Samsung Galaxy Smartwatches reduced to £39 at one retailer for Black Friday

Smartwatches and fitness trackers can be a massive help when it comes to monitoring your health and activity, as well as with conveniences like notifications, music player control, and contactless payments without needing to get your phone out.

There’s usually a hefty premium to pay for the big name brands, but right now you can nab a bona fide market leader for less than £40. Over at Wowcher you can pick up a refurbished Samsung Galaxy Watch from £39, with a few options to choose from. The £39 option is marked down from £99, with savings topping out at up to 61% across the options.

Armed with one of these strapped to your wrist, you’ll get real-time data on your steps, heartrate, calorie burn, activity levels, sleep quality, stress levels, and more. When you’re out doing some activity, simply set the watch to track it with metrics tailored to each discipline.

Along with the fitness tracking elements, you can also set up your contactless cards to run through the watch, switch songs on Spotify and other music playback apps, read your texts and emails, and much more.

Refurbished tech is a great option if you’re looking to make big savings, and it’s also a means to help minimise tech waste — a huge global problem thanks to the regular releases of new smartphones, watches, games consoles, and everything in between. While these benefits speak for themselves, be aware that refurbished doesn’t come with a manufacturer warranty, but you may get a limited guarantee from the retailer.
