With the release of the Withings Actvité watch came a hefty price tag of $450—but the introduction of the Actvité Pop at CES 2015 brings a much more affordable fitness tracker option to the masses.
Offering all of the same features as the device that came before, this fitness tracker rings it at only $150. The Withings Activité Pop looks deceptively traditional in its design, featuring a leather strap and a round watch face with a dial much like a regular timepiece. In addition to being able to tell time, in terms of tech, the watch has Bluetooth connectivity and an internal accelerometer. The watch is capable of syncing with the Withings' Health Mate app to track sleep, steps and your swimming activity without needing to change straps, as with its predecessor, Actvité.
