That\u2019s for the Bluetooth-only model, with the LTE variant at $209.99. Jumping up to a 44mm model lands at $189.99 and $239.99, respectively. <\/p>\n<p>Woot has the Galaxy Watch 8 event cheaper, with a brand new 40mm Bluetooth\/Wi-Fi only being $149.99, and the 44mm LTE model for $229.99.<\/p>\n<p>\tAdvertisement &#8211; scroll for more content<\/p>\n<p>Samsung also has the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic for $350 and Watch Ultra for $499, discounts of $150. Woot has Samsung beat on this one, though, with the Watch Ultra (2025) down to just $300 at through a Woot sale, and that\u2019s for a brand new model too. Just a screaming good deal there.<\/p>\n<p>These are bizarrely good deals, especially the ones on Samsung.com.
