If you look around now, many of your acquaintances probably have some kind of wearable accessory on their wrist. The market is so saturated with various fitness bracelets and watches that today everyone can have a fitness bracelet. But a fitness bracelet or smart watch in the form of, for example, is better Apple Watch? I have used dozens of smart bracelets, and in this article I will try to offer you arguments for preferring a fitness bracelet to a watch.

Price

There is no point in discussing anything. Apple Watch costs more than thousands of crowns. You can get a decent fitness bracelet for just over 1000 crowns. So, if you don't like to show off and are not a demanding user, a fitness bracelet is a clear choice for you. In addition, losing or breaking a fitness bracelet does not hurt so much.

Battery

The biggest argument for buying a fitness bracelet is probably the battery life. Apple Watch with moderate use and turned off Always-On With a bit of luck, you'll only need to charge the display every two days. Pro The fitness bracelet is completely standard for a week and you will rarely put it on the charger more often.

Weight

I myself have been a loyal user of fitness bracelets from Xiaomi and na Apple Watch I switched about three years ago. Although I no longer have this problem, I had a hard time getting used to the weight of the watch at first. Since you can hardly feel the Mi Band from Xiaomi on your wrist, for me it was a switch to Apple Watch a little uncomfortable at first. But in this case it is only a matter of habit.

Simplicity

Yes, until Apple Watch you install a lot of apps and gadgets. But does everyone really need it? Fitness bracelets are not even close to such options as Apple Watch, but if you are a basic user, it is enough to display notifications and the number of steps taken on your fitness bracelet. If you are thinking about your first fitness bracelet, the simplicity of the user interface will please you.

The arrival of premium features

If you are a technology enthusiast and you are interested in health functions such as oxygen saturation, stress measurement, Always-On and so on, you may have come to the right place here. Similar functions have also arrived on cheaper fitness bracelets. Of course, it must be taken into account that the measurement will not be the most accurate, but it may be enough for orientation. I once even tested a bracelet that measured blood pressure. Although not completely accurately, it measured.

Tapes

If you look at the prices of tapes for Apple Watch, you will find that often only the strap is worth the entire fitness bracelet. If we leave aside the purchases from Wish or Aliexpress, with which I have had a bad experience, you can buy straps for your fitness bracelet almost "for a pittance" in an ordinary electrical or e-shop. This may also be the reason why someone would prefer a fitness bracelet, because in the vast majority of cases the supplied black strap may not smell good to everyone.

Compatibility with multiple operating systems

Apple Watch you only connect it to your iPhone. This is not the case with a fitness bracelet. There may be a situation where you iPhoneto which you have connected the fitness bracelet breaks. If your replacement smartphone isone with Android and you are "addicted" to tracking your movement, no problem. I have not come across a fitness bracelet that would be limited to only one operating system.
