Google's new Fitbit Air fitness tracker, praised for its lightweight design, 7-day battery and subscription-free pricing, carries only a water-resistant rating rather than being fully waterproof. It can withstand sweat and swimming sessions but is not built to be indestructible against water exposure.
Google posted teaser images on Instagram and X confirming the name of its upcoming 'Fitbit Edge' fitness tracker, with a reveal date set for October 12. The device had previously leaked via marketing materials and reports from Android Headlines and Dealabs, which detailed its design, battery life, and possible European pricing around €179.
Amazon's Prime Day sale includes discounts on wearables such as the Apple Watch Series 12 (about $50 off), the Google Fitbit Charge 6 (down to $90) and Fitbit Inspire 3 (down to $70), plus a $65 discount on the latest Google Pixel Watch. WIRED says it is updating its roundup of deals from brands including Garmin, Amazfit and Samsung as the sale continues.
Leaked information reveals that the Fitbit Edge now includes a screen and a range of sensors comparable to those in the company's previous screenless models. This marks a significant update to Fitbit's wearable lineup.
