Snag the Samsung Galaxy FE at a Record Low of $150 Right Now

Reach your fitness goals without overspending thanks to this $50 discount on the Samsung Galaxy FE smartwatch.

Spring is well underway and many of us are revising our wellness goals so we can prepare for a fun, active summer. If you want to reach your goals, a new fitness tracker or smartwatch can help you monitor your health stats, so you can measure your progress. For those who want to stay in the Android ecosystem, a new Samsung Galaxy Watch is a good way to go. The Galaxy Watch FE LTEis budget-friendly and includes many of the same features as the more pricey Samsung Galaxy Watch6. Its regular asking price is $200, but a new Amazon discount brings it down to a new low price of just $150. This saves you $50, and buying now might be a great way to avoid potential price hikes due to impending tariffs.

From sleep tracking to heart-rate monitoring and offering performance insights, the Samsung Galaxy Watch FE can just about do it all. Thanks to Galaxy AI, your data is specifically tailored to get you the best workout experience possible when paired with a compatible Samsung Galaxy phone. Its 40mm screen is easy to read and the band comes in three colors.

The $150 price at Amazon is for the Bluetooth model. Best Buy is offering the same watch for $160, which is $10 more than Amazon but still less than the usual asking price of $200. If you prefer the LTE version, this is on sale for $200, which still saves you $50. If you have a device to trade in, Best Buy might be the way to go because you can save a few more dollars. However, Amazon is the best place to purchase if you don’t have a trade-in device and want to pay upfront.

If the Galaxy Watch isn’t of interest but you’d still like an Android-specific smartwatch, we’ve also rounded up the best Android smartwatches, so you can decide what’s best for you. From Garmin to Google, you’re sure to find one that fits your tastes.

Why this deal matters

The Samsung Galaxy Watch FE came out in June 2024, and although we saw a significant price drop during last year’s Black Friday, this is the lowest price we’ve seen for the Wi-Fi and LTE model at Amazon. It’s a high-performance smartwatch, especially considering that it has most of the same features as the Galaxy Watch 6 — for a lot less. Should you decide to buy at Best Buy, you might be able to save even more if you have an eligible device to trade in.
