The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 was only released in August, but the wearable device is already being discounted in early Prime Day deals ahead of the event that starts October 13. If you are looking forward to Prime Day smartwatch deals, you can already take advantage of $30 discounts on the two versions of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3. The price of the 41mm variant has been reduced to $369 from $399, while that of the 45mm variant has been lowered to $399 from $429/ That’s a pair of interesting smartwatch deals.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 features a round, 1.4-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 360 x 360 pixel resolution, along with more than 50,000 watch faces to choose from. You can control the smartwatch through the two buttons at the side and the rotating bezel, so you won’t be obstructing the screen or leaving smudges on it while you work with the device’s software.

The smartwatch, however, is powered by Samsung’s Tizen OS, not Google’s WearOS. This might be a detriment for some who are heavily invested in Google’s operating systems, as it means that Google apps are not available for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3. The device also comes with Bixby instead of Google Assistant for voice control.

The Samsung Galaxy Watch comes with health functions for monitoring the wearer’s heart rate, blood oxygen, and sleeping patterns, as well as fall detection. The smartwatch is also equipped with more than 120 home workout programs and a running guide that can even measure VO2 max values, or the maximum rate of oxygen consumption during intense exercise.

Samsung promises a battery that can go on a single charge for more than a day, though activating the always-on display setting drastically reduces battery life. Fortunately, if you also own a compatible Samsung phone, you can charge the smartwatch through the Wireless PowerShare feature.

The $30 price reductions for the two variants of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 might not look like much. However, for devices that have only been on the market for a few months, any discount is a bonus considering you will be getting Samsung’s best smartwatch. The 41mm version is on sale for $369, down from $399, while the 45mm version is on sale for $399, down from $429.

Meta will disable the camera on AI smart glasses if you tamper or cover the indicator light
Meta will also remove all posts and ads that advertise tampering services and products.
Meta Glasses

Ever since Meta launched its first smart glasses developed in collaboration with Ray-Ban, they have built a reputation as a creep's weapon. The outrage is justified, as a lot of people are not comfortable being recorded or captured without being told about it. Now, Meta is taking concrete steps to make sure that the camera-equipped smart glasses do not violate any person's privacy. To that end, the company has announced that it will disable the onboard camera on its smart glasses if someone covers or tampers with the white LED indicator light.

AI smart glasses have a trust problem. Even when they're not recording, simply wearing a camera on your face can make people around you uneasy. Solos' latest answer isn't another blinking LED or software toggle. Instead, it's a piece of plastic.

Two different approaches to solving the same problem

Virtual taekwondo sounds like a gimmick until it solves the biggest fear of combat sports
The noncontact VR discipline is gaining momentum in Southeast Asia by keeping the athletic grind while reducing the injury risk that scares many people away.
Electronics, Screen, Person

Virtual taekwondo sounds ridiculous in the easiest way. Put on a headset, strap sensors to your body, kick at empty air, and call it a combat sport. Somewhere, Wii Sports is quietly stretching.

Athletes are still kicking, reacting, and gasping through the work. The difference is that the hits land on avatars instead of bodies.
