Wearables have exploded in popularity lately, and if you’re hoping to grab one for cheap, here’s what we expect from this year’s Black Friday smartwatch deals.
Smartwatches are popular holiday gifts because they are one of the easiest things to buy for other people. You don’t have to worry about sleeve lengths, shoe sizes, or color schemes. Smartwatches are also a no-brainer for anybody who’s a techie, and if you know a person’s favorite sport, then you can choose between fitness-centric watches, running watches, hiking watches, and even smartwatches for golfing. You really can’t lose. Today’s smartwatches are more than just great-looking timepieces. Modern wearables include smart features like GPS tracking, heart-rate monitoring, music playback, and notifications for everything you want to stay connected to. Many are even waterproof and can track swimming and other water-based activities. And with the holiday sale season starting, a number of these high-tech devices are going to be discounted for Black Friday and Cyber Monday, which are now only weeks away. If you’re already preparing to shop these Black Friday smartwatch deals, then read on to find out what to expect from this year’s sales. We’re expecting that Black Friday sales will be home to a ton of great smartwatch deals with discounts on all kinds of wearables, from the venerable Apple Watch to top-tier fitness trackers from brands like Fitbit and Garmin. The Apple Watch in particular is a hot commodity right now and will be a highly sought-after item for Black Friday. The Apple Watch SE and Series 6 were just released; these new launches right ahead of big holiday sales mean that we expect to see plenty of discounts on various Apple Watch models — especially last-gen units like the Apple Watch Series 3 and the recently discontinued Series 5.
