If you want to save money on the Fitbit Charge 6, Pixel Watch 3, and other Google devices, you have to act quickly. The company’s New Year’s deal, which ends today, January 18, at 11:59 PM PT, was a great way to start the year. Although we expect the matching promotions to end at the same time, other merchants, such as Amazon and Best Buy, are already matching Google’s rates in some cases.
The Pixel Watch 2 and the Pixel Watch 3—the latter of which is still our favorite “Fitbit”—are both now available for the second-best price to date. The 41mm Pixel Watch 3 starts at $299.99 ($50 discount) at Amazon, Best Buy, and the Google Store, while the Wi-Fi-enabled Pixel Watch 2 costs $199.99 ($50 off) at Google, Best Buy, and Target.
Google Assistant, Gmail, Calendar, and Wallet integration, FDA-approved EKGs, and automatic workout tracking are just a few of the Fitbit and Google-powered features found in both wearables. But last year’s Pixel 3 also came in a bigger 44mm version, whilst the previous generation Pixel Watch 2 only came in 41mm.
Other noteworthy improvements of the Pixel Watch 3 include greater connection with other Google devices, AI-generated fitness recommendations, significantly longer battery life, and offline Google Maps. For example, the Pixel Watch 3 allows you to operate your Google TV from your wrist or monitor a Nest Doorbell or Nest Cam feed, both of which are not available with the Pixel Watch 2.

The Fitbit Charge 6 is also on sale at Amazon, Best Buy, and the Google Store for $129.95 ($30 off), which is roughly $30 more than its lowest price ever, if you would rather use a low-cost fitness tracker than a smartwatch.
Like its predecessor, the fitness band has a bright OLED display, a built-in GPS, and a variety of sensors to monitor your health. However, the Fitbit Charge 6 has an enhanced heart rate algorithm and is compatible with some fitness equipment via Bluetooth, unlike its predecessor. You may still use Google Wallet and turn-by-turn navigation with Google Maps, even if it does not support as many Google services as a Pixel Watch 3.

Google is offering discounts on a number of wireless earbud pairs in addition to fitness trackers and smartwatches. Amazon, Google, and Best Buy are currently offering the Pixel Buds Pro 2 for $199 ($30 off), which is still their second-best price to date. They are also available from Google in a bundle with the Fitbit Charge 6 for $130.95 ($29 off) or the Pixel Watch 3 for $441.99 ($58 off).
Our top pick for Pixel phone owners are Google’s most recent wireless earphones. They are more pleasant to wear because they have a lightweight construction and more noise cancellation than the previous model. Additionally, they provide some fantastic Google-specific benefits, such as the ability to track the charging case using the company’s recently enhanced Find My Device network and immediately access Google’s Gemini AI assistant. Several Pixel-only functions, such as head tracking spatial audio, are still supported via the earphones.

If you can not afford the Pixel Buds Pro 2, you can still acquire the Pixel Buds A-Series from Google, Best Buy, and Amazon for $79.95 ($20 down), which is $20 less than their previous lowest price. Although they lack some of the more sophisticated features of the Pro model, such as active noise cancellation, they nevertheless provide great sound quality for the money and a snug fit with a variety of cozy ear tips. Additionally, the latest earbuds enable Google Assistant for hands-free voice control and work nicely with Pixel phones.
