Amazon drops the price of the Fitbit Aria 2 smart scale to a new low

The arrival of a new year means many things. The struggle to write the correct date, having to buy a new calendar, and most importantly, fresh New Year’s resolutions. Folks around the world have made promises to themselves to make 2019 the year of healthier choices. Of course, making promises to yourself doesn’t always bring you the results you were hoping for. Sometimes you just need a little help to keep you going.

Amazon is dropping the price of the Fitbit Aria 2 smart scale, among other Fitbit activity trackers, just in time to aid you in your resoluteness. With a discount of $35, this is the lowest price we’ve seen so far for the Fitbit smart scale. We’ve also found a few other deals on smart scales, however, just in case you aren’t willing to pay that Fitbit price.

the lowest price we’ve seen so far — $35 off

Though Fitbit has put the majority of its focus into activity trackers and fitness smartwatches, smart scales offer a deeper dive into personal fitness. The Aria 2, like a lot of scales these days, measures weight, body fat percentage, lean mass, and BMI. With WiFi capabilities, it will automatically sync stats to your Fitbit dashboard and provide easy-to-read graphs to help you track your progress. The smart scale can recognize up to eight different users at a time, so other people can use it without messing up your stats.

Normally priced at $130, you can pick up the Fitbit Aria 2 for just $95 on Amazon with a clippable coupon. If you already have a Fitbit device, this smart scale basically just adds an entirely new element of fitness tracking to your dashboard.

Withings Body+ — $25 off

Much like the Aria, the Withings Body+ smart scale offers weight, body fat percentage, and automatically syncs your data through a WiFi connection. It also allows up to 8 users at a time to ensure that data being collected doesn’t get mixed up between multiple people. This Withings smart scale is able to sync with hundreds of different health apps, including Apple Health, Fitbit, and Google Fit. It can also sync to your Apple Watch for quick and easy monitoring.

Normally priced at $100, the Withings Body+ is on sale for just $75 for a limited time.

Smart Scales under $50

As great as it is to be invested in your fitness, there are many folks who aren’t willing to drop almost $100 on a bathroom scale — even if it is a smart one. Fortunately, Amazon has a wide variety of more affordable scales to choose from that won’t break the bank. Here are some of the best cheap smart scales we could find:

  • Eufy Smart Scale — $40
  • Renpho Bluetooth Body Fat Scale — $30
  • FitIndex Bluetooth Body Fat Scale — $26
  • Etexcity Smart Bluetooth Scale — $25

Amazon slashes price of AirPods Pro before Prime Day 2020
airpods pro staples deal cyber monday 2020 hot

As October 13 and 14 rapidly approach, the early Prime Day deals just keep rolling in. Among the many Prime Day AirPods deals, Amazon has significantly discounted the Apple AirPods Pro by $30. The usual $249 price tag now reads $219 in honor of Amazon's annual markdown event. The Apple AirPods Pro are largely considered one of the best -- if not the best -- wireless earbuds on the market, so this is one deal that you won't want to let slip away. But remember: This is an early Prime Day deal, which means that it's highly unlikely for Amazon to make these headphones available for any cheaper than they are now. You'll definitely want to pull the "checkout" trigger before it's too late.

Although considered more high-tech than the original AirPods model -- they are advertised as "pro" after all -- the Apple AirPods Pro are still remarkably portable and user-friendly. The wireless charging case can hold over 24 hours of listening time at full battery, so you never have to worry about them losing steam on a busy day. Plus, the case's sleek, lightweight, and durable design make the earbuds easy to slip into bags and pockets without causing too much concern over any possible damage.

Amazon discounts latest iPad 10.2 in new early Prime Day deal
iPad 10.2-inch hero

Apple's eighth-generation iPad with a 10.2-inch Retina display is already part of early Prime Day deals, less than a month after its release. The popularity of tablets has grown over the years, so there will surely be many people looking for good iPad deals once Prime Day starts on October 13. You don't have to wait to start taking advantage of Prime Day iPad deals though, as the latest iPad is already on sale for $299, for a $30 discount from its original price of $329.

The latest-generation iPad features a striking 10.2-inch Retina display with crisp colors and superb clarity, which is perfect for watching videos and browsing images. Apple promises 10 hours of battery life, but under light to moderate use, the tablet may last several days on a single charge.
The latest iPad, however, is not yet updated to the all-screen design that debuted with the first-generation iPad Pro and expanded to the fourth-generation iPad Air. That is not entirely a bad thing though, as Apple has perfected the structure of the tablet, while also keeping the Touch ID fingerprint sensor as a security option.
The eighth-generation iPad keeps its predecessor's 8MP rear camera and 1.2MP selfie camera, which are serviceable but will not produce high-quality photos. Both versions are also capable of running iPadOS14, which introduces redesigned widgets, better search features, and improvements to many of Apple's apps.
The major selling point of the eighth-generation iPad, however, is the upgrade to Apple's A12 Bionic processor, which will allow you to take advantage of the tablet's multitasking features as it enables better performance while multiple apps are open. While older iPads are prone to slowdowns, the new iPad breezes through the tasks without a hitch to ensure that you get your tasks done as quickly as possible.
The eighth-generation iPad may be considered an incremental upgrade to its predecessor, but the faster processor makes it a much more valuable tool for work, studies, and even leisure. The tablet already offers so much value at its original price of $329, but an early Prime Day deal slashes $30 off to bring it down to $299. For a device that only launched in September, the discount only adds to the many reasons why you should take advantage of the offer.
