Argos has cut the price of the Reflex Active Nexus Lite Smart Watch to £25, with additional TopCashback discounts bringing the effective cost to £8.96 for new members. The retailer has applied a 50% reduction ahead of Black Friday, down from the original £50 price.
Shoppers who are new to TopCashback receive a £15 welcome bonus plus cashback on Argos orders, reducing the effective price to £8.96. This saves £41.04 after cashback.

Watch features and health functions
The device is described as ‘the ultimate smartwatch’, allowing users to make and receive phone calls from the wrist, along with messages and social media notifications. It has a 1.83-inch display, customisable watch faces, and a battery that lasts roughly five days depending on usage. Music control, GPS connectivity, and multiple sports modes are also included.
Health functions include heart rate and blood oxygen monitoring, wellness features, and sleep analysis. The gadget comes in a gift box with a charger, instructions, and a two-year guarantee. Prices include free click and collect, with standard delivery costing an additional £4.95.
Customer reviews and alternative options
Argos shoppers have rated the watch highly, calling it an ‘affordable alternative to Apple’. One customer said: “A great affordable alternative to an Apple Watch. It has a gorgeous coloured strap, is really flexible, soft and comfortable. The watch face is super clear and clean. There are lots of different apps for health-based items [and] I love that you can upload your own screen saver.”
Another added: “A beautiful smart watch with a long battery life. It connects to my phone easily and perfectly. It’s durable and easy to use.” Not all reviews are positive, with one shopper noting a step-count discrepancy: “It says I’ve walked 5,000 steps when my phone shows 8,000.” Another criticised the connectivity but said the ‘battery life isn’t bad’, while a further customer said: “So happy with this. It does everything it says and the battery really lasts, too. Great value for money.”
