Intro:
In this video I'll be sharing with you my top picks for the best smartwatches and health trackers based on actual data, and we'll be discussing a range of different brands and models, including Garmin, Polar, Oura Ring, Whoop, Huawei, Fitbit, and Xiaomi. I'll be covering a range of different features and capabilities, including sports tracking, heart rate tracking, general health tracking, GPS tracking, and battery life. Whether you are a fitness enthusiast, a health-conscious individual, or just someone who wants to track your steps and basic health trends, I’ve got you covered. I've based my recommendations on systematic and scientific measurements I've taken over the last few years, since I believe that all my recommendations should be backed by a lot of data. So sit back, relax, and let’s see if we can find the perfect smartwatch or health tracker for you.
I’ve tested more than 80 smartwatches over the last two-and-a-half years, and I have always tried to share the performance of these watches based on unbiased data and systematic analyses. However, one thing that admittedly lacks in my reviews is a consideration of each person's individual needs, which might make certain aspects of a smartwatch more or less relevant. In this video I would therefore like to share my recommendations taking into account the different real-world use cases you might have, but of course still basing my recommendations on all the data I collected.

Hello Rob, I am.a huge fan of yours from Italy (I'm.sorry if my english is not perfect). I have a question for you: in this video, if you could choose two device, you would pick Apple Watch and Oura Ring. Hypothetically if you don't matter how many devices you wear and if you should not have any money problem, which combination would you prefer? Always Apple Watch + Oura ring? Or you would add the Whoop Strap, or Whoop Strap + Apple Watch or any other combination? Thanks in advance

I'm a runner and a swimmer interested in sleep tracking and health tracking. I've tried the Oura Ring, Apple Watch, and Whoop Strap. My favorite is the Whoop Strap. It is comfortable to wear 24/7 you can even wear it while charging. And even then charging is only once every few days. (3 or 4). The only time I take it off is when taking a shower. The Apple Watch needs to be charged every day and can only be worn in one place, and the Oura Ring just was not comfortable enough that eventually one day I took it off and never put it back on. The Whoop Strap has been on constantly for a year and a half.

I'm really glad you mentioned that getting a chest strap is best for HR. In practice the algorithm used to calculate the sports & health metrics is using heart rate data. So getting an older watch with good detailed metrics and a chest strap is a very good option.

Thank you for all of your hard work collecting actual data to use as a reference. Because of hours of watching your videos I noticed you kept saying the best overall for fitness was the whoop strap and I received mine 2 weeks ago. I know people have an issue with the subscription however if you are an avid fitness person you'll easily spend more than $319 (Canadian) on the newest apple or Samsung watch (ultra is $1099 and Samsung 5 pro is $579.99) so essentially you're saving money and have a company dedicated to improving the tracking instead of what app to add next.

This is the most thorough comparison I have seen. I haven't seen this kind of comparison anywhere else. I'm looking for a watch with good sleep analysis and fitness tracking. I work as a EMS helicopter pilot and alternate between day shifts for 4 days and then night shifts for 3 nights. I typically get 2-3 hours of sleep in the day and about 4 hours of sleep at night, for a total of about 6-7 hours/day. I want something to help me maximize my sleep but at the same time track fitness and activities. I am leaning toward the Garmin Venue 3 because it has the latest 5th gen heart rate sensor and the ability to track naps. The Venue 2 didn’t perform very well in the sleep tracking comparison, and I expect the Venue 3 to be a little better, but not much. I think my other option is an Apple watch, but I don’t like that I would have to charge it daily and how can I use it as a sleep tracker if I am having to charge it when I sleep. I might have to get a Garmin Venue 3 and a Whoop and use both. Anyone have a better recommendation?

Even when I sit to chart some nights a few of them have thought I have started to sleep. Might be a good comparison video as there are a ton of shift workers that are also athletes looking for a good combo.

Great video, thanks for this! I'm looking for one specific thing and would appreciate your insight on this. I want something that would wake me up in the ideal sleep phase and maybe some sleep data as well, but the waking up is the most important thing and it to be really precise. I tried a Honor Band 7 but it seemed to fail at this task, the smart wake simply would just wake me up every time at the end of the 30 min. wake peroid, even though many times I was in a deep state (which is also pretty innacurate as you showed it too in another video) and well within the 30 min I was in a light state as well but it never did wake up during those. Now I'm thinking about trying the Inspire 3 or the Sleep as Android app with smart bulbs from IKEA so it would monitor my movement in bed and gradually turn on the light in the dark room I sleep in. Do you have any other recommendation perhaps?

I am looking for a single device to begin tracking health metrics. It seems that the fitbit series are great for sleep and alright for overall health limited mainly by during workout heart rate. I was surprised that there was no mention of those for budgets at the end. It seems that a fitbit plus a chest heart rate monitor could be the upgraded version for solid all around tracking for under 200 if I am not misunderstanding your results.

Great video! I bet the deviation in location information from the watch's GPS will correlate very well with the amount of trees or buildings in the area 😜I have a Garmin Instinct and for the last two months have been running the same path. The path has a good combination of open fields, forests, buildings, etc. and I've seen exactly that. From my knowledge of electromagnetics and the way GPS signals travel, it's due to reflections of the GPS signals against objects, causing them to take longer to arrive at your watch and that influences the triangulation calculation. I love the Instinct though, the battery seems like it lasts forever, but I want to pair it with a chest strap to get more accurate HR information.

Hi Rob, thanks for this insightful critical analysis. Please do you have any published articles for reference? I'm writing on the wearables of the future for one of my modules in Uni. Thanks in advance. 😊

Any idea why the Garmin Venu 2 Plus is significantly lower in accuracy to the Venu 2? I am considering the Venu 2 Plus for the ECG reading, but did they skimp out on the accuracy of the HR monitoring in favor of adding an extra feature?

Can you please make a video for the most overall balanced watches for both Android and Apple users. It's for people who want to track exercise , heart and sleep. In all 3 budget segments.

Hi actually would be really helpful if u can tell that for Apple Watch did u use inbuilt health app or some third app . As I have noticed for Apple Watch 8 I face issue that it shows time in bed less than time slept . Would be really helpful if u can put some light on it

i just bought the huawei fit 2 because my last watch wasn't accurate enough with the heart tracker, i noticed the gt runner and the fit 2 switch places in the order sometimes, which one is the most accurate overall?

Thanks for the video. Since I mostly want the device for health tracking and the exercise type I do the most is weight lifting I've been thinking about a combination of Oura+Polar H10. Is this okay? I don't have an Iphone so Apple Watch is not an option. My second option would be a Whoop band.

Is the SE better than the Series 7 or 8? Is the difference really there? Surely you would expect them all to be exactly the same or the series 8 and the Ultra would be the best due to having the best tech and most updated sensors?

Thanks for this - another great video. Would you consider a video on “resting energy” calculations please.

Have you tried doing these on an Apple Watch Series 4 to see if it is the iOS update or the newer models themselves?

Your videos are so detailed it really helps me with choosing a product and knowing its limits. I am part of an Indiegogo for a new ring called RingConn Smart Ring. Hopefully you can test this one in the future.

So what are some best watches that have both excellent heart accuracy and as well as sleep tracking other than apple watches because I use an android phone?

@adamstorkbm 2 ай бұрын

Awesome video, thank you! One question: Can the correlation be read as percentage? I.e. does a device with 0.8 correlation mean it's 80% accurate in the relevant tracking?

For the health measurement, what would you say the Apple Watches lack / are behind compared to the Oura ring or Whoop?

Hi! Are you planning to do any reviews on the Bellabeat Ivy? Sounds like it could be useful for some people, but I haven't seen any reviews from you about them!
