Activity tracker

Looking for ideas of new activity trackers to try. I currently have a Fit Charge 2 and love it for the daily tracking but am finding that it is way under calculating my workout calories. I'm wondering if there's something out there that is good for both.

Under calculating? That's a first.2

How did you determine that it's underestimating, and for what activity.

I have a gear S3. So I'm familiar the software. Are you using s health? if so are you using general workout? because that setting does give really low numbers and doesn't monitor your Heart Rate during routines. Try the elliptical setting or one of the Under Armor apps, to get HRM based estimates. But keep in mind those most likely over estimate.

Apple Watch has done great for me the past few years, known as one of the most accurate wrist heart monitor compared to similar devices. It has a good amount of workouts you can choose from plus all the workout apps integrated with it.1
