Find Your Stride with Fitbit
The biggest emerging trend in wearable computing has been fitness trackers, which in turn have completely transformed the amount of personal data people have to assess their activity. Fitbit makes one of the best dedicated fitness devices on the market, and it instantly became one of our bestselling wearables.
As you can see in the following video, the Charge HR is small and appealing, yet durable enough to fit into your workout routine.
Measure Everything with the Fitbit Charge HR
Released at the beginning of 2015, the Charge HR is the most advanced Fitbit device yet, with the addition of a heart-rate monitor. It comes in two sizes to ensure the perfect fit – small, with a circumference of 140-155 mm, and large, 180-200 mm.
Once you’ve strapped it on, connect the device to your Smartphone for a range of functions – you can see incoming calls on your wrist, and view collected data on your phone as well as your PC. The device is compatible with iOS, Android, and Windows Phone.

The Charge HR is water resistant, easily handling rain, sweat, and spills, but should be removed when showering or swimming.
Track and Share Your Achievements
A simple OLED display provides you with information while using the device, but Fitbit also has a wide range of apps for smartphones, tablets, and computers that you can use to mine the data even further.
Detailed graphs show everything from calories burned to sleep time over the course of the day, week, or year. Through social network connectivity, you can even invite your friends to compete, or show off your daily achievements. Can you run 90,000 steps in one day? Why not find out?
