioned 14,2 mm is, but it is not a win in either case. If you take the 12 mm thick Ulter case and add a 2 mm thick rotating bezel to it, it would give some clue. The thickness is therefore the first fact that can be quite controversial and can be very annoying.

Point number 2: Design
The second is the design itself. It is true that this look looks modern, but the whole thing is more Galaxy Watch Ultra than Galaxy Watch Classic series. Only the rotating bezel is actually identical to them, nothing more. And because the design Galaxy Watch Ultra I really don't like it because it just plain steals. Apple Watch Ultra, so even though I like the Classic series models, I really don't like this and I'm really worried about what Samsung is actually planning with this.

Who wants to like it? The Classic line gets its name from the fact that it's supposed to be classic, stylish, and social, but the orange crown is just as scary as the Ulter one - whether Applu, so Samsung. This is how it would Galaxy Watch Classic They simply shouldn't look like that, because they will simply deter regular customers rather than attract them.
Galaxy Watch6 Classic
Point number 3: Battery
The aforementioned leak also claims that the Watch8 Classic will have a rated battery capacity of 435 mAh, which is a typical capacity of 450 mAh. This is only a very slight increase from 425 mAh. Galaxy Watch7 and Watch6 Classic, and of course it's also significantly less than the 590 mAh Galaxy Watch Ultra or Watch5 Pro.
Galaxy Watch Ultra
Heavy watches usually offer above-average battery life or other benefits due to their sturdiness. But if Galaxy Watch8 Classic offers the same 40-hour battery life, the same 1,5-inch display, and (presumably) the same Exynos chip and only 2GB of RAM as last year's models, what's the justification for buying such a large and design-questionable watch? You'll have to answer that for yourself.
“…because design Galaxy Watch Ultra I really don't like it because it just plain steals. Apple Watch Ultra... "
Can I ask what it is? It's a completely different watch in terms of design and it's based on the Gear Sport - so Samsung may be stealing from itself.
I'm actually the owner of the Watch 7 and this look is terrible. I really won't buy it. When round watches come back then yes. Papa Samsung.
