THE ONLY SMARTWATCH YOU'LL<br />

EVER NEED<br />

WITHINGS ACTIVITÉ IS PACKED WITH EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR A HEALTHIER<br />

It’s one part standard wristwatch, and one part fitness tracker. The Activité Steel is so elegantly<br />

designed and made in Switzerland. It's not exactly the future of smartwatch, but we like the<br />

simplicity of the design and function. It tracks your sleep, steps, and activity. What else do you<br />

need it for really?<br />

BUILD<br />

We love the overall build of this watch. The rubber strap is so soft and comfortable, good to be<br />

worn especially when you're sleeping and working out. Plus, the technology is housed in a<br />

sapphire glass with steel casing.<br />

BATTERY LIFE<br />

It's paired with your smartphone via Bluetooth and it's silently running in the background without<br />

draining both the batteries on your phone and the watch. In fact, the watch doesn't need to be<br />

charged at all, and only needs a battery replacement after six months.<br />

TECH<br />

On the surface of the Activité Steel has two functions: telling time and tracking your daily fitness<br />

goal. That’s all you’ll get from the face of this watch. It’s minimal to the core and to be frank, quite<br />

hard to please. It seems to track less activities than a normal fitness tracker, but that encouraged<br />

me to just keep moving.<br />
