Smartwatch and Fitness Tracker Deals

Whether you’re tackling a health-focused New Year’s resolution or simply want to make your life easier in 2026, now’s the perfect time to invest in a new smartwatch. Many of our favorite smartwatch and fitness tracker models are currently marked down, including top wearables from Apple, Garmin, FitBit, and Samsung.

No matter what your needs are, be it fitness training, health monitoring, or lifestyle (or perhaps all three), there’s a discounted smartwatch for you this month. So, don’t let another second tick by — take a look at the best January smartwatch deals before they’re gone.

Apple Watch Deals

The second-gen Apple Watch SE is a great value at its current sale price of $159. It offers many of the same core features of the premium Apple Watches, including fall detection, irregular heart rate notifications, and car crash monitoring. You get the same access to apps and connectivity features, as well as a nearly identical look. Although it’s missing an always-on display and some of the more specialized health metrics, like body temperature and ECG, our expert reviewer concludes, “the second-gen SE is a worthy alternative [to the Apple Watch Series 10] for staying active, connected, and safe on a budget.”

The Apple Watch Ultra 2 is best suited for hardcore adventure enthusiasts. It’s the most rugged Apple watch, featuring a durable titanium case, extended 55-hour battery life (a full day longer than the Series 10), an 86-decibel emergency siren, and an impressive 40-meter depth gauge. Plus, the optional cellular connectivity means you can leave your phone at home without worry. If you’re often exercising off the grid, pick up this tough smartwatch while it’s $250 off.

Samsung Smartwatch Deals

For Android users, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 is one of our top recommendations. It builds upon the high performance of the Galaxy Watch 6, adding dual-frequency GPS, more efficient software, and improved health and sleep tracking, including FDA-approved sleep apnea detection. Plus, it leverages Galaxy AI to provide a holistic Energy Score and personalized wellness tips. From fitness tracking to smart connectivity features, there’s not much this smartwatch can’t do—and it’s 29% off right now.

For serious Android explorers and athletes, the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra offers the technical performance and durability you need. In addition to highly detailed sleep analysis (including snore detection) and multisport tracking, it features AI-based recommendations to maximize your progress, giving an energy score, wellness score, and more. In terms of hardware, it’s slightly bigger and beefier with a titanium build, and even has a customizable quick button to make navigation easier. Currently over $270 off, it’s the perfect time to invest in this adventure companion.

Garmin Smartwatch Deals

The Garmin Venu Sq 2 is our Editors’ Pick for an affordable fitness-focused smartwatch—and that’s without the additional $81 discount. It packs in a ton of health features with more than 25 workout modes, GPS tracking, step count, heart rate, pulse oximeter, stress, respiration, hydration stats, and some of the best sleep tracking on the market. Plus, it supports calendar and weather apps, Garmin mobile pay, and smartphone notifications, making it a well-rounded and practical wearable. While lacking the third-party app support of the Apple Watch SE or Samsung Galaxy Watch 7, the Venu Sq 2 excels in battery life, lasting up to 11 days in smartwatch mode or 26 hours in GPS mode.

Per our expert review, the Garmin Vivoactive 5 is “an excellent fitness-focused smartwatch that delivers accurate heart rate measurements, actionable health insights, and key lifestyle features.” Other standout features include a robust 11-day battery life, onboard music storage, nap tracking, and a specialized wheelchair mode. Plus, it’s an aesthetically stunning fitness tracker-smartwatch hybrid, thanks to the bright, responsive AMOLED touchscreen and sleek, rounded design. Best of all, it’s on sale with more than a $100 discount.

Though smaller than most other Garmin smartwatches, the Instinct 2S is tough, durable, and ready to accompany you on your most intense adventures, even in the backcountry. It’s thermal- and shock-resistant with an impressive water-safe rating up to 100 meters (328 feet). In addition to advanced fitness and sports performance features, it offers some of the best tracking and navigation tech out there with a built-in three-axis compass, a barometric altimeter, and three global satellite systems: GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo. Plus, you’ll be able to connect your smartphone to receive emails, texts, and other smart notifications.

Performance-focused athletes will get the most use out of Garmin’s Forerunner 55. It’s packed with helpful training tools, including a PacePro feature that provides GPS-based pace guidance based on your selected course. Advanced wellness features, such as intensity minutes, fitness age, and all-day respiration, help you gain insight into your body’s functions and how to optimize your training. While it’s best suited for running, it can also efficiently track cycling, swimming, Pilates, HIIT, and other workouts. We haven’t yet reviewed this model, but awarded its predecessor, the Garmin Forerunner 45, an “Excellent” rating.

Fitbit Deals

Boasting a long six-day battery life, the Fitbit Versa 4 offers classic style with fitness-forward performance. Beyond the 40 exercise modes, it can track and record important health metrics like heart rate, blood oxygen saturation, overnight skin temperature variation, and sleep. Whether you use Android or iOS, this smartwatch is an excellent choice for those who prefer a more straightforward fitness tracker and don’t need all the high-tech connectivity features. In our testing, we especially loved the responsive touchscreen and physical navigation button, as well as the variety of watch face choices.

Like other Fitbits, the Sense 2 is relatively slim and lightweight, with a focus on fitness and health. In particular, our reviewer loved the excellent stress-management features, including real-time mood tracking and mindfulness guidance. Compared with many other smartwatches, the battery life is significantly better, lasting nearly six days on a single charge while tracking key health metrics and exercise, such as step count, heart rate, sleep score, and more.

Fun for kiddos and reassuring for parents, the Fitbit Ace earned our Editors’ Choice award for kid-friendly smartwatch. Designed for children aged 7 to 11, it comes loaded with engaging activity-focused games, featuring friendly digital mascots to encourage young ones. Regarding safety, the parental controls are pretty robust, allowing location tracking and restricting texting and calls to trusted contacts only. If you need a smartwatch for the young techie in your life, look no further.

The Fitbit Charge 6 is one of the most capable and affordable fitness trackers out there, according to our review. With 40 exercise modes, heart rate sensors, and a slim design, its primary focus is on health and fitness, but you can also access Google Maps, Google Wallet, and YouTube Music. Plus, use your stress management score, nightly sleep score, and on-wrist mindfulness sessions to monitor and improve your mental health. If you don’t want a bulkier, traditional watch face, this is the fitness tracker for you.

Google Pixel Watch Deal

The Google Pixel Watch 3 is a sleek smartwatch that offers Fitbit fitness tracking technology, alongside an extensive selection of apps and lifestyle features. You can seamlessly connect your smartphone, play music, control your smart home, respond to emails and texts, use AI to answer your phone, and more. In terms of health and fitness, you’ll find everything from steps and sleep to cardio readiness and nutrition. Not to mention, it features multiple advanced sensors, including an ECG, a multipath optical heart-rate sensor, skin temperature, and SpO2. Per our review, it’s “one of the best Android smartwatches” and earned a rating of “Excellent.” Right now, it’s available for less.
