Best Garmin Black Friday deals 2021 – live
Black Friday is here – rejoice! If you’ve been eying up a new Garmin sports watch all year, now is the perfect time to grab a bargain.
Garmin hasn’t added much to its line up in 2021, and it’s been pretty quiet post pandemic.
In the past year we’ve seen a new Garmin Venu 2 smartwatch, Forerunner 55 and Garmin Enduro. But its Fenix, Vivoactive and most of its Forerunner selection haven’t changed. And that makes a fertile breeding ground for hot deals.
Forerunner 245 Music – $199 (save $100)
The Forerunner 245 has been out since 2019, but it’s still Garmin’s staple running watch.
Offering significantly more than just the basics, it matches 24 hours of full GPS tracking with buckets of running recovery metrics and body analysis.
This version doesn’t have the ability to store music on board, but if you can live without that – and we imagine most people can – this is a top price for Garmin’s excellent running watch.
Forerunner 245 Music – $249 (save $100)
As above, but the 245 Music is also on offer at $100 off. This edition enables you to store music, including offline Spotify playlists. You can hook a pair of Bluetooth headphones up to the watch and listen without your phone, while tracking workouts as normal.
Vivoactive 4S – $199 (save $100)
The 40mm Vivoactive 4S is the smaller case designed for women – and those with smaller wrists. And the rose golf version has a healthy discount here, and is technically $100 off.
It features a host of sport profiles, fitness and wellness metrics such as Body Battery – and it’s an excellent and versatile sports watch. The metrics tracked are on the basic side, but it does a fabulous impression of a smartwatch, with good notifications, and contactless payments, too.
Garmin Fenix 6 deals
Fenix 6 – Fenix 6S – Fenix 6X
Fenix 6 Pro – $449 (save $200)
The Fenix 6 Pro offers music storage and payments over the standard Garmin Fenix – and is available at an all time low price.
It’s the best of the Garmin range with top notch fitness analysis, 36 hours GPS battery life in standard mode (with more in power saving), and 100m water resistance.
Fenix 6S – $349 (save $200)
The Fenix 6S brings all the brilliant Fenix 6 features into a 42mm package – that’s much more unisex and manageable than the 47mm Fenix 6.
You still get the same focus on recovery, VO2 Max and Training Load data, along with an insane list of outdoor sport profiles. However, the pay-off of the smaller case is that battery life is shorter than the standard Fenix – but still an impressive 25 hours full GPS tracking.
Fenix 6S Pro – $499 (save $150)
As above, the Fenix 6S Pro offers music storage (including Spotify), premium mapping and PacePro.
Fenix 6X Pro – $499 (save $200)
The larger Fenix 6X pushes the case size to an enormous 51mm – for the biggest wrists only. The pay-off is an extra boost in battery life, with 60 hours GPS tracking in standard mode, rising to 120 in power saving.
Venu Sq – $179 (save $70)
Garmin released a smaller, cheaper version of its Venu smartwatch – with reduced features, sports tracking modes and a basic design.
However, it still serves runners and fitness fans with sports tracking profiles, and features like Body Battery, SpO2 and stress tracking.
