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.

For the holiday season, it's a great idea to take advantage of the available phone deals for an upgrade. If you're an Android fan, you should check out this offer from Best Buy for the Google Pixel 9, which was just launched a few months ago. The smartphone's 128GB model is on sale with a $150 discount that brings its price down to a more affordable $649 from $799. You're going to want to hurry with your purchase if you're interested though, as we're not sure how much time is remaining before this bargain gets taken down.

Why you should buy the Google Pixel 9
While the spotlight is shining mostly on its larger and more advanced siblings -- the Google Pixel 9 Pro and the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL -- the Google Pixel 9 still makes our list of the best Android phones as the best small Android phone. With a rating of 4.5 out of 5 stars, we described it as "one of the best Pixel phones Google has ever made" in our review. It's designed to harness the capabilities of Gemini AI, but even if you don't use the technology regularly, the Google Pixel 9 is still a great smartphone.
