Looking for a fun way to encourage your child to remain active? This is a great activity tracker that's also swimproof. It's also got great battery life and is sized well for small wrists. What's more, it does require a paired phone to work, so if your child hasn't yet been given one, it might make managing the device a bit of a chore. To get this discount, be sure to check the coupon box below the price.
The Forerunner 55 is Garmin's entry-level running smartwatch and already pretty affordable, but a range of retailers including JB are discounting it by a further 28% for Black Friday. As stated in our 4-star review, we think this is a great option for beginners or those looking to step up from a basic fitness tracker. And despite the name this one also tracks more than running, with modes for swimming, cycling, yoga and more.
If you want to move on from your Apple Watch to something that's more fitness oriented, Garmin's Vivoactive 5 is ideal. For your money, you're getting a lovely AMOLED display, up to 11 days of battery life and GPS tracking, along with a heck of a lot of fitness features for the gym goer.
Close to its lowest ever price on Amazon, the Instinct 2 is a heavy-duty Garmin smartwatch that offers an immense 28 days of battery life (or 30 hours with GPS mode enabled) and a waterproof rating of up to 100 metres. You also get the usual comprehensive suite of fitness tracking and workout suggestions, all clearly legible on its monochromatic display.
You can grab the smaller 40mm model for the same price.
Released in late 2023, in our review of the Venu 3 we loved its long 14-day battery life, lifestyle looks, great AMOLED display and broad range of tracking capabilities. We did ding it for its price, however, which feels a little high... but this continuing Black Friday discount helps with that by shaving AU$152 off the RRP on the black colourway.
Dropping to a few dollars shy of its lowest ever price on Amazon, now is a great time to snap up the excellent Garmin Venu 3S. It expertly blends smartwatch and fitness functions, with all information displayed on a gorgeous AMOLED screen. The 'S' here refers to its smaller 41mm size, but it's still ideal for all wrists. Only the Pebble Grey and Sage Grey colourways are still discounted – the rest have gone out of stock.
We have seen it drop to a much lower price, and that may happen come Black Friday itself, but we still rate this current saving on Garmin's Instinct 2X Solar smartwatch. It practically has an infinite battery life when exposed to at least three hours of direct sunlight per day and is built to military standard. You also get 24/7 health and fitness tracking, along with a built-in LED flashlight.
If you want all the best fitness features on a bright, AMOLED display, the Garmin Epix 2 is the fitness watch for you. Its fitness features are suitable for both the most adept and inexperienced trainers, with accurate GPS and excellent mapping. Its respectable 75 hour battery life is dwarfed by other Garmin watches, but that big display is the star.
The larger 51mm size version of the Epix Pro 2 is also discounted. This really is the ultimate outdoor watch, with a built-in torch, all kinds of activity tracking (including surfing and skiing), and packed full of features with up to 31 days of battery life. All those features generally come with the whopper of a price tag, but the 51mm model is 46% off on Amazon for Black Friday, a proportionally better discount than even the 47mm version above. Be sure to apply the coupon that appears below the price to get the full discount.
