I went from using a garmin fenix to an oldschool mechanical watch and my stress levels have gone down like you wouldn't believe. The only thing I miss is garmin pay.

Got a MiBand as well. Had the first one, then the 3, and now I believe the 5 or 6.

Only replaced them because new wristbands were hard to come by after 2 years respectively, the battery was still going strong.

Now I've bought 10 straps right from the start and am only on number 4, another 2 years in. Let's see if I can beat the battery this time.

I like my Garmin Vívoactive 3. It has all the basic features (for casual walking/running) and looks okay.

I really like the look of the "hybrid" watches like the Garmin Vívomove or Withings watches. They look great but as far as I know none of them have in-built GPS.

Would be very interested in checking out the BangleJS 2 as well.

Garmin Epix Pro gen 2, by far the best, as like the 7x but with an OLED screen. A real fitness watch, rather than a apple smart watch

It’s perhaps not a fully fledged fitness tracker, and it’s certainly not a smartwatch - but my favorite health tracking device has turned out to be my Oura ring.

I used it alongside my Apple Watch for quite a while, but I’ve found that the Oura ring gives me plenty of insight on my sleep, recovery and (more limited) activity. And the form factor is just awesome! I don’t even notice I’m wearing it, and I only charge it every 5 days or so.

I’ve stopped wearing the Apple Watch altogether now, and I find it freeing not to have all those notifications available on my wrist, while still having the health tracking I want from the Oura. Obviously it’s not a good fit for someone who does want the other features of a smartwatch, but solely as a health tracker I really like it.

I used the Mi band 1S for several years, on the opposite wrist from a mechanical watch. That was a good solution.

Apple Watch for me, because of how well it integrates with my phone - the point where i end up using my phone a lot less.

I don't really bother with fitness tracking to be honest. I know in my head that I went for a 50 minute bike ride on the weekend. That's enough for me. I do appreciate when my watch tells me if I've been too sedentary/etc today or reminds me that it's late and I should probably get some sleep, but that's about the extent of my "fitness tracking" needs.

I've been rolling a Fitbit Charge 5 for the last year and a half and it's been pretty great, had an issue at six months and Fitbit replaced it, no issues since. Good screen, reliable tracking, 1 charge lasts 5 days to a week, no issues with sync.

Hard to take this review seriously if they didn’t test Polar. The gold standard of HRM and excellent Garmin competitor.
