Withings Activite Pop updated review: Like a Swatch marrying a Fitbit

If you've dreamed of your everyday watch doubling as a fitness tracker, the Pop is a top bet. After trying a new version that's fixed manufacturing issues, we like it once again.

The Activite Pop has great battery life, is water-resistant for showering or swimming, syncs with iOS and Android, tracks steps and sleep automatically, is affordable and is easy to use and wear.

Can't store data beyond a day and a half without syncing; setting watch requires using app; no heart-rate tracking; analog watch face shows daily goal progress but no other stats.

With its analog looks and Bluetooth-syncing functions, the Withings Activite Pop is a clever, stylish blend of everyday watch and connected fitness band that lasts months on a single battery.

Withings Activité Pop

Smartwatches are increasingly everywhere. Fitness trackers, too, in all shapes, prices and sizes. But if you're looking for a regular watch that also happens to do a couple of semi-smart things -- fitness-tracking, basically -- the Withings Activite...

Withings Activité Pop

The Withings Activité Pop is an elegant watch and a competent activity tracker for casual self quantifiers, but for $150, I wish it did more.

Elegant and simple analog watch with an understated activity tracking progress dial. Fine quality materials. Water-resistant to 30 meters

Lacks an informative display and requires mobile app for all interaction. App is slightly clunky and slow to sync. Can't revise incorrectly recorded activities. Sleep recordings were inaccurate in testing

A perennial complaint about activity trackers is that they are not very fashionable. French company Withings is trying to change that perception with two trackers that, from a distance, could be mistaken for nothing other than wristwatches, but house...

Elegant and simple analog watch with an understated activity tracking progress dial. Fine quality materials. Water-resistant to 30 meters.

Two of my favorites are the Basis Peak (superb if you do light activities, especially bicycling) and the Mio Fuse (excellent for heart-rate training). They both earn our Editors' Choice award, but appeal to different groups. I also like the ease of use...

Withings Activité Pop Review

Subtle but effective, Withings has managed to merge a solid activity tracker with an attractive watch. The Activité Pop tracks steps and sleep accurately and its helpful reminders may help you adopt better habits, if you take them seriously. I also...

Affordable price ; Simple, chic design ; Strong wake-up alarm ; Shower- and swimproof

Device slow to sync to app ; Cannot input exercises

The Withings Activité Pop is a stylish watch that doubles as a waterproof activity tracker at an affordable price.

Withings Activité Pop review: Forget Swiss Made, this budget option is brilliant

First came the Swiss Made Activité smartwatch from Withings with its shiny metal exterior, curved circular glass, leather straps, and hefty £320 price tag. The Withings Activité Pop is a lovely looking watch with built-in step-tracker that makes its...

Looks good, comfortable and lightweight, tracks sleep without fuss, battery lasts eight months, water-resistant

iOS only at the moment, step count is mean, can't change daily step goal from 10,000 yet

The Withings Activité Pop is a lovely looking watch with built-in step-tracker that makes its digital fitness tracker competitors look bulky, clunky, and, well, ugly by comparison. The only better-looking device is the original (and pricier) Withings...

A sleek step-tracker for those of simple tastes and sophisticated wrists
