Garmin is developing a screenless fitness tracker called the CIRQA Smart Band. Although the company has not yet officially announced the device, an accidental leak on its website earlier this year revealed its existence. Since then, numerous leaks have uncovered various capabilities and features. Now, the launch price of the CIRQA Smart Band may have been revealed.
Garmin's pricing system shows a cost of $199.99 USD
According to a Reddit user, Garmin's backend appears to recognize the part number 010-04675-00 associated with the CIRQA. Entering this code into a public Garmin endpoint returns a price of $199.99 USD. Other currencies include $279.99 CAD and MXN $4,099. This price point positions the CIRQA Smart Band in a competitive range, below many traditional smartwatches but above basic activity trackers.

A screenless fitness band with advanced features
The CIRQA Smart Band stands out for its lack of a display, relying instead on intelligent biometric sensors and haptic feedback. Previous leaks suggest the device will monitor heart rate, sleep, activity, and stress, with an estimated battery life of over a week. The screenless approach may appeal to users who want discreet tracking without the distractions of a screen. Garmin is aiming for an aggressive price to compete with products like Whoop and Fitbit. In a evolving tech landscape, similar to how AI coding harnesses leverage context to improve efficiency, the CIRQA uses contextual data to offer personalized health insights.
