The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 has officially entered discount territory after the launch of the Galaxy Watch 7. The 30%-off deal is currently available at both Best Buy and Samsung US, but Amazon knocks the price down even further, offering a 33% discount on the previous-gen Galaxy smartwatch.

Samsung recently launched the Galaxy Watch 7 alongside the Galaxy Watch Ultra, but that doesn't necessarily make the older versions immediately obsolete — especially not when they can be had at a lower price, like the Galaxy Watch 6 can, thanks to a recent discount.

At the time of writing, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 is discounted from its usual price of $299.99 to $209.99 at Best Buy and Samsung US, however Amazon has the Galaxy Watch 6 discounted by 33% for a final price of $206.05. 

It's worth mentioning that these discounts only apply to the 40 mm Galaxy Watch 6 in the regular Bluetooth version. Buyers will have to cough up $249.99 for the Watch 6 LTE from Amazon, — still a healthy 29% off the usual retail price — while the same spec will cost you $259.99 from Samsung US. The larger Galaxy Watch 6 variants are also on sale at Amazon and Samsung, but stepping up in size also increases the price once again to $229.99 at Amazon for the 44 mm Bluetooth version and $277.75 for the 44 mm LTE version

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 is a former flagship smartwatch by Samsung with an aluminium body and a 1.3-inch Super AMOLED display. The base model features both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity, with compatibility for GPS, Glonass, Beidou, and Galileo positioning systems. 

In our review of the 44 mm LTE Samsung Galaxy Watch 6, we were impressed by its incredibly bright 1897 cd/m² display and accurate navigation and tracking. Our review also found the automatic workout tracking to be effective and convenient. However, when the watch was left to its devices with all the automatic features and the always-on display active, we found that it only lasted a little over 24 hours. 

In terms of health and workout tracking sensors, the Galaxy Watch 6 measures everything from blood-oxygen saturation and heart rate to sleep quality, stress levels, and body composition. All of this information can be accessed via the Samsung Health or Samsung Wearable app, which is available for any Android device running Android 5.0 or newer, and because the Galaxy Watch 6 runs on Wear OS, there is a veritable smorgasbord of apps available for the smartwatch.
