Cyber Week 2025 is over, but many of the great deals that we've seen this past week are still around. You can still find solid discounts on a range of 2025 products, including my favorite: the Google Pixel Watch 4. The wearable is seeing price drops of up to 22% off, depending on the model you prefer. After using the Pixel Watch 4 for a few weeks, I can confidently say that this is one of my favorite wearable devices of the year.

The Google Pixel Watch 4 price starts at $350 for the 41mm Wi-Fi version, but it is down to $300 for Black Friday. Similarly, you can get the 45mm model for $350 (down from $400) at Amazon. However, the biggest savings are being offered on the LTE variants, which are being sold at the same price as the Wi-Fi models. You can find the 41mm Pixel Watch 4 LTE for $350.
If you are an Android user and in the market for a new smartwatch, I recommend getting this over the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 and the last-gen Pixel Watch 3. Here's why.

Unlike most smartwatches, the Pixel Watch 4 is stylish, elegant, and looks nice on the wrist. While the Apple Watch can't overcome its sporty look, Google's wearable can serve as both a dress watch and a sports watch.
I love the screen because I prefer having black dials on my watch faces. And its brightness goes up to 3,000nits -- 1,000nits more than Apple's Series 11. That being said, both watches are still plenty bright. I haven't had any legibility issues with the Pixel Watch 4, and I love the contrast on its AMOLED panel.
