I wanted a device that could track my heart rate when exercising and track my sleep. I like the strap and the fit. The battery life is good, needing charging every few days and not taking more than an hour or so.

I love this product. I have already lost two kgs since making this purchase. I am able to monitor all my activities and improve them when necessary or be reinforced for good deeds. I adore the accompanying app and the easy sync with other fitness apps.

The Alta HR is Fitbit's most stylish heart-rate tracker to date. It lacks an altimeter for stair and hill climbing stats, but its 24/7 heart-rate monitor will help you get fitter, lose weight, and better monitor your sleep.

Alta HR is a great option for someone that wants basic activity and sleep tracking features, but also wants a wrist heart rate monitor.

Some of us aren't good at motivating ourselves to exercise. Sometimes you get home after a long day at work, and there seems nothing better than popping something frozen into the oven and crawling into bed.

Without a doubt, the Alta is Fitbit's most attractive product to date.

Great design; Affordable price; Perfect feature set

Software could be better; No heart rate monitor

Small, unassuming and packed with an active heart rate scanner, FitBit's Alta HR is a great choice for people looking for a more accurate read at their daily activities . Sure it's a bit pricier than the offerings of other models, but it offers more than just basic step counting and sleep tracking.
