Since bursting onto the scene just a few short years ago, smart watches have firmly become a staple in our day to day wellness routines. Not only are they a convenient way to stay connected when you don’t have direct access to your cell phone, but they’re also helpful if you’re looking to stay on top of your health and fitness goals.

Many smart watches can set you back hundreds of dollars, but you can also find top-quality affordable alternatives — if you know where to look. Amazon is one shopping destination where you’ll find options to suit every budget, including the popular Umidigi Uwatch3 Smart Watch.

Normally retailing for $46, the top-rated smart watch is now an even more affordable $39.
