Amazon takes a hefty $120 off the Samsung Gear Sport smartwatch price tag

The arrival of the new, near-perfect Series 5 has solidified the Apple Watch’s status as the best in the smartwatch sector. For Android users, however, Samsung remains a popular choice. If you’re in the market for a reliable, feature-rich wearable that you can pair with your Android phone, check out Amazon’s

deal on the Samsung Gear Sport.

The giant retailer brings the standard price of the Gear Sport from $300 down to $180. On top of this $120 discount is the chance to slash an extra $50 off instantly when your Amazon Rewards Visa gets approved.

The Samsung Gear Sport is compatible with both Android and iOS smartphones, but the experience is significantly smoother for Android, especially for Samsung Galaxy phones. Every notification is actionable and can be easily deleted directly from the watch. You’ll also be able to send emojis, choose from canned responses, type on the keyboard, and even use your voice to respond to a message. iPhone users, on the other hand, will have to put up with limitations on notifications and other features.

Perhaps the most innovative feature of this device is its rotating bezel, which offers a convenient way to interact with the watch. A simple turn of the bezel will allow you to check notifications, view widgets, and scroll through messages.

As the “Sport” moniker indicates, the Samsung Gear Sport is a fitness-focused wearable. It offers support for various workouts and exercises, including walking, running, and cycling, with the option to manually start sessions or let the watch detect them automatically. It can also provide personal coaching, monitor daily progress, check calorie balance, and track activities with heart rate and GPS mapping. The watch is swim-ready and water-resistant for up to 50 meters.

Slim and lightweight, the Gear Sport is ideal for everyday use and workouts. Its silicone strap feels so pleasant on the skin that you’ll hardly notice you’re wearing it. It looks great even with non-sporty outfits, but you have the option to swap out the band for further personalization.

The Samsung Gear Sport strikes the balance between form and function. It may be two years old already but it’s still a solid entryway into the world of smart wearables. Don’t miss the chance to

score this brand-name smartwatch

for a hefty $120 less on Amazon.

Samsung just slashed the price of this massive 85-inch 4K TV
The Samsung 70-inch Class 7 Series 4K TV in a living room.

Even though Prime Day is over, that doesn't mean there aren't many great Samsung TV deals you can still take advantage of. For example, this massive 85-inch Samsung CU7000 4K TV, which usually goes for $1,300, but can be yours for just $1,200 today. Even though that's not a substantial discount, an 85-inch TV for a little over $1,000 is an impressive price coming from Samsung, which doesn't make many budget-oriented TVs.

Why you should buy the 85-inch Samsung CU7000 4K TV
While you might not find the most advanced panel tech on the CU7000, like OLED, it still uses a great panel that has a lot of the modern features you'd expect, such as HDR10+, which we were somewhat surprised to see at this price point on such a big screen. Of course, the whole thing plays in 4k, which might cause some screen door effect given the lower pixel density, but since it's 85 inches, you're not likely to be sitting very close to the TV anyway, so it shouldn't be a problem. In fact, big TVs like this are great for playing split screen games, and while the TV's peak refresh rate is 60Hz, that's still perfectly fine for these types of games regardless of the console or gaming PC you're using.

amazon echo buds 2023 review 7

If you're thinking about buying wireless earbuds but you're on a tight budget, you should check out the third-generation Amazon Echo Buds. They were just released last month, but they're already part of this year's Prime Day deals with a $15 discount that makes their already low price of $50 even more affordable, as you can get them for just $35. They're a steal for this cheap, but a lot of shoppers will be thinking that as well, so it's highly recommended that you buy the wireless earbuds right now while stocks are still available.

Why you should buy the third-generation Amazon Echo Buds
The third-generation Amazon Echo Buds are already included in our roundup of the best cheap headphones and earbuds because they come with a price that's tough to beat. There's a lot of technologies that you can find in the best wireless earbuds, like the Apple AirPods Pro 2, that are missing in the Amazon Echo Buds 2023, including active noise cancellation and wireless charging, but for what they cost, they're considered a decent set of wireless earbuds. They even slightly make up for the lack of ANC through a semi-in-ear design that helps reduce noise.
