Fitness Tracker Reviews
Look, we’re not going to bug you to get fit. That’s the job of a fitness tracker. Wrist-based wearables that track fitness stats are popular, and for pretty good reason: they help fitness-focused individuals chart a path to their best selves. The best fitness tracker should look good, operate as intended, and minimize false readings during workouts. We’re always testing the latest from Garmin, Fitbit, Polar, and more to find the next best fitness tracker for you.

The fitness tracker has industry-leading stress tracking, but pour one out for the future of Fitbit smartwatches

Apple’s entry-level Watch is exactly just that. Get it if you’ve never had an Apple Watch, or give it to your kids. Otherwise, get a Series watch.
