Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic are seeing huge price cuts, and this is your chance to snag one if you couldn\u2019t take advantage of earlier deals. Woot is offering solid discounts on both models, and there isn\u2019t much time left before these deals disappear.<\/p>\n

These Galaxy Watch 8 deals on Woot are too good to ignore!<\/p>\n

Woot is offering<\/a> the Bluetooth-only variants of the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic. Between the two, the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is getting a much bigger discount, down 60% from the list price to just $199.99. As for the Galaxy Watch 8, you can get up to 45% off, i.e., $199.99.<\/p>\n

You can choose between Graphite and Silver, and pick either the 40mm or 44mm size for the Watch 8. The Watch 8 Classic, however, comes only in a White variant and a single 46mm size. If you\u2019re judging purely by discounts, the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is the better deal. Still, you should go with the one that suits your preferences.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve reviewed both, and neither disappoints. The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic (review)<\/a> has its own charm and looks especially classy with the physical rotating bezel. The Galaxy Watch 8 (review)<\/a>, on the other hand, is more universal, with a sleeker and lighter profile. That pretty much sums things up and should make your choice easier.<\/p>\n

Beyond the physical differences, everything else is largely the same. Both run Wear OS 6-based One UI 8 Watch and will receive up to four years of updates. There\u2019s a range of AI-powered features to help keep track of your health, and blood pressure monitoring is now officially rolling out in the US.<\/p>\n

So, it\u2019s a good time to pick between the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic. The only reason to hold off would be if you\u2019re waiting for the newer Galaxy Watch Ultra. Then again, it likely won\u2019t be available at such a low price.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SammyGuru has affiliate and sponsored partnerships, we may earn a commission.
