Smart wearables are becoming trendy these days, especially with fashion-forward brands like Michael Kors and Fossil joining the market. Right now, Amazon is running a hefty 35%

discount on the Fossil Men’s Gen 4 Explorist HR Smartwatch,

dropping its price to just $179. This deal applies to the blue, silver, rose gold, and brown color options. Whether you’re looking for a nice gift for your husband, dad, or boyfriend, or just want to up your style, you better not miss out on this sale.

At first glance, the Explorist HR looks like a classic mechanical watch. It flaunts an understated, masculine aesthetic that pairs well with a casual or formal look.

Just like most smartwatches, connecting it to your phone via Bluetooth will enable notifications. From text messages and calls to app and weather alerts, the watch will notify you right away through a gentle buzz. You can use it to control your music, set custom goals and alarms, and manage your calendar. There’s also a bunch of downloadable third-party apps that you can use with it. The unit is compatible with both Android and iOS devices — particularly Android OS 4.4 and up and iOS 9.3 and up — although performance can be different for both.

The Explorist HR also works as a basic fitness tracker. It uses an untethered GPS to track your distance and can play your stored music, which is perfect if you want to leave your phone behind for a run. It can also measure heart rate automatically during your workout, count steps taken, and show your fitness goal progress. You’ll also love its ability to track activities through Google Fit, allowing you to set daily goals and record workout sessions easily.

It may not have the bells and whistles of the pricier models from Apple or Fitbit, but the Fossil Men’s Gen 4 Explorist HR Smartwatch is a solid bet if you’re looking for a reasonably priced and stylish smartwatch. Order the blue, silver, rose gold, or brown variant on Amazon today at a

discounted price of $179.

Dyson V15 Detect

Best Buy's 48-hour flash sale includes price cuts for various models of Dyson cordless vacuums, so if you've had an eye on these cleaning devices for a while, now's your chance to get one for much cheaper than usual. There are a lot of options to choose from though, so we've gathered our favorite Dyson deals to help you with your decision.

Dyson V7 Advanced Origin -- $300, was $400

The Dyson V7 Advanced Origin is one of the brand's more affordable cordless vacuums, but it still has what it takes to keep your whole home clean with its powerful suction and whole-machine filtration that captures pet allergens and fine dust while expelling clean air. The cordless vacuum also features a detangling Motorbar cleaner head, which deep cleans carpets and hard floors while clearing pet hair from the brush bar using hair removal vanes. It quickly switches to a handheld vacuum with one click, and it can run for up to 40 minutes on a single charge.

If you've been waiting for a discount on the GoPro Hero 11 Black, check this out -- the action camera is down to $400 from Best Buy, for savings of $100 on its original price of $500. GoPro is still the most trusted name in the action camera space, so we expect this offer to attract a lot of attention and possibly sell out quickly. If you want to get the device for cheaper than usual, you're going to have to proceed with the purchase as soon as you can.

Why you should buy the GoPro Hero 11 Black
The GoPro Hero 11 Black looks very similar to the GoPro Hero 10 Black, which is a pro-consumer move because that means you can keep using accessories from the older model when you upgrade. All of the improvements are under the hood though, including a larger sensor that will let you shoot horizontal and vertical footage at the same time without having to choose between the two formats. The GoPro Hero 11 Black can shoot 5.3K video at up to 60 frames per second, 4K at up to 120 frames per second, and 2.7K at up to 240 frames per second for super slow-motion.
