What's a good Fitness Tracker other than Fitbit?

Mine has gone out and I use it a lot, but I don't want to pay $150 or more again.

Suggestions?

Mods I put here because the other forums doesn't generate answers like this one does.
 
I've seen people use the Garmin versions, but fitbit seems to have it on lock.

If you don't mind the look, you should be able to find a 1st gen fitbit charge hr for $60 easily... try maybe on facebook marketplace... as people upgraded they sold their old ones. My brother bought 2 first gens for $100 off this lady and they were in damn near mint condition. I paid $80 for mine on there... and it's still going strong after 2 years

I never even thought about getting one. Thanks I'll look into it.
 
Fitbit Blaze or Fit it Ionic. Had the Blaze just got the Ionic. If you aren't concerned with actual phone call features nothing else touches these for accuracy and functionality and the Ionic is waterproof
 
There was a review a few months back that said that those smart trackers are full of it.
My fitbit was great, but didn't last as long as I hoped. No even two years.

Hopefully I like the Gear S3, just don't want it looking masculine on me.
 
I have one of the clip on fit bits, but I want to get a new one with a heart rate monitor.

It will be hard for you to do better than fitbit. Which model did you have?
 
Hey Coco, all fitness trackers go out. I got the Fitbit charge with the heart rate monitor and it is the business.
But for the money we pay I need more than 18 months.
it doesn't bother me to take the 2 seconds to pull it out of my pocket or off the armband.
But as a female I don't always have pockets, but I just went ahead with the watch instead. I have 20 days to decide if it's for me or not

That's the thing, with a watch no need to even pull out your phone. Not even to answer calls or Reilly to texts. Hell, for some watches, you don't even need to have the phone with you. A watch can have its own phone number.
 
Can you wear your phone on your wrist? Trust me, having a watch makes a lot of things easier.

I have the Fitbit Charge and yeah it's easier to just look at wrist to check steps, heartrate, steps, a call/text message. I also use it to control music while I'm wearing Bluetooth headphones, the stopwatch/timer feature when jumping rope or playing racquetball:thumbsup:
