Description

The Misfit Flash is a less robust and less versatile version of the Misfit Shine 2. The main differences in this trimmed down model are less waterproofing, 30m compared to 50m, fewer customizable accessories and band choices, but a big bonus: a tiny price tag. So if you like the Shine without all the bells and whistles, the Misfit Flash is a good choice.

Pros: The price tag here is a huge pro: sub $20 for a pedometer that tracks everything the Misfit Shine 2 does and with the same accuracy, which is right around average for the category. The Flash is waterproof up to 30m, so less than the Shine, but certainly enough for most situations. It can be worn on the wrist or clipped to clothing, and its battery can last up to six months.

Cons: The Flash and the Shine are very similar, so have similar cons: the step tracking was not very accurate, reporting about 20% fewer steps than testers counted. Again, the Misfit app was not our favorite, and some of the notifications and alarms didn’t work reliably.

Bottom Line: If you’re looking for simple design and basic pedometer features with an extremely affordable price tag, consider the Misfit Flash.

Best for: A wearable pedometer on a budget; activities that may involve water
