Garmin has launched the CIRQA Smart Band, its first screen-free fitness tracker. It monitors health and fitness metrics without requiring a subscription. The band runs for up to 10 days on a charge and syncs data to the Garmin Connect app.
We dig this design because it frees you from constantly looking at your stats and keeps you focused on more important activities. Probably good for people with ADHD (that’s why we get it and we want one).
Comfortable and distraction-free
- The band’s low-profile design tracks health and performance metrics without drawing attention.
- It automatically detects and records activities. You can review and edit them in Garmin Connect, and the band learns to classify activities more accurately over time.
- The fabric band is designed for all-day comfort and comes in several colors, including Citron Gray, Mauve, French Gray, Dark Olive, Captain Blue, French Blue, and Black.
- You can wear it on your wrist or as an armband, depending on your activity or sleep preferences.
Health monitoring
Worn day and night, the CIRQA screen-free fitness tracker monitors heart rate, Body Battery energy, Pulse Ox, stress, skin temperature, and more. Data is available in Garmin Connect. Women can track menstrual cycles and pregnancy, get period predictions and ovulation estimates by monitoring skin temperature during sleep, and sync with the Natural Cycles birth control app if subscribed.
The CIRQA Smart Band tracks sleep stages, sleep score, optimal sleep duration, heart rate variability, respiration, and nap detection. All sleep data is available in Garmin Connect.
Fitness tracking
Along with daily steps and calories burned, the CIRQA Smart Band offers several fitness tracking features.
- You can manually track over 80 activities, including running, walking, and yoga, or set a favorite activity to start with the side button.
- Performance features include training readiness, HRV status, VO2 max, and training status to help track progress and training effectiveness.
- The band shows workout impact and recovery time after each session.
- You can use your phone’s GPS to track outdoor walks, rides, and runs.
- LiveTrack lets friends and family follow your location in real time through Garmin Connect.
You can pre-order the CIRQA Smart Band, which sells for P12,690.
