The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic only comes in a single size, 46mm, where 40mm and 44mm options are offered with the mainline Samsung Galaxy Watch 8. This is a watch for bigger wrists only, as it’s also thick and chunky due to the added height and heft from the bezel.

For users considering the base Galaxy Watch 8, it offers 32 GB of storage, which may be sufficient for lighter usage or those who don’t require extensive app or media storage. However, for power users, the Classic and Ultra models provide a clear advantage.
