What better way to stay in shape than to have a fitness tracker to keep you in check. Fitbit has certainly made a name for itself when it comes to smartwatches particularly geared for fitness and the Versa makes for a sterling addition to its lineup. If you’re hesitant to get it at its standard list price of $200, then you might want to check out Amazon’s deal that gives you the

Fitbit Versa Smartwatch

for 15% less. Cash in $170 for a cool wearable and walk away with $30 in savings.

Fitbit claims “there’s a Versa for everyone” as it comes in a variety of styles and editions like the Versa Lite to match every personality and price point. Moreover, with the option to interchange bands, the possibilities in terms of design could be endless. Similar to the Apple Watch, the Versa sports a squarish anodized aluminum watch body attached to silicone straps that make for a comfortable and breathable fit even when worn to sleep.

It wouldn’t be one of the best fitness trackers without its impeccable activity tracking. You can count on the Versa to give you the key metrics specific to more than 15 exercise modes as well as your sleep stages. Since it is water-resistant to depths up to 50 meters, you should be able to take it with you to the pool but not to the sauna or hot tub. It is also well equipped with a heart rate monitor to determine your cardio fitness level, built-in GPS to account for pace and direction, plus, Female Health to record your period cycle.

The Versa runs with Fitbit’s very own operating system (Fitbit OS) to facilitate a fluid interface. With Bluetooth 4.0, you’ll instantly have access to typical smartphone notifications such as calls, texts, emails, app alerts, and whatnot. Though Fitbit is compatible with more than 200 devices be it iOS, Android, or Windows, Android users just get to have a wee bit more advantage with the ability to send quick replies.

Two additional features you won’t find in the Versa Lite, is the Versa’s capability to store and play more than 300 songs, as well as having onscreen workouts to coach you through every move, track swim laps, and floors climbed. The Versa’s Special Edition just ups the ante with the provision of Fitbit Pay. A feature you’ll find true to all editions however is its battery life that can last about four or more days depending on use. Get the

for you while supplies last and definitely while it’s on sale for $170 on Amazon.

ECOVACS top deal gets you $400 off a robot vacuum and all-in-one docking station
ECOVACS DEEBOT T30S robot vacuum and mop with AIO docking station

If you want to get your hands on a robot vacuum, window cleaning robot, or other smart home gear, you should definitely take a look at ECOVACS' entire Black Friday deals lineup. For this feature, we're going to highlight a single, specific deal that we're pretty excited about. Okay, maybe it's just me excited, but you get the point. The DEEBOT T30S robot vacuum and mop combo is the best-selling Omni robot in the country and for good reason. One of its best inclusions is the all-in-one dock that it comes with. This thing washes the mop with hot water, self-refills the tank, empties the dustbin, and much more.

What does that mean for you? Less time spent dealing with the vacuum and its maintenance. You can remain hands-off for weeks at a time, while the vacuum operates out of its dock and cleans the floors. Of course, you're here because of the Black Friday discounts and I don't blame you. Let's discuss.

Should you buy the WH-1000XM5 or WF-1000XM5 deal for Black Friday?
A WF-1000XM5 case nestled into a WH-1000XM5's ear cup.

Black Friday is here, more or less, with early Black Friday deals being highly abundant at this time. One pair of such deals is for Sony's quite legendary XM5 line, with both the headphones and earbuds being on sale. In fact, a Best Buy early Black Friday deal got me to buy the earbuds and complete my collection.

As a self-described "audiophobe" (I crave silence the way others crave deep bass beats), I've been tempted by Sony's WF-1000XM5 after experiencing the peace and quiet of the WH-1000XM5 headphones. And at their current price of $230, which is $70 down from the usual $300, they were an easy pickup for me. But, with the WH-1000XM5 — the headphones that consistently sit at the top or our best headphones list — down to $300 from a usual price of $400, are the WF-1000XM5 really the best deal for you to pick up at the moment? As someone who owns them both, I'm going to give you the case for picking out each pair.
