These offers are available from Amazon, but they are a little different. With the Galaxy Watch 8, you get an Amazon credit. This means that the $50 is just deposited into your account automatically. The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic comes with a $100 Amazon gift card, which you have to manually redeem.<\/p>\n

Brighter display, better battery life<\/p>\n

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 offers a new ‘squircle’ look, with new band attachments, backed by new software, a 50% brighter display over last year’s model, and a slightly larger battery. The watch is available in four configurations: a 40mm display in Wi-Fi or LTE and a 44mm display in Wi-Fi or LTE.<\/p>\n

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 adopts a new design, with a more square bezel and circular screen that more closely resembles the Galaxy Watch Ultra\u2019s look. Love it or hate it, it certainly makes it stand out from most other smartwatches.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also 11% thinner. While thinner, it still features an IP68 rating<\/a>, so it is resistant to both water and dust. So much that it even gets a 50ATM rating, which means you can submerge it as deep as 50 meters. Additionally, it gets a MIL-STD-810H certification. In short: this thing can take a beating!<\/p>\n

Build quality aside, it is a really fun watch to use. You get a large 1.47-inch Super AMOLED panel with a whopping 3,000 nits of brightness. This is comparable to the highest-end smartwatches available. And the 480 x 480 resolution is sharp and 327ppi (pixels per inch).<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also get a pretty nice 30-hour battery life when the always-on display feature is enabled. If you disable it, it gets extended to 40 hours.<\/p>\n

Going squircle, still Classic<\/p>\n

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic continues the Classic lineage but with a squircle redesign. Available in Wi-Fi and LTE, with a 3,000 nit display and big 445mAh battery, enjoy all of the best Samsung smartwatch software experiences in style.<\/p>\n

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is fantastic, but the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is even better. Let\u2019s go over the benefits of upgrading.<\/p>\n

For starters, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic offers a more refined design that looks more like a traditional watch. The frame is made of stainless steel instead of aluminum. It also has twice as much storage, at 64GB.<\/p>\n

This one also features a rotating bezel that provides a more interesting way to interact with the smartwatch. Not everyone will deem these improvements worthy, but if you do, the $100 gift card makes this a more enticing upgrade. The retail price is $150 higher, though.<\/p>\n

Again, these offers are pre-order deals, and both smartwatches will be released tomorrow. You might want to secure your free gift card while you can!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"C.
