"Over the course of the day, we tested the features of the innovative smart phone and fitness watch combo. We started the day with a meditation at The Ora Method, using the Watch8's Breathing Exercise app, which guides your inhales and exhales. After that, we hopped over to a sculpt class at Casa Cipriani, logging the workout through the Samsung Health app - which tracks your standard time, steps, heart rate and calories burned."
""I trained really hard, I didn't prioritize rest or recovery at all and I finished in not a great state. I kind of lost my passion for [running], and I think that's because I didn't take care of all the other elements of my life." With the Watch8, Holt continued: "When this partnership [with Samsung] came about, it was such perfect timing, because it's about prioritizing all areas of wellness."
Samsung hosted an NYC Wellness Tour to celebrate the Galaxy S25 Edge and Galaxy Watch8, with Claire Holt as host. Attendees tested the phone-and-watch combo across meditation, a sculpt class, and a sound bath. The Watch8's Breathing Exercise app guided inhales and exhales during meditation. The Samsung Health app logged sculpt-class metrics including time, steps, heart rate, and calories burned. The watch tracked stress levels before and after the sound bath. Claire Holt praised the Watch8's recovery tools and Sleep tracker, and highlighted the Running Coach feature that uses a 12-minute fitness test to build training plans and monitor asymmetry. The watch's light weight improved wearability.
