Every person stands to benefit from some level of activity and workouts. It is also a motivational tool to be able to track such activities. Having the right activity tracker on your wrist can help you out a lot in this regard. For starters, it tells you exactly how hard you’re working out and where you have some scope for improvement. Additionally, the visual reinforcement of achieving your goals can act as an encouragement to continue. Today, several trackers go beyond workouts and steps to track sleep, heart rate, blood oxygen, and more to give you a complete picture of your health. Here are some options available on Amazon that you can pick from. They promise a great combination of design, specifications and features.
Fastrack reflex 3.0
The Reflex 3.0 from Fastrack comes with 10 workout modes, giving you the freedom to choose your own fitness routine without losing the opportunity to track it. Its IP68 rating keeps it safe from damage from water or dust, so you can take it to the pool or the tracks any day. The straps feature an attractive dual-tone design, adding to your style quotient. The model also features a full-touch display with up to 20 watch faces to choose from. To know whether you’re resting well, the Reflex 3.0 comes with sleep tracking functionality as well.
OnePlus Band
The 1.1 inch AMOLED display keeps the screen on the OnePlus Band vibrant and punchy. You can pick from the available faces or make your own from your photo gallery, giving your tracker a custom look. The band comes with blood oxygen (SpO2) sensor, which operates on-demand during the daytime and continuously during sleep. This keeps you informed of a vital health metric at all times. Sleep tracking features sleep quality readings too, which gives you a clearer picture of the rest you’re getting every night. Continuous heart rate monitoring is designed to alert you when the pulse reading is abnormally high.
Mi Smart Band 5
The Mi Smart Band 5 comes with a magnetic charging mechanism that is designed to be hassle-free. The tracker also features a large 2.79cm AMOLED screen for brighter visuals. The women's health Tracking capability allows Menstrual cycle tracking and notifications. The Mi Band 5 aims for 2-week long battery life, and switching to the battery saver mode can push that to three weeks, making it a genuinely long-lasting device. The Personal Activity Intelligence score or PAI score gives you an overall picture of all your activities, helping streamline health tracking into one metric. Its 11 sports modes consist of Yoga tracking as well.
Fitbit Inspire HR
The Inspire HR from Fitbit features 15 goal-based exercise modes with useful metrics such as distance, time and calorie burn. SmartTrack automatically recognises workouts like walks, runs, swims, bike rides and more then records them for you in the Fitbit app. The tracker offers in-depth heart health analysis using the data from 24-hour heart rate monitoring. It shows you insights such as resting heart rate, heart rate zones and overall cardio fitness levels. The tracker also features a Reminder feature which nudges you to clock 250 steps every hour. Keeping it connected to your phone helps you see real-time Pace and Distance data during your workouts, as well as notifications.
Samsung Galaxy Fit2
The Samsung Galaxy Fit2 is designed to be just 11.1mm thin, keeping it sleek and comfortable on your wrist. A unique groove design prevents sweat from gathering under it. The battery aims to last up to 21 days on a full charge. The band can automatically detect five types of activities, helping you never miss tracking any of those. It also supports handwash reminders that you can configure, each coming with a timer to ensure you’re doing a good job. Pairing the Galaxy Fit2 up with the Samsung Health app helps it track your stress levels and help you relax when they’re high.
OPPO Band Style
The bright AMOLED display on the Oppo Band Style is protected by a layer of scratch-resistant 2.5D curved glass. The device also monitors your blood oxygen (SpO2) continuously during sleep for better insights into your sleep quality. Around-the-clock heart rate monitoring sends you a vibrating alert whenever it detects any anomalies in its readings. The band comes with 12 workout modes to cover everyone’s activity plans, using an accelerometer to track metrics like exercise duration, distance, and more. If losing weight is a goal for you, the Fat Burn Run mode on the tracker offers guided instructions dynamically based on your performance for optimal results.
