If you’ve been waiting for a deal to pick up a fitness watch, now is a great time. Most of the major brands are offering discounts already, including Fitbit, Garmin, and Apple watches.
The best deals I’ve found are listed below (and if you’re interested in a Garmin specifically, I have a whole separate post of just those).
All of the current Fitbit models are on sale right now. Fitbit’s best tracker, the Charge 6, is 38% off, going for $99.95 (normally $159.95). This one was my pick for the best minimalist fitness tracker. (You can read more here about its best features, or check out our hands-on review from when it first launched.)
There’s also an Inspire 3 on sale for $69.95 (down from $99.95). This is like a pared-down Charge 6—still tracking your heart rate and steps just fine but missing some of the “smarter” features. It also relies on your phone’s location services rather than having built-in GPS.
If you’re more in the mood for a sfull-featured martwatch, there are also deep discounts on the Versa 4 ($119.99 down from $199.99, a whopping 40% off) and Sense 2 ($179.95, down from $249.95).
That said, if you’re not sure you want to stick with Fitbit for your next smartwatch, I have a rundown here of how the Pixel Watch 3 compares to Garmin’s Vivoactive 5—I crowned the Vivoactive 5 the winner, and it’s going for $199 right now. Just thought you should know.
Apple makes three different watches. The Series 10 is the middle-of-the-road model at the moment, with the Ultra 2 the fancier model, and the SE (2nd gen) the more minimalist option. All three are on sale at the moment. We’ll start with the Series 10 because it’s the one our Associate Tech Editor, Michelle Ehrhardt, has declared to be the best Apple Watch for most people.
The Apple Watch SE is only $169 (down from $249) for the 40mm GPS-only version, or $199 (down from $279) for the 44mm version. Or go for the upgrade with an Apple Watch Ultra 2 for $719 (down from $799). That one is 49mm and comes with both GPS and cellular. And if you like snagging deals on older models, you can pick up a 41mm Series 9 (one generation older than the current models) for just $299.
There are tons of deals on Garmin watches right now, enough that I assembled whole separate post with the best of them. A few worth noting:
Sunnto’s outdoor watches aren’t as well known as their competitors, but there are a few deals today I need to shout out. The multisport Suunto 9 Baro is $199.90 (down from $299), and the Suunto Core with temperature and storm alarm is $159 (down from $219).
