Samsung has officially dropped the Galaxy Watch 8 in Nepal, which now brings a thinner design, improved display, and new AI-powered health tracking tools. So let’s dive into this article to discuss everything about the latest Samsung Galaxy Watch 8, including its official price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Overview
Design and display
The Galaxy Watch 8 is available in two sizes — 40mm and 44mm. It’s thinner than before, measuring about 11% less in thickness compared to the Galaxy Watch 7 (review). Samsung has also made the display 50% brighter. The overall design appears to be quite clean and minimal, built to sit flush under a sleeve.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Samsung also launched Watch 8 Classic and a slightly upgraded Galaxy Watch Ultra as well. Compared to the vanilla Watch 8, the Watch 8 Classic brings back the rotating bezel and a more traditional timepiece look.
Software and AI features
It runs on One UI 8 Watch, which is based on Wear OS 6. The new software brings small but useful changes like grouped notifications and the “Now Bar”, which lets you jump back into an activity or media session quickly.

What sets the Galaxy Watch 8 apart is the exclusive AI integration. Google Gemini is built-in for voice commands, but there’s more. You’re getting features like antioxidant detection, AI sleep coaching, real-time running assessments, and stress tracking during sleep. These AI tools are only available on the Watch 8 lineup and the Watch Ultra — older Galaxy watches won’t get them, even with updates.
Health and fitness tracking
Samsung is pushing health features further this year. The Watch 8 can estimate your antioxidant levels using a finger sensor — something that usually requires lab testing. It also tracks vascular load while you sleep, meaning it will give you insights on stress and recovery after a few nights of use.
Sleep tracking is more adaptive now, such that ideal sleep and wake times will be based on your habits. For runners, the watch provides a 12-minute assessment to rank your fitness level and then builds a custom training plan with coaching support during runs.
Battery and connectivity
Battery life has been slightly improved with an 8% bump in capacity. One should expect around 30 hours with the always-on display and up to 40 hours without it. LTE variants are also available, which cost extra.
