What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.2 for now.

Verdict

The Kogan Fortis TrackFit is an entry-level fitness tracker designed for budget-conscious users, featuring a 0.91-inch OLED display and a lightweight 108g build. It monitors essential daily metrics including steps taken, distance traveled, calories burned, and sleep quality, while offering goal-setting capabilities through the dedicated TrackFit or Purifit apps. The device is powered by a rechargeable lithium polymer battery that provides 5 to 7 days of use on a single 60-to-120-minute charge via a standard USB connection. Its main advantages are its high affordability compared to major brands and its versatile design, which allows the core unit to be worn as a wristband or placed in a clip-on pouch. However, notable drawbacks include reported inaccuracies in stride and distance estimation, limited smartphone syncing reliability for some users, and a lack of advanced features like a heart rate monitor or integrated GPS.
