What’s the most important factor when buying a fitness tracker?

The fitness tracker market is pretty competitive, generally coming in cheaper than smartwatches but offering a laser focus on health and fitness features. There’s also no shortage of brands on offer, from Fitbit and Garmin to Xiaomi, Samsung, and plenty of other companies.

We want to know what’s the most important factor to you when buying a fitness tracker. So let us know via the poll below and leave a comment if you have more to share.

We can understand why you’d value tracking accuracy in the first place, as this is the main use-case for these wearables anyway. In saying so, we’ve previously noted that your fitness trackers aren’t 100% accurate in the first place. But it makes sense to buy a tracker that gets closer to that fabled 100% than others.

We’d also get it if you voted for style, as you definitely want something that looks good and feels good. But there are plenty of other notable factors you might prioritize, such as app support or a specific companion app, battery life, and pricing.
