Best cheaper fitness watch

[frenchbreadandbites]

I want to get both my parents a fitness watch that is compatible with iPhone and MyFitnessPal. I don't want to spend Apple Watch prices and FitBit seems expensive too (though might be looking at the wrong models) any recommendations would be great?

What do you want it to be able to do? Step count, track sleep, heart rate, GPS functionality to track routes / speed etc......?? Anything with built-in GPS will be significantly more expensive than something without. Garmin or Fitbit would be my go to brands for fitness watches and trackers. If you're wanting GPS then Garmin rather than Fitbit.
