Counts steps accurately, Has long battery life, Comfortable to wear, Consumer testers said it provided motivation for exercise
No heart rate monitor, Difficult to set up, Device doesn't display activity feedbac, Supbar activity feedback in Fitbug app, Not as fashionable as some other fitness gadgets
At around $50, the device is affordable compared to its competitors, It uses a watch battery that lasts 4 to 6 months, so you don't have to mess with recharging every few days, Flexible wearing options (watch, band, pocket, lanyard...), Wireless syncing,
No ondevice data display, so if you want to know realtime progress you need to look at your smartphone (big downside, in my experience), Just splashproof, not water resistant, so try not to get caught in the rain while jogging, To sync directly with your

Design a little thick
Small, inexpensive and comprehensive. For those looking to dip their toes into fitness tech without making that much of an investment, the $49 Fitbug Orb is the best option. We don't think casual users will go the extra mile and log into the Kik port...

If you have a mobile device that's supported by the Fitbug Orb, then this is a pretty good deal. For only $49.99 you get a high-tech pedometer that can measure your aerobic and non-aerobic steps, measure your sleep, and gives you a platform for managin...

For $50, the Fitbug Orb counts steps, calories, and syncs data wirelessly to phones. The fitness tracker is also light, comfortable, and stays put on your wrist. You can also wear the Orb on a bundled clip
