Hi Starr, Thanks for taking the time to reach out and share your sentiments with us regarding your experience using the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic. We value your feedback as we continue to innovate while improving our product line to suit the needs of our customer base. While the Galaxy Watch8 Classic case measures 46mm externally, the actual display screen may appear smaller than other Galaxy Watches due to the physical rotating bezel and thick outer casing.
