Just when you think there can’t possibly be any room in the fitness market for anymore devices along comes the Atlas Wristband 2. So, what does the Atlas Wristband 2 have which it’s competitors doesn’t?
To start with, according to the website, when you buy an Atlas you're buying an ever-evolving ecosystem, the Atlas app will notify you when there are new exercises, expanded metrics and additional features available. The Atlas Wristband 2 will automatically log your workouts, offering a selection of workouts to help you tone up, slim down, add bulk, build endurance and more. On first impressions, the Wristband 2 looks and feels great, it comes sharply packaged in either a bold black and yellow or black and green design, the soft silicone strap is comfortable (even on tiny wrists like mine) and the whole thing fastens with a good old fashioned buckle. It looks different to most wearables as the tracker sits off centre in the wristband but I like this look and I think it could improve the accuracy as this is possibly the most accurate fitness tracker we have had.
The Atlas can track over 100 different exercises, has guided workouts and Atlas coaching to help you get the best out of your workout, you can then analyse how you did on the dash board (compatible with iOS or android) and can be linked with Apple HealthKit or GoogleFit account to track daily step count, daily caloric burn and more. The Wristband 2 is waterproof meaning you can use it whilst you swim and don’t have to take it off when you jump in the shower, the heart rate is accurate for an optical monitor, it can’t compete with a chest strap but we have yet to find a fitness monitor that can. The Wristband 2 can be used as a standalone device without your phone, this is useful if your phone is in a locker but it isn’t that easy to navigate due to the size of the screen.
The Atlas Wristband 2 is a good fitness tracker for people who mix up their exercise and work out a lot, you will get detailed feedback on your performance as well as ways to improve, so far, we are impressed with the Atlas Wristband 2 and with its ability to listen to feedback and constant updates I can only see it getting better.
