Samsung Galaxy Fit 2
- Price: $49
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Microsoft, Newegg, Best Buy
Samsung’s Galaxy Fit was a great tracker for any Samsung user, but the Galaxy Fit 2 is here to take its place. You’ll have most of if not all of the features that the original Galaxy Fit had at your disposal with the new model. Plus it’s cheaper than the older version by about $40. Since the original retailed for $100 and this one retails for about $60.
The Galaxy Fit 2 will start tracking your activities when you move, just like the Galaxy Watch Active 2 and the Galaxy Watch 3. So for many of the exercises you do you won’t have to set up tracking by starting it. It’ll just do it on its own.
The Galaxy Fit 2 also has a lighter design than the original Galaxy Fit. Yet it retains its large AMOLED display.

Fitbit Inspire 2
- Price: From $99
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Verizon, Target, Best Buy, Kohl’s, Dick’s
If you’re looking for a tracker that will suit the majority of users, then the Inspire 2 from Fitbit is one you should consider. It’s Fitbit’s latest tracker in the entry level offering tier.
Featuring a big enough display for easy visibility of your activity data, time, and more as you wear the tracker during workouts or just daily life. The Inspire 2 features Fitbit’s popular Active Zone Minutes feature to help keep you motivated.
As you go through the day, any activities you do that get your heart pumping will rack up these minutes. Walking, running, and anything else really where you’re moving around should count. Then as the week ends Fitbit can tell you if you’ve reached your weekly goal.
The Inspire 2 also tracks sleep, and it has 24/7 heart rate tracking. This time around there’s also no HR version because the heart rate sensor is just built into the standard model.

Fitbit Versa 3
- Price: From $229
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Verizon, Target, Best Buy, Kohl’s, Dick’s Adorama
Moving up from the Inspire 2 is the Versa 3. Which is really more of a smartwatch but can work just fine as a tracker too. In fact it does everything the Inspire 2 does and more.
That increase in features does come at a cost though as this is double the price of the Inspire 2. So that’s worth keeping in mind. That being said, the Versa 3 is packed full of useful tools to help keep your health and wellness on track.
Whether you need the Active Zone Minutes, the smartphone notifications, or the 90-day trial to Fitbit Premium, the Versa 3 is equipped to assist. It even has integration with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa.

Garmin Vivosmart 4
- Price: $99
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Newegg, Walmart, Office Depot, Best Buy, Kohl’s
The Garmin Vivosmart 4 is a little bit of an older tracker as it was officially released in 2018, but when it comes to Garmin this is the latest tracker the company has released that isn’t a full-on watch.
It’s also still a very capable tracker with all the necessary fitness-related features you’d need for keeping track of your exercise.
It comes with built-in Pulse OX sensor as well so you can measure your blood oxygen saturation levels, if that’s a feature you were looking for.
Garmin offers this device in a range of different color options just in case you wanted something other than the standard black model. And as long as you’re not using the Pulse OX sensor, the battery should last up to seven days.

In the market for a smartwatch that has fitness tracker features? Look no further than the Galaxy Watch Active 2.
We thought it was a great smartwatch and consider it the only smartwatch you should buy. If you want the best, Samsung has you covered.
From a simple and sleek design to meaningful and functional features like advanced sleep tracking and the touch bezel, the Galaxy Watch Active 2 is the perfect companion to anyone who wants to get into shape.
It can measure your stress levels too. Which is important if you have a busier life with a hectic schedule. Not to mention it’s comfortable. And it comes in a few different color options, with the added benefit of swapping out your band for something more stylish if the event calls for it.
Want to swap out your watch face? It can do that too. You can even take pictures and easily add those as your custom watch face through the companion app.

Amazon Halo
- Price: $99
- Where to buy: Amazon, Best Buy
Amazon’s Halo tracker is one of the new kids on the block here. And it comes in at a pretty decent price.
What separates the Halo from other trackers on this list is its ability to recognize your tone when you speak. It then uses this data to tell you how you sound to others. For instance it can tell you if you sounded angry during a certain conversation at some point in the day.
It also tracks sleep, steps, and other activities. Though, it doesn’t have a display to interact with so all of the data it picks up from exercise and daily stuff is visualized in the companion app.
So this might be the perfect tracker for someone who doesn’t want yet another screen to have to interact with.

Garmin Fenix 6 Series
- Price: From $550
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Walmart, Office Depot, Target, Bass Pro Shop, Best Buy, Cabela’s, Moosejaw, Kohl’s
Most of the trackers on here are priced at a relatively affordable cost. None of those are the Fenix 6 series from Garmin though.
This is a premium multisport GPS watch and is the tracker to buy if you want the best of the best with nearly every feature under the sun.
The Fenix 6 comes in a series of different models, each having something a little different. They’re relatively close in features though.
For example all of them offer Garmin Pay so you can make mobile payments, Meanwhile the Fenix 6 Pro Solar allows you to charge the battery with solar energy. Meaning you can charge it as you wear it outside during exercises and adventures. So long as there’s enough sun around to provide the energy it needs.
The Fenix 6 series also offers mapping features, music integration, and PacePro technology for grade-adjusted pace guidance during your runs and outings. You can track your heart rate and measure your blood oxygen saturation levels too thanks to the integrated PulseOX and Heart Rate sensors.
The price for this one is steep. But if you’re serious about your fitness and want something that offers features that you won’t find elsewhere, the Fenix 6 is where to look.

Amazfit Band 5
- Price: $40
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Best Buy
The Amazfit Band 5 is the tracker to go for if you want something that won’t cost you an arm and a leg. There is no other budget tracker worth buying because this is the best one there is.
It has a big AMOLED display that shows off important data like step counting, heart rate, the time, smartphone notifications and more. The tracker even has Alexa built-in so you can use the tracker to not only ask Alexa questions, but control smart home appliances and devices like smart ovens, lights, or thermostats.
It also features blood oxygen saturation monitoring and you can customize the face with tons of different available options to choose from. And one of the best fitness trackers on this list.

Polar Ignite
- Price From $210
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Moosejaw, Overstock, Walmart
Most trackers will offer your basic fitness features like step counting and caloric burn, as well as a number of fitness or sport modes to track specific types of workouts.
The Polar Ignite does those things, but it takes a heavy approach to giving you guided training so you can make the most of your exercises.
The Daily Training Guide feature attempts to give you the best workouts for you, aimed at helping you reach your fitness goals.
Polar also knows that after a good workout you need a good night’s sleep. This is where the Ignite’s ‘Nightly Recharge’ feature comes in. It was designed to help you see deep insights about your recovery overnight.
With these insights you can make decisions about how to perform better in your workouts the following day.
The Ignite also comes with integrated GPS for speed, distance, and route tracking without need to connect a smartphone to it.

Fitbit Charge 4
- Price: From $170
- Where to buy: Amazon, B&H, Walmart, Verizon, Target, Kohl’s, Best Buy, Dick’s
The Fitbit Charge 4 is the new upcoming tracker from Fitbit and while it doesn’t really look much different from the Charge 3, it has a handful of notable improvements under the hood.
It’s these improvements that make it one of the best fitness trackers you can get your hands on, and why we picked it as the best fitness tracker overall.
First, it has built-in GPS now. Which is a first for any Fitbit tracker and a boon for anyone wanting GPS features without having to link their phone up to the tracker.
It also comes with a new Active Zone Minutes feature. This targets your heart rate zones during exercise and praises you with alerts once you’ve hit those targets anytime during a workout. If you get additional Active Zone Minutes outside of exercise you’ll get extra praise along with them.
It has a new Spotify app too, so if you do keep your phone on your person while you exercise, you can easily control your songs and playlists from the Charge 4.
The best part about all of the improvements is that you don’t really lose anything from the Charge 3. You simply get more functionality for the same exact cost of $150. Making this tracker a steal and the best overall tracker.
