From making sure you get your 10,000 steps in each day to drinking eight glasses of water, it can sometimes be a struggle to keep up with all the health things we're 'supposed' to do. And our busy lifestyles – packed with back-to-back Zoom meetings and chaotic social plans – don't make staying on top of your fitness any easier. Thankfully, incorporating a Fitbit fitness tracker into your routine can make hitting those targets just a little bit easier – and what better time to invest in one when January 2023 is just around the corner.

The Fitbit Versa 3 is a best selling fitness watch with an overall customer review rating of 4.6 out of 5 (according to over 40,000 global Amazon users), and comes with a range of very appealing features.

A cheaper Fitbit option...

If you're still not totally sure about committing to a shiny new fitness tracker and are looking for something a bit more budget-friendly (we hear ya!), an older Fitbit model - the Versa 2 - is also a promising option.

It offers many of the great features that the Versa 3 does, such as step-tracking, calorie-recording and voice control, although the GPS function still relies on having your phone nearby (so you'd need to keep it with you whilst out on a run or during a bike ride still).

The Fitbit Versa 2 is available in three colours: Carbon, Mist Grey, and Copper Rose.
