Yes, it does look like an Apple Watch, but this costs way lesser and is more of a glorified fitness tracker. It is extremely lightweight, packs a 1.43-inch display, promises up to 9 days of battery life, and offers features such as heart rate and blood oxygen level monitoring, sleep tracking, breathing analysis to name a few.

Glorified fitness band that looks like a watch

honor band 5
Honor Band 5

One of the most affordable options on the list, the Honor Band 5 is a seriously good fitness tracker. I’ve personally used it for a few months, and have come out thoroughly impressed with the overall quality and performance for that asking price. You get support for features such as swim tracking, blood oxygen saturation level analysis, sleep tracking, heart rate detection, and the ability to log data for sports such as running, cycling and rowing. The AMOLED display is a sweet addition in this segment, and the promised battery life of around 20 days is just the cherry on top.

Straight from the house of Samsung

This one builds upon the Honor Band 5, but offers a larger 1.64-inch AMOLED display that makes it look more like a smartwatch than a fitness band. It offers support for features such as continuous heart rate monitoring, stress measurement, blood oxygen saturation level analysis, an impressive 95 workout modes, and an onboard assistant to keep track of your notifications. Plus, the promised battery life of around 10 days is not too shabby either.

Great quality, unbeatable price
