Heads up if you've been considering a WHOOP — the 5.0 Peak with a full 12-month membership just dropped to AED 1,999 at Virgin Megastore, down from AED 2,499. That's AED 500 off, and honestly, this is a good one since WHOOP rarely does proper sales.
For context, this thing normally costs around AED 2,400-2,500 in the UAE, including the mandatory subscription, so getting it under 2k is solid. The catch with WHOOP has always been that monthly membership fee after the first year — but getting that first year bundled at this price makes the entry point way more reasonable.
What makes this worth it if you're into serious fitness tracking:
- 24/7 monitoring — tracks everything automatically, no need to start workouts or remember to wear it
- Recovery insights — tells you when to push hard vs when to take it easy based on your actual data
- Sleep optimisation — way more detailed than your average fitness tracker for understanding sleep quality
Real talk: WHOOP isn't for casual fitness people. It's for those who actually want to optimise their training and recovery based on data, not just count steps. If you're already tracking workouts seriously or you're an athlete, this makes sense. If you just want basic activity tracking, something simpler would work better.
At AED 1,999 with the year included, this is probably the best entry point you'll get. Worth grabbing if you've been curious about the whole WHOOP thing.
