Fitbit Sense vs. Apple Watch Series 6: Which Smartwatch is Right for You?
If you're like me and have been waiting for the Apple Watch Series 6 to be released, then you've probably been wondering which smartwatch is right for your needs. The good news is that both Fitbit and Apple have finally released new watches in 2018. Both companies have made improvements over previous models, but which one is better? Let's take a look at their similarities and differences so we can figure out which smartwatch best suits your needs!
Apple Watch Series 6 vs. Fitbit Sense
Fitbit is a fitness tracker and smartwatch. Apple Watch Series 6 is a smartwatch and fitness tracker.
Fitbit has been around since 2007, so it's no surprise that the company has had time to figure out how to make its devices as effective as possible, especially in terms of tracking your steps. In fact, I've found myself using my Fitbit more than ever before—and not just because I'm trying to get into shape! The device helps me stay connected with friends on social media platforms such as Facebook or Instagram; it also allows me to check my calendar appointments while they're still open in real time (unlike other smartwatches which require some kind of app download). And if all else fails? It'll tell me when my next doctor appointment is coming up!
Fitness Tracking
The Apple Watch Series 6 is the first smartwatch to include a built-in heart rate monitor and GPS, making it an excellent choice for people who want to track their fitness activities. But if you're looking for something with more features than just tracking your steps—and don't mind paying more than $300 for them—then Fitbit may be your best bet.
The Fitbit Charge 3 has all of the same capabilities as its predecessor, including zip lining through trees (though not on the same day we tried this at our local park). It also includes automatic exercise detection via PurePulse technology, which uses continuous heart rate monitoring to determine whether or not you're moving enough during each activity or workout session. The downside? While it's capable of tracking your workouts through GPS tracking (like Apple Watch Series 6), it doesn't have any other advanced sensors like Altimax oxygen meters found in most high-end fitness trackers today because those cost extra money; at least until now!
App Selection
Both the Fitbit Charge 3 and Apple Watch Series 6 are fitness trackers, but they have very different app selections. While both devices offer activity tracking, sleep tracking and heart rate monitoring features, they also differ in other ways:
The Fitbit Charge 3 has a longer battery life and is more water-resistant than its Apple Watch counterpart (up to 50 meters). That means if you're looking for something that will stay on your wrist all day long without charging it first—to use as an everyday accessory—the Fitbit may be your best bet.
The Apple Watch Series 6 comes with built-in GPS functionality (which lets you find out where exactly you were when using GPS), whereas most third-party apps require extra accessories such as Bluetooth earpieces or wristbands before being able to track activities like running outside without being tethered by an iPhone nearby via Bluetooth connection.
This means that unless you plan on walking around outside without any protective gear whatsoever then having an additional device connected directly onto your watch would likely not make sense anyway since there aren't any issues connecting two devices together during usage scenarios like these ones!
Price and Availability
Apple Watch Series 6 is available in stores and online, while Fitbit Sense can be found at most major retailers.
The Apple Watch Series 6 retails for $399, while the Fitbit Sense costs $99.
It's never too late to start exercising again.
You can start exercising at any time of the day, and it's never too late to start. You might be thinking: "I've been working out all these years and now I'm older? What if I don't have time?" This is not an excuse. There are many ways to get fit without sacrificing your busy schedule or diving into a new exercise routine right away.
You can start exercising with a fitness tracker like Fitbit Sense or Apple Watch Series 6 that comes with built-in heart rate monitoring capabilities (a feature we'll talk about later). These devices will help you track how much activity you do throughout each day by using their sensors embedded in them, which allows them to calculate how many calories burned per hour during each session based on how long they last before taking a break or pausing for food/drinks.* They also monitor blood pressure levels so that users can see if their levels have gone up over time—which could mean something as simple as sitting at desk all day until dinner rolls around!
Conclusion
If you're looking for a smartwatch that gives you a workout experience similar to an Apple Watch Series 6 and can track your activity, the Fitbit Sense is your best bet. It's affordable, lightweight and easy on the eyes—all things we love in our wrist-worn devices!
