Amazon wants to pay you to preorder the Galaxy Watch 8 — here's why I would NOT do it during Prime Day


It's a classic Prime Day dilemma.

When you directly compare the two wearables, it's true that the Galaxy Watch 8 sports a more-streamlined design and some new health tracking features, but that's about it. Both Samsung smartwatches share the same processor and health sensors, and the minor battery upgrade in the Galaxy Watch 8 will hardly be noticeable with regular day-to-day use. Sure, it'll be a totally different story when Prime Day ends Friday night, but if you're looking for a great smartwatch deal today, skip the new model and go with the Galaxy Watch 7.
