Samsung Galaxy smartwatches are on sale on Amazon — save $50
TL;DR: The health-tracking, long-lasting Samsung Galaxy smartwatch comes in two different sizes — 42mm and 46mm — which retail for $329 and $349, respectively, but you can save $50 by ordering yours from Amazon.
There are a lot of great things about the Apple Watch Series 4 (the latest iteration of Tim Cook’s smartwatch), like its massive high-res display and advanced health tracking tools. But there are also a few not-so-great things about the Apple Watch Series 4 — namely, the fact that it starts at $399 and has a measly battery life of 18 hours.
Don’t get us wrong: We love the Series 4; Mashable’s Ray Wong gave it an impressive score of 4.5 out of 5 when he reviewed it last year. But we also know it’s nice to have options.
The Samsung Galaxy smartwatch is an awesome Apple Watch alternative that excels in the two places the Series 4 flounders, offering a lengthy battery life of up to four days and costing far less. (More on that last part momentarily.) Better yet, it supports wireless Bluetooth pairing with both iOS *and* Android devices.
Some other cool things about the Galaxy Watch: It can track both workouts and sleep cycles, monitor your heart rate, send you reminders to stay active, recognize when you switch activities, and offer guided meditation for stress relief. Not a fitness buff? You’ll still love the Galaxy Watch, as it can also be used to make and take calls, answer texts, and pull up game scores and headlines. And since it’s been constructed with heavy-duty materials like Corning Gorilla Glass DX+, it won’t scratch with daily wear.
The Galaxy Watch comes in two different sizes, both of which are sale on Amazon for $50 off their MSRPs:
