What to check before you buy
- Bluetooth and LTE models are listed separately; LTE needs a compatible carrier plan.
- Several Samsung Health tools require a Galaxy phone, so check compatibility first.
- Look for US or Canadian model codes and a sealed box to keep warranty coverage simple.
- If you would consider a pre-owned watch to save money, read our used smartwatch buying guide first.
