In this video, I go through a full unboxing, how it compares physically to the Whoop 5.0\/MG band, Polar Loop, and Amazfit Helio. After that, I show on-wrist shots for both myself and my wife (her smaller wrist).<\/p>\n<p>Following the initial look at the hardware, I wait 24 hours before I go through the new Google Health app (which is similar to the revamped Fitbit Public Preview app over the last 6 months). I do this with data from the Fitbit Air to give you some first impressions during that 24 hours (including running and cycling data).<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll expand out this post over the rest of the day, but given it\u2019s a Saturday, I\u2019m off to keep spending time with the kiddos.
