And it can't be worn in the shower. The tracker is expensive for what it can do and so are the accessory straps. The display is difficult to see outdoors and is susceptible to scratches
Abstract: Do a search for Fitbit on Amazon, and you’re presented with a huge amount of choice. Even if you discount all the skins and third-party trackers piggybacking off the brand name, there are no less than 11 Fitbits vying for attention. How do you pick betwe...
The Fitbit Alta is a mid-range activity tracker for the everyday fitness fan, which is a real winner when it comes to slim, chic looks and a range of fashionable accessories. It tracks the basics (Steps, Distance, Calories and Sleep), plus boasts Caller I...
This tracker struts a gorgeous look. I really dig the angular shapes found on the module and the swappable bands can help you stand out from a crowd of joggers, Battery life is important to me, and I'm glad that Fitbit is among the small list of companies
The Fitbit Alta wins big as a reliable tracker of fitness-related tasks, but the inclusion of a touchscreen seems pointless. The touch gestures (tap twice to power on, once again to turn a page) rarely work as advertised and there's really no depth or uni
If you're looking for a fitness tracker that does exactly what it says it will do and not much more, there are a lot of options will satisfy that very itch. The Fitbit Alta is one of those options.It's relatively affordable, works on numerous platforms, r...
The sleek Fitbit Alta is Fitbit's most stylish tracker to date. It lacks an altimeter for stair climbing, but the new Alta HR adds a heart-rate monitor. Both offer the core Steps, Distance, Calories and Sleep measurements, and automatic exercise recogniti...
Slim and stylish design, Comfortable to wear, Interchangeable straps, Heart rate tracking, Accurate activity tracking, Great sleep tracking, Good week-long battery life, Great app platform
Not much cheaper than more capable Charge 2, Lacks a few features like Guided Breathing, No option to start a workout from device, No waterproofing, No altimeter
The Alta is by far the most stylish Fitbit thanks to its slim body and interchangeable straps, but the Alta HR brings function to the already great form.We loved the original Alta for its ability to offer simple and stylish tracking in a slim body but it...
Best Fitbit design to date, excellent 5-day battery life, comfortable to wear, nice display, notifications, accurate step-tracking, fantastic app platform
No heart-rate monitoring, no altimeter, no waterproofing, inaccurate distance-tracking, display not always super responsive nor visible in bright light
The Fitbit Alta sits on the fence compared to the wider activity tracker market. It misses out some key features, such heart-rate monitoring, elevation data, GPS and waterproofing. However, for basic activity tracking the Alta is fabulous. Accuracy...
More attractive design options, Leading ecosystem, Excellent app
Not for serious athletes, Screen slightly laggy, Still quite thick
Will Alta your perception of cheap fitness trackers? No. But it's a sleek, attractive fitness tracker that works well. Also, your friends probably have a Fitbit as well, so you can compete against them in "fun" fitness leaderboards. You really can'...
Genuinely motivating step reminders, Accurate sleep-monitoring, Excellently connected app, Grown-up form factor
No waterproofing, No heart rate monitor, Screen collects scratches
If you're addicting to the seratonin rush of weightlifting or breezing through your locality in a vest and shorts, then the Fitbit Alta band probably isn't going to be for you. It's a good-looking, low-key wristband tracker for casual gym goers and people...
