In 2023, you might wonder if Fitbit is still relevant. Despite getting acquired by Google<\/a>, Fitbit remains one of the most recognizable names in the industry. Fitbit trackers aren\u2019t meant for the most hardcore of athletes, but they\u2019re still excellent devices for tracking overall activity as well as monitoring certain health and wellness metrics like EKGs and blood oxygen levels.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

That said, the next few years will be a transition period from the Fitbit of old to whatever Fitbit will be going forward. I wasn\u2019t impressed with a recent decision to sunset legacy community features<\/a> like challenges, or the fact that all Fitbit accounts will require you to log in via Google by 2025<\/a>. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

What I\u2019m looking for<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

Battery life<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Fitbits tend to have longer battery life than more advanced smartwatches. Most are estimated to last around five days, but we\u2019ve found that some features like an always-on display can drastically impact the time between charges. So I\u2019m looking to see what you can realistically expect with \u201caverage\u201d use.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Feature set<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Most Fitbits share the same basic feature set like steps, timers, and notifications. However, not every model is capable of EKG or real-time stress tracking. The same goes for built-in GPS. Does the feature set make sense given the price? Is it missing something that it shouldn\u2019t be? <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Price<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n
\n

Fitbit has often been a more affordable alternative to smartwatches, but this space has changed quite a bit in the last few years. There are more options than ever, so does this device offer good value?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Who is it for?<\/h4>\n<\/p>\n
\n

This encompasses a lot, but especially in terms of the overall form factor. If it\u2019s for a casual user, is the design versatile enough for a variety of occasions? If it’s aimed at kids or athletes, are the straps durable enough? <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

While Fitbit\u2019s future is a tad murky, there are reasons to stick with its trackers in the meantime. Fitbit trackers are relatively affordable, especially since they often go on sale.\u00a0All the devices come with a free trial to Fitbit Premium<\/a>, the company\u2019s subscription service that adds guided workouts, meditations, and access to more in-depth metrics. So long as you\u2019re aware that changes lie ahead, here are the best Fitbits to buy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
