Ask HN: What is the best alternative to Apple Watch in 2021?
Hi everyone! Lately, I have been a bit obsessed with health and trying to bio-hack my body. So far, there are some good indicators and I realized the importance of measuring and adjusting my life style to better optimize towards the results I am trying to achieve. My day job is 100% remote and in front of a laptop/screen so I need something to keep me honest.
I would like to get a smart watch and I really just want something that can measure accurately and be able to get me that data (even in a CSV format. No need for fancy dashboards for now). Most of the reviews I am reading are pointing me towards Apple Watch. However, I don't want to get an iPhone (also, I just got out of the Apple ecosystem 2 years ago and I'd like to stay out of it for personal preference).
What is the best alternative in the market in your opinion? Fitbit seems to have a bit of inaccurate sensors (at least some reviews claim). Is there a good independent smart watch maker that you would recommend? Or should I bite the bullet and go for an Apple Watch?
