Galaxy Watch FE hits new low price for Black Friday
Shopping the Black Friday sales can be challenging, especially if you want a new smartwatch, but this deal makes life much easier.
If you were considering a new Android-compatible smartwatch, I’d highly recommend the Galaxy Watch FE right now as one of the best budget smartwatches for most people. It’s certainly the cheapest Samsung model I’ve seen on Black Friday, discounted down to the lowest price it’s ever been.
It only comes in one spec but a few different colours, which makes things easier to price up and compare. The watch usually costs £199 in the UK, but Amazon has dropped the price to just £168 for Black Friday.
That’s a 16% saving, which isn’t the biggest discount figure but it does bring this smartwatch to its lowest price ever.
A few other retailers, such as John Lewis and Currys, have the watch at a similar price – just £1 more. The latter offers 4-months of Apple TV+ which could make it more valuable overall.
But if you want the Galaxy Watch FE at its outright best price, this Amazon deal is for you. Beware of other listings on Amazon in the £110-£120 range, which are all listed by third-party sellers without many ratings. We suggest sticking to the genuine deal!
Over in the US, there’s a slightly better deal on the Samsung’s entry-level 2024 smartwatch. The Galaxy Watch FE usually retails for $200, but it’s down to $126.71 for the Black Friday sales. Note that you only get 1 year of warranty instead of 3 as you do in the UK, but the better savings make this deal a hard one to beat.
However, if you want to get one of these deals, you’ll need to be quick. Amazon’s Black Friday sale is due to end after Cyber Monday on 2 December, but with items on offer, they may sell out of this smartwatch before then.
In our review, we said the FE has a “sleek and classic” design and “particularly impressive” activity auto-detect and sleep tracking. It might be a repackaged Galaxy Watch 4 but deals like this make it far more tempting.

This smartwatch isn’t too big or heavy, weighing just 26.6g. The Samsung Galaxy Watch FE only comes in one 40mm size.
While big smartwatch fans may be disappointed, the 1.2-inch super AMOLED sapphire crystal display is a decent size and large enough that taps don’t feel finicky – though the bezel is one of the thickest around
You’ll be fine to use this watch both in the rain and in the pool, thanks to its IP68 and 5ATM water resistance ratings.
There’s a wide range of health and fitness tracking options available on the Samsung Galaxy FE, but it’s worth saying off the bat that you’ll get the most out of the features if you have an accompanying Samsung phone.
