If you’re looking for an all-round smartwatch and prefer Android to Apple, this deal on a Silver 46mm Samsung Galaxy Smartwatch is the one for you, with $91 off right now. The original Samsung Galaxy Watch boasts stellar battery life — a single charge should get you through four to five days, depending on your usage — as well as a sharp display and traditional design with a touch of sporty style. We love the rotating bezel navigation, which makes a satisfying clicky sound and allows you to navigate apps and menus without your fingers obscuring the screen, and the My Day feature, which gives you an overview of your day with calendar events and reminders when you wake up. Its 1.2-inch Super AMOLED screen is bright and clear, and it’s water-resistant up to 5 ATM. In the box, you’ll get an additional strap in two sizes, large and small, a wireless charging dock, and a travel adapter.

Offering up to eight days of battery life in smartwatch mode and up to six hours in GPS and music mode, the Garmin Vivoactive 4 is the one to go for if you want a watch that tracks almost everything. Seriously — you can track everything from your respiration and hydration to your sleep, heart rate, stress, menstrual cycle, and energy levels, and there’s a Pulse Oximeter too, as well as 20 preloaded GPS and indoor sports apps. If you’re into early morning or late-night runs, safety and tracking features like incident detection and assistance keep you safe by sending your location to friends or family — when paired with a compatible device — and you can download your favorite tracks or playlists for Spotify, Deezer, or Amazon Music, so you’ll always have the perfect soundtrack for your run or workout. You can get $50 off a 45mm Garmin Vivoactive 4 in black right now on Amazon — but if the Vivoactive 4 isn’t quite right for you, there are plenty of other great deals on Garmin Smartwatches available in the run-up to Prime Day.

As the colder, darker nights draw in, we’re all more focused on wellness, and this is the smartwatch deal to go for if you want a watch that offers advanced health monitoring while also doing everything your phone can do. Right now you can get $31 off a 45mm Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 in Mystic Silver, with LTE connectivity. Leave your phone at home and make calls, send texts, stream music, and get notifications right from your watch, pay for your morning coffee using Samsung Pay, and track your run with automatic tracking — there’s even an in-built running coach to keep you motivated. We love that the Galaxy Watch 3 tracks your sleep automatically, monitors your stress level, and helps you find your inner calm, with breathing guides to get you centered when you’re feeling overwhelmed. Its traditional style looks great on your wrist, it has excellent battery life, and it’s water-resistant, so you don’t need to take it off in the shower.
