Amazon’s latest batch of Cyber Monday deals includes cool savings on Moto Z, Garmin and Fitbit wearables

After previewing 35 full days of mad Black Friday shopping, Amazon kicked off the “Turkey 5” deal bonanza with a sweet discount on a high-end VR bundle, quickly spreading the love to smartphone and wearable enthusiasts, then offering a sneak peek at “more than 75,000” marked-down products during the week of Cyber Monday.

Confused much? It’s probably best to live in the moment, and don’t hesitate to pull the trigger on an Amazon.com bargain whenever you can get it, not thinking about what might or might not be around the corner.

Especially today, when an unlocked modular Moto Z phone, complete with 64GB internal storage and a US warranty, costs $499.99 instead of $699.99. Outside of Verizon-locked and select Moto Mod bundle promotions, this is most definitely the 5.5-incher’s lowest price yet, unlikely to go any lower in the near future.

The same pretty much goes for a number of intelligent Garmin and Fitbit wearable devices, including the $45 Vivofit 2 ($25 off), $160 Forerunner 225 (30 percent or so off), $60 Flex 2, $77 Charge HR, $85 Alta, and $128 Blaze. Then there’s the 16GB Moto G4 Plus (non-Prime-exclusive), available for $200 after a limited-time $50 trim, $179 Asus ZenFone 3 Laser (20 bucks off), and of course, a bunch of lightning deals coming “as often as every five minutes” all week long.

Amazon offers great savings on select Fitbit, Garmin, Withings and Samsung wearables

While so many major US retailers have been kind enough to share, preview and detail their full Black Friday deal collections well in advance of the year’s biggest shopping days, Amazon kept almost everything a secret until its discount avalanche began earlier today.

Hopefully, you saved a couple of hundreds of dollars in the bank after stocking up on VR gear and home entertainment products, because that Sony Xperia XZ goes perfectly with a $200 black leather Huawei Watch. Or a $149 Samsung Gear Fit 2, marked down from $180.

For an extremely limited time, you can also buy some stylish Withings smart trackers on the cheap, including a $70 Activité Pop and $90 Activité Steel. Or you can settle for an arguably uglier Withings Go, available at just $40 after a massive $40 rebate.

But if it’s a low-cost wearable from an early market leader you prefer, there are Fitbits on sale setting you back as little as $69 (the Flex 2), and as “much” as $150 (Blaze). $99 gets you the Fitbit Alta (previously $130), while the Charge 2 goes for $129 instead of $150.

Last but not least, check out the $40 Garmin Vivofit, $70 Vivosmart HR, and $99 and up Vivomove, sold at $10 to $80 discounts. ‘Tis the season to procure ultra-affordable wearable gear!

Rehashed $100 Fitbit Flex 2 and $150 Charge 2 activity trackers go up for pre-order

While Fitbit certainly knocked one out of the park when taking the wraps off its first “smart fitness watch”, the Blaze, which helped the global wearable king retain its crown and beat analyst estimates for both sales numbers and profits, the older, more basic Flex and Charge continued to contribute to the company’s stellar financials.Released way back in May 2013 and October 2014, the two entry-level activity ...
