Best Galaxy Watch Deals: Discounts and Trade-In Offers Across Ultra, 7 and Older Galaxy Models
Valentine's Day is nearly here, and whether you want to treat yourself or get a gift for your partner, taking advantage of some deals is a must. We've searched the web to find exceptional offers on the best smartwatches, specifically focusing on Samsung Galaxy Watches, both new and previous-gen. If you're an Android user looking to enhance your day-to-day with a smartwatch so you can stay connected or update your fitness routine, we've got you covered.
But we want you to also get the best price. That's why Nelson Aguilar -- one of CNET's resident Android experts -- has rounded up the best deals on all the Galaxy Watches that you can still find on sale. This includes the latest models, like the Galaxy Watch 7 and Ultra, as well as previous-gen models, like the Galaxy Watch 6 and 6 Classic.
Head below for a bunch of discounts and savings, however if you're willing to sign up for a new line at a major carrier or trade-in an older model, you can save much more. We'll keep this page updated to make sure the latest offers are at your fingertips when you're ready to upgrade.
Stock is all over the place right now. Only a handful of configurations and colors are available at retailers, with not many of them bringing the price down that much. That said, the best deal is likely the Galaxy Watch 7, which is currently $240 at Best Buy, Amazon and Samsung. There's a cheaper model that still does the job well, but as the Galaxy Watch 6 is only marked down to $230 at Samsung, we'd probably recommend going for the newer model, unless you have an eligible trade-in, which may save you more. We may see a few deals crop up as we get closer to Presidents Day, but that remains to be seen.
Samsung is currently offering $120 off the Galaxy Watch Ultra, which drops the starting price down to $530. But if you've got an older smartwatch that you're willing to part with, you can save up to $400 via trade-in.

One of the sleekest OLED gaming monitors around is 35 percent off
Cameron Faulkner There are so many QD-OLED gaming monitors to choose from, depending on what size, resolution, refresh rate, and design you're happy to commit to. It's not easy to find a monitor that balances all those factors, but a big discount can shoot one toward the top of the list. Sony's InZone M10S is a 27-inch 1440p QD-OLED with a whopping 480Hz refresh rate, and it's 35 percent off right now at Amazon, selling for $714.99 (originally $1,099.99). For those who are pursuing a minimalist setup, there might not be a better choice. The M10S features a super-thin design and a versatile stand that takes up very little desk space. The circular stand is only about the size of a CD, on which the monitor can swivel. It looks really nice. When I reviewed this monitor during my days at Polygon, I didn't think its performance justified its original price, as Asus had a similarly speedy 480Hz model that sold for $999.99 (and still costs that much). It's a different story now that the M10S is steeply discounted. Some other great deals to check out Summer is here, more or less. It's a time associated with outdoors and relaxing, but unfortunately it's also when wildfire smoke is at its worst, depending on your location. In case you don't have an air purifier in your home (and you think it may be something you'll need based on past experiences), Levoit's Core 300-P model is selling at Amazon with a rare 10 percent discount, costing $89.99. This model uses replaceable HEPA filters and runs quietly as it cuts down on dust and odors (you can opt for a special filter that filters pet allergens, too). This particular model can cover up to 1,074 square feet. We covered this deal last week, but it bears repeating: Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses are 20 percent off in select styles, costing as low as $239 at Amazon, Meta, and Best Buy. They're a solid value, especially if you want to go all in with Meta AI features to help you identify landmarks, get live translations, and more. Alternatively, they're also one of the best options if you just want some stylish shades that can let you snap pics or video, and can pipe your music and phone calls near your ears. These prices will be in effect through June 16th. Here are some deals for Switch 2 owners excited for the upgraded versions of Super Mario Party Jamboree and Kirby and the Forgotten Land and who don't own the original Switch versions. Woot is selling Super Mario Party Jamboree for $44.99 while Kirby is $39.99 (each previously sold for $59.99). This will put some money back in your pocket to use on each of the games' respective Switch 2 Edition upgrades that cost $19.99.

You Asked: Your biggest Switch 2 questions, answered
On today's episode of You Asked: What's the best TV for your shiny new Switch 2 and how does the screen compare to the OLED model we loved? We break down the top TV picks, answer your biggest Switch 2 questions, and share early hands-on impressions from launch week. Best TV for the Switch 2? Jose asks: What's gonna be the TV to couple with the Switch 2? Samsung S90D? Jose, thanks for answering part of the question for me. Yes, the Samsung S90D is a great option. Its QD-OLED panel—offered at 55, 65, and 77 inches—combined with all the bright color combinations we get from the likes of Switch games will make for a beautiful gaming experience. But there are some important things to note about the Switch 2. If you're in the market for a new TV to pair with your shiny new toy, it's easy to get gassed up and potentially overspend. While the Switch 2 does support 4K gaming and some games will support faster refresh rates, it's not going to need the same hardware that's necessary to get the best out of a PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X. 4K, 60 frames per second gaming from the Switch 2 should only need HDMI 2.0 to support it. So no stressing if your TV lacks the HDMI 2.1 ports found on the top-tier models. And the higher refresh rates that the Switch 2 hits with some games will only be available at lower resolutions—again, supported by HDMI 2.0. Long story short: if you've seen us preview, review, or debate a TV on this channel, since we primarily cover the top models, it's going to be great with the Switch 2. But given how full of rich, crazy colors video games can be, yeah, a QD-OLED TV would be my top pick. Doesn't even need to be a top model. The S90D you mentioned is great and on a good sale right now. The 2025 S85F from Samsung comes with a QD-OLED panel at 55 and 65 inches as well, though it's not as bright as Samsung's OLED models higher up the line. If it's not QD-OLED and you want to save a little from the top-tier TVs, LG's C-series models are great gaming TVs that deliver when it comes to punchy colors and brightness that's improved each year. And for those of us that don't need—or have the budget for—OLED, TCL and Hisense have a number of great Mini LED options that come in right around and often under $1,000. We reviewed the TCL QM6K and were pretty blown away by what it offered for the money. Each year they're getting better and better in terms of brightness, if that's what you want out of your gaming TV. More answers to your Switch 2 questions with Giovanni We got our Switch test unit on Wednesday morning. We're still testing it and we plan to do a full review, but we don't want to rush it. There's a lot to dig into with this console, so I decided to do this video to get some pressing questions out of the way and give you our initial impressions. Before we got the console last week, we did a full-day preview event where we got hands-on with it. We went through the system settings, did game chat—all of that. So I've tested a significant amount of it so far, which puts me in a good position to answer some of the questions you've sent in. Is Joy-Con mouse control a gimmick? Corey asks: Is the mouse functionality of the Joy-Con usable, or is it more of a gimmick without a keyboard? That is a fantastic question. I want to start with that because it's kind of the most surprising thing about the console. When they announced the mouse function, I genuinely—I'll be honest—thought it seemed like one of those old Nintendo gimmicks that wouldn't go very far. I think we're all used to that by now, right? 3D on the 3DS was supposed to be huge. Motion controls, the Wii U gamepad—Nintendo developed a couple of games for it, but no other third party bites and that's kind of it. I figured that would be the case here too. Mouse controls in a game like Dragon Drive, and then they fade away. But I've spent a significant amount of time with the mouse controls, and I'll be honest—they are way better than you're probably expecting. What makes them great? First, they're pinpoint accurate. You'll be blown away when you move the little foot slide on the bottom of your Joy-Con. It moves like an actual mouse. It even works on your pants—I demoed it on my jeans and it slid smoothly. Second, they're multifunctional. You can use them to control the home screen and menus just like a computer mouse—and it works incredibly well. And it's easy to forget: you can use two at once. That opens up new kinds of experiences that aren't even possible on PC. In Bravely Default Remaster, there's a rhythm mini-game where you control a line with both Joy-Cons. In Dragon Drive, you can control two wheels on a wheelchair and use the gyroscope to shoot a basket—all in one smooth motion. That's a uniquely Nintendo thing. So, is it usable without a keyboard? Yes, because the experiences are built around the two-Joy-Con setup. You won't need a keyboard. Not every game will be compatible—especially ones originally designed for mouse and keyboard—but many are already being mapped for controller use. I even played Civilization 7 with the Joy-Cons and it worked really well. You just move the mouse and click—no keyboard necessary. So no, not just a gimmick. It's genuinely useful and could shape future Switch experiences. What might be a gimmick is the two-mouse setup. I don't expect a ton of games like Dragon Drive, but I do see potential for shooters, strategy games, and other creative uses. It's cool tech—and it works. Will games run better on Switch 2? @rmo9808 asks: Will games get a performance boost? Aside from the ones explicitly stated. Perhaps not a bump 1080p 60 fps but a 10 fps bump here and there Great question. The answer is yes, but it's on a case-by-case basis. Nintendo's Bill Tritton confirmed in April that games will get natural boosts from the new hardware. Expect faster loading times, maybe slightly better resolution and smoother frame rates. But how much improvement you'll see depends entirely on the developer. If a game has a dedicated Switch 2 version—like Pokémon Scarlet and Violet—you'll see big upgrades. We previewed that and it looks significantly better: denser environments, smoother performance, and sharper visuals. If you didn't like the art style, that won't change—but the technical side is much improved. Other games will likely see small boosts, but don't expect miracles unless they're optimized specifically for Switch 2. How does the Switch 2 screen stack up against the beloved OLED version? Corey and @FairyKid64 both asked a question I've been hearing a lot since April: how does the new screen compare to the Switch OLED display? It's a great question—because when they first announced this thing, I thought, Man, I love my Switch OLED. I love my Steam Deck OLED too. That OLED screen really ruined the original Switch for me. Once you see those vibrant colors, the original display looks washed out and dull. I'm happy to report that while the Switch 2 doesn't use OLED, its screen is still very good. It's way better than the original Switch. Why? The tech has evolved significantly since 2017. LCD tech today is miles ahead of what it was when the first Switch launched. This new display is much more capable. For starters, it supports VRR and has a 120Hz refresh rate—something the Switch OLED can't even come close to. In my testing so far, I've seen vibrant colors and strong contrast—things that the original Switch sorely lacked. Next to the OLED, that old screen has this sort of white film you can't unsee. That's not the case here. The difference isn't as drastic, but it's a meaningful upgrade. I'll need more time with side-by-side comparisons and different games, but my early impressions are positive. I think you'll be happy with it. What about USB-C and third-party accessories? Kenneth Chung asks: Comparing Switch 2 to the original; with the additional USB slot what third party accessories could we confidently use? Great question. There's still a lot of testing to do, but here's what we know. Nintendo has confirmed that certain accessories will work—like the GameCube adapter made for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. You should be able to plug it in and go, no issues. But beyond that, things get more complicated. The USB port on the Switch 2 does support non-Nintendo devices, including webcams. If you go into the settings, you'll find an option to test connected cameras. So yes, you can plug in a USB camera, run a test, and confirm it works. That said, compatibility will vary wildly depending on the brand and type of device. Not every webcam is guaranteed to work. Nintendo hasn't confirmed much, and I certainly don't own every webcam to test. But I expect most will work fine. I also plan to test XR glasses—specifically Lenovo's Legion glasses—as a potential second screen. These already work with phones and Steam Decks, so there's no reason they shouldn't work here. But again, we need to test more. We've started some initial testing, but there's a lot more to do before the full review. So far, things are looking promising. Battery life at full performance? We've also been getting questions about battery life—especially when playing at 1080p and 120fps. That's something I can't answer definitively yet. First, I need a game that can even run at those specs, and we're not seeing many at launch. Nintendo's estimates suggest battery life could drop to 2 to 2.5 hours when pushing the system hard, especially if you've got game chat running with multiple players. That seems realistic. Once we've done more testing, I'll be able to say for sure. What accessories are worth buying on day one? Jake asks: Recommendations for screen protectors and other accessories? Great question—and yes, there are already tons of options, both first- and third-party. Let's start with the official Nintendo Pro Controller. I've used it, and I think it's fantastic. If you want a more traditional gamepad, it's the best option out there right now. The added back buttons and built-in audio jack are nice bonuses. For screen protectors, Nintendo is offering a carrying case bundle that includes one. That's probably your best bang for your buck if you're looking to grab a few essentials all at once. Now, one third-party product I can already recommend is the dbrand Kill Switch—their first official case for the Switch 2. If you know dbrand's Steam Deck case, you'll recognize the quality. It comes with a lot of stuff: A screen protector A snap-on protective case A back cover that works with the kickstand A game card holder for travel Ergonomic Joy-Con grips (with removable design) A dock adapter so you can keep the case on while docked It's a pretty full-featured kit and feels like a solid option out of the gate.

Anker's 5-in-1 USB-C Hub With HDMI Port Is Near-Free on Amazon, Limited Stock Available
Laptops keep getting thinner and thinner, but they have to sacrifice certain things to achieve that size. One such thing? Connectivity ports. Whether you're using a MacBook, a newer Windows ultrabook, or even a tablet with USB-C support, you've probably run into the same problem. There's not enough room to plug in everything you need. That's where a USB-C hub comes in, and Anker's 5-in-1 model is one of the best around. Even better, it's currently marked down at Amazon.

Connect everything you need all at once This compact little hub is designed for people who need more connectivity without sacrificing portability or desk space. It has two USB-A 2.0 ports, one USB-A 3.0 ports, and an HDMI port wit 90W pass-through charging and a total input of 100W. 10W of that are used to make the hub more efficient. It also offers fast data transfers thanks to its USB 3.0 port and the other two USB 2.0 ports. The 100W PD passthrough charging, lets you keep your laptop powered up while using all the other ports at once.
