Amazon drops 'impressive' €182 watch to €74 ahead of Prime Day
Amazon has slashed the price of an "impressive" smart watch that fans are praising for its "long lasting battery life". Ahead of Prime Day 2025, scheduled to start on July 8 at midnight, the popular retailer has rolled out discounts on a variety of items.
One deal that customers are snapping up is the SOUYIE smartwatch, which has seen a dramatic price cut. It has dropped from €182.20 to just €74.80 as part of a limited time deal.
The gadget boasts a sleek full-metal design with two interchangeable straps - metal for a polished look and silicone for sporty wear. It's equipped with an integrated microphone and speaker allowing you to make, receive and reject calls. There's also Bluetooth calling, voice assistant and notifications to keep you connected on the go.
The 1.43" HD AMOLED display offers vivid visuals with customisable watch faces, while advanced health sensors monitor heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen and sleep. With 100+ sports modes and a long-lasting 400mAh battery providing up to 10 days of use, it's a versatile companion for both work and workouts.
For those considering alternatives, Currys has the ever-popular GARMIN vivoactive 5 Smart Watch available for €269. Meanwhile, Brown Thomas has the Fitbit Sense 2 for €249.95.
The SOUYIE smartwatch has garnered glowing reviews on Amazon's newly launched Irish website.
One happy customer said: "Very impressive watch. Very decent quality and just feels expensive. Some points I have looked into are that you can download over 100 additional faces so surely you can find one that suits you. I wanted a watch that feels quality and looks good on me. It connects so easily to my I phone and works seamlessly.
"I am not after all the other options on it but there are a lot!. Beta quality watch I have purchased in a very long time. It has a good weight to it and in today's world that's a real change but a welcome one. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a quality watch."
Another added: "Very stylish looking. Looks just like a watch. Very good value for money. Easy to set up, battery lasts a couple of days and easy to charge."
A third wrote: "Fabulous watch, does everything needed including blood pressure. Looks more expensive than it is."
Someone else, who said they were "writing their review after three months to ensure it reflects the reality", added: "The watch is value for money. I have had it for almost 3 months and I've not charged it since. The touch is good and smooth. Connects to phone quickly. I like the overall colour too. Good value for money."
However one customer did note that the watch is "big and heavy", saying: "The watch is ok, big and heavy and it doesn't look like a Smart watch. The quality of speaker is very good, unbelievable how they add a speaker into the watch. Some of the functions doesn't work properly/not accurate, like steps or blood pressure. Overall for the price you pay, you get a decent watch."
