Fitness tracker

laurenebargar

When I started this journey, I bought a cheap fitness tracker on amazon, it works surprisingly well, however, it doesnt have a heart rate monitor and it doesnt sync with MFP Im looking to buy a new tracker, I would prefer something less expensive, but Im open to all options, what does everyone have and what do you like and dislike about your band?

I've had the Fitbit HR charge in the past and now I have the Blaze and what I love about it is the heart rate monitor and how it tracks my sleep.

I got the fitbit charge 2 for mothers day, and I tell ya, I am pumped, and I was pumped before. I love it!, I especially love the sleep part. how many hours I sleep in light sleep, deep sleep, rem, etc, and its very accurate. how long I am awake. super buy!, should have gotten it ages ago when I first wanted it.

I have a Garmen HR and I love it better than when I had a fitbit.

I have a Fitbit, the Alta HR and it's wonderful! It's cute enough and has enough features for me!

It's not so much on the cheaper end, but if you're open to spending a little more (or have a gift getting occasion coming up and want to drop some hints), I LOVE the Gear S2 watch. It's awesome at fitness tracking and syncing (plus does all the other smart watch things); it's a serious upgrade from the Misfit Shine I had before. I got mine refurbished from Best Buy for about $150 and it came in perfect condition and I've had no problems. I'm sure there are also various other watches/trackers out there that will meet your needs, but don't forget to consider a good used/refurbished one - you may get more bang for your buck .

I have the Garmin Vivosmart HR. It's a really good tracker, consistently ranks better than its peers. Has wrist HR, waterproof (I think to 50 m), music control, notifications, find my phone feature, Garmin Connect links up with MFP seamlessly and is an all-round good app. Has Run, Walk, Cardio & Other for activities, you can add manual activities or edit them in the Garmin Connect app. The Vivosmart HR+ also has GPS if you want that.

I found one of the most critical things was the app that came with the tracker, download the app before you buy the tracker and look up some screenshots and reviews to see if you like what it does.

Now i hacve the fitbit one and I use to want the fitbit charge 2 (as a present for my first subgoal) but now i am looking at the new misfit vapor (coming summer 2017) or the withings steel. I tend to lean to a hybrid but one with a heart rate function.
I dont want to spend more then €200 to be honest.
Reached my first subgoal, but still not sure what to choose.

I have a fitbit zip because I just want it in my pocket. I only track steps and active steps.
