Fitness trackers have come a heck of a long way in a relatively short amount of time, especially when you compare what we have now, with those questionable clip-on pedometers that were extremely inaccurate and unreliable.
Whilst fitness trackers are very popular, and if you choose right, very reliable and accurate, sadly, they do tend to be expensive. What’s more, many of them are lacking when it comes to sleep tracking and logging.
Sleep is a fundamental part of life, and from a health and fitness perspective, it is extremely important. A good night of quality sleep can make a world of difference to how you feel and function the next morning, so to help make life that little bit easier, here’s a look at 3 quality fitness trackers for sleep tracking, that retail for less than $130.
