Cheap fit bit/pedometer recommendations

[DancingInDryness]

I want to buy something that I can wear on my wrist to accurately count my steps and maybe track my heart rate.

I don't want to pay £££ for lots of extra features that I won't use but I do want it to be accurate.

Anyone got any recommendations?

If your budget is limited, I'd go secondhand - there will be loads of good ones on eBay, and eBay offers good protection for the buyer too.

DH loves his Fitbit, but I think it was expensive - you could compare their models and see which one you like. I've got an Apple watch and like that you can pay for things with it too - fitbits can do this too.

Very open to second hand.

What are good fitbit brands?

Have a look at cex for second hand fitbit, they have some kind of warantee. I've got a Fitbit Charge

My fitbit finally died (swimming), I decided to buy a cheapie - £24 on Wowcher. I love it! It does steps, distance, temp, HR, BP, oxy sats, and is waterproof.

I've got a Garmin Forerunner, but I can't remember the model. It's a few years old, but I really like it.

From eBay, it looks like mine is a Garmin Forerunner 35. I like it more than DH's Fitbit as the screen can show 3 things when you're running, so time, distance, and speed; DH's can only show 2 things I think.
