Best Fitness Trackers

Fitbit has been producing fitness trackers since 2007.  Fitbit has won several awards for its devices and was voted one of the Best Places to Work in the Bay Area by the San Francisco Business Journal in 2013.  Fitbit's mission is "to empower and inspire you to live a healthier, more active life.  They design products and experiences that fit seamlessly into your life so you can achieve your health and fitness goals, whatever they may be". 

Jawbone is a wearable device company that has been in business since 2000.  The company is truly focused on helping guide people to a healthier life. "Get UP and find the better version of you" is their motto and all of their devices have been designed with this in mind.  They provide personalized insight for users and are a world leader in consumer technology.  Jawbone's approach to fitness tracking is unique, with over 600 patents related to its technology and processes. 

Founded by visionary innovators Cédric Hutchings and Eric Carreel in 2009, Withings has created products that empower people to improve their health and overall well-being.  They have built a range of products that cover the whole health spectrum, including the Withings Pulse, the Smart Body Analyzer, the Wireless Blood Pressure Monitor, the Withings Aura, and the Withings Activité and Activité Pop.  Withings is headquartered in France. 

With the focused phrase, "Motion is Life", Withings Activite is a game changer.  It was designed in Paris, France and manufactured in Switzerland and bears the "Swiss Made" label.  Withings Activité looks like a standard high-quality watch but has several amazing health-focused features.  It features a fine calf leather strap, impenetrable scratch-proof case, and is truly unique in its style for a fitness tracker.  But it's style is just the beginning.  The Withings Activité activity tracker includes features such as:

• Steps, Calories, Distance: The Withings Activité tracks all your movements, including steps, distance, and calories.
• Sleep Tracking: Activité Pulse O2 tracks your sleep patterns and provides you with comprehensive monitoring.  Then use the Health Mate app and see an in-depth graph of your sleep patterns and sleep quality.
• Alarm Clock: You can set an alarm in the Health Mate app and Activité will wake you with a gentle vibration.  Also, if you forget what time you set your alarm for, simply tap on the device and Activité will spin its hands to show you the alarm time.
• Swimming Recognition: This fitness tracker is able to identify and log your swim workout.  It is water resistant up to 50 meters and comes with an extra silicone watch strap for swim workouts.
• Long Battery Life: The Withings Activité has a battery life that exceeds 8 months, which is much longer than the industry standard. It works on a CR2025 button cell, so you don't recharge, you simply change the button cell.
• Automatic Time Zone Change: Activité is connected to your smartphone and automatically displays the correct time. So, it automatically adjusts when you change time zones.
