Best Prime Day smartwatch deals
Below, we’re sharing the best smartwatch Prime Day 2023 deals. All of our recommendations are based on our previous coverage and reporting. We also included a handful of products we’ve tried ourselves, including Select Wellness Award winners. To ensure the quality of each deal, we’re running deals through price trackers like CamelCamelCamel — each product is either at its lowest price ever or its lowest price in at least three months.
Apple Watch SE (2023, 2nd Gen)
4.6-star average rating from 1,677 reviews on Amazon
Lowest price ever
Apple’s lowest-priced smartwatch is at its lowest price ever. I use it daily to track my workouts, check mobile notifications, take calls and pay public transit fees. Compared to the more expensive Apple Watch Series 8 and new Series 9, the SE has a smaller screen that only turns on when you raise your wrist, slower charging speeds, no crash detection, no blood oxygen levels data and no body temperature tracking.
Google Pixel Watch 1
4.3-star average rating from 1,764 reviews on Amazon
Lowest price ever
The Google Pixel Watch 2 launches on 10/12 — naturally, last year’s Pixel Watch 1 is significantly discounted. It has a traditional circular touchscreen display and uses various sensors to track data like heart rate, blood oxygen, electrocardiogram, sleep patterns and more. It syncs and displays this data through the Google Fit and FitBit app (Google bought FitBit in 2019). The Pixel Watch 1 is compatible with all types of Android phones, according to the brand.
Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 LTE
4.6-star average rating from 7,725 reviews on Amazon
Lowest price ever
Samsung released the Galaxy Watch 6 back in August, but the Watch 5 is worth considering at this deep discount, especially this cellular version. Voted best Android fitness tracker in our Select Wellness Awards, this smartwatch can track fitness and health data, as well as show mobile notifications, send text messages and more. We love its flat circular watch face, soft-touch wristband and lightweight (it weighs 28 grams — the Apple Watch SE and Google Pixel Watch 1 both weigh over 30 grams).
Garmin Vivoactive 4S
4.5-star average rating from 16,361 reviews on Amazon
Lowest price ever
This smartwatch from Garmin can be used to monitor sleep, heart rate and steps, as well as to track stress levels and your menstrual cycle. You can also download music onto the watch and preload easy-to-follow workouts that can be played on the screen. Other features include GPS navigation and contactless payment capabilities. The battery lasts for up to 7 days, according to the brand.
Garmin Forerunner 745
4.7-star average rating from 880 reviews on Amazon
Lowest price ever
Garmin’s Forerunner smartwatches are great for runners, cyclists, swimmers or any multi-sport athlete, in our experience. The Forerunner 745 is a good fit for triathletes in particular: it is compatible with cycling power meters and tracks multiple forms of swimming, including pool laps, open water swimming and swim-running. You can also combine multiple activities and track a custom multi-sport workout. The watch has an up to seven-day battery life, according to the brand.
Withings Scanwatch
4.1-star average from 7,436 reviews at Amazon
In addition to sporting a classic design with physical clock hands, this watch can track your sleep, heart rate and steps. It comes in a 38mm and 42mm size, both of which are on sale, and the battery lasts for up to 30 days on a single charge, according to the brand. It automatically syncs with Health Mate, a free iOS and Android app that allows you to track your metrics and earn badges for things like exercising and sleeping well.
Best Prime Day smartwatch accessory deals
Apple Watch Band — Milanese Loop
4.6-star average rating from 829 reviews on Amazon
Different bands make your Apple Watch more versatile, in our experience. The style-forward and size adjustable Milanese Loop is available in gold, silver or black stainless steel, and has a magnetic closure. This 41mm version also works with all 38mm, 40mm and 41mm Apple Watch case sizes, according to the brand.
