Of course, Gemini is now onboard, making the Galaxy Watch 8 series the first smartwatches to come out of the box with native support for Google's AI assistant. Samsung has also added a Now Bar, a popular feature on Galaxy phones, which displays tasks running in the background. The new Classic model also features the signature cushion design introduced last year, along with the Dynamic Lug System. And, as you would expect, Samsung offers sleep, workout, heart activity, and more health-tracking features.

Google just wrapped up its Made by Google 2025 event, officially unveiling an expanded hardware lineup that feels more like a thoughtful evolution than a dramatic overhaul. The company revealed four new smartphones, a redesigned smartwatch, and surprisingly affordable earbuds, all centered around their new Tensor G5 processor and deeper AI integration. While the changes might seem incremental on the surface, the details tell a more interesting story about where Google sees mobile technology heading.

The new Watch8 series models marked the initial roll-out of Gemini AI on WearOS, and Google promised to expand to more smartwatches running Wear OS 4 or newer.
