Does the Galaxy Watch8 LTE 44mm fit your wrist?
The 40mm suits wrists of about 13–19 cm round; the 44mm, 14.5–20.5 cm. Both work from 14.5 to 19 cm, where it is a choice between more skin either side (the 40mm) and a case that fills the wrist (the 44mm). Under 14.5 cm only the 40mm's lugs stay on the wrist; over 19 cm the 40mm starts to look small.
