So it looks like my FitBit premium subscription either expired or google changed the terms. Either way, $80 a year might be more than I wanna pay if I can avoid it. Anyone have any experience with other health trackers for their watch? I have a Google Pixel Watch 2 and it's been great, but if I don't have access to the extrA data, what's the point?
I just got the new Pixel 10 Pro XL. Part of the deal includes $200 in Google store credit and since I'm a Pixel Superfan, whatever the hell that is, I just got a 20% off coupon code that doesn't expire for 12 mos. Thinking of getting a Pixel watch or a Pixel tablet this next Black Friday or Cyber Monday. I'm very interested in what you think of the Google Pixel Watch and if you're going to be upgrading soon.
I like it for sure, but a lot of that was because of the Fitbit tracking that came with it. Apparently it's free for the first six months, but I feel like I had it a lot longer. Either way, it gives you a pretty cool weekly breakdown of your metrics, i.e. steps, floors, sleep, heart points, etc. I think it's probably the best way to use the $200. I'm not a big tablet guy though. The pixel buds aren't any better than a mid tier Samsung or some other option. If your dad gets a credit too he should definitely get a watch, just for the fall sensor.
Fwiw, my old Samsung watch 4 is still going strong, I replaced the band at some point, but it still does what I want it. It certainly helped me get in better shape, as I said. I try to get into the highest heart rate zone for at least 5 minutes every morning (I exercise for about an hour a day), as I got stronger even running uphill didn't get me there, so I got a weighted vest and I do my morning walk and run with it, once again getting the right distribution of heart rate, and I sure feel a lot stronger.
