he Runtastic Orbit is a fitness tracker that monitors both daily activity (steps, calories and distance) as well as your sleep habits, and is intended to help people optimize their health. It's the first 24-hour fitness tracker from Runtastic, a company that's previously made apps and products centered around fitness. At about $120, the Orbit is in the mid-level price range for fitness trackers, But in a market where so many fitness trackers claim to offer the same thing — daily activity tracking and lifestyle improvement — can the Orbit stand out? I tested the device for a week to find out.
Design/Comfort: ★★★★☆
The Orbit is a 1.8 by 0.6-inch (4.6 by 1.5 centimeters) device that has a display screen and a single navigation button. Unlike some other fitness trackers that can be worn only on the wrist, the Orbit is designed to slip into either a wristband or a belt clip. The Orbit comes with a belt clip and two wristbands (in black and blue), and you can buy wristbands in additional colors (orange, yellow, red, green and white) on the company's website.
