We live in an age of wearable technology, and one of the most popular smartwatches on the market is the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6. We’ve had the opportunity to test this bad boy out ourselves and truly enjoyed the experience. The Galaxy Watch lineup is well known for its performance benchmarks, comfortable fit, and versatile app selection, but it can be challenging to find Samsung Galaxy Watch deals. Fortunately, that’s where the Best Buy 4th of July Sale comes in.

And as a matter of fact, we’ve already locked our sights on a phenomenal 40mm Galaxy Watch 6 promotion. When you purchase the device now through July 7 at Best Buy, you’ll be able to take $90 off the normal price of $300. While Best Buy deals are always on our radar, this is one of the best we’ve seen for a Samsung smartwatch.

Speaking of health: The Galaxy Watch 6 tracks everything from blood oxygen and calories burned to hours slept and laps swam. It’s one of the best wearables for honing in on our vitals, and the comfortable 40mm band will make you forget you’re even wearing a watch half the time.

You’ll also be able to use the Galaxy Watch 6 to access some of your smartphone features while you’re on the move. This includes texts, notifications, listening to music, and even the ability to call friends and family. Those looking for the best phone to wearable experience should use a Samsung Galaxy smartphone for ideal results.

Whether for work, play, or anything in between, one of the best tablets can make a nice addition to your tech lineup. But there are way more tablets out there than what’s at the top of the line, and plenty of them offer up capability and some savings. In fact, shopping the best tablet deals can make sense if the going laptop deals are more than you’re looking for and the current phone deals don’t offer enough. And with so many tablet brands and places to buy we decided to round up all of the best tablet deals below. Reading onward you’ll find some big time savings on a new tablet, and if you prefer to shop more specifically you can check out the current Samsung tablet deals, Surface Laptop and Surface Pro deals, and iPad deals. There are even some good Amazon Fire Tablet deals and Kindle deals worth exploring right now as well.
Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite (64GB) -- $160, was $199

If you need an Android tablet for simple tasks like browsing the internet and watching streaming shows, the affordable Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite may be enough for you. Its 8.7-inch screen is decent with WXGA+ resolution, while maintaining portability so you can easily hold the tablet in one hand. Its internal storage is limited at 32GB, but you can expand it by up to 1TB using a microSD card. For the clumsy ones, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite is perfect for you because it's protected by a sturdy metal frame.

AirPods Pro and Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro are both on sale

Apple AirPods Pro 2 with USB-C and MagSafe review

The world has become loud, sometimes too much so, and having a solid pair of earbuds can make a big difference. Of course, the higher-end options with noise canceling tend to be prohibitively expensive, especially if you're an Apple user. Luckily, Walmart has an excellent sale that will let you grab a pair of solid noise-canceling headphones for a pretty good price, regardless of whether you're an Android or iOS user. We've collected both deals below for you to check out, although there's a lot more to say for each pair of earbuds, so be sure to check the full review when making your decision to buy.
SAMSUNG Galaxy Buds 2 Pro -- $106, was $230

Samsung's second iteration of these headphones has been both great and not-so-great, making the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro an excellent pair of earbuds to buy, but mostly when they are on sale. For the most part, they have everything you could want from a solid pair of headphones, and they actually have one of the best fits on the market. As such, they're really good for exercise and going out and about, and the IPX7 resistance means that they can handle the environment just fine. That said, the 360 audio and head tracking features are not that great and pale compared to the higher-end Apple earbuds. Even so, they're pretty excellent for the price, especially when discounted, so they're well worth picking up.

Best Buy cut the price of the Apple Watch 9 by $100

There are a lot of great smartwatches options out there, but if you're in the Apple ecosystem already, then it probably makes sense for you to go for one of the Apple Watches, which are some of the best smartwatches on the market. Of course, they do tend to be quite expensive, so if you're looking to save a bit of money, you could grab this deal on the Apple Watch 9 from Best Buy, which discounts the price down to $329 from $429. That's a solid $100 discount, plus you can get up to $235 in trade-in credit, although that's usually only reserved for the latest watches, and you're more likely to get around $100 for trade-in. Either way, you can bring the price down quite significantly.

Why you should buy the Apple Watch 9
There are a lot of great features in the Apple Watch 9, especially if you're a first-time Apple Watch user or if you have an older Apple Watch, like the Series 6 or 7. For example, fitness and health tracking is pretty substantial. It can track anything from blood oxygen levels to skin temperature, and it can even take an electrocardiogram, which is pretty impressive. As such, it's really great for an active lifestyle and is only really beaten out by the likes of the Apple Watch Ultra when it comes to things like hiking, diving, camping, and things of that nature.
