GW 8 Action Button
I feel the same way you do about the Action Button — it’s solid hardware but the software options are so limited that it ends up feeling like wasted potential. Most people don’t use any of the preset actions because they’re either redundant or not useful, and Samsung hasn’t opened it up for real cus

F off Samsung (Galaxy watch8 required to use running coach)
GW7/GW8 has a new processor, improved health sensors and GPS compared to your GW6. Maybe the Running Coach is designed to run on newer hardware, which is why the GW6 and older aren't supported.

Looking to upgrade from my 4-year-old Galaxy Watch 4. Galaxy Watch 8 or OnePlus Watch 2?
I am not a brand loyalist, so my phone right now isn't a Samsung. It's an Oppo Find X9, I had samsung a few years ago when I bought the GW4. I really like the look of GW8. My GW4 looks shit since I didn't use any screen protector or anything of that sorts on it, it's also lagging like hell ever sinc

Galaxy watch 6 classic, watch 7 or watch 8 classic?
Watch 6 Classic if you really like the rotating bezel Watch 7 if you like a bit faster, and smoother wstch with newer updates (smoothness can be achived on the GW6C aswell 'kind off' if you set up the animation scaling to your needs, and what your watch are good with -> it is found in the developer
