The Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 7 (opens in new tab) is an affordable tracker with an impressive 14-day battery life and advanced health monitoring, including blood oxygen and stress levels. If you want to buy a Fitbit Inspire 2 but have a limited budget, then here are a couple of cheaper options. The Fitbit Inspire 2 also comes with a year’s membership to Fitbit Premium. The lowest price we’ve seen it available for is $56.84. The Fitbit Inspire 2 retails for $99.95 (£90) but you can often find it reduced to around $60 so it’s worth keeping an eye out for deals, especially with Amazon Prime Day coming up.

While it doesn’t have GPS you can piggyback off your phone’s GPS connection so if you’ve got your iPhone or Android with you then you can track your route and progress. You can get notifications on the Inspire 2 but because of the slimline display you will have to scroll through a lot if you get a long text message. It doesn’t have a pulse oximeter (or SpO2 sensor, that uses light to measure your pulse and see how saturated with oxygen your blood is) and the monochrome 1.4” display isn’t as crisp as the Fitbit Luxe. It’s crystal clear despite its modest resolution but the lack of colored icons might be an issue for users with vision impairments. While it has a small OLED screen it’s easy to read both in sunlight and indoors. During our testing period of the Fitbit Inspire 2, we rated it four out of five stars and said that it does a few things well and is an ideal first fitness tracker.
