Fitbit Debuts Affordable yet Capable Charge 6 Fitness Tracker
-
The Fitbit Charge 6 is a small, easy-to-use fitness tracker that costs less than most competitors while still offering essential features like heart rate monitoring and sleep tracking.
-
It has a slim, subtle design that's comfortable for all-day and nighttime wear, with a touchscreen interface that's simple and beginner-friendly.
-
Battery life is a highlight, lasting around 5 days on a charge. However, always-on display mode significantly reduces that.
-
It connects to smartphones to show notifications, and also syncs with certain gym equipment to display heart rate data.
-
Downsides are the lack of an off switch, the proprietary charger, and some key health metrics requiring a paid subscription.
