Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is the perfect time for early Mother’s Day shopping. Here’s what I’m getting

I’m never good at remembering when Mother’s Day is, and while I never miss it, it always catches me off guard a bit. However, this year, I’m ready, and Amazon’s Big Spring Sale is here to help me get started with pretty nice deals on some useful tech products and accessories that I’m sure my mother will love.

One of the more significant purchases I’m planning is the Pixel Watch 3. This watch normally retails for $349.99 for the 41mm Wi-Fi model, but this deal shaves $60 off, meaning you can strap the watch for less than $300. It’s not the lowest price we’ve seen the Pixel Watch 3, which dipped to $279 during Black Friday, but I can manage the $10 difference. Wear OS is largely devoid of good cheap smartwatches, so any discount is always worth looking at.

So why the Pixel Watch 3? Aside from it being one of the best Android smartwatches, my mother has been asking for new watch bands for her Fitbit, and being the loving son that I am, I would much rather upgrade her device instead. She has some fitness goals she’s working toward, and a new smartwatch that integrates Fitbit and has access to her favorite music streaming services feels like a win.

Plus, she and I can have matching smartwatches. I’ve been using the Pixel Watch 3 since it launched in October, and I love this smartwatch. It’s fluid, designed extremely well, and has a surprisingly impressive battery life. I also find the AI-generated workouts to be quite useful and a good motivation.

Alternatively, the Pixel Watch 2 is also on sale in case the latest model is a bit more than you’d like to spend. While not as good as the Pixel Watch 3, this model was an improvement over the original, with better battery life and accurate heart rate monitoring. And with this Big Spring Sale discount, you can get it for less than $200, which is pretty good.
