New to fitness trackers? Here's why the Fitbit Inspire 2 is the best smartwatch for under $50 this Black Friday
You don't need to spend hundreds on a quality fitness tracker – the Fitbit Inspire 2 is less than $50 this Black Friday weekend


If you’re new to the wonderful world of fitness trackers, forking out hundreds of dollars for one of the latest models might seem a bit extravagant. The good news is, you can save your money. The tried and tested Fitbit Inspire 2 is the perfect option if you're looking for your first smartwatch — and it comes in at less than $50 for Black Friday weekend.
You heard that right. Fitted with heart rate tracking, a motion sensor count (to track your daily steps), up to 10 days worth of battery life and more, the Fitbit Sense is down to just $49.95 on Amazon. This is $30 less than its usual price of $79.95 and one of the best offers we’ve seen this year.
While the wearable won't be right for everyone, it's fair to say this simple-yet-effective Fitbit model is ideal for those just starting out on their health and fitness journey.

Want to track your stats for under $50? You can do so with the lightweight, easy-to-use Fitbit Inspire 2 which can count your steps, monitor your heart rate and comes with up to 10 days worth of battery life. There's a lot to love about this budget-but-brilliant fitness tracker.
When perusing the best Fitbits, the sheer amount of choice can be overwhelming, especially if you've never tracked your health and fitness stats before. But in our view the Fitbit Inspire 2 is the best budget model out of the range, thanks to its excellent battery life, sleep-tracking abilities and responsiveness.
What's more, while the newer models in the range come with six months of free access to the Fitbit Premium platform, this older watch actually offers a full year. That means six extra months of getting to analyze and track your stats on the innovative Premium app.
While it can be tempting to splash out on an all-singing, all-dancing Garmin model, we're confident that this cheaper option is a better bet for most people. No matter whether you prefer to swim, strength train, or sprint, the Fitbit Inspire 2 can help you monitor your activity levels day in, day out and you should consider snapping this deal up while it's still under $50.
