Fitness Band Recommendation
Hi All,
Need your suggestions for fitness bands. Requirements - Sleep tracking, bamdinton calorie tracking, heart rate, spo2 or any other health monitoring.

What fitness tracker band do you have?
Please suggest something other than Apple watch and Galaxy watch. I'm not interested in having a smart watch. I just want to track my fitness metrics (HR, sleep metrics, stress etc). Any reliable band you can suggest? Something you have or heard about.

Amazfit GTS 4 (square) Amazfit GTR 4 (round) Amazfit Trex 2
Cons: Released more than a year ago and might shortly have a newer version
Pros: All essential fitness tracking present. None of the battery draining notification, pseudo smartphone thing. So has battery life of 7-18 days. 14-18K. Not cheap, not expensive either, priced only for the stuff you value

Get the Whoop 4.0, it’s a bit expensive. Had a subscription model. It’s only available in the US and if you buy it over Amazon US, you get the device along with 12 month sub free. Metrics mentioned above are good and insightful

If it's available only in the US, how is the service (or even warranty)?

I have it, and it almost got spoiled once. But their customer support is very good and they were willing to send a replacement device within 30days of purchase. But then it started to work. Post that I haven’t heard of any issues. Plus wearable trackers, how many of us actually give it for Service. This whoop is the same cost of an Ultrahuman ring air.
Have a look at it on their website and if you are convinced, then go ahead, else the Fitbit 6 is out

Apple Samsung watches are crap. Use a Garmin or a Suunto with 2 Week battery LCD screen.

Its a watch. Battery is paramount. I cannot charge it every 36 hours. Not willing to sacrifice precious battery for features that are not needed. Garmin / Suunto fulfil that - they dont need NFC , calling etc. Apple watch cellular is not a watch at all - its a phone with a heartbeat monitor and won't last more than 36 hours in the wild. My Suunto lasts 2 Weeks of regular usage.

I have a Fitbit Charge 5 since almost a year. I wanted one for the exact same purpose, and not a smart watch.
I wear it almost 24*7. Very comfortable and reliable. Tracks everything accurately (steps, sleep, HR etc).
It's a little large, so if you have small wrists, I'll suggest going for Luxe. I can't operate Luxe, I feel it's too small for me.

Fitbit has no service in India. It is very worrying.

@ThanosIsRight What service do you need for a fitness band? Most of the time it cannot be repaired, only replaced. My charge 5 got bricked because of their OTA update and they sent me a new one, so worked out fine for me.

Watches are passé. Get a ring. Ultrahuman's evolved to being excellent (especially for the 4 day battery life).
If you must have a band - look no further than the MiBand. It's built like a rock and cheap enough to have zero regrets.

I use Garmin Vivoactive, which is really solid. The battery lasts 8-9 days with a single charge and tracks fitness well (I compared the metrics with equipment in the gym, it seems accurate)
