Rare deal that rivals Amazon sale sees Samsung Galaxy Smartwatch plummet to £39
Amazon Prime Day 2025 took place last week, offering customers thousands of products at significantly reduced prices. The tech section is particularly enticing, with devices such as Samsung Galaxy smart watches being discounted to £239, down from £289. That's for the latest Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 model.
However, if you're not fussed about having the newest design, Wowcher has an offer that massively undercuts Amazon's ongoing offers. For £39, shoppers can bag the 2018 Samsung Galaxy Watch design. With an original RRP of £199.99, that's a whopping 80% saving.
Despite its age, this watch still holds its own and continues to be sold by Samsung today. It pairs with any phone, be it Android or iOS, and can display notifications directly on your wrist.
Naturally, the watch comes loaded with health and fitness tracking features for those who are interested. An integrated GPS signal tracks location, perfect for recording runs to upload straight to Strava or Komoot, reports the Manchester Evening News.
The watch's battery life is touted to last quite a while, even longer than the Apple Watch. Samsung estimates users can go several days between charges, which is ideal if you're off for a weekend and forget the charger.
Samsung has even incorporated NFC payments into the watch, allowing wearers to leave their wallets at home and pay with their watch wherever contactless payments are accepted. It's available in two colours on Wowcher's site, either Rose Gold or Grey.
If you're in the market for a brand-new smartwatch rather than a pre-owned one, there's good news. The CMF by Nothing Watch Pro is available for £62.41. For Apple enthusiasts, the wallet-friendly Apple Watch SE is currently on offer for £209.
These Wowcher vouchers are for the London Magic Store, and they are a hot tip for those into refurbished tech. That means high-grade reconditioned products that have been previously loved but now restored to top-notch condition.
Trustpilot gives us a peek at satisfied customers' takes on London Magic Store. One chuffed buyer penned: "Recently bought a refurbished iPad using Wowcher. The iPad was in immaculate condition but I decided I wanted a newer model with bigger download storage. I contacted Magic Store and they organised immediate exchange with the returns pre paid."
An equally pleased customer spoke of their experience buying a refurbished phone, stating: "Ordered a pristine condition phone off these people and it was when it arrived! On time, packaged well, no issues.... I'll order from here again."
That said, not all feedback's been rosy. A less happy customer noted, "The phone came on time and the software was already set up which was a nice touch. My only problem was that I expected it to come in a better state as I payed extra to order it in excellent condition. When it arrived, there were a few small scratches and dents at the sides which were quite disappointing to find," indicating some room for improvement with seller expectation management.
Another buyer stated: "Phone came quick and was in good condition, but battery not holding charge for long and I had to buy a new one."

Aldi shoppers rush to buy no-effort gadget that's £500 less than pricey version – it's perfect for cleaning your home
GRASS IS GREENER Aldi shoppers rush to buy no-effort gadget that's £500 less than pricey version – it's perfect for cleaning your home Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ALDI shoppers have been flocking to stores to get their hands on a robot vacuum cleaner that is £500 cheaper than Samsung's version. The handy gadget is part of the shop's new Life Hacks range, which sweeps and mops floors at the flick of the switch. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Aldi's robot vacuum sweeps and mops the floors, so you don't have to Credit: Aldi The Ambiano Robot Vacuum hit stores on July 13 and has a price tag of just £99.99, which is a far cheaper alternative to the Samsung Jet Bot vacuum, which is scanning for an eye-watering £665. The vacuum can be scheduled to run at any time, meaning it can scrub your floors whilst you're at work or even whilst you're sleeping. It features a three-stage suction adjustment, is app-controlled and comes with a free one-year warranty. One customer shared a photo of their purchase on Aldi UK Shoppers Facebook page and sent other users into a spin. In the caption they wrote: "Go in for dishwasher tablets and come out with this." One wrote: "I got one and I love it. Linked up to my Alexa, I can tell it to clean my floor when I'm on my way home and it takes itself home. I absolutely love it. And it mops the floors too!" "This looks great, so many great items in Aldi," another added. A third wrote: "I need one of these at the moment." "Ace!" said a fourth, whilst another added: "It's great for smooth tiled floors." Wake up to a weed-free lawn for months thanks to Aldi's £10 gadget that pulls them out without bending or kneeling down It comes with an app-controlled system, which is compatible with Google, Alexa and Siri - making it super easy to programme, even on the busiest of days. Robot vacuum cleaners are basically little AI-powered hockey pucks on a mission to tackle your dirty floors while you put your feet up – but there's some proper clever tech making it all happen. These nifty gadgets use a combination of sensors, motors and clever software to navigate around your home without faceplanting down the stairs or getting hopelessly tangled in your phone charger. It's the ultimate cleaning hack. Most robot vacs start by creating a digital map of your home – think of it as the robot getting its bearings. Using sensors (and in pricier models, cameras or lasers), it builds a virtual floorplan of your space, noting where furniture sits and which areas to avoid. The actual cleaning happens thanks to spinning brushes that sweep dirt toward the centre, where powerful motors create suction to pull everything into an onboard dustbin. Aldi isn't the only store helping to make household smart devices more affordable, Lidl launched a robotic lawnmower for just £199. The Parkside Robot Lawnmower is almost identical to the Bosch Indego S 500 Cordless Robotic Lawnmower , which is listed for £609 from B&Q. The Lidl buy is designed for use on lawns up to 500-square metres and comes with a powerful 20V Li-lon battery. It also has a brushless motor, means it is less likely to suffer wear and tear. It needs to be charged for an hour to deliver 45 minutes of mowing time. Aldi recommends that shoppers pop to their local store to check what's in stock. You can find your closest on the store locator. 2 The gadget is £500 cheaper than the leading brand Credit: Getty
