Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is on now, a mini version of Prime Day that has inspired competing sales at Target and Walmart. Plenty of fitness trackers and smartwatches are among the discounted items. Here are my picks for the best deals, including watches from Apple, Garmin, Fitbit, and Samsung.
Apple Watches
The Apple Watch SE, the most budget version of this smartwatch, is available starting at $169 today. (As with all Apple Watches, the price goes up if you want a larger size or if you buy the version with cellular connectivity.) That’s 32% off the original price of $249.
The Apple Watch Series 10, the one we crowned the best Apple Watch for most people, is available for $299 and up today, down from $399 regular price. Again, that’s the smaller, non-cellular version, with upgrades adding a bit—but all sizes and types are on sale.
If you’re looking for a bargain, check out the Apple Watch Series 9, which Walmart has for $219. It’s only a year older than the Series 10, and the features it’s missing are ones most people are unlikely to miss: the Series 10 has a wide-angle screen, a depth gauge, and a water temperature sensor for when you’re swimming or diving. The Series 10 is also able to play music out of an on-watch speaker. If you can live without those extras, this deal on the Series 9 is a whopping 45% off the original price for a great watch.
Garmin fitness watches
Garmin’s Forerunner 55 is still on that sale from a few days ago, when our Lifehacker’s deals writer Daniel Oropeza flagged it as his favorite deal of the day. It’s $149, a great price for a running watch that does all the basics. It will track your pace, location, heart rate, sleep, and more. It has a retro feel, with its MIP screen and button navigation instead of a touchscreen. But you really can’t beat the price.
Two other older-generation Forerunner watches are also on sale today, and since they both end in -55, you know they have that same MIP screen, which is reflective in sunlight and needs a backlight in the dark to light them up. (Many runners prefer MIP to the more smartwatch-style AMOLED screens, so who am I to judge?)
Aside from the screen, the Forerunner 255, a steal at $229 today, and it is almost identical to my favorite running watch, the Forerunner 265. (The only other major feature it’s missing? Music storage, but you can get a Forerunner 255 Music for just $20 more.) That said, the Forerunner 265 is also on sale today, for $399, which is $50 off its usual price.
Garmin’s Forerunner 955 is the big brother to the 255, with onboard maps that make it great for hiking and trail running. It’s just $349, down from an original price of $499 when it was released in 2022. This is the lowest price either I or our resident marathoner Meredith Dietz have seen on this watch. And if you’d like to go for the solar version, to top up your battery when you’re out in the sun, the Forerunner 955 Solar is $399 today.
The Fenix 7 Pro Sapphire Solar is now one generation out of date, but it’s still an excellent watch, with solar charging, a scratch-resistant screen made of sapphire, and a ton of deluxe features made for the rugged multi-sport athlete. It’s $646, down from an original price of $899, for the 47 millimeter size. (That would be a “large” in any other watch, but the Fenix also offers a larger 51-millimeter size.) All sizes are on sale.
If you want something a little less sport-specific, Garmin’s Vivoactive 5 is $217 today, down from a regular price of $299. This is the lifestyle smartwatch that beat out the Pixel Watch 3 in my head-to-head comparison. If you’re looking for a fresh alternative to Fitbit smartwatches, the Vivoactive 5 would be my pick. If you want an actual Fitbit, though, those are on sale as well.
Fitbit trackers and smartwatches
All of Fitbit’s major models are on sale today, including the iconic bracelet-styled Charge 6 for $119, originally $159. Opinions vary, but if you want mine: The Charge 6 is the best Fitbit. (If you want a smartwatch, go for a Garmin.)
If you’re more of a minimalist, though, the Inspire 3 is worth a look. Normally retailing for $99, it’s just $69 today. The Inspire 3 doesn’t have its own GPS chipset, instead relying on your phone for location. It’s also just a more pared-down experience in other ways, with fewer exercise types and fewer apps.
Those Fitbit smartwatches are still on sale, though. The Versa 4 is $159, down from $199, and the Sense 2 is $199, down from $249.
Samsung watches
Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Ultra is on sale today for just $409, down from $649. It comes in a 47mm size with LTE cellular connectivity, and is basically Samsung’s answer to the Apple Watch Ultra 2. We have more details on its features here.

Pixel watches
Google’s Pixel smartwatch line is discounted for this sale as well. The Pixel Watch 3, which I found to be delightful for casual fitness tracking, is $289 and up today (depending on size and connectivity options, of course), down from an original price of $349. You can also get a Pixel Watch 2 for $199 (originally $249) or an original Pixel watch, released in 2023, for $89.
