The best Apple Watch Prime Day deals
Let’s face it. If you’re on iOS, the Apple Watch is the best all-around smartwatch out there. On Prime Day, many different colors and sizes of the Series 7 are around $50 off, all with sport bands.
The best Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 Prime Day deals
For Android users, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 is your best bet at the moment. That’s because it’s got Wear OS 3, which is a hybrid platform between Samsung’s Tizen OS and Google’s Wear OS.
The best smartwatch and fitness tracker Prime Day deals
It’s not all Samsung and Apple. Here are some alternatives in case neither of those floats your boat.
- The budget-friendly Amazfit GTS 2 Mini in pink is an affordable $67.99 ($32 off). It has GPS, Alexa, 14 days of battery life, and tracks SpO2. You can also get it in black.
- Amazfit is also selling the Bip S Pro for $49.99 in pink. You get an amazing 40 days of battery life, an always-on display, and built-in GPS.
- The Withings Sleep is a great sleep tracker for people who hate wearing watches to bed. It’s 30 percent off for $69.95.
- The Garmin Instinct Solar is down to $199.99 (from $349.99). It’s a rugged sports watch that features solar charging, built-in GPS, and dozens of in-depth sports metrics.
- The last-gen Garmin Forerunner 945 is $220 off at $379.99. This is still a good outdoors watch for triathletes, with two weeks of battery, built-in GPS, NFC payments, and in-depth health and fitness metrics.
- The 42mm Fossil Gen 6 in purple is $209 (from $299). While newer Wear OS watches are on the horizon, this one is eligible for an upgrade to Wear OS 3. It’s got Alexa, blood oxygen monitoring, GPS, and contactless payments.
- There’s also the 44mm Fossil Gen 6 with a dark gray metal link band for $209 (from $319). It’s also available in black and in stainless steel with a leather strap for the same price (from $299).
- The Michael Kors Gen 6 is 37 percent off at $269. It’s got the same features as the Fossil Gen 6 (because it’s made by Fossil, too) but has a more luxe vibe with a two-tone stainless steel link band.
- Meanwhile, the Skagen Gen 6 is down to $207 (from $295). Again, this is another smartwatch under the Fossil umbrella but with a more Danish minimalist style.
