These Samsung Watches Are on Sale for the Lowest Price Right Now
The Samsung Galaxy Watch FE , named PCMag’s ” Best Android Smartwatch of 2024 ,” is currently priced at $199.99 (down from $249.99), its lowest price ever, according to price trackers . Designed specifically for Android users (Android 10 or later), this compact smartwatch has a 40mm diagonal and a 1.19-inch Super AMOLED display. However, its bezels are a bit chunky, which may not be to everyone’s taste. Setup is simple, but requires a few additional applications. To get started, you’ll need Galaxy Wearable, Samsung Health for access to detailed health metrics, and Samsung Health Monitor for ECG. It’s a bit of a hassle, but totally doable if you’re already in the Samsung ecosystem.
Galaxy Watch FE monitors important health aspects by tracking heart rate, sleep stages, blood oxygen levels and body composition indicators such as body fat percentage and BMI. Snoring detection is also available, but only if you are using a Samsung phone. However, it lacks some high-end features such as sleep apnea detection, skin temperature sensors, and Galaxy AI. As for the lifestyle, it has its own characteristics. You’ll have access to a variety of third-party apps through the Google Play Store, with popular options like Audible, Calm, Spotify, and WhatsApp readily available. The watch also allows you to make calls, send text messages and receive notifications, making it a practical everyday companion.
Available in black , silver, and rose gold , the Galaxy Watch FE weighs just 0.9 ounces but is built to last. With an IP68 rating, 5 ATM water resistance, and MIL-STD-810H certification, it’s rugged enough to withstand dust, water submersion, and extreme temperatures. The Watch FE’s battery life is decent, but not groundbreaking. According to this PCMag review , you can expect 27 hours of use with the display always on, or 40 hours with it off. If you need longer battery life, the OnePlus Watch 2 is a better choice, currently priced at $249.95 (down from $299.99).
