  • We tried three popular fitness trackers, the Fitbit Inspire 3, Apple Watch SE and Garmin Forerunner 55 to discover which is best for you. Read about the best affordable fitness tracker and more.

The article discusses a month-long experiment where the author tested fitness trackers from Apple, Garmin, and Fitbit to compare their features, accuracy, and user experience.

Garmin's Forerunner 265 was highlighted for its superior battery life, accurate GPS tracking, and detailed training insights, making it ideal for serious athletes despite its less intuitive interface. Fitbit's Charge 6 was appreciated for its affordability, comfort, and basic fitness tracking capabilities, although it lacks some of the advanced features found in its competitors.

However, the author concluded that the choice largely depends on individual needs, preferences for smartwatch features versus fitness tracking, and budget considerations.
