Got an old smartwatch to trade in? You could get the new Fitbit Air for as little as $0

The Google Fitbit Air is a compelling choice if you want excellent health and fitness tracking features at an affordable price. But what about if I could make it even better? Free, perhaps. Well, that’s exactly what’s possible with this preorder offer at the Google Store, which could get you a Google Fitbit Air for as little as $0 when you trade in your existing wearable.

Now, to get the Google Fitbit Air for free, you do need to hand over a relatively modern and powerful wearable. Examples on the Google Store’s trade-in estimator that will cover the $99.99 upfront cost include an Apple Watch Series 9 or a Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra. Undeniably, that would be a big downgrade in terms of overall features, given the Fitbit Air’s no-frills, screenless design.

Google Fitbit Air preorder offer

If the minimalist and lightweight Fitbit Air, with its standard set of health and fitness tracking features, seven-day battery life, and Google Health integration, sounds like the right one for you (and you’re currently looking to upgrade from an ageing wearable), this is an offer well worth taking advantage of while it’s still available until May 25.
