Amazon Black Friday: FIFA 23, Smartwatches & Co. with a discount to hit the mark

In this calendar year there have already been two Prime Days at Amazon. However, only Prime members could save a lot of money there. Since Friday, November 18th, the next opportunity to save a lot has been available. In keeping with the World Cup in Qatar, Amazon is now putting out new deals for athletes. For example, FIFA 23 can be bought with a 40 percent discount. For those who prefer to be active in the fresh air, there are, for example, smartwatches and e-bikes for a small price. All offers are valid until November 28th or while stocks last.

Amazon Black Friday: Is the Apple Watch discounted?

When you think of smart watches, the first thing that comes to mind is Apple with the Apple Watch. Around Black Friday, Amazon is offering the popular watch with the sports bracelet at a discounted price. So you get the Apple Watch Series 7 for only 399 euros in conjunction with a 41 mm case. If you prefer to wear a size larger on your wrist, you can also get the 45 mm model at a discount for EUR 412.99.

Although the Apple Watch Series 8 has been around since September, the same CPU is installed inside as with the predecessors Watch Series 7 and Series 6. In everyday life you don’t notice any change in terms of performance. On the other hand, the new sensor for measuring the skin temperature is noticeable. However, this technology has its limits, so that it is not possible to measure fever. As is the case with Apple, the previous model also receives software updates and thus remains up to date. In addition to displaying notifications and the time, the Apple Watch also offers a range of information that can be of interest to amateur athletes. The smart watch can also be used during sports to measure calorie consumption, pulse, distance, etc. With fitness exercise instructions, the Apple Fitness+ service competes with Peloton & Co. For those who prefer to use a fitness tracker, Amazon offers various models from the Polar brand. For example, you can save a whopping 44 percent on the Vantage M2. On the free Polar Flow platform, for example, there is an overview of the calories burned, duration and intensity of the training. In this way, the vital functions can be checked after each training session. According to the manufacturer, the Vantage M2 should offer a battery life of up to 40 hours. In watch mode, the Polar Vantage M2 should last up to seven days per battery charge. Amazon Black Friday has a lot in store for virtual athletes with a deal about FIFA 23.

E-bikes can be used as a supplement to an Apple Watch or another smartwatch with a fitness tracker function. After all, you can work off a lot of calories with an electric bike, while you can always stay connected with other people and even be navigated with the smart wristwatch. When the muscle strength decreases, a rechargeable battery kicks in to power the electric motor.

On Black Friday, interested parties can save up to 29 percent when buying an e-bike. For example, Telefunken offers an aluminum e-bike with 28-inch tires and a 24-speed Shimano derailleur.

Instead of doing sports outside when the temperatures are getting colder, you can also be active in the warm home.

In the current edition of EA’s football simulation, PC players are offered features for the first time that were only available on the Playstation 5 last year.

With Hypermotion, the movements of all 22 field players are calculated individually, so that there should be more realistic player animations. In addition, there is also a revision of the deferred lighting system from the next-gen console version of FIFA 21 on the PC, which was also found on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S under a different name in FIFA 22. FIFA 23 is available including Hypermotion 2 for PC, Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. The versions for Playstation 4 and Xbox One have to do without this technology. When launching the soccer game, EA’s anti-cheat tool may fail, preventing FIFA 23 from launching. As a workaround, the developers recommend restarting the game. In addition, the safe boot mode should be activated in the UEFI in order to be able to play FIFA 23 on the PC. FIFA 23 is available with a discount of 40 percent for 41.99 euros.
