Lifehacker Highlights Garmin Deals From $99.99 to $949.99 as Prime Day Nears End

3 articles · Updated · Lifehacker · Jun 26

Summary

  • $99.99 to $949.99 Garmin discounts lead Lifehacker’s latest Prime Day roundup, with the steepest entry deal a refurbished Forerunner 55 and the priciest pick a Fenix 8 Pro at its lowest-ever $949.99.
  • Garmin’s overlapping Summer Sale is driving many of the offers, not just Amazon Prime listings, which is why some of the best prices may appear outside standard Prime Day search results.
  • $229.95 for a refurbished Forerunner 265S, $199.99 for a Forerunner 165 and $189.99 for a Vivoactive 5 anchor the sub-$250 picks, while Lifehacker also flags non-Garmin alternatives from Suunto and Coros.
  • $499.99 watches dominate the midrange recommendations, including the Forerunner 965 and Venu 4, while premium models such as the Forerunner 970, Enduro 3 and Fenix 8 Pro are discounted by $100 or more.
  • June 23-26 Prime Day is running alongside rival sales at Walmart, Best Buy and Target through as late as June 28, widening the pool of comparable tech discounts.
