Cyber Monday Deals Still Available on Fitness Trackers and Smartwatches
If you’ve been waiting for a good deal on a fitness watch, most major brands are still offering discounts after Cyber Monday, including Fitbit, Garmin, and Apple watches. The best deals I found are listed below. (You can read more in this separate post about Garmin watches and this one about Fitbit offerings .)
Fitbits are still on sale
All current Fitbit models are on sale now. Fitbit’s top tracker, the Charge 6 , is on sale for 38% off at $99.95 (regularly $159.95). I chose this minimalist style fitness tracker . (You can learn more about its best features here , or check out our hands-on review from when it first launched.)
Also on sale is the Inspire 3 for $69.95 (down from $99.95). It’s like a stripped-down Charge 6: It still tracks heart rate and steps great, but lacks some of the smart features. It also relies on your phone’s location services rather than built-in GPS.
If you’re more into a full-featured smartwatch, there are also big discounts on the Versa 4 ($119.99 down from $199.99, a whopping 40% off) and Sense 2 ($179.95 down from $249.95 US dollars).
That said, if you’re not sure you want Fitbit for your next smartwatch, I have a quick rundown of how the Pixel Watch 3 compares to Garmin’s Vivoactive 5 —I named the Vivoactive 5 the winner, and it’ll cost $199. right now. Just thought you should know.
This Apple Watch is still on sale
Apple produces three different watches. The Series 10 is currently the mid-range model, the Ultra 2 is a more refined model, and the SE (2nd generation) is a more minimalist option. All three are on sale now. We’ll start with the Series 10 because our assistant tech editor Michelle Erhardt called it the best Apple Watch for most people . These prices are $20 higher than yesterday, but still well below the regular price:
-
Series 10 (GPS, 42mm) , US$349 (down from US$399)
-
Series 10 (GPS + Cellular, 42mm) , $449 (up from $499)
-
Series 10 (GPS, 46mm) , US$379 (up from US$429)
-
Series 10 (GPS + Cellular, 46mm) , $479 (up from $529)
Apple Watch SE now costs $189 (originally $249) for the 40mm GPS-only version or $219 (originally $279) for the 44mm version. Or buy the Apple Watch Ultra 2 for $769 (originally $799, which isn’t as good a deal as the $719 you just missed). It measures 49mm and is equipped with GPS and cellular connectivity. And if you like to get bargains on older models, you can pick up the 41mm Series 9 (one generation older than current models) for just $302.84.
This Garmin watch is still for sale.
There are a ton of deals on Garmin watches right now, so much so that I’ve put together a whole separate post with the best ones . A few worth noting:
-
The Vivoactive 5 costs $199.99 (originally $299.99) and is, in my opinion, Garmin’s best lifestyle smartwatch, with tons of great features and a battery life of over 9 days.
-
At $149.99 (originally $199.99), the Forerunner 55 is Garmin’s most basic running watch, but it still has a ton of smartwatch features, sleep tracking, and more.
-
The Forerunner 165, priced at $199.99 (originally $249.99), is an upgrade from the 55 with a bright AMOLED screen and many of the same performance features as better models, but at a much lower price.
-
The Forerunner 265 and 265 start at $344 and up (originally $449.99) and are the best watches for runners in my opinion (and the 265 is the one I personally own). You can read more about why I like it here .
-
The Forerunner 255 (older than the 265, but still a great watch) is $299 ($100 off) and the smaller 255S is $249 (also $100 off).
-
The Forerunner 955 (over the 965, which is no longer on sale) costs $399 ($100 off).
-
At $299.99 (down from $399.99), the rugged, solar-powered Instinct 2 Solar is a great watch for hikers and other outdoor enthusiasts.
Samsung
The Samsung Galaxy Watch 7, the newest version, is now just $196.44 for the 40mm size, down from the regular price of $299.99. The 44mm version costs $269.99, down from $329.99.
Samsung Galaxy Watch FE is also on sale. It was released earlier this year alongside the Galaxy Watch 7, but it’s a budget version of the watch with slightly less storage, a slightly smaller battery, and a lower price. Today, the Samsung Galaxy Watch FE costs $126.99, down from $199.99.
Suunto
Suunto’s outdoor watches aren’t as well known as their competitors, but there’s one model still on sale that’s worth keeping an eye on. The Suunto 9 Baro multisport costs $199.90 (down from $299).
Oops
Band Whoop, a screen-free fitness tracker, now costs just $199 for a 12-month subscription with equipment included. More details about this deal can be found here , including what accessories you should bring (as accessories like extra straps are also on sale).
Ring of Oura
Oura recently released a fourth generation ring , which is not commercially available (yet?). But the Generation 3 will be available at a discount this Cyber Monday, and functionally it’s almost the same watch. The main difference is that the third generation has bumps on the sensors inside (not a problem in my opinion – I’ve had mine for years). Oura has knocked the price down a few bucks from the Black Friday deal, and you can get the third generation ring right now for just $249 (black or silver, Horizon or Heritage style). That’s $50 off the regular price and $100 less than the fourth-generation equivalent.
