Rating of the best fitness bracelets on Aliexpress for 2024

Fitness trackers (smart bracelets) have become part of the daily life of a modern person. This happened due to the convenient functionality of these devices - they allow you not only to find out what time it is, but also to monitor the state of human health, monitor parameters related to pressure, pulse, number of steps taken, etc. Many of them have the ability to access the Internet, notifications about incoming calls and messages and many other useful features.

For those users who do not want to overpay for a well-known brand, buying smartwatches and fitness bracelets from Aliexpress is a good way out. The popularity of the models of smart bracelets presented on this site is mainly due to their budget price, so that even a schoolchild or student can afford such a gadget.

Shopping from China has become commonplace for a long time, this system is well-established and functions smoothly. Some shoppers are wary of shopping here due to the potential for cheating, however, if you follow the list of recommendations from experienced shoppers, there will be no problems. The seller of goods worth more than $ 2 gives a guarantee of delivery of the goods within a certain period, and if it is not received within the specified period, its full value is returned to the buyer. If the received product has defects, both received during transportation and factory defects, you can open a dispute and return part of the money or the full cost of the order.

How to shop on Aliexpress correctly

First of all, you need to register on the site. The registration procedure is simple and does not take much time. After going through all the necessary formalities, you can start choosing the product you like.

The choice of the desired product can be made in two ways:

1. Find the desired position in the "categories" tab, and then select the product with the best conditions (price, shipping cost, seller rating, etc.).
2. Specify the required name in the "search" tab - in this case, you will have to choose from several types of goods. For convenience, you can use the built-in filter that filters out products with paid delivery or poor ratings.

In order not to make mistakes when choosing a product, you need to focus on the following criteria:

• The product must be inexpensive. One of the main criteria is important for most buyers.
• Seller rating. It is determined by customer reviews. The more positive reviews, the higher the seller's rating. Many of them, in order not to worsen their rating, meet the buyer halfway and try to resolve all emerging issues before opening a dispute.
• The number of orders for a specific product from the selected seller. This criterion is not always indicative, since the seller may only start selling a specific product, which will cause the number of orders to be small.
• The quantity and quality of reviews over the past few months.According to the advice of experienced buyers, you need to pay attention only to the latest reviews due to the fact that some sellers at the start of sales could make mistakes when working with buyers, but later correct them and not repeat them again.

Rating of quality fitness trackers from Aliexpress for 2024

In modern conditions, a fitness bracelet is not just a watch, it must perform a number of functions, including a pedometer, calorie counter, heart rate monitor, sleep quality monitoring, and much more.

Consider the most popular models from the best manufacturers on Aliexpress.

Xiaomi mi band 4

The most common fitness tracker on Aliexpress. Smart bracelets of this company are in demand among buyers for a reason - they have a wide range of functions, good dust and moisture protection, and have the lowest price among competitors. The device can withstand immersion under water to a depth of 50 meters. This is the 4th generation of the Mi band series, it differs from its predecessors with a rounded display with full touch control. The back of the gadget has also changed - now the sensors for charging are brought here. In general, the device has a more attractive appearance compared to previous models. The device will look good on both male and female hands.

The screen of the device has an oleophobic coating, 2.5 D glass is used here. For the first time, a color screen is used on the Mi band. It has five levels of brightness adjustment. However, in the sun, its visibility is poor. The user can select up to 50 watch face styles as they wish.

Convenient music control is realized in the bracelet, switching between tracks is quick and without lags. To reduce power consumption and better synchronize with your phone, the gadget is equipped with Bluetooth 5.0. If the smartphone does not support this version, the connection can be made via Bluetooth 4.2.

Due to the fact that a power-consuming color display appeared in the bracelet, the manufacturer had to increase the battery capacity to 135 mA / h. According to Xiaomi, under an average load, the device remains autonomous for 20 days. Compared to the previous model, Mi band 4 has more advanced sensors - accelerometer, gyroscope and heart rate monitor. However, ECG sensors and pressure measurement functions are still not added, which is why many potential users may refuse such a purchase.

The bracelets are available in three versions: Chinese with NFC module, Chinese without NFC, global without NFC. There is no fundamental difference between the Chinese and the global versions, since on the first boot, the Chinese version is updated to any language installed in the smartphone. Even in China, the NFC function is very limited, with its help you can only pay for travel on public transport. Therefore, in the opinion of buyers, there is no point in overpaying for its presence, since it is completely useless in Russia.

The bracelet allows you to find out the number of steps taken, calories burned, and distance. In addition, you can measure your heart rate, set a training mode, find out the weather forecast for the next 4 days, as well as your current location.

Among the main functions are notifications about phone calls, messages and other alerts. Many users will appreciate the built-in stopwatch, timer, alarm clock.

The gadget supports Android OS 4.4 and higher, as well as iOS 9 and newer modifications. The average price is 2,500 rubles.

Smart band Y5

A good option for those who have never used this kind of gadgets and do not yet understand whether they need such a device. The fitness tracker has a beautiful appearance, looks good on the hand. He comes to the buyer without packaging, in a plastic bag.

To synchronize the bracelet, you need to download the "LEFUN WEAR" application via the QR code. Compared to other similar apps, it has a limited interface and only allows you to set the time and date from your phone.

The bracelet itself can count the number of steps taken, calories burned, distance, heart rate, as well as the quality of sleep. In addition, the device is capable of measuring pressure. According to users, the quality of such a measurement is close to that of a tonometer. At the same time, the readings of the heart rate monitor may differ significantly from the real values. There is also a function to measure the level of oxygen in the blood. It is impossible to check the value of this parameter, therefore it is difficult to assess the correctness of such a measurement.

The gadget cannot read incoming messages, so notifying about them is practically useless. But Smart Band Y5 has a function that is absent in many similar bracelets - turning the device on and off.

To charge the watch, you can use the usual USB input; compatibility with it is carried out through the connector located at the end of the capsule.

Among the disadvantages of the device, we can note the problems with the brightness of the screen in the sun - it is almost impossible to distinguish something on it. The cost of the device is about $ 10.

• no USB cable included;
• not suitable for small children due to the width of the strap;
• sensors integrated into the device do not always measure vital signs correctly;
• to work with a smartphone, you can use only one program, the installation of which is made by reading a QR code.

Huawei honor band 4

Many buyers, wondering which smart bracelet is better, undeservedly ignore Huawei honor band 4, preferring its budgetary, but at the same time high-quality competitor Xiaomi Mi band. The manufacturer has done a great job of finalizing and improving the device, and now he can rightfully be proud of the high build quality and filling of the device.

The minimum set of accessories supplied with the device includes instructions (with a detailed description of how to set up and use the device), charger, USB cable, and the bracelet itself.

The device's screen deserves a separate mention. It uses an AMOLED matrix, the image is clear and contrasting, with good visibility in the sun. If there is a three-step brightness adjustment. The touch display also supports gesture control. It is possible to block the screen from accidental pressing only in the "pool" mode; in normal mode, a false alarm is possible if accidentally touched (for example, when washing in the shower).

The following information is displayed on the device screen: date, time, weather, number of steps taken, distance, weather, heart rate, number of calories burned, sleep time, notifications (no more than 10).

A special feature of the watch is tracking sleep phases using the TrueSleep function. This patented technology surpasses most similar systems in the quality of its work, including even the Apple Watch. Its error in comparison with medical electronics is 10-15%. The bracelet not only analyzes the quantity and quality of sleep, but also gives recommendations on how to improve it.

The device uses a standard heart rate monitor, but it can constantly track the number of heart beats and warn about a rapid heartbeat.

The device supports 6 different types of workouts, including cycling, running, walking, swimming, etc. The device does not know how to automatically determine the type of workout, so you have to set it manually.

Among the weaknesses of this tracker are unfinished notifications: small fonts, inability to reply to a message, the maximum number of notifications stored in the device's memory does not exceed 10 at a time, the message length is limited. The main problem is the freezing of the operating system when receiving multiple notifications at the same time.

The tracker has both a regular and a smart alarm clock. The latter can adapt to the user's sleep phases and is triggered when REM sleep occurs. Additional functions include a timer, stopwatch, and weather forecast. The NFC function works only in China, so it is not relevant for Russia.

Xiaomi Amazfit Bip

The review of smart bracelets from Aliexpress is continued by another Xiaomi representative - Amazfit Bip. This smartwatch is of a more expensive level compared to the Mi band.

The design is classic with a square (optionally round) screen, a wide strap, this option will not work for a child. Outwardly, the device resembles the famous Apple Watch, but the device can be easily distinguished by the inscription under the screen, which directly indicates the manufacturer.

The display is covered with shock-resistant Gorilla Glass 3, which is resistant to scratches and chips. The screen also features an anti-reflective coating for clear character recognition even in the sun. The screen gives a good view from almost any angle. The device is controlled via a touchscreen display, as well as a button located on the side of the device. The soft silicone strap has many adjustment holes, it can be easily adjusted by hand.

A capacious battery is built into the device, which allows, according to the manufacturer, to maintain the charge level in standby mode for four months. With active use of the device, autonomy does not exceed 10-15 days.

Amazfit Bip features:

1. selection of the screen type depending on the user's preferences;
2. counting the number of steps taken, calories burned, distance traveled;
3. heart rate measurement;
4. sleep monitoring;
5. tracking daily activity;
6. tracking of the passed routes;
7. Receive notifications of incoming calls, messages and notifications from applications.

To interact with the watch, you can use the proprietary Mi fit application. Its interface is simple and straightforward, and the functionality allows you to customize the bracelet for a specific user: select the functions displayed on the screen, applications that can send notifications to the watch, and more. Notifications on the device are displayed in a truncated form - you can see only what fits on the screen, you cannot scroll through the text.

When buying this device, you need to take into account that this is not a full-fledged smart watch, but a fitness bracelet focused on monitoring physical activity indicators, so it does not have the functions inherent in models of famous brands. Nevertheless, for tracking heart rate, monitoring sleep, and other indicators, they are quite suitable.

Conclusion

Before choosing a fitness bracelet (smart watch), most buyers are interested in what they are, as well as the device of which company is better to buy. Before making a purchase decision, it is important to clearly define for what tasks the gadget is being purchased. So, if you only need a stylish accessory that can show the time, you can choose one of the inexpensive options presented on the Aliexpress website.

If a person is professionally involved in sports, or wants to monitor the quality of sleep, it is worth paying attention to more expensive options. And it should be smartwatches, not fitness trackers.

When choosing a smartwatch for children, we recommend choosing devices that support incoming calls and track the location of the child. The function of removing the bracelet from the hand will be useful.

People who are interested in tracking essential parameters of human life, such as ECG, pressure, pulse, blood oxygen saturation, should not be guided by the Aliexpress website when choosing a device, since you will not find a device that can perform these functions efficiently here. It is best to turn your attention to Samsung or Apple products.

We hope that our article will help you make the right choice and buy a smart bracelet that will delight you with its quality and functionality for many years.
