Fitbit and Pixel Watch prices are dropping ahead of Black Friday

Fitbit and Pixel Watch discounts are starting to show up ahead of Black Friday, with Amazon cutting prices across both on the smartwatch range and several older Fitbit trackers. Some of the more interesting deals are on Charge 6 and Pixel Watch 4 and 5.

Black Friday is still more than 10 days away, but the wearable discounts are starting to pile up. We already saw the Garmin sale get underway early, and now Fitbit and Google Pixel Watch prices are moving as well.

Charge 6 is still the Fitbit deal to watch

The table below pulls in the latest qualifying Fitbit offers from our live wearable deals tracker and updates as prices change.

Fitbit’s lineup is slightly odd these days because Google has taken it in two different directions. The newer Fitbit Air strips things back with a screenless design, while Charge 6 remains the more conventional fitness tracker with a display, built-in GPS, ECG, EDA, NFC and Google services on the wrist.

That makes Charge 6 at the current price pretty compelling. We went through the differences in our Fitbit Air versus Charge 6 comparison, and the older tracker still offers considerably more hardware if you want one device to handle workouts, health tracking and everyday wrist interaction.

Inspire 3 has also dropped. It remains a good option if you mainly want steps, sleep, heart rate and long battery life without paying for Charge 6 features you may never use.

The Fitbit Luxe is showing a large percentage reduction. But this is an ageing model and the headline discount is based on a much higher previous price, so the percentage saving looks more dramatic than the buying decision really is.

Sense 2 is also discounted. So that is the one to get if you want all the health sensing smarts Fitbit currently has on offer.

Pixel Watch discounts are also interesting

Google’s smartwatch deals are arguably the stronger part of the sale because they include both previous-generation watches and the current Pixel Watch 5.

What’s interesting is that Pixel Watch 5 deals are already appearing despite the watch only launching in August. The latest generation brought a faster platform, more memory, improved GPS processing, new strength-training tools and Google’s newer Health Guardian features. We covered the full changes in our Pixel Watch 5 versus Pixel Watch 4 comparison.

Pixel Watch 4 still makes sense if its discount widens further. It already brought a brighter display, better battery life and dual-band GPS, so it is not suddenly obsolete because Watch 5 exists.

Pixel Watch 3 is the awkward one. It is currently discounted, but the gap to the newer models may not be large enough to make it the obvious choice. If Pixel Watch 4 or 5 drops further as Black Friday approaches, the older model will need a stronger discount to stay interesting.
