Which one fits you
On wrists narrower than about 49mm, the Samsung Galaxy Watch8 - LTE · 40mm is the safer pick — it stays proportionate down to roughly 45mm, where the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 starts to hang over the edge. Above 49mm both sit cleanly, and the Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 gives you more presence.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch8 - LTE · 40mm and Xiaomi Redmi Watch 6 share a near-identical 40.4mm case, so wrist presence comes down to thickness, lug-to-lug and weight.
