As Striiv taglines Fusion “Activity Tracker + Smartwatch,” which is fairly accurate relative to other trackers that claim the same, but it is lacking features that true smartwatches include, like responding to notifications. It has one of our favorite touchscreens and digital faces of fitness trackers we reviewed: The device tracks and displays the typical steps, distance, calories, active minutes and sleep, and by syncing with your smartphone you can view reminders, notifications, alarms and control your music. The main feature missing from this tracker is heart rate monitoring, which is available in the Fusion Bio for a bit higher price point. This Striiv fitness tracker comes with three bands – black, blue and red – so you can swap out the color to match your outfit.
Pros: The well-designed touchscreen allows you to quickly view and scroll through your daily activity stats. By syncing with your phone you can receive notifications and control your music.
Cons: Its charge only lasts about five days, and that may be shorter if you’re utilizing all the features. Testers also noted it seemed less accurate when tracking distance than other activity trackers.
Tester Comment: “I enjoy the display screen and all the information provided, but I had concerns about the accuracy about distance tracking, though calories, steps and active time seemed correct. It was difficult to adjust the band, but it stayed in place once I did.”
