For those in the market for a new fitness tracker or smartwatch, Amazon Prime Day is the time to shop. The mega retailer tends to drop prices on top brands like Apple, Fitbit, Garmin, Samsung, and more — often to record lows.

Though the sale formally runs on July 16 and 17, we’ve already started tracking the best fitness tracker deals at Amazon. Things are a bit slow right now, with Apple Watch and Samsung Galaxy deals running the show. Garmin and Fitbit deals are currently MIA, but we definitely expect those to start popping up soon.

If you don’t see something that jumps out at you yet, be sure to check back as Prime Day nears. We’ll be updating this page with the latest price drops on fitness trackers and smartwatches ahead of and throughout the sale.

Why we like it

Launched last summer, Samsung’ Galaxy Watch 6 was dubbed the “king of the Android smartwatch mountain” by Mashable tech reporter Alex Perry. The sixth iteration saw a suite of added sleep and fitness features, including a nuanced breakdown of sleep habits, sleep coaching, personalized heart rate zones, and irregular heart rate notifications. Plus, it lasts longer on a single charge and features a 20 percent larger display than previous models. As of July 1, the 40mm version with Bluetooth is down to just $196.95 at Amazon. That’s 34% in savings and an a new record-low. It’s possible Prime Day will drop prices even further, but you can rest assured that you’ll get a great deal if you add it to your cart now.
