Apple Watch vs Fitbit - Which reigns supreme for fitness?

Wearable tech can be helpful for those with an active lifestyle, but which watch is best? Kurt "CyberGuy" Knutsson weighs the pros and cons of a Fitbit and Apple Watch.

Reaching your fitness goals can be made a lot easier with a smartwatch like the Apple Watch or Fitbit. These innovative wearable devices provide a wide range of features and tools designed to help you monitor your health and fitness, such as heart rate monitoring, step tracking, calorie counting, and sleep analysis.

However, since both have so many great features, how can you possibly know which one is the best pick for you? That's why I'm going to help you choose by reviewing some of each watch's pros and cons.

What are you using your smartwatch for?

This is the first and most question to ask yourself because it will help you narrow down exactly which watch will work best for you. Are you just looking for activity tracking? Are you hoping to use the watch as a lifeline? Do you just want an additional way to stay connected? These are some things to think about before rushing out and buying a smartwatch.

Even though the Fitbit comes out as the winner in 3 categories, my top pick personally is the Apple Watch. However, you may want to consider the Fitbit if you’re not an Apple user and you are looking for a sleek design and a larger community of fitness-focused users. Both watches are excellent choices, so it's really just about what you think will be the best fit for your health, lifestyle, and budget.
