It’s one of the thinnest, sleekest fitness trackers we’ve used.įitbit claims Alta HR is one of the smallest wearables on the market with continuous heart-rate tracking, and that seems likely - it’s tiny. While we wish the body was waterproof, and the display was a little easier to activate, we think the Alta HR is one of the best fitness trackers you can buy at its price point. We came away impressed by the device’s accuracy when tracking heart rate. That’s where the Alta HR, Fitbit’s newest tracker, comes in.įitbit’s Alta HR improves upon last year’s Alta with sleep-tracking and heart rate-monitoring features - all in a slim, compact frame. But even incumbents can’t afford to rest on their laurels. The wrist-worn wearables record your steps, calories, and other metrics to help you to lose your love handles - or at the very least, feel less guilty about the leftover pizza you had for breakfast.įitbit’s the undisputed king of these trackers, shipping 5.7 million devices in the second quarter of 2016 and capturing 25 percent of the global fitness market. Not much can be said about fitness trackers that hasn’t already been written. No manual fitness profiles or relaxation features They both have heart-rate sensors, can both track all-day fitness, and can both display basic notifications. The Alta HR and Charge 2 are priced the same. But the Sleep Stages feature will also be coming to the Charge 2 and Blaze later this month. Rather than simply tracking how long you slept, it will now measure when you're in light, deep and REM sleep cycles, and provide insights on your sleep habits. The Alta HR is also the first to get Fitbit's new Sleep Stages feature. The company has found that users take 700 more steps when friends are on the platform and more than 2,000 steps when competing in a challenge. These challenges can help keep people active and motivated - it does for me and is the key draw to the Fitbit platform. Fitbit has the largest user base (23.2 million active users to be exact) and offers a variety of weekly challenges for competing against friends and family members. The one thing I love about the Fitbit app is the size of the community.
