Fitness trackers have been a global boom in recent years, and the market value is near 82 billion USD. People have become more inclined to use this type of technology with the likes of Apple Watches, Fitbits, Garmins, and many other leading brands. I understand why, they now look stylish, there more than just a fitness tracker, and most importantly, they keep you on track with your goals. But, how long should a fitness tracker last you? Here’s the answer:
A fitness tracker should last around five years (depending on the brand). If properly taken care of, the battery will eventually die naturally. However, if bashed around, split open, and incorrectly used, the longevity of the fitness tracker will dramatically decrease.
As you can see, you get plenty of usage out of a fitness tracker. However, brands will vary in quality, warranties, and replacements. Therefore, you should expect your fitness tracker to last longer the more you spend.

After reading the above, you should start to understand how long a fitness tracker should last. This varies from brand to brand and how you maintain the quality of the device. Most fitness trackers well-known in the industry, such as Apple Watches, Fitbits, and Garmins, will last the longest. It’s estimated that these last around five years, but it could be much longer or shorter depending on how you treat the device.
This is just a very rough estimate, but going over several forums and social profiles, this seems to be the golden year. But, although a fitness tracker will only last five years, it could be fixable. Apple performs fixtures on their devices in-store, and you may need something as simple as a battery change. If that’s the case, the longevity of your device will immensely improve.
However, if you’re going to opt-in for a cheap and nasty fitness tracker, you can expect the device’s lifespan to be much shorter. This is understandable, as you generally pay for what you get. If you’re looking for a good quality fitness tracker, I recommend the three leading brands: Apple, Fitbit, and Garmins.t
