Samsung unveiled its Galaxy Watch 8 earlier this year, at a not-so-friendly, but quite justifiable retail price of $350. If you’ve been wanting to upgrade but the high price tag has been holding you back, we bring good news.
Thanks to Amazon, you can now snap it up for just $250, after the retailer quite generously took a massive $100 off it. The deal is open to both Prime and non-Prime members, and you’ll even get free shipping with your purchase, which means $250 is quite literally all you’ve got to pay. The deal applies to the graphite and silver color options. Additionally, Amazon is also offering a free two-month Audible trial with your purchase, which is a service that lets you buy and stream audiobooks, podcasts, and audio shows.
Blend of Fitness and Health Features
At first glance, the watch looks quite similar to its predecessor, but that isn’t really the case. It features a sleek, thinner-than-ever silhouette and offers a snug fit with a sporty style. The screen is both spacious and bright, letting you view your stats, check notifications, keep an eye on the latest news, and more, comfortably throughout the day. The interface has improved, too, so using the thing is going to feel more effortless than ever.
Watch 8 comes packed with a range of health and fitness features. We’re talking Vascular Load monitoring that monitors your stress levels, plus an antioxidant index that uses BioActive Sensor to measure carotenoid levels in your skin. When worn at night, the watch tracks how well you sleep at night, and offers Advanced Sleep Coaching to provide you with tips and insights that can help you rest better. Based on your performance/energy levels of the previous day, it even creates a personalized Energy Score with the help of Galaxy AI. This score lets you see how ready your body is for the upcoming challenges, which you can take into consideration while planning stuff for the day. For instance, a score over 85 indicates you’re well-rested, making it an ideal day to take on the tasks you’ve been putting off. A lower score suggests you need rest, so it might be a good idea to skip an intense workout that day.
Fitness-wise, the watch tracks your steps and comes with a Running Coach that monitors your performance and gives you real-time feedback. There are a bunch of fitness programs built right in, which you can follow to train better. As for the battery, the life depends on how you’re using the watch, but you can expect it to last around 1-2 days. What’s more, Google Gemini integration brings an efficient AI assistant right to your wrist. You can use it to find quick answers, brainstorm ideas, get help with replies, and a lot more.
Connecting it to your smartphone via Bluetooth gets you all your important notifications right on the app. You can check emails or messages, plus manage music without pulling your phone out.
In short, if you’ve been wanting to grab the latest Samsung Galaxy Watch 8, now is a great time to make the move. This deal lets you grab it at a nice $100 discount, for just $250. There are two color options to choose from, and multiple band sizes available.
