The whole catalogue of fitness centric tech products have seen immense demand in past few years, but the most sought after way to track your daily activities is fitness bands. In India, we have fitness bands ranging from Rs 500 to Rs 30,000 and the market for such products is on a roll with each passing year.
While brands like Xiaomi have some dependable products like Mi Band at unbelievably low cost, the segment is still dominated by known names like Garmin, Fitbit and TomTom.
A fitness tracker is the best way to monitor your health and activity without giving much attention to it. It can do constantly measure your vitals, quality of sleep and step count effortlessly and accurately. The differentiating factor that's used to judge a fitness band is its accuracy and usability.
In India, the fitness band market is filled with amazing devices, where almost all of them can do a fair job in tracking basic activities. But we are only interested in the best, and here's the best fitness bands for your fitness needs.
We won't be looking at smartwatches here, but still, if you are interested in any of those, go check our best smartwatch guide for that, which includes the Apple Watch 3, LG Watch Style and Samsung Gear S3.
The Moov Now is our favorite fitness band in the world right now. The best part is the price, which justifies the pack of quality and features it comes with. It just doesn't end there, as the band promises to offer six months long battery life.
On top of sleep monitoring features, the lightweight fitness band also comes with boxing and rep-based training with a dedicated swimming feature on top of basic sleep and steps tracking.
One compromise that you have to make to get this fit is GPS, but the price makes up for it.

The Samsung Gear Fit 2 is a major overhaul to the company's wearable line in terms of both internals and externals, which also comes at a much convincing price too.
It has one of the best design in terms of look and confort, which is complimented very well by the curved AMOLED display where you can spot even the smallest of the text pretty easily.
The built-in GPS comes handy when you leave your phone at home while you go for a run. Also, the heart rate sensor gives you top-notch accuracy of all the possible readings on a wrist based fitness tracker.

The TomTom Spark 3 is the third best fitness watch that's also one of the most feature rich out of the lot. You can upload and listen to music directly from the watch, without asking for a help from your smartphone. You just need to pair your watch with supported Bluetooth earphones and head out for a run.
More impressive features include is the GPS tracking, heart rate monitor and route navigation, which makes it a great wrist companion while discovering new places.

Huawei Band 2 Pro is a sleek little fitness tracker that packs tons of features into its compact size, and comes at a reasonable price.
The Band 2 Pro has heart rate monitoring, VO2 max, GPS, step and sleep tracking and a seriously impressive battery life. The slim screen means that this tracker will work just as well with running gear as it will with a business suit, although the slim screen isn’t going to be as easy to read as some of the competition.
So if you are on a lookout for a fitness device that promises accurate and precise metrics, then you might have to consider option above. But its slim, compact body at this price point is not for someone who wants to buy their first smartwatch.

In fifth place is the Garmin Vivosmart 3, which is on the more expensive side of the fitness trackers listed but offers almost everything you'll want from an exercise tracker.
With a six-day long battery life, a heart rate monitor and fitness age feature, this is a device created more for gym-goers than runners.
The Vivosmart HR+, the device Garmin released before this tracker, came with GPS built-in but this newer version has dropped the feature and it's a big shame for anyone who wanted to take this watch running.
Even so, you should definitely consider the Garmin Vivosmart 3, especially if you're looking for a band that can do high-end fitness tracking with an almost week long battery.

The Garmin Vivofit 3 is one of the best fitness trackers the company has ever created, and that now means it sits in this prestigious list alongside some other fantastic tracking products.
We particularly like the super-long battery life of the Vivofit 3, which means you won't need to recharge your device for a whole year.
You'll miss out on phone notifications by buying this tracker, but you do get the benefit of an always-on display and some great fitness tracking features.

The Fitbit Charge 2 is the best Fitbit tracker you can buy right now. It's more expensive than some of the other options from Fitbit, but if you're looking to go jogging this is a great choice that won't cost you as much as a traditional running watch.
It connects with the GPS on your phone, has a large screen to display your data, a heart rate tracker and new fitness features we've only previously seen on the Fitbit Blaze.
It may not be the cheapest device on the list, but this is the best Fitbit tracker money can buy.

Want a fitness tracker that looks more like a watch? You'll likely like the look of the Fitbit Blaze - it's one of the best fitness watches on the planet.
The first tracking watch from Fitbit is a strange looking device, but suits a lot of people and comes with automatic fitness tracking features that make it possible to just jump into an exercise and wait for the results to roll in right away.
With good battery life and a plethora of extra features compared to most other Fitbit devices, this may be the best tracker for you.
