Amazon reduces 'exceptional' £200 smart to £40 in early Prime Day deal
Amazon Prime Day 2025 is just around the corner - but there are deals already available for Prime members
Amazon has reduced an 'impressive' smart watch shoppers say has an "exceptional battery life." The retailer has dropped prices on a range of products ahead of Prime Day 2025, which runs from July 8 to 11.
The online retailer has discounted the Soudorv Smart Watch, dropping the price from £199.99 to £39.99 for Prime members. The watch features Bluetooth call, 24/7 heart rate and sleep monitor, smart notifications and activity trackers.
It also has a pedometer function, more than 130 sport modes, an alarm clock, stopwatch and timer. There's also music and camera control functions, weather forecast and a sedentary reminder.
The watch has a 1.43'' AMOLED display, which the Amazon description says offers "vibrant visuals with enhanced resolution." The product links to the FitCloudPro app, with more than 250 dial styles to choose from, or shoppers can customise their screens with their own photos.
Alternatively, Selfridges offers the Samsung Galaxy Fit3 smart watch for £59, while Curry's has the FITBIT Versa 4 Smart Watch - Waterfall Blue & Platinum for £179. H. Samuel also stocks the Reflex Active Series 42 Amoled Ultra Slim for £65.
The Soudorv Smart Watch has racked up rave reviews online, with a rating of 4.8 stars. Among them, one person said: "The built quality of this smart watch is quite exceptional. I love the large screen, which is not only bright, but also very smooth and has fast response.
"The connection was easy and straightforward. So far, the data is accurate especially the steps counter. The battery life is commendable. On fully charged, it can go for 8 days on moderate usage. Overall, it's a great watch for the price."
A second wrote: "For the price, this smartwatch is actually pretty impressive. It connects easily to both Android and iPhone, and I love that I can make and answer calls right from my wrist—super convenient when my phone's buried in my bag.
"It tracks steps, workouts, and sleep well enough for everyday use, and the screen is a nice size: not too big, not too small. It's not a high-end smartwatch, but if you're looking for something affordable that covers the basics and looks good doing it, this is a solid pick."
However, they did add that they'd had an issue with the watch. They wrote: "I have one issue with it, when away from my phone for more that 10 minutes it doesn't automatically reconnect, annoying, but I can live with it, hopefully the developer will fix that with a firmware update."
Another disappointed shopper said "Not a bad watch for its price 40$, it's a pity there is no always on display and in rare cases the screen may not light up when you raise your hand somewhere 1 out of 15 times.
"There is also a camera icon here, but when you press it, nothing happens except vibration. Maybe it will work with some Android, but it doesn't work on an iPhone. It's perfect for a gift."
Despite this, many shoppers continued to praise the watch. One person said:
"I like this watch as it looks more like a normal watch, but has all the features of a smart watch. Battery life is the most exceptional thing about it, I wore it 24 hours a day and the battery lasted FIFTEEN DAYS.
"I also like that there is a second configurable button on the side, two different options can be set for short or long press. The smart options cover everything you need, and lots I don't need."
Another added: "Received this on April 30th, it's now May 6th and the battery is on 82%. I can't believe how long it has lasted! The watch looks good and has so many features - I particularly like the option to make my phone ring when I can't find it.
"There are many different sport activities to track and the sleep tracker is really useful. I also like the cool choice of faces that come preinstalled. By far the best smart watch I have owned. I would seriously pay 3 times the listed price for this item, it really is that good."
