It gives you plenty of what you get on its Versa and Sense smartwatches, but sticks those features in a more band-like form.Īlong with all of Fitbit’s usual solid activity and sleep tracking features, the Charge 5 is the only Fitbit fitness tracker with built-in GPS, which isn’t best in class, but does mean being less reliant on your phone to track outdoor runs and rides. The Charge 5 is the halfway house between Fitbit’s fitness tracker and smartwatches. Battery life maxes out at 10 days and drops to a week with the screen on 24/7, but there’s certainly more good than bad here overall and the Inspire 3 is finally an affordable fitness tracker that’s worth having on your wrist. It gives you automatic exercise recognition support and will track pool swims in a basic fashion, but you’re not getting any onboard GPS.

An infrared sensor means there’s the ability to track blood oxygen levels at night to offer further wellness insights. It does make room for a heart rate monitor, which can serve up insightful metrics like resting heart rate and also gives you access to more exercise-centric insights like unlocking Active Zone Minutes and seeing your Cardio Fitness Score.

Especially when it’s such a light and comfortable tracker to take to sleep and wear all day. The aim of the Inspire 3 is to give you those Fitbit tracking staples like counting steps, nudging you when you’re not active and delving deep into sleep as well, and that’s where it excels.

The main being the introduction of an AMOLED touchscreen display, which isn’t the largest you’ll find on a Fitbit device, but does make checking activity tracking progress a much nicer thing to do now. The Fitbit Inspire 3 is the most affordable member of the Fitbit clan and makes some significant design changes from previous Inspires to make it a much nicer wearable to live with.
