The Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic was released only a few weeks ago, yet we’re already seeing some initial deals on the highly anticipated and well-rated smartwatch – especially if you’re looking to upgrade your existing wearable.
The deal I’ve just spotted means you can snap up the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic for as little as $249 (was $499). There are several smartwatches you can trade in to get the full $250 discount, but that includes the standard, previous-generation Galaxy Watch 7. Check out the full list of eligible trade-in devices to see what you can get for yours, but even if you have nothing to trade, Samsung are offering $100 in Samsung Credit to use elsewhere in the store.
Our senior fitness and wearables editor has completed a full review of the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic and confirms that it’s the full package, so this could be a fantastic time to upgrade.

The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic also features a rotating bezel and a programmable Quick button (not an Action button that Apple Watch Ultra owners would be familiar with), which offers more interaction options than the standard Galaxy Watch 8.
Samsung has also given it a Galaxy Watch Ultra-style redesign, with a thicker cushion and a Quick Button, in addition to the excellent rotating bezel mechanism. The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic performs well and looks fantastic while doing so.
The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is just one product in Samsung’s latest Galaxy Watch line. If you’d like to broaden your options and weigh up each one’s pros and cons, then our best smartwatches guide is what you need.
