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.

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.

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.

Amazon slashes prices of Echo and Fire TV devices for Prime Day
Prime Day Amazon Echo Deals

Prime Day is here. Okay, not quite. We still have a few hours to go until the event itself kicks off, but that hasn't stopped Amazon from discounting everything from Echo Dots and Fire TVs to Fire tablets to their lowest-ever prices. I guess when you run the show you can do as you please. Anyhow, the retailer has confirmed that Amazon device sales are in fact Prime Day deals -- as indicated by the small badge on the product pages -- and has reassured us that the pricing will remain the same through the end of the shopping bonanza on October 14.

The best single best deal? The retailer has the Amazon Echo Dot for just $19. This is the cheapest it has ever offered the puck-sized smart speaker, down $3 from the $22 we saw on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Of course, that's not the only offer to write home about. It's also offering the souped-up Amazon Echo Studio for $150, down $50 from the usual $200, and has the top-rated Fire HD 10 tablet for just $80. That's $70 under sticker. Oh, and did we mention the Fire TV Recast (500GB) is on sale for just $130. Wait for it... That's a savings of $100. Wowzers.
