The Galaxy Watch 8<\/a> is Samsung’s latest smartwatch, and it got a very healthy 8.2 out of 10 in our recent review, despite questioning our reviewer’s running skills. But with a starting price of $350, it’s not necessarily cheap. Right now, there are a few deals to take advantage of to soften the blow.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Amazon<\/a> and Samsung<\/a> are offering various deals on Samsung’s latest smartwatch<\/a>, but the better opportunity depends on what you’re looking for. Whether you’re after freebies or a straight-up discount, these offers can get you more for your money.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Amazon doesn’t have a direct discount on the Watch 8. The watch is full price, but the retailer is throwing in not one, not two, but four\u00a0free Samsung SmartTag 2 trackers. These trackers normally cost up to $100 for a four-pack, with a single one costing up to $30. If you already know you want a few SmartTags to keep track of your items, like your phone or keys, this is a great option, since you’ll get $100 worth for free. There are no additional steps needed; this is a bundle offer from Amazon<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Samsung<\/a> decided to switch things up a bit. The company is offering a direct $50 off the watch, reducing the Watch 8 to just $300. Plus, it’s also throwing in a free extra watch band. To ensure you get the $50 discount and the free band, click “No trade-in” and manually select the band under the “Make your Galaxy epic with an exclusive” section. But that’s not all. Samsung is also throwing in a $50 credit with your purchase. The only catch is that you must use this credit immediately on an accessory, like a SmartTag or earbuds.<\/p>\n

Why this deal matters<\/p>\n

The excellent Galaxy Watch 8 was just released at the end of July, not even a month ago, and we’re already seeing great discounts. With direct discounts and freebies, the better deal depends on what you want here. Amazon might be the better offer if multiple SmartTags are appealing. But if you’d prefer a little more variety, Samsung is offering a direct discount, an extra band and an accessories credit. But there’s no denying that both deals are noteworthy. \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Galaxy Watch 8 is Samsung’s latest smartwatch, and it got a very healthy 8.2 out of 10…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":145983,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[705,158,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-145982","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-gadgets","8":"tag-gadgets","9":"tag-technology","10":"tag-united-states","11":"tag-unitedstates","12":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115029057574780667","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/145982","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=145982"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/145982\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/145983"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=145982"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=145982"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=145982"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
