Whether you have an eye for health and fitness or are just looking for a break from your phone, you’re going to want to check out Prime Day 2021. It arrives tomorrow, June 21, but the biggest Prime Day deals have started early. That’s right, Prime Day weekend is the best time to grab yourself some solid deals.

One of the handiest pieces of wearable tech on sale at Amazon’s annual event is the Samsung Galaxy Watch. We love Samsung’s range of smartwatches for their stellar battery life, ease of use, gorgeous design, and accurate fitness-tracking measurements. Keep reading to know what to expect for Prime Day Samsung Galaxy Watch deals this year.

There are more than a few Samsung Galaxy Watch variants, so you won’t be surprised to learn that you can expect a wide range of discounts in the Prime Day Samsung Galaxy Watch sales category.

If you’re fitness or health-focused and looking for a watch to keep count of your steps, strokes, or calories, you’ll want to keep an eye out for the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2, which should be heavily discounted. If, on the other hand, you’re looking for something to manage texts and emails — an alternative to pulling out your phone — the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 might be more your speed.

At the same time, don’t write off discounts you will probably see on older Samsung Galaxy Watches, like the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active. You can find incredible deals on older models in the Prime Day Galaxy Watch deals.

If you were looking to track your workouts with a new Samsung Galaxy Watch, 2020 was a banner year. Last year we saw the 44mm Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 with GPS and Bluetooth reduced to $50 from its original price of $270. We’re not kidding. It dropped by $220 — that’s more than 80% off!

At the same time, there were significant discounts on the 42mm Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 with GPS, Bluetooth, and unlocked LTE. In different deals, we saw it discounted from $430 to $280, from $600 to $290, and from $480 to $382. That’s a wide chasm of difference, but the key takeaway is that if you see a Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 in the $280 range, feel free to jump on that Prime Day Galaxy Watch sale.

Is a new Samsung Galaxy Watch something you need? If the answer is yes and you’ve just been waiting for the right time to pull the trigger, then you should definitely snag a new Samsung Galaxy Watch on Prime Day; it’s unlikely you’ll find it cheaper anywhere else. Using our guide to the best smartwatches will help you figure out the best one for you.

We’ve compared prices in the past, and it’s unlikely that the Samsung Galaxy Watch will be significantly discounted further for Black Friday or at any other time, so don’t hold off if you’re thinking you might find a better deal at a different sale.

Now, if you’re less certain that a new Samsung Galaxy Watch is for you, you might want to consider a few things before jumping into Prime Day Samsung Galaxy Watch sales. First, think about your budget. Before you get enticed into splurging on a new smartwatch, figure out exactly what you can afford to spend, then stick to that number. Just as importantly, keep your eyes open for really significant price drops in Samsung Galaxy Watch sales. What we don’t want to happen is for you to get enticed by great-looking Samsung Galaxy Watch deals, which are ultimately only for 10% or 15% off, and then spend more than you wanted.

We want you to come away from Prime Day with great tech, not regrets.

We review a lot of health wearables. This one tracks something most ignore.

We've discussed the Hume Band’s design ethos before; specifically, how its screen-free, fabric-wrapped profile respects your attention span. But for those who treat their health as a long-term asset, the form factor is secondary to the data.

Rokid’s AI glasses offer a more affordable route to wearables than Meta Ray-Ban

The AI Glasses Style is completely screenless and weighs just 38.5 grams, making it light enough to wear all day without discomfort. Instead of visual overlays, it relies on voice, audio, and a built-in 12MP Sony camera capable of shooting 4K video in clips up to 10 minutes.

Forget the watch, Apple’s AI Pin might be its next wearable move

According to the details shared so far, the wearable is still in the very early stages of development. In fact, Apple could launch it or even cancel it, depending on how engineering and market conditions evolve. That said, people familiar with the project say the company is targeting a 2027 release window, a move that would position Apple directly against other AI wearable efforts from competitors like OpenAI and others experimenting with similar form factors.
