Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is running now, and three smartwatch brands are running discounts of 25% or more on some of their popular models. Read on for more on the Samsung, Amazfit, and Garmin watches you can snag at a discount right now.
Garmin Forerunner 255, 255S, and 255 Music
Garmin makes some of the best running watches out there, and the Forerunner 255 line is consistently a favorite. (Strava reported that its predecessor, the Forerunner 245 Music, is the hands-down most popular device in the U.S. Even the 235 is still going strong. All different generations of the same beloved family.)
The series is up to 265 now, but the older 255 is still a great running watch that can serve as your workhorse for years to come. Multiple versions of the watch are on sale, including these:
The Garmin Forerunner 255 Music, which stores music locally so you can listen to tunes while leaving your phone at home, is also $299.99, down from $399.99
The Garmin Forerunner 255 S, which is a smidge smaller, the better to fit smaller wrists. Its display is 27.5mm instead of 33. The tradeoff is a smaller battery, lasting 12 days in smartphone mode compared to 14. It’s now $249.99, down from $349.99.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 5
Samsung Galaxy Watches are also on a discount for this event. As with the Forerunners, the best deals are on watches that are one model behind the latest-and-greatest. Galaxy Watches are now up to a 6 series, but we’re highlighting the deal on the 5:
This model of Samsung Galaxy Watch 5—with LTE and a 44-millimeter screen—is 29% off today, going for $257.37 instead of the list price of $359.99.
And this one, with a 40-millimeter screen, is $259.99 instead of $329.99. That’s “only” 21% off, but still a great deal if you’re looking for a smaller Galaxy Watch.
Amazfit GTR Mini
Finally, here’s a lower-priced watch that’s also on sale: the Amazfit GTR Mini. It’s just $89.99, down from $119.99.
