Il Huawei Watch Fit is a fitness tracker masquerading as a smartwatch. This statement is justified by the design, really pleasant and nice with AMOLED screenrectangular and large, but thanks to the well-optimized spaces, it turns out to be also perfect for a girl’s wrist. The touch is always responsive, there is automatic brightness adjustment and the GPSa real plus for practicing physical activity.

The operating system does not offer the possibility of installing third-party apps, but it is quite complete for the segment it belongs to. Allows the monitoring of over 90 types of sportssleep quality, heart rate and blood oxygenation. What has just been listed is shown accurately within the smartphone app. We close this brief description by confirming the presence of one water resistant shell and of one maximum autonomy of 10 days.

Fitbit Luxe has already been around for almost two years and represents the company’s initiative to offer a more luxurious and prestigious product than the “usual” fitness band. In terms of shape, it is more or less the same as the Inspire line, but the materials have changed and there is greater attention to design – both hardware and software. Feature-wise, Luxe measures up heart rate, sleep quality and stress and is equipped with a color touch display and an autonomy of up to 5 days. It is able to monitor our physical movements, so as to provide us with continuous feedback, and offers information on SpO2, respiration and skin temperature.

Thanks to its compact size and low weight, it is very comfortable to wear. The display AMOLED it is very bright and has bright colors, just enough for comfortable use even under the sun. The bezels are a bit plentiful – let’s just say the effective area is a bit sacrificed. Accuracy and tracking during use is precise and reliable. Too bad for the absence of an altimeter and GPS (but you can use the smartphone via Bluetooth). The autonomy can also reach two complete weeks.

Xiaomi Smart Band 7 Pro it’s more of a smartwatch than a band. A device lightcomfortable and suitable for any type of wrist, equipped with a 1.64 inch AMOLED display That offers a brightness of 500nit (which can be set manually or automatically). Too bad for the absence of physical keysgiven the focus on training – there are more than 110 sports modes – a way to interact more easily with the device during sports could have been foreseen.

The features offered are so many, from the possibility of receive notifications (but cannot be answered) up to Alexa, from Integrated GPS to fitness, sleep, heart rate and blood oxygen level monitoring. A great pity the absence of NFCwhich is also missing on the Smart Band 7.

Con Charge 5, FitBit renew your top-of-the-range smart bracelet, a product that incorporates all the qualities already present in the previous models and enriches them with a more refined designlower weight, rectangular AMOLED display and new features. In addition to Integrated GPSthe very precise heart rate detection system e FitBit Pay for making contactless payments (via NFC), here comes the EDA scan and the FitBit ECG. The first uses the measurement of electrothermal activity to monitor the body’s response to stress, while the second is useful (very useful) for detect the signals of atrial fibrillation via electrocardiogram.

Another novelty is represented by the Daily Recovery Level which will inform you about the best moments to train or rest. The smart features, already complete and functional in the Charge 4, but which, thanks to the color touch screen, acquire an even greater practicality of use. This wearable represents the best compact fitness tracker currently available on the market, the model to beat that manages to compete with many mid-range and high-end smartwatches.
