The Galaxy Watch 8 is right around the corner, and to celebrate, Samsung is offering a massive discount on last year’s Galaxy Watch 7 model. The watch dropped by almost 50% during Prime Day, and it is still at the same lowest price ever, according to price tracking tools. If you’re a Samsung fan, or an Android user looking to add an excellent smartwatch to your setup, it's a good time to pick up the Galaxy Watch 7.
The smaller 40mm watch is currently discounted to $159.99 (originally $299.99); the previous lowest price was $199. It’s only available in Cream. The larger 44mm model is discounted to $199.99 (originally $329.99). Both of these are the Bluetooth model, meaning you'll need to depend on wifi or keep your phone within Bluetooth distance to stay connected to the internet.
A wearOS smartwatch, with Samsing One UI
The Galaxy Watch 7 works well with both the Android and Samsung ecosystems. It’s based on the WearOS 5 platform, but also supports Samsung’s One UI Watch 6 interface. The watch is running a 3nm Exynos W1000 processor, which is faster than the previous model. There’s also a round screen (1.3 inches on the 40mm, and 1.5 inches on the 44mm), and the Watch 7 boasts a brighter 2,000-nit Super AMOLED display.
The battery lasts 30 hours, and there’s also support for Qi wireless charging up to 10W. There’s 32GB onboard storage, and dual-frequency GPS for precise workout tracking. The BioActive sensor has been upgraded with more LEDs (13 as opposed to four in the Watch 6) for improved accuracy in tracking heart rate, sleep quality, blood pressure, blood oxygen levels, and stress—especially during high-intensity workouts.
The Galaxy Watch 7 also comes with Galaxy AI, which powers an "energy score," wellness tips, suggested replies for notifications, and Sleep Apnea Detection. Keep in mind that Galaxy watches may have premium health subscriptions coming soon. You can read more about the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 on PCMag's "excellent" review.
