Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic Drops to Its Lowest-Ever Price as Apple Watch Series 11 Nears Release
This 2025 Android smartwatch is now on sale for $360 at Woot — a whopping $140 discount.
Apple created quite a buzz with its recent announcement that the new Apple Watch Series 11, Ultra 3 and SE 3 will all be hitting shelves next week. However, they’re not the only options out there. For Android users, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is one of our favorite smartwatches of 2025, and right now you can grab one at a massive discount.
Woot has slashed a whopping $140 off the price of the 46mm Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, which drops this 2025 smartwatch down to a record low of $360. This offer is available through Sept. 13, but could easily sell out before then, so don’t wait too long to place your order or you could miss out.
Other than some gripes with the onboard Running Coach, CNET’s wearable tech expert Vanessa Hand Orellana found a lot to like about Samsung’s latest smartwatch. She commended its stylish design, advanced health tools and Gemini AI support, and stated that «it has nearly every feature I could hope for.»
It features a vibrant 46mm AMOLED display with up to 3,000 nits of peak brightness, as well as 2GB of RAM and 64GB of onboard storage. It’s also equipped with a built-in GPS and has tons of fitness functions like sleep coaching, vascular load monitoring and a daily energy score. Plus, it’s fully waterproof up to 50 meters, and boasts an impressive battery life of about 30 hours. Just note that some features can only be used when paired with a Samsung Galaxy phone.
