Fitbit Alta review: High praise for low-level fitness tracking

Fitbit is arguably one of the most well-known companies when it comes to activity tracking, monopolising around 70 per cent of the market. It not only offers a huge selection of devices in comparison to its competitors, but it also offers an excellent interface to match.

Fitbit Alta HR review

The Alta HR is Fitbit's most stylish heart-rate tracker to date. It lacks an altimeter for stair and hill climbing stats, but its 24/7 heart-rate monitor will help you get fitter, lose weight, and better monitor your sleep.

Fitbit Alta HR review: The best fitness tracker for most people

Fitbit just made the slimmest fitness band with continuous heart rate monitoring. With expanded sleep features and week-long battery life, it's a...

I've said it before and I'll say it again: The best activity tracker is the one you'll actually wear every day, otherwise there's no point in buying one at all. Fitbit's new $150 Alta HR is the one most people would wear not just every day, but all night-and that's worth every penny.

In fact, the Fitbit Alta HR is the world's slimmest exercise band with a built-in heart rate sensor. On the design side, the Fitbit altar HR is virtually identical to the previous model.

If you're looking for an attractive, affordable fitness tracker that can handle the basics with little to no problems at all, you should consider the Fitbit Alta. Hardcore gym rats should look elsewhere.

Fitbit Alta HR review: Fitbit's new king of the hill

Long battery life and stylish design combined with improving app software make the Alta HR the best all-around fitness tracker for most people. Guess what: Fitbit's newest tracker is its best one yet. There are a lot of Fitbits to choose from, but after wearing all of them, the Fitbit Alta HR ($194 at Amazon) wins our vote. It has almost all of the same features as the Charge 2 ($170 at Amazon), our old favorite tracker, but in a design that is 25 percent slimmer with better battery life. The Alta HR has continuous heart-rate, basic phone notifications, and after wearing it for weeks it's proven to be a great fitness ($43 at Amazon) companion.

Tiny – great software, great hardware too!

Alta HR is a great option for someone that wants basic activity and sleep tracking features, but also wants a wrist heart rate monitor.

Fitbit Alta Review

Fitbit Alta does not offer much new in terms of functionalities, compared to the older Fitbit products. It does not have a built-in GPS and a heart rate sensor too. What it does offer, however, is a sleeker, slimmer, and adaptive design for those who are fashion-conscious.
