If you know someone who is ingrained in the Apple ecosystem of devices and has considered getting a fitness tracker, the Apple Watch SE is the perfect gift for them. Because it is an Apple Watch, it seamlessly integrates into the rest of the Apple device ecosystem and is intuitive to use since WatchOS mirrors what the iOS found in iPhones. 

Despite being the most budget-friendly model, it boasts many of the same health and safety features as the more advanced Apple Watch models, including fitness tracking, heart-rate monitoring, sleep insights, Crash Detection, water resistance, and a good battery.

Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy have the latest Fitbit, the Charge 6, on sale for a $60 discount. ZDNET's best Fitbit overall incorporates all of Google's latest and greatest features within a Fitbit tracker, such as Google Maps, Google Wallet, Gmail, Google Calendar, YouTube Music controls, and more. 

Compared to older models, the Charge 6 has a built-in GPS, is made of 100% recycled aluminum, and includes an improved heart rate sensor. When ZDNET's wearables expert, Matthew Miller, tested the device, he found the Fitbit Charge 6 is best for people who want to "capture key health and wellness data in a comfortable form factor while minimizing the distractions of third-party apps and constant notifications."

If you are looking for a stylish wearable, the Fitbit Luxe is an affordable and elegant fitness tracker, thanks to its suite of elegant bracelet options.

The Fitbit Sense 2 tracker comes with a physical button on the left side and utilizes a touch screen to control the device. While you can't place phone calls directly from the smartwatch, the Fitbit Sense 2 supports answering incoming calls, and with an Android phone, you can reply to texts and notifications. With the support of Fitbit Premium service, you can extend the capabilities of your smartwatch to help you improve your health. 

  • Current price: $450
  • Original price: $529

Apple's recent launch of the Apple Watch Ultra 2 and the Apple Watch Series 9 means its predecessor, the Apple Watch Series 8, is now on sale. For $79 less, you can get an Apple Watch with "80% of the functions of an Apple Watch Ultra, especially in the core health features," says ZDNET's editor-in-chief Jason Hiner.

  • Current price: $269-$449
  • Original price: $299-$549

The Oura Ring is a great fitness tracker alternative for someone who would prefer a minimal and stylish alternative. Unlike the rest of the wearables on this list, the Oura Ring sits on your finger instead of on your wrist, making it a more discreet option. Despite its small and lightweight form factor, it packs incredible insights, landing it a place as ZDNET's pick for best smart ring and best fitness ring

Oura and Best Buy are offering hefty discounts on the smart rings, starting at $30 off for black and silver rings and up to $100 off rose gold rings. 

  • Current price: $351
  • Original price: $450

You can find this top-of-the-line smartwatch at an 18% discount. The Galaxy Watch 5 Pro captures heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and more. With Samsung Health, you can also track workouts, menstrual cycles, and even skin temperature to predict when you might get sick. 

When is Cyber Monday 2023?

Cyber Monday 2023 falls on Monday, Nov. 27 this year -- the Monday after Thanksgiving and Black Friday in the US. It's a great time to find deals across different categories, including TVs, laptops, tablets, Apple products, and more.

How did we choose these Cyber Monday deals?

ZDNET only writes about deals we want to buy -- devices and products we desire, need, or would recommend. Our experts looked for deals that were at least 20% off (or are hardly ever on sale), using established price comparison tools and trackers to determine whether the deal is actually on sale and how frequently it drops. 

We also looked over customer reviews to find out what matters to real people who already own and use the deals we're recommending. Our recommendations may also be based on our own testing -- in addition to extensive research and comparison shopping. The goal is to deliver the most accurate advice to help you shop smarter. 

What is the best Fitbit and fitness tracker?

ZDNET's pick for the best Fitbit overall is the Fitbit Charge 6 due to its GPS connectivity, deep Google integration, and outstanding heart rate insights. This model is currently on sale for Black Friday for $100. 

Other Fitbit models, such as the Fitbit Sense 2, Fitbit Inspire HR, and Fitbit Luxe, also make excellent options. With Fitbit's Premium subscription, you can upgrade these older models to provide some of the most advanced insights to date.
