It\u2019s been five<\/span> years since Google officially acquired Fitbit for a reported $2.1 billion, grabbing hardware and software teams that also absorbed assets from Pebble, which Fitbit itself acquired in 2016. So, how have things changed? Well, for starters, Fitbit is now Google Fitbit. It\u2019s not the most imaginative of name changes, and it hasn’t stuck in consumers\u2019 minds, but the good news is that Fitbit devices remain some of the most user-friendly and welcoming fitness trackers available. This is especially true if you’re just starting, or reigniting, your fitness journey.<\/p>\n

Fitbit\u2019s dominance has waned slightly in the face of countless alternatives, but its affordable approach, user-friendly interface, and great styling make it one of the best wearable fitness brands. If you\u2019re looking for a reliable step-counting, sleep-tracking monitor, you\u2019re in for a treat\u2014and thanks to Google\u2019s stewardship, you can now even find a smartwatch with features to rival the competition. Here are my picks of the best Fitbit trackers, whatever your wearable needs are.<\/p>\n
