Everyone raves about the new smartwatch, but I went with the basic fitness band

I chose a simple $30 band over a $400 watch because I just needed to track my runs, not get notifications. After six months, the battery still lasts a full week and I haven't missed the fancy screen. Anyone else find the simpler gadget works better for them?

Does the heart rate tracking on that band actually work though?

Ever try a smartwatch and just go back to a basic band?

My friend did exactly that, @roberts.leo. The battery drove him nuts!

Smartwatches are just tiny phones you can't even make calls on. My band does one job and does it well. Fancy tech is mostly for showing off.
