These 6 Cyber Monday Garmin deals are the perfect way to get an early start on your New Year's fitness resolutions – save up to AU$631

The Garmin Vivoactive 5 is a brilliant all-rounder with an AMOLED display and 11 days of battery life, making it a great alternative to an Apple Watch for runners and active users. The excellent Garmin Connect app can help you plan workouts and running routes, while you can follow along with gym-based exercises on the screen. It is, of course, more of a fitness tracker than a smartwatch, but it's good value even though we've seen it drop to AU$249 previously.

We called it "the best running watch ever" back when it debuted in 2022 and though it’s since been replaced by Garmin’s own Forerunner 570, we still rate the 955 very highly – especially since it can often be had for far less than its newer sibling. It might not be in our current guide to the best Garmin devices, but it's still a fantastic multisport watch. This Cyber Monday discount makes it AU$3 cheaper than the last good deal we saw during Amazon’s Prime sale in October.

Save a packet on this Cyber Monday deal on the 47mm Garmin Epix Pro standard edition. With an updated Elevate V5 heart rate sensor, multi-band GPS and an LED torch, it's the blueprint for a modern Garmin watch: fast, accurate and built like a tank. It can handle basically any kind of outdoor activity, and has 16GB of storage for saving music and GPX maps locally – handy for when you’re off grid. This deal is on the white model, but the black is only AU$898.

For the ultimate outdoor adventurer, the Fenix 8 builds on Garmin’s past flagship offerings with an even more advanced built-in GPS, a new heart rate sensor and improved waterproofing for diving. It also features an AMOLED display, a microphone and speaker for calls, and an LED torch carried over from the Fenix 7. Our reviewer said the main downside was the ‘eyewatering’ price, so this AU$350 discount at least partially addresses that.

This fantastic Garmin smartwatch deal will get you 49% off what would certainly be a welcome addition to any runner’s gear bag. The Forerunner 255 Music has many of the core features found in Garmin’s more expensive offerings, like the built-in GPS, the ability to listen to music stored, and even Garmin Pay, enabling you to leave your phone while out running but still tap-to-pay to buy that coffee on the way home.

Was the Fenix 8 above still too expensive, even with the discount? This previous-gen flagship still offers many of the multisport features of the Fenix 8 but at a significantly lower price thanks to this Cyber Monday discount. This is an excellent price for the Sapphire Edition but note this is for the Small (42mm) solar-charging variant, while the larger 51mm model is down to AU$999.
