Walmart is looking to put a big smile on the faces of many cash-strapped parents with an outstanding new deal on the kid-friendly Fitbit Ace 3 wearable device.
Okay, the precise price of the Ace 3 at Walmart right now technically starts at $49.80, which is obviously even better, representing a very solid discount of around 30 bucks from a $79.95 MSRP. The slightly less eye-catching and playful black and blue color options are still significantly costlier, in case you're wondering, and the same goes for all three variants at other retailers like Best Buy and Amazon.
Until that happens, this device remains perfectly adequate to satisfy the elementary needs of its intended target audience with step counting, reminders to move, gentle alarms, fun little animated clock faces, top-notch water resistance , and perhaps most importantly and most impressively, up to 8 days of battery life on a single charge.
The competition is... pretty limited , with Apple not yet ready to commit to this particular market segment in any way and Garmin's Vivofit Jr. 3 very rarely available at similarly low prices.
