Read our full review of the Fitbit Inspire 3.
If you don't want a small smartphone strapped to your wrist at all times, the Fitbit Inspire 3 is Mashable's top budget pick. It's a simple, low-profile tracker that offers comprehensive health and fitness metrics (including sleep data) without the bulky interface. At well under $100, it provides everything you need and nothing you don't.

For Android users, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 is down to $219.99 (originally $299.99), coming within $1.50 of its all-time record low of $218.49. Earning a 4.6-star rating and a Mashable Choice Award, it features a thinner "squircle" design that lies flatter on the wrist, tight Google Gemini AI integration, and deep biometrics through Samsung Health (including personalized sleep coaching and daily Energy Scores).

While the last-gen Series 11 isn't seeing discounts on Amazon right now, Apple's flagship Apple Watch Series 12 (GPS, 42mm) is down to $349.99 from $399.00. That $49.01 markdown brings Apple's latest hardware down to an accessible price point ahead of Prime Day. It delivers even faster processing, a display that's twice as scratch-resistant, deeper Apple Intelligence integration via Workout Buddy, and advanced health monitoring like Daily Readiness scores and more frequent heart rate variability (HRV) readings.

Why we like it
Read our full review of the CMF Watch 3 Pro.
If you'd like a capable fitness tracker, but you're not in the mood to spend much, I have good news: October Prime Day has the CMF Nothing Watch 3 Pro on sale for only $59. In testing this model last year, it quickly became one of my favorites, and left me shocked at how CMF priced this so low, given its features. It does have a larger face that measures about 1.5 inches, so keep that in mind if you prefer a more petite fitness tracker.

Frequently Asked Questions
Fitness trackers (like the Fitbit Inspire 3) are usually smaller, cheaper, and focused on health metrics like heart rate, sleep, and step counting. Smartwatches (like the Galaxy Watch 8 or Apple Watch Series 12) function more like an extension of your phone, allowing you to run AI assistants, answer calls, reply to texts, and download third-party apps.
It depends on the brand. Apple, Samsung, and Garmin give you full access to your health data for free out of the box. However, brands like Fitbit require an optional premium monthly subscription if you want to view historical analytics and personalized readiness scores.
