It's a passable fitness tracker, but for running the Runtastic Orbit is too lightweight in terms of the data it shows, and the screen really isn't usable in action. Even at around £80/$110 it's not exactly a bargain...

The display is great for getting updates and for getting the time. This might seem trivial, but having a health tracker that also gives the time eliminates the need for having to carry a watch and wear two devices, which can look pretty goofy. The bracele...

The “Fitness Tracker” section of your local sporting goods store is so crowded that it looks like the early stages of the New York City Marathon: It's crowded, and we're waiting for one to stand out from the pack. The Runtastic Orbit is a late entry to th...

Clunky design and excessively large button, Communication with app was occasionally buggy, Sleep and happiness tracking seems flawed, The most interesting features aren't available yet...
The Runtastic Orbit serves two major functions at the moment: Daily activity monitor and running watch. It has the potential to be a lot more than that assuming Orbit Connect starts to be integrated further into the family of Runtastic apps. For trackin...

The Orbit tracks a number of various metrics including steps, distance, calories burned, total active minutes, sleep cycle, happiness (no joke), and, eventually, sunlight. For most of the metrics the Orbit tracks users can view their results right on the...
At around £99 the Runtastic Orbit isn't cheap. However, it is the best fitness tracker I've tried to date. That's based on the comfort of wearing the device, its level of waterproofing, and its unique charging connector. It also gets major points for an e...

If you're looking for a fitness band that's good for running, the Runtastic Orbit might well catch your eye. After our review of the Jawbone UP24 and Fitbit Flex, it's clear that while they may be called fitness bands, for serious runners they leave a lot...

The $120 Runtastic Orbit activity tracker won't wow you with beautiful industrial design. And besides its curious ambient light sensor, it doesn't innovate much beneath its squishy, rubber exterior. But the Orbit can display the data from Runtastic Pro...
The Runtastic Orbit is not a handsome wearable, and is too big to share a single wrist with a full-fledged watch, be it smart of analog. It's waterproof, so you can wear it swimming, and that's a bonus that Jawbone and Fitbit can't claim. Battery life is...
