Review: What It’s Like To Wear The Most Beautiful Fitbit Ever

The Alta is Fitbit’s best-looking tracker yet, but it doesn’t do everything its predecessors can

The good: Attractive; Comfortable to wear; Easy to change straps; Good battery life

The bad: No heart rate monitor; Doesn’t measure stair-climbing; Fickle touch screen

Who should buy: Those who want an attractive fitness tracker for monitoring the basics, like step count and calories burned

Fitness trackers are getting smarter, smaller, and more comfortable to wear. Despite these advancements, most of them look basically the same: a sleek black band paired against a tiny screen with maybe one or two distinguishing features. Fitbit is making an effort to change that with its new Alta wristband, which costs $129.95 and went on sale March 9.

At first glance, it looks like the Alta follows the same tired formula. But unlike many of Fitbit’s products, Alta owners can swap out their straps. That idea isn’t original — the Apple Watch and other devices have the same ability. Fitbit’s primary rival, Jawbone, also offers users a selection of fashion-friendly choices.
