An active summer, looking to track steps or getting into fitness, adding a smartwatch can help keep a routine. For anyone looking for a deal on the latest sportswatch, three retailers have cut the price of Garmin models, with many set to arrive by Father’s Day this weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Shoppers still on the lookout for a pressie for their dad to open this Sunday, June 15th, we’ve found three retailers offering price cuts on a range of Garmin watches. A brand with higher prices than the likes of Fitbit<\/a>, the added cost comes with good performance ratings and in-depth health statistics for wearers.\u00a0<\/p>\n As Amazon<\/a>, HSamuel,<\/a> and Argos<\/a> all cut prices of different Garmin models, offering something for each type of shopper. For those on the lookout for a smaller multi-sport tracking watch, a GPS one for tracking runs, or one to monitor their heart rate, we’ve found the deals to suit.\u00a0<\/p>\n Starting with the cheapest model, over at Argos it drops the price of the Garmin Forerunner 165 GPS model to \u00a3199.99 – down from the usual \u00a3249 cost. As the name suggests, this model is ideal for keen runners. It has a pace, distance and heart rate monitor all displayed on an AMOLED touchscreen display.\u00a0<\/p>\n Despite the cheaper price, especially compared to other Garmin models, this does come with a built-in GPS and a lightweight design. This is recommended for city runners, as its lack of mapping features makes it less reliable for a detailed overview of terrain – instead, the Garmin Forerunner 255 could be an option.\u00a0<\/p>\n Something worth flagging to shoppers, the model is actually available for less at Amazon – with this \u00a3183 price<\/a>. However, it’s definitely worth looking at with caution, as the Amazon sale price is from a third part retailer, not Garmin despite being dispatched by Amazon.\u00a0<\/p>\n HSamuel<\/a> is offering the biggest discount around, as \u00a3325 is cut of the price of the Garmin Epix Gen 2.<\/a> Dropping it down from \u00a3649.99 to \u00a3324.99. This model is still recommended for fitness but it delves into health stats a lot more than other models.\u00a0<\/p>\n It offers users 24\/7 health monitoring and has more advanced satellite coverage and TopoActive Mapping. When it comes to design there’s a sleek stainless steel bezel, silicone strap (more ideal for training) and a fibre-reinforced polymer case.<\/p>\n Looking elsewhere, the Epix Pro (Gen 2) is reduced at Goldsmiths down to \u00a3500<\/a>, from an original \u00a3829.99 price, arguably the biggest price drop of them all.\u00a0<\/p>\n Shoppers looking for a Garmin model that’s an all rounder when it comes to sports and activities – the Fenix 6S<\/a> could be a model to look at. Reduced by 18% at Amazon<\/a>, this model is now \u00a3436, instead of the usual \u00a3529.99 price. It comes with a host of the usual sport tracking features but goes a step further in tracking stress levels, calories and sleep qualities.\u00a0<\/p>\n Plus, it has more features to put it in the category of a smartwatch,\u00a0 as it can be synced up with a compatible smartphone to use Garmin Pay Contactless or send phone notifications to users’ wrists as they come in.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An active summer, looking to track steps or getting into fitness, adding a smartwatch can help keep a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":175113,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3160],"tags":[324,4690,3191,982,1685,3314,246,198,3317,53,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-175112","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-gadgets","8":"tag-amazon","9":"tag-apple-watch","10":"tag-argos","11":"tag-deals","12":"tag-gadgets","13":"tag-garmin","14":"tag-shopping","15":"tag-sky-sports","16":"tag-smartwatch","17":"tag-technology","18":"tag-uk","19":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114663665468316255","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175112","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=175112"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/175112\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/175113"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=175112"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=175112"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=175112"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
