The wearable offers many of the same health and fitness tracking features as its predecessor, the Venu 3S, including abnormal heart rate alerts, detailed sleep insights, audio-guided meditation sessions, and a wheelchair mode. It introduces new wellness features, though, including the ability to track caffeine and alcohol intake, as well as Garmin Coach, so you can tailor workouts based on your fitness history, sleep quality, and recovery.

REI, Amazon, and Best Buy are also selling the Garmin Lily 2 Active for $249.99 ($50 off), which is its lowest price to date. The stylish smartwatch is a great budget-friendly Garmin, especially for people with smaller wrists. Like the standard Lily 2, it offers basic fitness tracking, notifications, and up to five days of battery life; however, the so-called “Active” model adds a physical button, built-in GPS, and support for more sports tracking.

If you want more accurate heart rate tracking than most smartwatches offer, Polar’s H10 is on sale at REI and Amazon for $94.49 ($10 off), which is one of its better prices in recent months. Unlike wrist-based trackers, the chest strap records your heart rate directly from your chest for more precise readings during workouts. The lightweight sensor also pairs with a wide range of fitness apps, smartwatches, gym equipment, and other devices via Bluetooth, and it’s water-resistant enough for swimming.

Unlike its predecessor, though, it features a color touchscreen, which makes it’s much easier to scroll through menus and bang out messages.
