Amazon cuts prices on the Charge 3 and Fitbit Versa smartwatch

It’s that time of year again. The earth has completed its annual orbit around the sun and everyone is looking to make good on some fresh New Year’s resolutions. For many of us, that means trying to be healthier with the choices we make. Whether that’s sleeping a full 8 hours, exercising more, or just eating less depends on the individual, but whatever that resolution may be, it never hurts to get a little extra help with it. That’s where Fitbit comes in.

Amazon is slashing prices on Fitbit devices left and right. Everything from the Fitbit Versa to the Charge 3 is getting a sweet discount of $20 or more for a limited time. With step counting, heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, and a whole host of other features, the Fitbit Versa is one of the best fitness trackers on the market today. However, you can also get some of the cheaper Fitbit models for half the price if you don’t need all the bells and whistles. Here are the best Amazon Fitbit deals we could find:

The Versa is the latest fitness smartwatch in the Fitbit line. When it first hit the market, there was a lot of talk about how closely it resembles the Apple Watch — and for good reason. This Fitbit smartwatch is more than just a fitness tracker, it’s a fully-fledged mobile device. With smartphone app notifications, call, text, and calendar alerts, this smartwatch has all of the basic features you’d expect from a smart wearable. However, the Versa’s focus on fitness is what makes it worthwhile.

With constant heart rate, sleep, and activity tracking, this watch allows you to keep tabs on your health wherever you go. With over 4 days of battery life, you can go quite a while without having to worry about recharging. It also comes with water resistance up to 50 meters and GPS — though only the Fitbit Ionic comes with built-in GPS . Normally priced at $200, the Fitbit Versa is on sale for just $170.

If you’re looking to pick up a Fitbit for the sole purpose of activity tracking, the newest model in the Fitbit Charge line is an excellent option. The Fitbit Charge 3 can track activity, sleep cycles, and heart rate at any given time. Unlike the Charge 2, it also comes with a touchscreen display and water resistance up to 50 meters — making it easier to use even if you’re swimming. What makes this fitness tracker so valuable, however, is its long-lasting battery life. You can go a full 7 days without needing to charge your device.

Normally priced at $150, you can pick up the Fitbit Charge 3 for just $120 for a limited time.

Though the Versa and Charge 3 are two of the more popular Fitbit models, that doesn’t mean this sale only extends to them. Amazon is pretty much discounting the whole line of activity trackers right now. That means you can score a new device for under $60. Here are the best discounts we could find right now:

  • Fitbit Flex 2 — $41 off
  • Fitbit Alta HR — $50 off
  • Fitbit Charge 2 — $30 off
  • Fitbit Ionic — $30 off

Fossil’s first Wear OS 3 smartwatch looks like a better (and cheaper) Pixel Watch
fossil gen 6 wellness smartwatch wear os 3 pixel watch

Fossil today launched the Fossil Gen 6 Wellness Edition, its first Wear OS 3 watch. It's a minor update on something we've already seen before, with the major non-aesthetic updates here being driven by the Fossil Wellness app.

The Fossil Gen 6 is reasonably powerful. It's got a Snapdragon 4100+, 1 GB of RAM, 8GB of internal storage, and a 1,3-inch AMOLED display — all wrapped in a 44mm chassis. The connectivity specs are here, with Bluetooth 5.0 and all the usual suspects. There's 3ATM water resistance and sensors for your heart rate and blood oxygen saturation. These all play with the Wellness App and allow you to keep track of your vitals while exercising, sleeping, and passively. Fast charging is also included here, and it'll take your battery to 80% capacity in 30 minutes as with other Fossil watches.

Wear OS 3 is finally coming to these older smartwatches this month

Wear OS 3 has been supported by Samsung smartwatches for over a year at this point, but now it's finally coming to Fossil devices in just a few days. While the launch of the Google Pixel Watch today has put Wear OS 3 back in the spotlight, Fossil smartwatches are the first to be upgraded from the previous Wear OS 2 version.

While it's certainly exciting that Wear OS 3 is coming to more devices, it's important to note that it won't be headed to all of Fossil's lineup. As reported by Android Central, the upcoming Fossil Gen 6 Wellness Edition will be launching with Wear OS 3; the Fossil Gen 6, the Michael Kors Gen 6, and the Skagen Falster Gen 6 will all be receiving the OS update together when the Wellness Edition launches. Luckily, fans won't have to wait long as the update rolls out on October 17.

As Google’s first smartwatch, the Pixel Watch just doesn’t cut it
Someone wearing the Google Pixel Watch.

The Pixel Watch is finally here, and for all the hype that it once generated, the final product seems way off the bullseye. But make no mistake; this is definitely a Pixel smartwatch, complemented by a standout curvy design and a generous serving of neat software perks.

But the whole package isn’t generous enough for a $350+ price tag. Almost every pitfall of the Pixel Watch has to do with this pricing, from controversial hardware choices to an almost-there fitness package.
Much flash, little substance
