Garmin's latest fitness tracker, the Cirqa Smart Band, is a screen-free health companion that's set to challenge the market leader, Whoop. With a subscription-free model, Garmin offers a compelling alternative to the subscription-based Whoop. The Cirqa Smart Band is designed for all-day wear, boasting 10 days of battery life and a comfortable fabric band in seven colors. It tracks various biometrics, including heart rate, Body Battery energy monitoring, Pulse Ox, stress, and skin temperature, all accessible through the Garmin Connect app. The Cirqa also provides insights into women's health and cycles, compatible with the Natural Cycles app. This device is a strong contender in the fitness tracker space, offering a comprehensive feature set without the recurring subscription fees associated with Whoop. The Cirqa Smart Band is available for pre-order at $199.99, and it will be interesting to see how consumers respond to this new entrant in the market.
