Try before you train... Sports watches
Team Cosmo finds out which are worth your, er, time
Fitbit Versa Lite Edition £149.99
“I’m slightly intimidated by both gadgets and fitness, but this was easy to set up with my iPhone 8. The app’s really intuitive and tracks my sleep, monthly cycle, calories burned, diet and steps. It vibrates when you hit a goal too, which is oddly encouraging. I’m hooked!” Maddy Senior Fashion Assistant
Garmin Forerunner 245 Music £299.99
“Despite going to the gym, I’ve never fancied analysing my every move on a smartwatch. Until now. This tracks your sleep, calories and heart rate, and plays music. It seamlessly connected to my phone and headphones (as well as my life).” Dusty Senior Digital Entertainment & Lifestyle Writer
Apple WatchOS 6 From £399
“I love gadgets but I can’t say the same for the gym, so I didn’t think I’d use a smartwatch. Now? I have separation anxiety if I’m without it. It does pretty much the same as the others, but also allows you to do an ECG to check your heart rate and rhythm. As of yet, it can’t perform an X-ray.” Sophie Bookings Editor
Kate Spade Scallop Smartwatch £279
“The rubber scalloped-edge strap makes it feel dressy and you can play around with the faces, too. It’s fairly easy to set up, but the operating system, Wear OS, is a bit fiddly (you need to download the Google Fit app for it) and the battery runs down quickly.” Sai rey Senior Fashion Editor
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active £229
“This chic, waterproof watch tracks your sleep, records your heart rate and calories burned, and offers breathing exercises when it detects you’re stressed (less annoying than it sounds). It’s the smartwatch for people who thought they hated them.” Kate Beauty Writer
