The chic Fossil Gen 4 Explorist HR smartwatch is down to just $179 on Amazon

By

Smartwatches are no longer the boxy and boring accessories they once were. They have now evolved to look really chic and are sometimes barely distinguishable from a traditional watch. One of the most stylish options for men is the

Fossil Gen 4 Explorist HR, and it’s discounted

on Amazon for 35% less right now.

Normally $275, the retail giant brings its price down to $179. This offer applies to the blue and rose gold variants with leather straps. Whether you’re looking for a gift or just looking to up your style game, you better not miss out on this deal. If you’re an Apple enthusiast, however, we also spotted a deal on the GPS and cellular Apple Watch Series 3.

The Explorist HR is a men’s watch through and through. It sports a combination of classic mechanical design and an understated, masculine aesthetic that suits both casual and formal looks. Build quality is elegant that you may often find yourself wanting to show it off. You can even change the watch face from time to time or personalize it with your favorite Facebook or Instagram photos.

When connected to your phone, this smartwatch can display real-time notifications. From calls and text messages to app and weather alerts, it will notify you right away through a gentle buzz. You can also use it to manage your calendar, set custom goals and alarm, and control your music.

The experience is particularly smooth for Android users (OS 4.4 and up) — responding to messages and answering calls directly from the watch is possible, and battery life is significantly better. iPhone users (iOS 9.3 and up) will have to put up with non-interactive notifications and quicker battery draining.

Although far from being a full-fledged activity tracker, the Explorist HR has a bunch of fitness metrics up its sleeves. If you’re into running, you can count on the watch’s untethered GPS to track your distance. It can also measure heart rate automatically during a yoga or workout session. For further health and fitness tracking, you may opt to download the Google Fit to get coaching and recommendations.

The

Fossil Gen 4 Explorist HR smartwatch

may not have the bells and whistles found in the more expensive Apple Watch or Fitbit models, but it definitely is a solid option if you’re after superior style, reliable connectivity, and basic fitness tracking. Snag the blue or rose variants with leather bands for only $179 on Amazon.

TCL S Class S4 LED 4K TV.

If you're looking for a super large TV to get you thru the super hot summer we're projected to continue having this year, we may have found the one you're looking for. And it is on sale. It's the 85-inch version of the TCL S450G, now for just $900. That is $500 down from its typical price of $1,400, making it one of the largest TVs that you can get for under $1,000 right now. It really is one of the best TV deals. So, tap the button below to check it out on Best Buy, where the deal is happening. Note that we don't know when this deal will end, so please do act now if you want the TCL S450G so you can lock this great price in.

Why you should buy the TCL S450G
The 85-inch TCL S450G is a 4K TV that refreshes at 60Hz and uses standard LED technology. It utilizes the Google TV interface, making it similar in functionality to older Android TVs, and can stream via Netflix, Prime Video, HBO Max, Disney+, YouTube, and tons of other streaming services. Connecting your own media, as well as sound systems and other peripherals, is easy via the three HDMI inputs (that include eARC). When one of those connects is a gaming console, you'll appreciate the TCL S450G's Auto Game Mode, which includes Automatic Low Latency Mode (ALLM). And, if you're playing a twitchy racing game (or just watching the races) then the TCL S450G's Motion Rate 240 will be much appreciated. It keeps things looking smooth even when the action tries its hardest to make that impossible.

Hurry — this LG 70-inch 4K TV just had its price slashed to $600
hisense h65 series lg un7070 samsung 7 4k tv deals best buy summer sale 2020 55 inch 2 720x720

LG is well-known for making some of the best TVs on the market, and it's no surprise that many other manufacturers use their panels. Of course, that does tend to mean that LG TVs can get expensive, especially if you're going for larger sizes like the 70-inch LG UQ75 4K TV. Luckily, a great deal from Best Buy right now is discounting this excellent 70-inch TV down to $600 from $630.

Why you should buy the 70-inch LG UQ75 4K TV
While the 70-inch LG UQ75 4K TV doesn't come with fancy panels like QLED or OLED, the panel is still absolutely gorgeous, especially for a 70-inch TV that's going for budget prices. With a sharp image and relatively great contrast, it's certainly an enjoyable experience. The TV also comes loaded with various types of HDR, such as HDR10, which is just a step below HDR10+ and HLG, the latter of which is a popular standard for sports broadcasters, which is a big plus if you love watching sports. Unfortunately, the base refresh rate of the TV is 60Hz, but that still should be enough for most consoles and mid-range gaming PCs, and there's also the benefit that the 70-inch size makes this perfect for split screen games, which we're a fan of.
