A fitness band or fitness tracker is a game changer for people like me, who are always behind on their daily fitness goals and need that extra push to squeeze in a few steps before our day ends. Trust me, the level of motivation I get when I see my step count on that little screen makes me want make big moves (literally). I believe that a fitness band is a great investment, as it not only keeps you informed about your body's progress in detail but also helps in setting achievable exercise targets. Take it from a person who was a perpetual couch potato and fixed it with the help of a fitness tracker resting on my wrist 24x7. And so, to help you choose the one for you, here's a curation of the 8 best fitness trackers you can get your hands on in India:
Best Fitness Bands To Keep A Check On Yourself With Ease And Style
Apple Watch Series 8
Samsung Galaxy Watch5
The next one had to be Apple's direct competitor. The Samsung's Galaxy Watch5 comes with a similar skin temperature sensing technology, tracking blood pressure and measuring ECG. It has several fitness features for tracking exercises and daily activities. However, the GPS is not as accurate as the Apple watch but except that, we would totally suggest this for Android users, especially those with Samsung smartphones.
Garmin Venu Square Smartwatch
If you are not familiar with the brand, here's the deal, Garmin is known for its world-class smartwatches that have the most precise GPS that helps track your steps accurately along with sleep tracking, heart rate, the usual fitness tracker features with unbeatable battery life and super sleek looks. The Venu Square is a great investment for both IOS and Android users looking for a trusty fitness band that does it all and still looks so good.
Fitbit Charge 5
When it comes to fitness bands, you can always trust the OG Fitbit to do the job. In addition to the Built-in GPS, Sleep Tools, and 24/7 Heart Rate, the Fitbit Charge 5 also has a stress scoring feature that helps you understand how your heart rate, sleep and activity levels impact physiological stress followed by suggestions to manage it.
Noise ColorFit Vision 3 AMOLED
With over 100+ sports modes, this one's an affordable option worth all your attention. Noise gives you the chance to experience super cool fitness-tracking features like heart rate monitoring, SpO2 monitor, step tracker, calories burned, distance travelled and more on a sweet mid-ranged budget. They also have stylish stainless steel straps which are a great choice for pairing with formal wear.
Redmi Smart Band Pro SportsWatch
For those feeling unsure about investing in a fitness tracker, grab this one from Redmi which is perfect for beginners wanting to get the hang of a fitness band on their wrist. Like others, this one too is water resistant and has 14 water fitness modes making it great for swimming. With a smaller display, this one rests perfectly on the wrist with utmost comfort, making it a great choice for people who don't like heavy watches.
Boat Storm Watch
Another great option for those on a budget, the Boat Storm has a “wellness mode” that monitors your sleep, heart rate, and blood oxygen levels as well as guides you with meditation tricks when you need to relax. A fun feature that I spotted mentioned on the Boat website is the “find my phone” feature which rings your phone to help you locate it.
Fire Boltt Ninja Fit
Fire Boltt is an Indian smartwatch brand that makes the most affordable fitness bands with smooth tech that actually helps you stay on track with your fitness goals. The Ninja Fit is their most sort after fitness tracker that has over 120 sports modes and tracks every vital carefully, giving tailored workout and sleep improvement suggestions.
