If you own a Samsung phone and you’re looking to upgrade your accessories, then these deals from Samsung Australia on health and fitness gear have come at just the right time.

Despite the cooling weather, the next few months are also when many of Australia's biggest running, cycling, triathlon and other endurance sports events are held. If you’re signing up for one, a new fitness accessory (or two) can help you get motivated and stay the course.

If you’re in the market for a discounted new Samsung smartwatch, smart ring or earbuds, you’re gonna have to act fast though, as these deals will wrap up on Wednesday, May 13.

Samsung is a TechRadar preferred partner (What does that mean?)

Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 (40mm)
Save 23% (AU$150)
Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 (40mm): was AU$649 now AU$499

We called the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 the best mainline Galaxy Watch in a while, thanks to a slimmer body, a slew of new health, sleep and AI features, a software redesign and an on-wrist Gemini assistant. The battery life, however, doesn’t last as long as a Garmin or Coros smartwatch, so this might not work if you’re tackling multi-day outdoor events — but it still managed to last 25 hours between charges in our testing, which should be plenty for most people.

Samsung Galaxy Ring
Save 36% (AU$250)
Samsung Galaxy Ring: was AU$699 now AU$449

If you’re looking for something much more lightweight, or you prefer using analogue watches, then Samsung’s Galaxy Ring can still do the heavy lifting on the fitness tracking side of things. Another advantage is that most of the features aren’t exclusive to Samsung phones (only a selection of specific Galaxy AI features are), meaning other Android phones are compatible as long as they can install the Samsung Health app. The Galaxy Ring also doesn’t require an ongoing subscription to use, unlike many other smart ring brands.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 FE
Save 40% (AU$100)
Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 FE: was AU$249 now AU$149

While not directly a fitness-specific item, it’s no secret that a lot of people train with some audio playing to help get through most workouts, whether it’s music to get the blood pumping or podcasts and audiobooks as a clever way to multitask. The ‘FE’ tag means these previous-gen earbuds are entry-level, but they also have great battery life, with an impressive 8.5 hours of uninterrupted listening, as well as an IP54 dust, sweat and water resistance rating. This 40% discount should make these buds tempting enough for anyone who wants to upgrade, or even as a gift to a Samsung phone owner.
