Black Friday has dropped all of the latest Fitbits — plus the Pixel Watch 2 and 3 with Fitbit Premium packed in — to match some of the lowest prices we've ever seen on our favorite fitness trackers and watches.

If you're looking to spend as little as possible, the Fitbit Inspire 3 at $69 (30% off) will give you 10 days of useful insights while barely weighing down your wrist. The Fitbit Charge 6 sits at $99 (38% off), giving you more health sensors, a larger display, NFC payments, and built-in GPS for just $30 more.

The Fitbit Charge 6 has been our number-one pick for the best fitness tracker since its launch a year ago. It has a week-long battery life, support for Google Maps, Google Wallet, and YouTube Music, accurate health sensors for workouts and catching irregular heart rhythms, and Fitbit Premium insights. At night, it tracks everything from HRV and SpO2 to skin temperature and breathing rate. It's truly the all-around tracker package!

The Fitbit Inspire 3 is all about simplicity. It doesn't have the Charge 6's extra sensors, GPS, or tap-to-pay, but if it's truly all about a comfortable, lightweight design, basic notification pop-ups, and a few extra days of battery life, then this petite tracker will be a better option than the heavier Charge.

Outside of fitness trackers, you'll also find some Black Friday Fitbit deals on its smartwatches: the Fitbit Sense 2 is $179.95 ($70 off), while the Fitbit Versa 4 is $119.95 ($80 off). Both watches have technically fallen lower once in their deal history — the Versa 4 at $104 and the Sense 2 at $139 — but they're both at the second-lowest price we've ever seen.

Because Google has all but confirmed that it won't make any more Fitbit-branded watches, focusing on the expensive, short-lived, and Android-only Pixel Watches, the Sense 2 and Versa 4 are the best you're going to get, as long as they remain in stock. But despite its age, the Sense 2 remains an excellent option for health tracking paired with a gorgeous AMOLED display, while the Versa 4 is more stripped down but very affordable at this price.

Fitbit Sense 2

The Fitbit Sense 2 remains one of the best fitness smartwatches today, thanks to its 6-day battery life, packed array of health sensors — similar to the Charge 6 but with a cEDA sensor for more accurate stress tracking — and its large, bright AMOLED display for Google Maps and notifications. It launched at an expensive $299, but now the price drop and this deal make it much more reasonable.

Fitbit Versa 4

We initially gave the Fitbit Versa 4 a middling review because $230 felt too expensive for what it offered; at $119, however, it's a steal for the essentials. The Versa 4 lacks the Sense 2's all-around health tracking, focusing on basic heart rate, stress, and passive AFib, but shares its 1.58-inch AMOLED, Google Maps/ Wallet support, mic & speaker for Bluetooth calls, Alexa voice commands, and Fitbit Premium training tools.

You can even snag the Pixel Watch 3 for $279 ($70 off) thanks to Black Friday, which may not have the Fitbit branding but does come with six months of Fitbit Premium, new Fitbit Cardio Load insights, and all of the same health sensors as the Sense 2, except with a full array of Wear OS apps and Google Assistant support.

Personally, I recommend the Pixel Watch 2 for $145 (42% off), since it offers the same Fitbit sensors for so much less! Admittedly, my Pixel Watch 3 vs. 2 guide has a decent list of upgrades, but not so many that I'd want to spend $134 more!

Google Pixel Watch 2

The Pixel Watch 2 is the perfect choice for Android phone owners who want the Fitbit Sense 2's health tracking, but without the stripped-down app experience. The Watch 2's Play Store access and Google Assistant support make it more useful from day to day, though it also requires daily charges.

If you're on the hunt for other fitness watch options, these early Garmin Black Friday deals may tempt you: some are much pricier than Fitbit watches, but they're also newer, don't require a subscription, and have some in-depth training tools for runners and cyclists that Fitbit doesn't offer.
