My favourite Fitbit is even more affordable, thanks to this exclusive Amazon offer

The Charge 6 is ideal for fitness enthusiasts on a budget

The Fitbit Charge 6 is my favourite wearable out of the Fitbit family for many reasons; it offers advanced (and reliable) health metrics, has built-in GPS, Google apps, and for less than £140, I’d say it’s fairly priced. So, I was shocked when I saw that Amazon has knocked a further 22% off its RRP – making it even better value for money.

Now, you may be thinking ‘Surely the more expensive Fitbit models are better?’. Yes and no, it depends what you’re looking for. I'm a fitness enthusiast and, what I love the most about the Charge 6, is that it’s a hybrid of a fitness tracker and smartwatch, so you get the best of both worlds when it comes to features. There are your typical tracking features that you'd find on a fitness tracker – such as workouts, heart rate, ECG, VO2 max, stress, sleep etc – and then ones that you'd find on a smartwatch – like Google Wallet, Maps and YouTube Music.

The Charge 6 is a superb little health and fitness tracker, with advanced health metrics, over 40 workouts and built-in GPS. It also has Google apps, including Maps, YouTube Music and Google Wallet. Save 22% now at Amazon.

It also keeps track of plenty of wellness data too, such as sleep and stress, and it has a 5ATM water rating. Plus, texts and calls also come straight through to your wrist – you can pick up the latter, but can't respond to texts.

With this deal you also get access to six months of Fitbit Premium, which gives you access to an even deeper analysis of your health metrics, as well as access to trainer-led workouts and mindfulness sessions.

Amazon has listed it as a ‘limited time deal’, so if you’ve been on the hunt for a budget fitness tracker (with some of the features of a smartwatch), I wouldn’t sit on this one for too long – grab it while you can!
