I\u2019ve been a loyal Fitbit wearer for the last four years because of its user-friendly features and the fact that it tracks everything I need \u2014 without a subscription.<\/p>\n

But the one downside I can\u2019t ignore is the look of the watch itself. It\u2019s undeniably \u201csmartwatch-y,\u201d and it often feels bulky when I\u2019m wearing anything other than activewear.<\/p>\n

Then I came across a smartwatch that looks nothing like the typical models<\/a> on the market: the Withings ScanWatch Hybrid Smartwatch<\/a> Nova<\/a>. It\u2019s sleek, minimal, and honestly passes for a designer watch.<\/p>\n

It still delivers everything I care about \u2014 step, sleep, and movement tracking, plus impressive health insights<\/a> \u2014 but in a design that actually complements every outfit.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for a device that keeps you accountable and elevates your style<\/a>, this is it.<\/p>\n

And I\u2019m not the only raving about this unique design, \u201cthe Scanwatch Nova strikes the right balance, it has the style of a dress watch<\/a> while simultaneously providing core health and fitness features,\u201d says one shopper.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s an awesome hybrid watch \u2014 looks premium too<\/a>,\u201d adds another.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been road-testing the silver strap with a black face for the last month, but both this model and the sleek gold-silver version are currently on offer for up to 25 per cent off at Amazon Australia.<\/a><\/p>\n

I had been used to popping both my phone and Fitbit on charge before bed, which meant I often missed out on tracking my sleep.<\/p>\n

But after reading multiple reviews raving about the battery life<\/a>, I figured I\u2019d skip the overnight charge and let it do its thing while I slept.<\/p>\n

The results? An in-depth insight into my sleep<\/a>, breaking down light, deep and REM. It\u2019s surprisingly comfortable to wear too \u2014 zero discomfort and no bright lights interrupting my snooze.<\/p>\n

Unlike a typical Fitbit screen, the Withings Nova Brilliant<\/a> uses a subtle dial to show your step count and heart rate, keeping everything tucked away and out of sight.<\/p>\n

Looking like a classic timepiece, all the health tracking is subtle and understated, which means there\u2019s never any reason to take it off my wrist.<\/p>\n

So far I\u2019ve taken it swimming, running, walking and even into the shower<\/a> \u2014 confident that it\u2019s secure on my wrist and fully water-resistant.<\/p>\n

While it is a little more on the expensive side, it\u2019s a tech-savvy choice for anyone who wants fitness motivation without the gadget-y look.<\/p>\n

Now 20 per cent off at Amazon Australia, it\u2019s a steal at just $598.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I\u2019ve been a loyal Fitbit wearer for the last four years because of its user-friendly features and the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":341250,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[180319,180320,64,63,12193,1625,7240,3863,105],"class_list":{"0":"post-341249","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-7you","9":"tag-7you-technology","10":"tag-au","11":"tag-australia","12":"tag-explore-more","13":"tag-lifestyle","14":"tag-shopping","15":"tag-sponsored-content","16":"tag-technology"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/341249","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=341249"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/341249\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/341250"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=341249"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=341249"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=341249"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
