Samsung has a few 'like-new' Galaxy Watch 3 refurbs on sale at crazy low prices

Because it's still hard to anticipate exactly how much better the new Wear OS version will prove to be out in the real world compared to its forerunner, as well as Samsung's defunct Tizen platform, you might want to hold off on buying the Galaxy Watch 3 until the Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic roll out.

Of course, that's easier said than done when arguably the best Android and iOS-compatible Apple Watch Series 6 alternative on the market is on sale for as little as $189.99 instead of its regular $399.99 starting price.

Naturally, you'll have to settle for a refurbished unit if you want to save as much as 210 bucks compared to the MSRP of a brand-new, unused, unopened, and undamaged 41mm Bluetooth-only device. On the decidedly bright side of things, these are not just any raggedy refurbs sold by some shady eBay merchant with a 90-day warranty included (at best).

Samsung itself will directly sell and ship the "certified refurbished" gadgets through its official eBay store, vouching for their "pristine, like-new" condition after "professionally" inspecting, cleaning, and refurbishing them to meet all of the company's specifications for new products.

On top of everything, you'll be getting a full two-year (US-only) warranty from Allstate, as well as the choice between Mystic Silver and Mystic Bronze hues as far as the entry-level Galaxy Watch 3 variant is concerned.

For an undoubtedly limited time, you can also opt for a 45mm non-LTE-enabled model in a single Mystic Silver flavor at $199.99 instead of its $429.99 list price.

Before deciding to give the Galaxy Watch 3 the cold shoulder due to its lack of Wear OS 3.0 support, you may want to keep in mind that Tizen is not technically dead yet, still receiving regular updates and being set to continue doing so for at least a couple more years. As such, this bad boy remains without a doubt one of the best smartwatches money can buy in 2021, and at the right price (for instance, $190 and up), nothing's going to change that anytime soon.
