"The steep price drop for a brand-new 2025 Android smartwatch was a Black Friday and Cyber Monday shocker. Even more surprising is how that $250 price has endured all the way through the holiday shopping season and, apparently, beyond. The Galaxy Watch 8 earned stellar reviews when it dropped this past July and its sales numbers have been consistently excellent. It's not a refurbished or scratch-and-dent sale or a previous-generation markdown. Best advice? Don't question it, just buy it."
"The release of the Galaxy Watch8 series this summer was a huge hit, in no small part because of the number of major upgrades from the very popular Watch7 models. The body of the Galaxy Watch 8 is slimmer and more streamlined, and the screen brightness goes as high as 3,000 nits - 50 percent more than the 2,000-nit max of the Watch7. The Watch8 also comes with a bigger, longer-lasting battery than its predecessor."
Samsung's Galaxy Watch 8 (40mm Bluetooth, graphite or silver) is available at Amazon for $250, retaining its Black Friday price. The watch features a slimmer, more streamlined body and a screen that reaches up to 3,000 nits, 50% brighter than the Watch7. The Watch8 has a bigger, longer-lasting battery and improved Galaxy AI interactions that enhance fitness tracking and heart-rate analysis by filtering motion for clearer readings. AI compares performance to past activity, offering recommendations and prompts. The deal applies to new units, not refurbished or older-generation models, and the watch earned stellar reviews since July.
