There are many selling points for the Fitbit Charge 5: the good analysis, the colour display with always on and NFC. But the most important feature is the ECG: no other fitness tracker offers this and it makes the device unique. On the other hand, it lacks the music function and the step counter's floor recording.

      A matter of taste: instead of a floor counter and music control, the Charge 4 successor has a colour display that always shows the time and electrodes that examine the heart rhythm. There has never been an ECG in such a slim band, which deserves the award for top innovation.
