Having a smartwatch can be a real game-changer, as you can manage your notifications, take phone calls, send messages, and so much more, without ever taking your phone out of your pocket.

Smartwatches are extremely convenient, but truth be told, they can get in the way.

Thankfully, fitness trackers offer many of the same features with a much smaller and slimmer profile, minus all of the potential distractions.

Best Smart Scales
It’s all fine and dandy to have a smartwatch or fitness tracker that can keep an eye on how your motor is running, or how many steps you take.
