On the more affordable side of things, the previous-generation Fossil Gen 5E sells for $170 and will refresh your fitness-tracking timepiece for less. It may not run the latest chipset or software, but provides a lower-end price point for getting in on the smart wearable game. There’s a similar 1.2-inch display, but no always-on feature like the lead deal.
Though the real front runner in wearables has to be Apple Watch Series 7, and you can still save on an assortment of styles right now. Delivering prices as low as $280, there are a wide range of 41 and 45mm models marked down alongside cellular configurations at up to $140 off and more.
