Best Buy is selling the Galaxy Gear smartwatch for $150 today, which is half off the $299 launch price of the device. Currently, four color variants of the device that include rose gold, oatmeal beige, lime green and wild orange are available for $150. The mocha gray and jet black variants still cost $250. The Galaxy Gear has seen lukewarm consumer interest since its debut four months ago, which has led to Samsung slashing the price of the device in markets like India.

Limited software functionality is also said to have been a contributed to low sales, but Samsung addressed that issue through a recent software update. The Galaxy Gear was one of the most returned products last year at Best Buy, so this sale might be a bid to clear inventory. While $300 was too high, $150 is justifiable considering the features the device comes with. If you’re interested, head over to Best Buy by clicking on the source link below. The sale only lasts for a day, so you better hurry.
