- ocdtrekkie 9y agoFitbit Ionic is the spiritual successor to the Pebble, and has a five day battery life. Has been as low as $229 on sale. Not enough apps for it yet though.
- mikestew 9y agoThis former Pebble owner is quite happy with his Garmin Fenix and it’s week-long battery life. You’ll pay through the nose for it (US$500), but Garmin might have less expensive options with good battery life. I paid the money because I actually use the stuff that makes it cost $500, but something like a 620 might suit you for less dosh.
- Fnoord 9y agoVivoactive 3 also has a week uptime if you do not use GPS [1] Vivoactive HR can do with 8 days even. Both assumes you don't use the GPS. When you use that, battery life is far less, but you don't use that 24/7. I'm quite lost with regards to Garmin as in which devices do what. I feel like I'm lost in a forest. If anyone has a comparison website, I'd love to read such. From what I can tell it appears the Fenix has hardware buttons which the Vivoactive's doesn't.
