There’s not long left to preorder the brand new Galaxy Watch 8 at Samsung – and I’d encourage you to take a look if you’re interested in the new wearable, as there’s a mega trade-in deal available for just a few more days. With it, you can get the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 for as little as $149.99 (was $349.99) when you hand over your current eligible device.
All smartwatches qualify for trade-in, but you can only get the maximum $200 discount with the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7, Galaxy Watch 7 Classic, and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. However, any smartwatch will still receive a discount of at least $50. It’s worth looking through the list of eligible devices and seeing exactly what you’d get if you’re keen to upgrade.
Today’s best Samsung Galaxy Watch deal
We haven’t reviewed the Galaxy Watch 8 yet, but we’ve had a positive experience so far in our early impressions. The new slimmer design and health tracking features are a welcome improvement on past Galaxy Watches, especially the built-in running coach with 160 customized plans. Its battery is still fairly short compared to competitors, and the Dynamic Lug system hasn’t improved much, though.
It’s especially helpful for folks who need input on how to progress in their fitness journey, and for tracking and making sense of metrics. In fact, our reviewer called it the „most comprehensive change“ Samsung has made for its watch collection in years.
The Galaxy Watch 8 is just one product in Samsung’s latest Galaxy Watch line. While waiting for our final verdict on the Galaxy Watch 8, you can read our review on the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic. If you’re low on cash, you should also consider browsing cheaper options in our best smartwatches.
