Woot Cuts 2024 Galaxy Watch Ultra to $319.99, More Than 50% Off $650 List

Q: With Woot facing a privacy lawsuit, what is the hidden cost behind its half-price Galaxy Watch deal?

The hidden cost is not financial but privacy-related: according to a class-action lawsuit filed in April 2026, Woot allegedly used tracking tools to collect and share shoppers’ detailed browsing and purchase activity with third parties such as Meta without proper consent. That means a buyer drawn in by the $319.99 Galaxy Watch Ultra deal could also be giving up data about what they viewed, clicked, bought, and how they moved through the site. The complaint says this can include URLs visited, products purchased, device and browser details, IP address, and approximate location, with some data allegedly tied to social media identifiers for ad targeting. The lawsuit claims this practice may have enabled highly personalized ads after purchases, including reports from plaintiffs who said they later saw targeted promotions linked to items they bought on Woot. The case alleges violations of federal and state privacy laws and seeks damages and changes to Woot’s tracking practices. So the watch deal itself remains unusually strong on price: more than 50% off, a 1-year Samsung warranty, and a product that is close to the 2025 model. But the tradeoff, if the allegations are proven, is that the discount may be subsidized in part by aggressive data collection and ad-tech tracking rather than just inventory clearance. At this stage, those privacy claims are allegations in ongoing litigation, not a court finding.

$319.99 buys a new 2024 Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra in black/Titanium Silver at Woot, a $330 discount in the retailer's Best of Tech sale.
The deal stands out because the unit is sold as brand new with a 1-year Samsung warranty, unlike many deeper Woot markdowns tied to other conditions.
Samsung's 2025 Galaxy Watch Ultra changed little beyond a navy color option and a RAM bump, making the older model a near-like-for-like alternative.
That pricing undercuts recent comparisons: the 2025 version fell to $435 on Amazon for Prime Day and Samsung still lists the watch at the full $650.
