Good Fitness device?

[leolatarc]

How well do you guys think this will be as a fitness device? The sport edition of course. Now I'm not a major fitness person. Just the normal walking, biking etc. Better than a fitbit or worse.

I know these aren't out yet, just asking for general opinions from what people have read or seen.

Definitely worse. Having personal experience with Fitbit products, they have the fitness aspect down. They've been doing it for over 7 years, so the Apple Watch has some catching up to do when it comes to health.

As of right now, Fitbit is the better fitness device and the Apple Watch is the better smart watch. They're really complete opposites but will undoubtedly be compared because they both go on your wrist.

It will be better at fitness than all fitbit models except the surge. The only exception being sleep tracking but honestly my Charge wasn't all that great at sleep tracking anyway. The surge will be a better fitness tracker, but at this point it is the combo of fitness stuff and other smart features that are what will be keeping me with apple watch. I don't have a need for just a fitness tracker.

Will be better? Maybe. At this current point in time? Not at all. The Apple Watch has basic fitness features. Its about even with the Charge HR at best. I'm sure it has a bright future in this area though.

I think other products may be better then the apple watch. While it has some features/sensors that most fitness watches have, the absence of a a GPS is a deal breaker for me. I have all that I need out of my fitbit surge.

Totally agree. I like the Apple Watch, but its only basic when it comes to being a fitness tracker.
