The brand new Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is now available in Nepal. It brings back the iconic rotating bezel, a brighter 3,000 nits display, alongside a bunch of new health and fitness tracking features. So let’s discuss the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, including its features, specifications, and official price.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic Overview:
Design and display
The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic blends timeless design with modern utility, featuring the iconic rotating bezel for precise control and a sleek stainless steel case that complements any style. Samsung has also introduced the “Cushion Design” here (the same one that we first saw on last year’s Galaxy Watch Ultra) with rounded square edges.
Whereas it now uses Samsung’s proprietary “Dynamic Lug System” for the band, that is unfortunately incompatible with the universal 20mm bands you might have lying around.
On the display front, the Watch 8 Classic now boasts a brighter 3000-nits AMOLED display. It’s protected by Sapphire Crystal glass against any sorts of scratches or bumps, although that “Cushion Design” means the Watch 8 Classic has a pretty small 1.34-inch display. Even though it’s a big 46mm watch.
Software and AI features
The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic runs on the newly redesigned One UI 8 Watch based on Wear OS 6, offering a cleaner interface. Alongside “Now Bar” for quick access to active apps and widgets like sleep, energy score, and workouts. This is also the first smartwatch to integrate Google’s Gemini AI. Meaning you can send messages, get email summaries, or set reminders using natural voice commands directly from your wrist.
For health, the Watch 8 Classic has a couple of AI-powered features as well. Like “Energy Score”, giving daily readiness insights, and “Sleep Coaching” for personalized bedtime guidance.

Health and fitness tracking
Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 8 brings a bunch of new health and fitness tracking features as well. Including “Running Coach” programs for 5Ks and marathons.
For wellness, it also introduces “Antioxidant Index” to reflect your dietary balance and give you an insight on how healthy you’ve been eating. Whereas it can also help monitor the stress level when you sleep with something called “Vascular Load”. Besides all this, the Galaxy Watch 8 series can also measure your AGEs Index, body composition, and all the other basic stuff.
Battery and connectivity
The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is fueled by 445 mAh battery, which has been paired with Samsung’s own Exynos W1000 chip that we first saw on the Galaxy Watch 7 (review) last year. It’s a 3nm processor which is impressively powerful and power-efficient as well, so we’re expecting 1 – 2 days of battery life here.
And since it supports fast charging, you can get almost 50% charge by plugging it in for half an hour.
For connectivity, the Watch 8 Classic comes with Bluetooth and LTE options. Although the one available in Nepal doesn’t have LTE connectivity. It features L1+L5 dual-frequency GPS though for accurate outdoor tracking during runs and rides.
