It’s never too early for children to start minding their health, and with the Fitbit Ace LTE, they’ll be able to do so in a fun and interactive way. If you want your kid to wear this smartwatch, you should take advantage of Best Buy’s $30 discount for it, which slashes its price to $200 from its sticker price of $230. The savings may not look like much, but you wouldn’t want to miss it, as the wearable device was just released a couple of months ago, and new models rarely appear in smartwatch deals. Once the bargain is gone, we’re not sure when you’ll get another chance at it.

Why you should buy the Fitbit Ace LTE smartwatch

Fitness trackers usually set a goal of steps taken or calories burned, and they monitor this data to let you know if you’ve achieved it for the day. The kid-centric Fitbit Ace LTE, however, does things differently. An activity ring on its home screen — which it calls a noodle — records your child’s movement and plays a fun animation when it is completed for the day. Children achieve this goal through video games on the smartwatch that require physical activity, such as a racing game where they move their hands to steer their vehicle, and whenever they do, they can unlock tickets to buy clothes for their customizable avatar known as an Eejie, or get items for its virtual home.

The Fitbit Ace LTE is more than just a fitness-focused smartwatch though. For parents, they will be able to check their child’s real-time location, send and receive text messages and calls, and track their kid’s movement activity through the Fitbit Ace companion app. The wearable device is durable with Gorilla Glass 3 protecting its OLED display, and it offers a battery life of more than 16 hours from a full charge.

Fitbit deals don’t only cater to athletes, as children can now also benefit from the fitness-tracking smartwatches. The Fitbit Ace LTE, which originally sells for $230, is down to only $200 following a $30 discount from Best Buy. We don’t think this offer will last long because the wearable device was just rolled out in June, so you better hurry with your purchase if you want to enjoy savings when getting the Fitbit Ace LTE for your kid.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, which we gave a rating of 4 stars out of 5 stars in our review, is featured in our list of the best phones as the best foldable phone. We described it as "the best, most manageable big-screen folding phone you can currently buy," as its weight and dimensions have been refined for one of the best things about the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 -- it's pocket-friendly.

Why you should buy the Google Pixel 7 Pro
The Google Pixel 9 Pro holds the spot as the best Android phone runner-up in our list of the best Android phones, but its 2022 version, the Google Pixel 7 Pro, remains a worthwhile purchase to this day. The Google Tensor G2 chip that powers the device delivers fast and efficient performance that's capable of challenging the speed of the current generation of smartphones, and its 6.7-inch OLED touchscreen with 3120 x 1440 resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, and peak brightness up to 1,500 nits is still one of the most gorgeous displays on a mobile device.

Why you should buy the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6
The best phone world is ever changing, with flip and foldable phones becoming a major player now after a long time of all phones being the candy bar style. When it comes to the best flip phones, Samsung rules the roost. Interestingly, while we loved the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 with its “top-notch hardware” and “very good inner display” as well as great performance, it’s worth noting that it’s expensive for what it is and its cover screen isn’t great. Despite that though, we’d recommend it.
