Fitbit’s screenless Air tracker and Shokz’s OpenFit Pro earbuds feature in a new Rolling Stone technology gift guide focused on products available through Best Buy, alongside Bose home audio and Ring security devices.
The roundup spans fitness monitoring, personal audio and home entertainment. It is a shopping guide, not an announcement that all the featured products have just launched. Rolling Stone discloses that it may earn affiliate commissions from purchases through its links.
Fitbit Air offers screenless fitness tracking for $99.99
Best Buy lists the Fitbit Air at $99.99. The screenless fitness and health tracker works with Android and iOS, according to the retailer’s listing.
The listing advertises battery life of up to a week and says five minutes of charging can provide one day of use. Those are advertised figures rather than results of testing for this report.
Rolling Stone says the tracker can be used without a subscription, while additional features such as personalised coaching are available through Google Health Premium. Buyers should distinguish the device price from any optional ongoing membership costs.
Shokz OpenFit Pro targets open-ear listening
The Shokz OpenFit Pro listing shows a price of $249.99. The earbuds use an open-ear design with ear hooks and feature what Shokz calls Open-Ear Noise Reduction.
The retailer lists an IP55 rating and Qi wireless charging support. Its specification table marks conventional active noise cancelling as absent, so the branded noise-reduction feature should not be equated with the sealed-ear noise cancellation offered by some competing earbuds.
Rolling Stone positions the design as an option for outdoor exercise and listeners who want awareness of their surroundings. That does not establish that wearing the earbuds is safe in every traffic or exercise setting.
Bose and Ring round out the home-tech selections
The guide also features the Bose Lifestyle Ultra Home speaker, describing Wi-Fi multi-room playback, Bluetooth and Chromecast support. Rolling Stone lists it at $349 with a claimed $50 discount; that price and saving were not independently verified against a retailer listing for this report.
Ring indoor cameras and doorbells also appear in the guide’s overview, but the retrieved article does not establish individual Ring model prices. Nor does it identify a specific $25 product, despite the guide’s starting-price headline.
The prices above are US-dollar figures shown in the sources reviewed. Offers, stock and delivery options can change. This report does not claim that these are the lowest available prices, and no independent product testing was conducted.
