I’m looking for a watch that can track my heart rate, stay on my tiny wrist, and that doesn’t cost a lot only to break frequently. Fitbit is….no longer meeting that criteria and was honestly out of my budget to begin with, but i am nervous about spending money again on something random that could also break just as quickly.
Any recommendations ? I have heard about pinetime, but I don’t have a computer or many technical skills - I couldn’t tell from the website if that device requires setup or tinkering to work? I basically just want to be able to look at my wrist and see my heart rate and what time it is. Nothing fancy, I don’t even really need it to sync to my phone, a long as it works for a few years and isn’t $90.
Check out the Xiaomi mi fit or Amazfit watches.
I was going to suggest this, you just need to not worry about the Chinese government probably having access to your data. On the other hand let’s not pretend the US gouvernement isn’t doing the same.
I don’t know if Xiaomi still sells them, but they used to have fitness trackers without a screen. I really liked that, much longer battery and no annoying notifications on your arm.
