{"product_id":"samsung-galaxy-watch8-44mm-bluetooth-smartwatch","title":"Samsung Galaxy Watch8 44mm Bluetooth Smartwatch","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 44mm Galaxy Watch8 is the larger of the two Bluetooth models, and the size difference is mostly about the screen and the battery rather than the feature list — the 40mm runs the same processor and the same sensors. What you get for the extra 4mm is a 1.5-inch 480 x 480 panel and a 435mAh cell instead of 325mAh. This is the Bluetooth version, which is the only Galaxy Watch8 Samsung sells through its Hong Kong channel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA 3,000-nit display you can actually read outdoors\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSamsung quotes 3,000 nits peak on the Super AMOLED panel, which is the specification that matters most for a watch — a wrist display spends its life in daylight, angled away from you, being glanced at for a second. Always-on display is supported, and at 8.6mm thick the case stays under a shirt cuff despite the larger battery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSensors that go beyond heart rate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside the optical heart rate sensor and SpO2 there is an infrared skin temperature sensor and a BIA sensor for body composition — the second one estimates body fat and skeletal muscle from a brief measurement with two fingers on the case. ECG and blood pressure are also supported through Samsung Health Monitor, with conditions worth knowing before you buy; see the FAQ below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDual-band GPS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Watch8 uses L1 + L5 dual-band GNSS rather than single-band. The practical difference shows up between tall buildings and under tree cover, where a single-band receiver tends to draw your route through the side of a building. For running routes through Hong Kong's built-up districts, this is the more useful upgrade than any software feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCalls from the wrist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a speaker and a microphone on board, so calls can be taken on the watch while it is connected to your phone. Bluetooth 5.3, dual-band Wi-Fi and NFC are all present, and the case is rated 5ATM with IP68 and MIL-STD-810H.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;margin:16px 0\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;background:#f6f6f6\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd;background:#f6f6f6\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eModel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eSM-L330, 44mm, Bluetooth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eCase size and weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003e46.0 x 43.7 x 8.6 mm, 34.0 g without strap\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003e1.5-inch Super AMOLED, 480 x 480, up to 3,000 nits, always-on supported\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eMemory and storage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003e2 GB RAM, 32 GB storage (20.2 GB usable)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003e435 mAh, up to 30 hours with always-on display, wireless charger supplied\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eSensors\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eOptical heart rate, SpO2, ECG, infrared skin temperature, BIA, barometer, gyroscope, geomagnetic, ambient light\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003ePositioning\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eDual-band GNSS, L1 + L5\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eWater and dust\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003e5ATM, IP68, MIL-STD-810H\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eConnectivity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eBluetooth 5.3, Wi-Fi 2.4 + 5 GHz, NFC, speaker and microphone\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003ePlatform\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eWear OS Powered by Samsung, One UI 8 Watch\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003ePhone requirement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eAndroid 12.0 or above with 1.5 GB RAM or more. iOS is not supported\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eStrap\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eSamsung Dynamic Lug fitting, not a standard 20mm quick-release\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eStock type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:8px 10px;border:1px solid #ddd\"\u003eHong Kong licensed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGalaxy phone owners, who are the only ones who can use ECG and blood pressure measurement.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRunners who want dual-band GPS and do not want to carry a phone for basic tracking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone who wants a large, bright wrist display and takes calls through it during the day.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot for iPhone users.

If you carry a non-Samsung Android phone, treat these two features as unavailable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill my old Galaxy Watch straps fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Samsung states that the Watch8 series uses a new dedicated attachment mechanism and is not compatible with straps from previously released models, so Watch4, Watch5 and Watch6 straps will not fit.

Samsung does not sell an LTE Galaxy Watch8 through its Hong Kong channel, so any LTE unit here is parallel imported without local warranty, and eSIM activation depends on your carrier supporting watch eSIM.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRelated\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/smartwatch\"\u003eAll smartwatches and fitness bands\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/oneplus-watch-4-smartwatch-international-version\"\u003eOnePlus Watch 4\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/headphone\"\u003eAll headphones and earbuds\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/en\/policies\/shipping-policy\"\u003eDelivery policy\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Samsung","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48795796734146,"sku":"SAMSUNGGALAXYWATCH844MMBLUETOOTHSMARTWAT","price":1980.0,"currency_code":"HKD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/4310\/0610\/files\/hk-galaxy-watch8-l330-sm-l330nzsatgy-547756266.png?v=1789379082","url":"https:\/\/elechid.com\/en\/products\/samsung-galaxy-watch8-44mm-bluetooth-smartwatch","provider":"Elechid 音立","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
