It’s a busy time of year for Samsung with it launching a brand new set of folding phones this summer, as well as an all-new addition to its smart watch line-up with the Watch8. However, the release of the new watch is driving down the price of last year’s model with the Galaxy Watch7 still holding up extremely well in 2025.
While it’s possible to snap the Watch7 up from £239 if you buy directly from Samsung, there’s a way to get the watch for pennies per day if purchased through Sky. Head on over to the site and shoppers can find the 40mm version of the Galaxy Watch7 for £9 per month.
This is over a 36-month contract, which does mean that shoppers will end up paying a £95 premium over buying the watch outright. However, the contract has a 0% interest rate with no hidden price hikes mid-contract.

Samsung pitches this smart watch as more of a fitness and wellness companion than a traditional smart watch. Sure, it can still tell the time and show notifications from your phone, but it’s also capable of in-depth activity and biometric tracking too.
Runners and cyclists will appreciate that improved dual GPS system that makes for more accurate tracking while out and about – ideal for uploading to Strava or Komoot. An included heart rate sensor, ECG, and blood pressure monitor all help to keep an eye on your body too, helping you stay fit and healthy on a daily basis.
Samsung has also come up with an algorithm that compiles data to give users an ‘energy score’. Using heart rate and sleep data it can let you know roughly how energised you might be feeling during any given day, helping you make informed decisions about whether to go for that run or not.

If you’re not so bothered about all the additional health tracking features and just want a basic smart watch, the Nothing Watch Pro 3 might be up your street. It’s available at Amazon for £99.
Alternatively, some shoppers swear by the Amazfit Active 2, which has plenty of the same fitness tracking features for a smaller price tag. It’s on sale at Amazon for £109.90 instead of the usual £129.90.
Reviews of the Galaxy Watch7 are starting to pour in at Amazon with it receiving a 4.3 star rating so far. One shopper titles their review as ‘best smart watch on the market at the moment’, elaborating with: “Value for money it’s a no brainer especially if you find it on a discounted price.”
Another shopper writes: “Great piece of kit. I’ve previously owned many watches, including apple watches. Have to say this is the best of the lot… works great as a health tracker too. Love the health app too.” Meanwhile, a third wearer adds: “The strap is really comfortable and is big enough for a large wristed chap like myself.”
However, some buyers say the watch is let down by sub-par battery life. “So far it’s been a good watch. Light, stylish and with all the features you can expect from a modern smartwatch. But as I mentioned on the title, the battery life lasting 2 days is just rubbish, so fed up with the charging hassle,” reads one review.
A second concurs, saying: “It is not so much the battery drain which is the issue for me as I can squeeze 2 days use out of it (with a lot of the features switched off). The major issue I have is the time it takes to re-charge. My watch was at 37% this morning, when I put it on the charger it told me that it was going to take over 1 hour and 30 minutes to fully charge. No use for me.”
