Best Budget fitness tracker watch under £40?
anotherquestion
Posts: 521 Forumite
Hi folks,
I have been looking at my partners budget Honor band 5 fitness tracker watch (due to her phone been reset and having to pair it up with the watch part again) and though in the past I wouldn't have thought of getting one of these watches I am beginning to like the idea.
I understand these kind of watches have various health related functions such as heart rate, sleep timer function, step counter, workout, workout timer, and will also vibrate when you get a phone call, and can be a handy phone finder as well.
I believe a lot of these functions work best when you have downloaded the Huawei app to the phone, which I did find a real pain to set up.
Another function that I like a lot is, you can download a lot of different watch faces to suit your mood.
So I am on the lookout for an under £40 fitness tracker watch with as many health functions as possible with the ability to install different watch faces GUI, which I really want.
Just wondering can I use any of the brands apps with each other or only the app for that watches brand?
Any suggestions gratefully appreciated, for under £40 but even better if in the £25-£30 bracket.
Oh I know I don't really need this but once I have experimented a little with one I just want to give myself a small treat.
Many thanks for any advice.

Probably better looking at second hand for that price. Fitbit Charge 2 is around that price and works pretty well.1

I use a Xiaomi Mi Band 4. It costs £20 and does all that you specified.No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?0

The Amazfit Bip is well reviewed, I've got one on Sale on Ebay but I'm probably not supposed to post a link.
You can certainly choose from lots of free watch faces and its battery last for 30 or 30 days between charges.0
