This Fitbit has 'wowed' thousands of Amazon shoppers — and it's $60 off for Prime Day

A brand new fitness watch can easily set you back hundreds of dollars; however, if you're keeping tabs on this year's Prime Day deals, you can find surprisingly great activity trackers for less than you would expect.

Take, for instance, the best-selling Fitbit Charge 5. With 2,500 five-star reviews in its corner, Amazon Canada shoppers say this fitness watch is "beautifully designed" and "comfortable," and right now, it's on sale for 30 per cent off.

The details

If you're looking to take your health and wellness to the next level in 2023, Amazon reviewers suggest checking out the Fitbit Charge 5 Advanced Fitness & Health Tracker.

Unlike other fitness trackers, the Fitbit Charge 5+ Premium connects the dots between your activity, sleep and stress, so you're able to make educated decisions about your health.

Together with a Fitbit Premium membership, the watch provides you with a Daily Readiness Score based on your activity, sleep and heart rate and lets you know if you're ready to exercise or if you should instead focus on recovery.

Your score comes with personalized activity recommendations, ranging from light yoga to high-intensity workouts, plus access to hundreds of guided exercises, mindfulness sessions and a built-in GPS.

Additionally, the watch has all of the features you know and love about the Fitbit brand, including heart rate variability, skin temperature variation and more.

What people are saying

The Charge 5 comes backed by more than 4,100 reviews and an average rating of 4.3 stars.

This is "the tracker you want," writes one shopper. I "purchased [it] mainly for the sleep tracking," and thus far, it's "wowed me." I have friends with other health trackers and they "don't seem to have the accuracy" of the Fitbit.

It's "beautifully designed [and] comfortable," says another reviewer. Plus, with its built-in GPS and calorie tracker, it's "incentivizing me to go" outside and discover new trails.

The Charge 5 is a "sweet step up from previous models," writes a third reviewer. It "helps me track the most important stuff," including stress, calories, sleep, heart rate and more. If "you're on the fence, go for it!"

However, while the watch has earned an average rating of four stars or higher for battery life, sleep tracking and accuracy, some users complain the text on the screen is too small.

The "font sizes are way too small" for me to "read the screen easily," writes one shopper. It was "clearly designed" by "young people for young people."

The verdict

A no.1 best-seller among sleep and health trackers, the Fitbit Charge 5 is a top choice for shoppers looking to take control of their health and fitness. However, despite overwhelmingly positive reviews, some users find the text on the screen too small, something to keep in mind before heading to checkout.
