Silicone design and material

Its silicone body keeps it durable, lightweight, and sweatproof, but it doesn't render the tracker completely waterproof.

Keeping track of calories

The device estimates how many calories you're burning, but that's never an exact science.

GPS not included

One thing missing from the Fit Smart is a GPS to map your run, but that's not a problem if you mostly stay in the gym or you're just not a runner.
