(Part 2) Best smart arm & writsband accessories according to redditors

I bought these straps from Amazon and they have worked perfectly for me. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078ZDFZJR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Z.36AbN6C55SE

So since these pretentious dicks aren't any help I'll try to help. I am currently using the silicone case from my 5x to protect my 6x, it doesn't fit great, but it's better than nothing. It will do until something is made for the 6 series. I ordered it off Amazon. https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B077SG6TY8/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_kV6KDbSQD44D4

If you’re looking for a screen protector, I’d highly recommend this one. I do physical labor as part of my work which involves lifting objects, using tools and equipment, and working in a shop where there’s stuff all around that can be bumped into. I’ve banged my Versa into things a bunch of times but there hasn’t been a single scratch on it since this protected covers every millimeter of the watch that’s visible besides the buttons (it wraps all around to the back and there’s holes for the buttons). I was kind of wondering how well it would actually work until I smacked it into something which caused a fairly large and niticible scrap on the protector. I took the cover off to check the watch out and there wasn’t a single mark on it, and it still looks like new even after having it for around roughly six months. The only “issues” there are is that it might get dirty underneath and you have to remove the cover to charge it, but it literally takes one second to remove and put back on and all you need to do to clean it is take a damp towel and wipe it out.

I kind of went overboard on the accessories when I got my Versa since I was excited so here’s a few other things I picked up:

Versa charging dock: I wasn’t a fan of the charger that came with the Versa soI went with this. It’s nice and compact and pretty well made. Holds onto the watch well and charges very quickly.

Lether bands: I picked up four of these in different colors. Haven’t worn any of them a ton and only do so when I go out to do something nice which isn’t often lol (movies, dinner, etc.), but they’re comfortable and look good. Well made from what I see too.

Stainless steal bands: I’ve worn these more often than the previous ones and they’re really comfortable, you don’t even feel them at all. They fit into place perfectly as well and hook up easily too. I’m probably going to start wearing them more.

Rubber sport band: By far my favorite band and it’s the one I use daily. Stylish and durable and it’s one of the few times where I’ve seen a product advertise air holes as a feature and they actually work. Like I said I do a lot of physical work and I also lift weights, and I found that my wrist would become uncomfortable under the watch. This band actually does breath and I feel no discomfort. I did have a major problem getting it to hook in and considered sending it back at first, but it just simply doesn’t hook into the slots like other bands. It has the same mechanism but you kind of need to angle it downward and push it into place. Once I got that figured out, it didn’t become a problem at all.

Pick a size and color here, add it to an Amazon wishlist and I'll buy you one.

POY Replacement Bands Compatible for Fitbit Charge 2, Classic & Special Edition Sport Wristbands, Small Black, 1PC https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076Z8RWPZ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_5a4WCbZXK8384

I did a lot of research into fitness trackers before deciding to buy the Fitbit Alta HR. I’d only recommend the Charge if you plan on swimming. I actually disable the auto-exercise recognition because its just as easy, and more accurate to manually log workouts in the app like you do water, and calories.

It’s been perfect for 24/7 wear. I do weightlifting and HIIT cardio 8-10 times per week. The downsides would be removing it in the shower, and it needs to be charged every 4-5 days. The charge is water proof and says it will hold a charge for 7-10 days.

The Alta HR is smaller than the charge. I threw the strap that came with it in a drawer and bought this inexpensive magnetic clasp band on Amazon.

I'm glad that you asked because out of ALL the sports straps, this is the BEST one. All other sports straps that look like this lasted no more than 6 months.

Here's mine

Baaletc 22mm Watch Band... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07DCLBV5F?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

3.99 on amazon.

4 months strong, can't tell the difference. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XKCFW68/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I recommend a Fitbit! I have the Alta, you can swap the bands so it's appropriate for pretty much any outfit/setting. It doesn't look like a fitness tracker at first glance. You can set it so the time is always displayed and it's very easy to read. I use the default black silicone band for the gym and I bought this band for work/etc: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06X3VRKGM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_1Rvwq7IMmufxs

They make these extensions:

https://www.amazon.com/GHIJKL-Compatible-Silicone-Replacement-Samsung/dp/B077YBWCDM

That's the brand I used when I had mine. Held up fine and worked like a charm.

And my oem band started peeling so I replaced it.

I've had better luck with this replacement band from Amazon, I've tried three, and this one tracks my pulse better and is more comfortable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XG29HRG/

this is super awesome for people multiboxing, means all gochas will work with all phones.


to respond to original post. get a few or a pack of 'Replacement Band for Xiaomi Mi Bracelet' same form factor

I wish I could have 1,000 hair ties that I’ll inevitably lose in a week. Where do they all go!?

Fitbit band

This is where I ordered recently that included the extra band.

TreasureMax For Fitbit Versa Bands, Replacement Accessory Breathable Sport Strap with Air Holes for Fitbit Versa Smartwatch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07D35KFPV/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_-L6RCbCF8EWA0

I have the rose gold version of the Versa and lots of folks ask if it the Apple Watch.

If it's a Charge HR just replace the band. I only recently became aware of these and recommended a coworker check it out, just yesterday he showed me the finished result and it worked quite well. Basically looks new.

As others have mentioned, the fitbit won't register steps when your hands are stationary. However! Get the Fitbit Alta HR (I assume you want the HR) part, otherwise the original Alta is awesome. The band is removable so you can get a necklace, magnetic clip, ankle band, or a bunch of different styles of bands to replace the default rubber bracelet ones. For a warehouse job, I'd personally get the necklace or ankle band variety. I have a magnetic clip one and will attach it to my bra, but I wouldn't trust it hanging onto the outside of my clothing at all.
