2yqhuhsexyzusaqsv7siss 1

The Cyber Monday Garmin sales are basically here already, because they’re exactly the same as the Black Friday deals which occurred a few days ago – and you can find all the top ones below.

We’re seeing big savings on the Garmin Fenix 6 range in particular, but there are discounts across a wide variety of Garmin wearables, with more possibly still to come.

That said, some years we don’t see much in the way of new offers on Cyber Monday itself, with retailers instead continuing their Black Friday deals, so if you see something tempting you might as well buy it now, as tomorrow’s deals may not be any better.

Below we’ve highlighted all the best deals so far, and we’ll be updating this article if and when new deals arrive, so keep it bookmarked if you don’t spot anything you want yet.

And now that price has become even more affordable, with this discount taking 25% off the Granite Blue version. It lacks a color screen, but that’s one of our only complaints about this excellent wearable.

Garmin Vivofit Jr 3: $79.99 $59.99 at Amazon
Save $20 – The Garmin Vivofit Jr 3 is a fitness tracker built for kids. It tracks steps and sleep and is packed full of engaging activities.

In our review we praised the bright screen and great companion app, but noted that there’s no onboard GPS or contactless payment support, so bear that in mind.

Garmin Approach S10: $149.99 $119.99 at Amazon
Save $30 – The Garmin Approach S10 puts over 41,0000 golf course on your wrist, including yardages, hazards and dog legs, and the ability to keep score from the watch.

Cyber Monday Garmin sales (UK)

Garmin Instinct: £269.99 £215 at Amazon
Save £154 – The Garmin Instinct is available for 20% less than usual in this deal, bringing this already affordable wearable down to an impulse purchase price. With a comfortable design and solid sports tracking performance there’s a lot to like here, though it lacks full mapping features.

Garmin Fenix 6S: £529.99 £279 at Amazon
Save £250.99 – The Garmin Fenix 6S is a compact version of the flagship Fenix 6 – so in other words this is one of the best multisport watches on the planet. Usually it has a price to match, but this deal knocks 47% off the standard price of the Fenix 6S in silver with a black band, meaning you can get a high-end sports watch for mid-range money.

Garmin Fenix 6 Pro: £599.99 £379 at Amazon
Save £220.99 – The Garmin Fenix 6 Pro is a supercharged multisport watch that’s way more than most people need, but with 37% off this black model it’s at a price that many will be able to afford. It can track just about any activity you can do from running and cycling to skiing and beyond, and with more precision than many devices. This is a big saving so it’s worth snapping up if you think you’ll make good use of it.

Garmin Vivoactive 4: £279.99 £179.99 at Argos
Save £100 – The Garmin Vivoactive 4 is a mid-range multisport watch that offers many of the same tools as Garmin’s top-end models, and allows for the tracking of over 20 different activities, from jogging to golf. It’s a great smartwatch for anyone with at least a passing interest in fitness then, and right now you can get the black/gunmetal model at a triple-figure discount, so it’s a great time to buy.

Garmin Vivofit Jr 3: £79.99 £49 at Amazon
Save £30.99 – The Garmin Vivofit Jr 3 is down to just £49 for Black Friday in this exciting Black Panther design, making for a massive 39% discount. With its durable build and at such a low price it’s the perfect activity tracker for kids. But it goes beyond just tracking, with quizzes, games and more also included.

Garmin Vivomove 3: £199.99 £119 at Amazon
Save £70.99 – The Vivomove 3 is reduced by 35% currently if you opt for a model with a black silicone strap and a slate body. Sleeker than most Garmins, this has both physical analogue hands and a digital display, and it’s ideal for basic health and fitness tracking. If you want precise and in-depth exercise tracking you should look elsewhere, but the Vivomove 3 is a great entry-level choice.

Garmin Forerunner 45 (42mm): £159.99 £99 at Amazon
Save £50.99 – The Garmin Forerunner 45 is pretty much the gold standard in affordable running watches, offering a competitive number of features in a lightweight package and at an affordable price. Our 4-star review praised all of these things, but noted that sport profiles are limited and the build is heavy on plastic. Still, with 32% knocked off the price of the Lava Red model in this deal, it’s hard to be too annoyed by that.

Garmin Forerunner 45S: £159.99 £109 at Amazon
Save £50.99 – The Garmin Forerunner 45S in black is down to just £109 right now on Amazon, which is a saving of 32%. That gets you a lightweight smartwatch that has a competitive amount of fitness features for the price – but it’s aimed primarily at runners. The S model is also designed to be compact, so if you want a larger size check out the standard Forerunner 45.

Garmin Venu 2S: £349.99 £235.00 at Amazon
Save £114.99
– An all-time low price on the slightly smaller model of the Garmin Venu 2, the Venu 2S is ideal for discretion – or if you’ve got a smaller wrist! This watch only launched this year, so it’s a great saving this early in its lifespan.

Garmin Forerunner 645 Music GPS: £349.99 £179.99 at Very
Save £170
– The Forerunner 645 Music is almost half price in this incredible deal from Very. It allows you to store 500 songs on your running watch and has a whole host of Garmin features for just under £180, making it a great choice for amateur athletes.

Garmin Forerunner 245: £249.99 £149 at Amazon
Save £100.99
– An older model in the Garmin family, but still a strong option in the smartwatch space, the Forerunner 245 squeezes a lot into a compact and lightweight device. While. not the most detailed in its reporting, it’s a good cover-all option.

Garmin Forerunner 245 GPS: £249 £199 at Currys
Save £50
– Black Friday Garmin deals are happening, and this gives us £50 off one of the best smartwatches from the company. With up to 7 days battery life, GPS connectivity and more, the Forerunner 245 is a top choice if you’re looking for a mid-range running watch.

Garmin Fenix 6 Pro: £599.99 £379 at Very
Save £220.99 – This massive discount knocks more than a third off the price of the premium Garmin Fenix 6 Pro. Even with the discount it’s not cheap, but this is also one of the very best running watches available, and by extension also one of the very best Garmin wearables, and you’re unlikely to find it much cheaper than this for a long time.

Garmin Venu 2: £349.99 £259 at Amazon
Save £84.99 The Garmin Venu 2 is a superb mid-range sports watch that launched in April 2021, and this is a significant discount for such a new wearable. This deal is for the full-size 44mm model, and applies to the Slate colorway – though the Granite Blue model is only slightly more expensive.

Garmin Instinct: £319.99 £189.00 at Amazon
Save £130.99
– The Instinct is a relatively new entry to Garmin’s selection, offering a more affordable alternative to some of the pricier options while retaining the key features needed from an outdoor watch.

Our predictions

Based on what we saw last year we can take a good guess at some of the Garmin deals that we might see on Cyber Monday 2021. They include the following:

Tips for buying a Garmin watch

Garmin makes a wide range of wearables at different prices and for different types of users, so it can be tricky finding the right one.

It can also be tricky finding the best deals, even on sales days like Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but we’ve got some tips to help.

1. Check out our best Garmin guide

It’s worth working out what you want to buy before you even head into the sales, and your first stop for that should be our best Garmin watch guide, where we’ve highlighted all the top options.

Don’t just go for our number one pick though, as something else might suit you better – some Garmin wearables are aimed at serious athletes, while others are more for those just dipping their toes in, and some focus on specific sports too. So it’s worth taking a look at all the best options.

2. Keep an eye out for dodgy deals

Not every deal is a good deal, even if it looks good. A discount of 50% off RRP for example might look great, until you realize that nowhere is selling the device at full price.

So it’s worth checking the prices elsewhere before pressing the buy button, or even using a tool like The Camelizer to see price history for the site you’re on. Or just stick with TechRadar, as we’ll only be highlighting genuine deals here.

3. Watch for big deals on older models

The latest Garmin watches may well get discounted on Cyber Monday, but older models are far more likely to – and are likely to get biggest discounts.

Retailers will be looking to clear their stock to make way for the shiny new hardware, so big savings can often be had. And just because a model is older, it doesn’t mean it’s not still great.

Cyber Monday Garmin FAQ

When will the best Cyber Monday Garmin deals start in 2021?

The very best Cyber Monday Garmin deals are likely to be on Cyber Monday itself – that’s November 29. However, you might see some similarly good deals on Black Friday (November 26) and on the weekend between those two dates.

There will be some discounts ahead of even Black Friday too, but for the most part these probably won’t be quite as good, going by previous years.

Still, if you’re in the market for a new Garmin then it’s worth checking back on this page regularly between now and Cyber Monday, as we’re already seeing major discounts pop up on a few models.

Where will the best Cyber Monday Garmin deals be?

The best place to find Garmin deals on Cyber Monday will be this very page and the wider TechRadar site, as we’ll be scouring the net for all the top options and highlighting them here. But if you want to conduct a search of your own then the following stores would be a good place to start.

Top US retailers
Amazon
: expect loads of Garmin watches at low prices
Best Buy: expect big savings on various Garmins
Walmart: free shipping and discounts on Garmin wearables
Top UK retailers
Amazon: expect loads of the UK’s best Garmin deals
Currys: save on Garmins and get free delivery
John Lewis: save money on various Garmin smartwatches

Should I wait for Cyber Monday Garmin deals?

The big question in the run up to a sale like Cyber Monday is whether it’s worth waiting, or whether you should just buy now.

In the case of Garmin watches, there’s a good chance you’ll find some great deals on select models based on previous years – but there’s no guarantee that the specific model you’re interested in will get a hefty discount. So if you’re set on one particular Garmin, you might not gain anything by waiting.

If you buy one now on the other hand then you gain the ability to start using it sooner, so if you’re desperate to have one then that’s another reason to buy now.

But generally now that we’re getting close to Cyber Monday we’d suggest waiting, as other than getting the wearable later you don’t lose out by waiting, and you might gain a big saving.

That is, unless you see a great deal in early sales, as we’re starting to see on a few models. You’ll find all the best current deals further up in this article, so consider grabbing one of those if any catch your eye.

3 best Garmin watches to look out for

The Garmin Fenix 6 is a powerful, feature-packed multi-sports watch, and is our pick for the best Garmin watch of 2021 (Image credit: Garmin)

1. Garmin Fenix 6

The best Garmin watch overall

Screen size: 1.3-inch diameter | Touchscreen: No | Battery life using GPS: 36 hours | Battery life on standby: 14 days | Onboard storage: 64MB | Bluetooth connection: Yes | Smartwatch capabilities: Yes | Multisport: Loads of them

Can’t be beaten for outdoor trackingAccurate activity trackingVery expensiveNot the most stylish of watches

The Garmin Fenix 6 is for our money the best Garmin watch. It’s not cheap, but it could become a lot more palatable on Cyber Monday, with prices likely to plummet for the sale.

Really it’s the whole Fenix 6 range that we rate at the top – they’re all unsurpassed multi-sport smartwatches with comprehensive activity tracking, great battery life and strong performance.

Even with a Cyber Monday discount this might not be for you if you’re not a serious athlete or outdoorsperson, but if you want a watch that won’t let you down whether you’re running a marathon or hiking a trail, this is the one for you.

The Garmin Venu 2 is a great-looking watch for everyday wear and workouts, and will suit more casual athletes (Image credit: Garmin)

2. Garmin Venu 2

The best Garmin watch for all-day wear

Screen size: 1.3-inch or 1.1-inch diameter | Touchscreen: Yes | Battery life using GPS: Up to 8 hours with music, 22 hours without | Battery life on standby: Up to 12 days | Onboard storage: 200 hours activity data, 650 songs | Bluetooth connection: Yes | Smartwatch capabilities: Yes | Multisport: Dozens

Available in two sizesSuperb AMOLED displayGreat fitness tracking featuresLimited app support

The Garmin Venu 2 is a mid-range wearable that does a great job of functioning both as a conventional smartwatch and as a sports watch.

Unlike many Garmin devices this has a fairly stylish, sleek design, yet it still has all the features you need when training outdoors or in, including GPS, heart rate monitoring, cadence tracking and a whole lot more.

The Venu 2 only launched in 2021 so we don’t have any Cyber Monday history for it, but the original Garmin Venu did get a solid $100 discount last year, and Garmin wearables in general tend to get reduced, so we wouldn’t be surprised if there are some decent deals on this too.

3. Garmin Forerunner 55

The best Garmin watch for new runners

Screen size: 1.04-inch x 1.04-inch | Touchscreen: No | Battery life using GPS: 20 hours | Battery life on standby: 14 days | Onboard storage: 200 hours of data | Bluetooth connection: Yes | Smartwatch capabilities: Yes | Multisport: Cycling | Inbuilt heart-rate monitor: Yes

LightweightGood valueLimited sport profilesPlastic-heavy build

If you’re after a budget Garmin watch then the Garmin Forerunner 55 is a top choice, especially if you’re a runner.

There’s no touchscreen, but the five hardware buttons that you get instead are arguably easier to use mid-run, and with suggested workouts and post-training advice this wearable goes beyond just tracking – it also gives you the insights you need to train better.

We found that it had extremely accurate GPS too, and it’s a bit of a bargain even when it’s not discounted, so this could be a low-end star of Cyber Monday if there are any decent deals on it.

This is a slightly smaller version of the original Forerunner 45 running watch, and is surprisingly feature-packed for the price.

It automatically records shot distances and locations, and can even be paired with optional Garmin club-tracking sensors.

Garmin Vivoactive 4S: $349.99 $246.29 at Amazon (save $103.70)
This is a scaled down version of the regular Vivoactive 4, with a 40mm face that’s better suited to smaller wrists. It packs all the same features as its larger counterpart, including excellent workout tracking with super accurate GPS, SpO2 monitoring, on-watch music streaming and stacks of stats.

This is a turbo-charged version of the original Fenix 6X, with additional training features for runners and skiers, plus extensive golf course maps. It’s a top-end Garmin watch, and it’s very rare to see it under $600, so this is a seriously impressive deal.

Last year’s Cyber Monday Garmin deals in the UK

Garmin Fenix 6: £458.53 £359 at Amazon (save £99.53)
This is a huge saving on Garmin’s flagship sports watch, and one we’d been hoping for all year. Our reviewer called the Fenix 6 “the best multi-sport watch you can buy” thanks to its unbeatable outdoor sports tracking, accurate biometrics, and solidly built design. Its main downside at launch was its price, but with almost £100 off, that’s no longer an issue. Very highly recommended.

Garmin Vivomove Style: £259.99 £189.99 at Argos (save £70)
The Garmin Vivomove is a gorgeous hybrid smartwatch that’s perfect for anyone who finds regular fitness trackers a little bit ugly. It has an analog face with a hidden digital display that reveals vital stats and smartphone notifications at the push of a button. It collects far more data than that though, and pushes a wealth of info on your activity and wellbeing to the Garmin Connect app on your phone. A stunning smartwatch, and a great deal with £70 off at Argos.

Garmin Fenix 6S: £424.29 £359 at Amazon (save £65.29)
This is a scaled-down version of Garmin’s flagship Fenix 6, with a 42mm face that’s better suited to smaller wrists. It still boasts all the same features as the larger version, including multi-day batter life in GPS mode, multi-sports tracking, stress monitoring and SpO2 tracking, plus barometric altimeter and thermometer.

Garmin Fenix 6S Pro: £581.94 £439 at Amazon (save £142.94)
This is a souped-up version of the classic Fenix 6S, with some added extras for runners and golfers. PacePro tech helps you manage your pace during training runs and races, and CourseView gives you access to over 41,000 golf course maps right on your wrist. That’s a lot to pack into a 42mm sports watch, and this is its lowest price ever at Amazon.

Garmin Fenix 6X Pro: £549 £488 at Amazon (save £61)
This is a turbo-charged version of the original Fenix 6X, with additional training features for runners and skiers, plus extensive golf course maps. The £61 price drop is fairly modest, and there’s no question this is still a very expensive sports watch. The original Fenix 6 is over £100 cheaper, and gives you almost all the same features unless you’re a very keen sportsperson.
