Fitbit’s Sense 2 fitness-tracking smartwatch just hit a new 2024 low

If you’ve been keen on getting yourself, or a loved one, a great tracker to keep on top of your fitness regime, you’re in luck. Amazon has slashed the price of the Fitbit Sense 2 to just AU$309, which is only AU$10 more than its lowest-ever price that we saw late last year.

This offer is also available in New Zealand for the discounted price of NZ$323.05 and free shipping.

In our Fitbit Sense 2 review, we said that it’s “an enjoyable-to-use casual health and fitness tracker that demands less upkeep than an Apple Watch”. It might not be as ‘smart’ to fit the ‘smartwatch’ moniker, but it’s got a lot of fitness prowess that makes it worthwhile.

It can help improve sleep habits, control stress and keep you on track of your health goals. While it’s a little hard to recommend at full price, this 31% discount is definitely worth considering. Buying a new Fitbit Sense 2 also gets you a free 6-month subscription to Fitbit Premium so you can dive deeper into some important health metrics.

Unlike the Apple Watch, the Fitbit Sense 2 gets you up to 6 days of battery life on a single charge, providing you with constant stress management, including mindfulness content and a daily score to help you keep things under control. You also get a comprehensive Sleep Profile if you want to improve your nightly rest.

There are over 40 exercise modes to choose from, plus built-in GPS to track outdoor activities, and the map is quite accurate too. As with all other Fitbit trackers, there’s heart rate monitoring, step counts, plus a SpO2 sensor to monitor blood oxygen levels. 

There’s also the choice of Alexa and Google Assistant on board, although you can only set one of them up. You can get a lot of notifications on your wrist, but the watch won’t allow you to respond to most of them on-screen.  Despite that shortcoming, we think it’s a worthy upgrade at this discounted price.
