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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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

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.
