Fitbit is one of the most reputable names in fitness wearables and rightly so — the brand offers a huge variety of fitness and health trackers and smartwatches at different price points for different people’s needs.
Whether you’re a serious runner who wants to track their mileage or someone who just wants to improve their health and set a few fitness goals, you won’t have to look far to find a Fitbit catered to your active lifestyle.
Taking advantage of sales during Amazon Prime Day has historically been one of the best ways to join in on the Fitbit craze at a discount — and this year is no different. Amazon just announced that Prime Day 2021 will run on June 21-22 start at midnight PDT on June 21 and run through the end of June 22. All new or existing Amazon Prime members (new members get a free 30-day trial when they sign up) are able to take advantage of the deal.
We don’t yet know all the deals, but during last year’s sale, Fitbit discounted its popular Versa 2 (and Versa 2 Special Edition) and Versa Lite smartwatches, as well as its smart scale, the Aria Air.
If you’re on the fence about buying either activity tracker, or even if you just want to give a Fitbit as a gift, Prime Day 2021 is the perfect time to take the leap — and it lets you save some money in the process. Check out our Fitbit buying guide for more information on the brand’s trackers and which might be the best fit for your lifestyle.
With automatic activity tracking and a huge screen for both mid-run stats and the relax app, the Versa 3 has nearly all the perks of the Fitbit line at a not-totally-absurd price point and with a stylish design.
With its large, squared-off touch screen, the Fitbit Versa 2 is an attractive and affordable mix of smartwatch and activity tracker. Down to $129, it has dropped to a solid deal price to pick one up for.
The Sense smartwatch has a ton of added features, focusing on heart health and stress management, giving you a more holistic look at your well-being.
A non-fussy Fitbit Inspire.
Prime Day 2021 deals have yet to be announced but last year, we saw serious discounts on some of the top Fitbit models. The Versa 2 was discounted by $50 and ran at $129 — and is our top budget Fitbit, perfect for those in the market for a health and fitness tracker or smartwatch without breaking the bank.
The Versa Lite was down from $180 to $125, and its smart scale, the Aria Air, was running at $35, roughly $15 below MSRP.
The Fitbit you buy is a matter of both personal preference and how you intend to use it. Fitbits are great for tracking health metrics like stress, sleep, and resting heart rate, but they’re also amazing for tracking workouts or training for a race or event. Since each model automatically tracks your sleep and activities, which to choose comes down to individual features.
We’ve tried nearly every Fitbit on the market and go into great detail about which is right for whom in our guide to the best Fitbits. But for the quick-hit highlights, here are our top picks:
If you’re looking to become healthier, we love the Fitbit Sense. This tracker has just about every bell and whistle you need from a Fitbit including 20 exercise modes, built-in GPS, water resistance, and in-depth exercise stats. It also has health-specific metrics like oxygen saturation and ECG readings to monitor your heart, electrodermal activity (EDA) readings to analyze your stress levels, and
mindfulness
programs to help you lower them.
If you just need a tracker to keep you active each day or to help you train for a race, the Charge 4 is budget-friendly, doesn’t take up too much room on your wrist, and has fitness features like built-in GPS, 50m of water resistance, 20 exercise modes, and a long battery life.
Then there’s the Versa 3, a full-featured smartwatch that’s able to fit seamlessly into your daily life and improve everything from your health and fitness to your productivity at work. It’s our favorite overall Fitbit, and features a bright colorface display, long battery life, built-in GPS, and music storage, as well as Amazon Alexa or
Google Assistant
connectivity.

Yes, you have to be an Amazon Prime member in order to access all Prime Day 2021 deals. If you’ve yet to sign up for the service, Amazon offers a free 30-day trial of Prime via its website. We recommend signing up for the free trial for the sale.
