But they’re not exactly cheap even though they’re on sale. If you want something under $100, the Fitbit Inspire 3 has returned to its all-time low price of $69.95 ($30 off) at Amazon, Best Buy, and Target.Fitbit Inspire 3$70$10030% off$70$70 at Amazon$70 at Walmart$70 at Best BuyThe wearable nails the essentials, accurately tracking basic health and fitness metrics. It’s a fine choice if you only want to track steps, though it can go deeper, offering features such as irregular heart rate alerts, sleep insights, and tools for managing stress. The tracker itself is lightweight and comfortable enough to wear while you sleep (The Verge’s Victoria Song sometimes forgot she was even wearing it). Details are easy to read on its bright OLED display, and the tracker can last up to ten days on a single charge. If you don’t want to wear it on your wrist, you can remove it from the band and use it with a clip attachment instead.RelatedSome of our favorite Apple tech is cheaper than ever during Amazon’s Big Spring SaleGovee’s color-changing smart lamps are on sale for up to 30 percent offUnsurprisingly, this budget-friendly Fitbit lacks features found in pricier models. You’ll need to pay more to get advanced health tools like blood oxygen tracking and EKGs. There’s also no contactless payments, built-in GPS, or smart features like support for Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant (most of which the Fitbit Charge 6 offers). Instead, the tracker just sticks to simple notifications, alarms, and timers, which keeps things easy to use and avoids unnecessary distractions.Read our hands-on impressions of the Fitbit Inspire 3.Verge DealsSign up for Verge Deals to get deals on products we’ve tested sent to your inbox weekly.Email (required)Sign UpBy submitting your email, you agree to our Terms and Privacy Notice.

The Fitbit Inspire 3 wearable device has returned to its lowest price of $69.95, a 30% discount, thanks to Amazon’s Big Spring Sale 2026. As highlighted by Sheena Vasani, this represents a significant savings, bringing the device closer to a budget-friendly option for consumers. The Inspire 3, while lacking some of the advanced features found in higher-end Fitbits like blood oxygen tracking or ECG capabilities, delivers reliable tracking of essential health and fitness metrics such as steps, irregular heart rate alerts, sleep insights, and stress management tools. Victoria Song of The Verge noted the device’s lightweight and comfortable design, even reporting that she occasionally forgot it was on her wrist. The tracker boasts an OLED display offering easy-to-read details and a battery life of up to ten days on a single charge, providing substantial longevity for users. Furthermore, the Inspire 3 can be used with a clip attachment, expanding its utility beyond traditional wrist-worn applications. However, Vasani emphasizes that the device intentionally prioritizes simplicity, omitting features found in pricier models like contactless payments, built-in GPS, and smart assistant integration (Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant). Instead, it focuses on core notifications, alarms, and timers, designed to avoid distracting the user. The tracker's core function remains straightforward: accurately recording basic activity data. It’s positioned as a suitable choice for individuals seeking a simple, reliable device for tracking essential fitness metrics without the added complexity and cost of more sophisticated wearables. Sheena Vasani further details that the device’s success relies on its ability to accurately track vital data, and its low cost makes it a more accessible option for those interested in monitoring their health remotely. |
