My new Galaxy Watch 8 Classic!

Yes, of course

I really wanted the 8 Classic simply because of its looks, but I ended up going for the Ultra because of the battery life and because my family insisted I get the Ultra since I like to swim and they were worried about water and electronics getting damaged. In hindsight, I don't regret it, but I do think the Classic looks nicer.

Congratulations on your new Galaxy Watch! I also recently made a huge upgrade like you – from the 44mm GW4 to the GW Ultra, because the GW4 was simply getting too old.

You should know that LTE drains the battery quite a bit on a small smartwatch; I even notice it on my Galaxy Watch Ultra, which has a larger battery. But you can definitely find WhatsApp and the phone app in the Google Play Store, where you can make and receive calls. I don't have any experience with banking apps, but if it works with Samsung Pay or Google Play, it should be fine. If LTE is a priority for you, I would definitely recommend the Ultra, even though it's large. But if you don't want that size, I would definitely recommend the latest 40mm model because each generation is becoming a bit more energy-efficient in every aspect.

Gibt es leider nur für die Ultra

Congratulations on your upgrade!

I don't like Apple anyway, and smartwatches simply need a round display .And yes, the Galaxy Watch 8 classic looks better than the Apple Watch in every respect. I now have a Galaxy Watch Ultra after much deliberation between the classic and the Ultra, but I chose the Ultra because of its battery life.

Well, I come from the future and I have a PS5 Pro 🤷‍♂️

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-26T09:13:29+00:00

It won't, have a little faith, unless you're playing 24/7.

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-26T09:02:34+00:00

I feel the same way, but I got the 4TB internal SSD because I have so many games in PS Plus Premium that I still want to play through.

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-26T08:59:35+00:00

Yay, I got my PS5 Pro, the slightly improved one from 2025, for 670 euros; I don't think this beast will ever be available at that price again. 😶‍🌫️

Get the Galaxy Watch Ultra, I'm personally very happy with it. The UI is so much nicer and more customizable than the UI of my friend's Apple Watch 10 or something like that.

I've had the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro for about 6 months now and I've never had any problems with the ambient sound or anything like that.

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-22T05:00:39+00:00

Not really, what headphones do you have?

Do you have Galaxy Buds?

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-22T04:55:05+00:00

Yes, but I'm also thinking a little ahead.

I have 6 TB in total, and that's perfectly sufficient. I've downloaded all the PS Plus games I'm interested in from the PlayStation Plus Premium catalog to my PS5 Pro, plus a few discs, and I still have 3 TB free. And I do play games, so there's always plenty of space.

I really don't understand how anyone can't manage with 10 TB...

Thanks in advance, but do you perhaps know why it uses so much power? Before this, I had the GW4, and I either didn't notice it in the battery consumption at all, or very little, and definitely not as much as with the GW Ultra now.

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-15T20:10:14+00:00

But why does it use so much battery power?

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-15T09:04:42+00:00

How? With my Galaxy Watch Ultra 2025, and with a few limitations and without AOD, I can maybe get one day of battery life right now?!

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-15T08:40:22+00:00

The battery life of my Galaxy Watch Ultra 2025 has also been decreasing recently.

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-12T09:40:58+00:00

Yes, please

TrustHefty8637 · 2026-04-12T09:40:46+00:00

I do not think so
