Samsung and Garmin lead 2 smartwatch deals starting at $290

Only verified price drops made the cut today.

Smartwatch prices shift constantly, but genuine drops on premium models are rarer than you would think. Right now two of the most capable watches on the market have real cuts at Amazon, and both are worth a closer look if you have been waiting.

Samsung Galaxy Watch Pro 5 45mm LTE drops to $289.99 - save $206.29. That is a 42 percent discount on a titanium-frame LTE watch with sleep coaching and body composition tracking.

Quick Highlights

• Garmin epix Pro , 42mm: 1.2-inch AMOLED display, built-in LED flashlight with strobe modes, hill score and endurance score metrics, plus 24/7 health monitoring with HRV status.
• Samsung Galaxy Watch Pro 5 45mm LTE: Sapphire crystal glass and titanium case, body composition analysis via BioActive Sensor, auto workout tracking for 90+ exercises, and improved battery life for multi-day trips.

Why These Deals Matter

These are two distinctly different smartwatches targeting different buyers, and both are at prices worth acting on. The Galaxy Watch Pro 5 at $289.99 is the bigger story on raw savings -- $206 off on an LTE model with a titanium frame is hard to find at this level. The Garmin epix Pro Gen 2 at $699.99 is a more niche play for serious runners and trail athletes who want the AMOLED display and the advanced training metrics Garmin is known for. Neither of these prices is a routine fluctuation.

Final Verdict

If you are on Android and want the best all-around LTE smartwatch under $300, the Galaxy Watch Pro 5 is the call. If you train hard and need granular endurance data with a premium display, the Garmin epix Pro Gen 2 justifies its higher price.

Both are at Amazon right now.
