Fitbit’s Dominance in the Fitness Tracker Market
Although Fitbit’s name didn’t feature on the list of best smartwatches for 2023, the brand dominates the latest fitness tracker charts alongside rival Garmin. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly smart band, Fitbit offers multiple options for every need and preference, from fashionistas to cash-strapped gym enthusiasts and even children aged six and upwards.
Fitbit Ace 3
The Fitbit Ace 3 is an activity tracker for kids that is water-resistant to 50 meters, has up to eight days of battery life, and is available in three color options. While it may not be the best smartwatch for kids available today, it can do many useful and fun functions at a very reasonable price.
Price and Discounts
At a list price of $79.95, Fitbit Ace 3 is currently being sold at Walmart and Amazon for $31 off (39%) compared to its list price. This considerable discount makes the Fitbit Ace 3 an attractive and affordable wearable device for motivating children towards a more active lifestyle.
Inventory and Availability
Amazon currently only carries the black/racer red version of the Fitbit Ace 3, having run out of yellow and “blue astro green” inventory. Parents looking to purchase variants in these colors may want to act fast. Walmart still has all three models in stock (for online orders), but it’s unclear when the promotion will end.
Features and Benefits
The third-generation Ace tracker has playful and robust design elements, “all-day” activity tracking capabilities, water resistance up to 50 meters deep, and animated clock faces that grow and develop throughout the day as children move. Additionally, the Fitbit Ace 3 boasts an impressive battery life rating of over a week, making it an excellent value for such a low-cost wearable device.
