"Amazon typically cuts prices on its company-owned brands, such as Kindle, Ring, and Alexa devices, during this sales event. But more retailers, including Apple, Samsung, Oura, Google, and Garmin, also slash prices on their smartwatches and health trackers to participate. This makes October Prime Day a great opportunity to buy a wishlist item you've been putting off or complete your holiday shopping early."
"You might not see the same substantial deals you'll see on Amazon-owned devices, like Kindle or Alexa devices, on smartwatches. Still, retailers like Apple, Samsung, and Google, just debuted their new lineup of products, and as demand rises for the newer generations of smartwatches, the demand for older generations declines. This is great for budget-conscious consumers not interested in the newest and shiniest devices."
"I'm rounding up some of the best smartwatch and fitness tracker deals on sale during October Prime Day. I'm only including products I have either tested myself or that a ZDNET colleague has tested and recommended, because I know readers don't have time for random product mentions -- and neither do I."
Prime Big Deal Days runs October 7–8 and features thousands of discounted products, including many from Amazon-owned brands such as Kindle, Ring, and Alexa. Major retailers and manufacturers including Apple, Samsung, Oura, Google, and Garmin discount smartwatches and health trackers, creating opportunities to buy wishlist items or complete holiday shopping early. Smartwatch discounts may be smaller than on Amazon devices, but recent product launches push older generations into deeper discounts, benefiting budget-conscious buyers uninterested in the latest models. Deal selections prioritize tested and recommended devices and focus on meaningful price reductions, often around 20% or more.
