Sweet holiday deal keeps the feature-packed Fitbit Charge 6 down at its lowest ever price… for now،
Is there a better fitness tracker than Google’s recently released Fitbit Charge 6? We certainly don’t think so, which is why it was extremely surprising to see this decidedly feature-rich wearable device get a steep $60 discount just a few weeks after its retail debut.
That’s a massive 38% off an already very reasonable list price of $160, and perhaps even more surprisingly, the markdown remained active at virtually every major U.S. retailer throughout the (extended) Black Friday season/ Cyber Monday.
That means you’ve had nearly three weeks to decide whether the Google-powered fitness tracker is right for you (and your holiday shopping budget) at this great price, and surprisingly, you still have some time left to spend this call while we write this. The emphasis is now on “little”, mind you, because the Black Monday… Christmas deal is apparently set to end later today at Best Buy and Google’s official US online store.
Meanwhile, Amazon does not indicate any expiration date for the FitbitCharge 6 discount, but if we were you, we certainly wouldn’t take the risk of seeing the promotion disappear there too tomorrow. Now it’s absolutely now is the time to place your order with your favorite retailer, especially if you want your chic new fitness band delivered before Christmas.
Sure, this thing doesn’t work with Wear OS and it’s not technically what we’d call a full-fledged alternative to the best smartwatches on the market, but it’s actually better for its battery life, which totally crushes the endurance ratings between charges of your Apple and
Samsung Galaxy Watches, for no less than seven whole days.
The Charge 6’s main advantage over its direct competitors from brands like Garmin is the native support for Google Maps, YouTube Music, and Google Wallet, which makes the activity tracker feel like a real smartwatch in several important ways.
The health monitoring tools are about as impressive as expected… and pretty darn remarkable for this price, while the color touchscreen is by no means a breeze for a “rudimentary” fitness tracker ” neither. In a word, you get a lot value for very little money…if you hurry.
