I usually don't leave comments. But man, the amount of work and extensive research you put into your videos are really something to admire, thank you for the great info!
I own a Fitbit Sense 2 and a Fitbit Charge 5. I can confirm, they are tracking sleep different. Even on fitness, they are different. What I recognized, if they are not fitted on the right spot, they're showing divergent data. That's why I'm a little sceptic, when you're wearing three or more at the same time. Anyway, I do enjoy your channel, keep going.
As an experiment, I wore an Amazfit, Polar Unite, Fitbit Sense 2, and Samsung 4 AND Muse S and Dreem 2 headbands all at the same time for six months. The EEG headbands were consistent in their somnographs with the only differences being in the amount of REM sleep. The watches were ALWAYS wrong, especially start times. The discrepancies were huge. The Amazfit was the worst and I stopped wearing it within a month. The only way to compare the somnographs was to align the start times, which I took from the Dreem 2. Conclusion: you cannot rely on smart watches for somnographs. It's a real shame that the Dreem 2 was taken out of the consumer market. The Muse headbands company is focused on meditation (always unreliable). There is no affordable wearable EEG sleep monitor on the market.
Please do more Xiaomi devices. In my country (Brazil) Fitbit, whoopi or Google are not accessible, so we end up using mostly Xiaomi and Xiaomi owned brands such as Redmi, Amazfit and Haylou. Thank you for such a high quality content!
@@Snowmans.Cradle Conflicting info. Apple series 8 shows another thing, Fitbit shows another. Ultrahuman Air another still. 🥴 I use Fitbits above ankle (under sock) for more accurate miles/steps only now .
The minute my fitbit stopped working, came to watch your videos before buying my next tracking device. The amount of research you present in each of your videos is impressive and is helping consumers make informed choices. Thank you!
Nice Rob, I give this video ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for sleep content! I'm really excited that we are moving in to new product season, hope Google doesn't quit on the Fitbit trackers.
My comment probably gets buried under so many other comments. I'll post this again : please also test Ultrahuman Ring Air! Having said that - this video is super detailed and helpful! Kudos to you :)
Always loved your reviews, thank you for taking things to an even further level. Hoping to see reviews on the oneplus watch 2, newest withings offerings and whatever else might come out in the future. Keep being awesome :D
First of all, thank you so much for been doing review with true data sets. I know we are all waiting for your HUAWEI WATCH FIT 3!! Haha... By the way, I am not sure if you can do some HONOR's review as they MIGHT have really good products in the marketing as well...eg, Honor Watch 4, Honor Choice Haylou watch, Honor Band 9... Thanks!
There was a time when I used the Apple Watch 8 and the Whoop at the same time to see if I noticed a difference in the sleep tracking. I didn't attempt to keep track of it in a scientific manner but I did notice that the Apple and Whoop had different readings for deep sleep and REM sleep. It seems the Whoop fairly consistently gives a higher amount of deep sleep and REM sleep than the Apple Watch. For me it really doesn't matter which one I use. I figure that if I use one consistently and have a data point to compare to how I feel then that is what is important. Also the Whoop does a better job of putting the whole package together.
Haven't listened to the video yet. But here is my opinion and why. Whoop is great. Mostly because I've been able to wear it 24/7 for 2 years (except for showers) and it is comfortable and gives good data. I tried the Oura Ring. I thought it was good, but could it was uncomfortable, and after a month took it off and never put it back on. (Cannot be great if not comfortable.) My Apple Watch has too short a battery life, so I take it off to recharge every night.
Love these reviews. You seem very honest and share important thoughts via proper scientific articulation, which is a breath of fresh air in the field of health, so thanks a ton for that and I hope you'll stick with this! Was arguing whether I should get a tracker again, but decided against it due to my finances being limited, sleep being really bad and the fitbit I used having been very unreliable in this regard, and the other data being not very valueable or actionable. It's a bit of a bummer because I love data, tracking, optimizing stuff and so forth, but I'll stick with my quarterly health assessment (blood pressure,...) and some subjective data/reflections for now. Thanks again!
Thank you Rob! I have been following you for quite some time. I ended up buying a Fitbit that's reasonably good in sleep tracking yet within my budget. Unfortunately Google bought Fitbit and now it's messing with it. I have a feeling I will have to stop tracking my sleep because I can't afford to buy the expensive ones plus the monthly fees. If tracking my sleep caused me stress it's not worth even trying.
@@nd_otd They keep making "updates" to make the app less and less user friendly. Charts and displays have become difficult to view etc. It's a matter of time the entire app will become so user unfriendly that old Fitbit users will all jump ship, me included.
I’ve recently bought the Oura ring 3 simply because I cannot stand Apple Watch on my wrist at night. So the best wearable is the one you will wear, for me.
This a very valuable work. It must be quite time consuming while holding down a job too. I thing seeing how a fairly decent device, like the pixel 2 or Huawei GT4 has changed after a few months of updates would be a fascinating video too.

Rob what happened with the full review of Huawei band 9?
Thank you! I have an Instinct 2 and have inherited an Apple Watch SE 2022. I think my best plan is to use the Instinct for daily wear and use the AW in the evenings for workouts and sleep. I just can't stand the SE battery life!
Great job, thank you! Although I was expecting to see the Mi Watch in this review because it performed well in your test, unlike the Mi band, but unfortunately you didn't include it in the review.
First video that was recommended to me was your initial review of Apple’s Sleep tracking, and it’s good to see that we’ve sorted out that no girlfriend problem since then 😂
Many thanks Rob. Interesting. I had a Pacemaker installed a month ago. I had too low a heart rate. RHR has gone from low 40's to a floor at 50 soon to be shifted to 55 as a base. As a result, both Whoop and Oura give me very low Recovery Scores and alerts to elevated HR. I've contacted both tech supports asking if there should be some sort of adjustment, but I actually get complete waffle back. I'm thinking of giving up on Whoop as I feel it doesn't represent how I actually feel upon awaking. I'll stick to Oura as multiple reviews are extremely positive on Sleep tracking. Apple Watch or Garmin (Epix Pro) is a real dilemma. Sports tracking on Apple is not great in my opinion. I swim, pool and open water and it is so fiddly getting Apple to Pause or Stop whereas Garmin is a button press. On the other hand the HR monitoring on AW is excellent plus, if you get into trouble it's LTE for contacting help.
been waiting for your Huawei wath fit 3 review for a week already and you post another video while still teasing the watch in your wrist ! that's just cruel man
@@TheQuantifiedScientist I'll be waiting for your review for the watch fit 3 before I buy it, your the only source and RUclipsr to review watches thank you for reviews.
But since sleep is only one set of data, so unless Oura ring would pair with Garmin, no point having extra device. My garmin kind is in sync with my cpap readings.
I wear Apple watch se22 and Garmin Instinct 2 at the Same time changing Arms all of nights and they are very similar for me. The Timings of the phases are a little different but Overall numbers total are basically identical
It would be nice if the Oura Ring 2 devices can be updated with the new algorithm, right? It could even be that they are updated, but the studies were done before the update. I can't really complain about such a small piece of "e-waste" as a ring, but on principle it's nice to keep the older ones going (and they get money from subscription).
Anything that doesn't sit on the head is inaccurate for sleep stages detection. Just wear whatever you have for sleep duration. If you have extra, just buy Dreem headband.
Appreciate the content! Can you please review the accuracy of the Ring Conn 2? Esp since they're trying to go for FDA approval for detecting sleep apnea.
Since you can't get really buy a Dreeem device anymore, how does Muse S fair for sleep tracking? I noticed it was used in your previous video (with more electrodes attached).
This comment may be a little late, but I recently bought a Pixel Watch 2 (mostly based on your studies), and I'm very happy so far, but I have one question maybe you (or someone else) can help with: On the Fitbit app, there's an option for "normal" or "sensitive" sleep tracking, what's the difference and what would you recommend? I'm a light sleeper who often wakes up in the middle of the night, but on my previous Huawei Band 8 it often didn't notice I was actually awake because I wasn't moving (I guess).
Have you ever tested a Suunto watch ? i recently got one (had polar before). A lot of reviewers online said the HR tends to be not as accurate but i haven't noticed anything weird on my part. just wondering what you think. new to the channel but love all your videos so far =)
First, highly appreciate your time and effort for making those videos. I wanted to ask if you can tell where to google pixel 2 stand against apple watch?
Hey Rob can you do a video for best wearables with ECG?? I'm planning on buying Apple watch series 9, Is there any alternate wearable with equivalent or better accuracy (in terms of ECG tracker) available ??
I am still trying to figure out what fitness and sleep tracker would be best for me. The sleep tracking and ability to view the data in s sensible format is most important. For weight lifting and cycling I use the Verity sense currently and am happy with it. The Apple watch seems to be a good choice because it does more than just sleep/fitness but the Whoop appeals too because I can hide it more. The thing stopping me from the Whoop is the heart rate accuracy. So bottom line, for the Apple Watch are there now good third party apps or any other way to interpret the data? Or has Apple Health improved enough now as you have made comments in the past that the data interpretation leaves a lot to be desired. Battery life is my concern with Apple Watch. If I wear it to sleep when am I going to charge it?
Thank you for sharing! By using more than 2 wearable devices, with some statistically methodology, increase the correlational effect with the EEG results?
Hi Rob (@TheQuantifiedScientist) my spidey-senses got triggered. Great vid, your sleep reviews are the most valuable for me. I watched you spending :17 mins showing details on various manufacturers. Nothing in the video suggests that Xiaomi or Huawei are in any way competitive in sleep tracking accuracy with the other manufacturers. This is a sleep vid, right? 30% of the comments so far are "can't wait for your Huawei/Xiaomi review" of their upcoming new products. That excitement just doesn't track with what I just watched you report. Are these marketing AI-bots from the manufacturers to drum up enthusiasm for their upcoming products? Nearly none of the comments talk about Nukkuaa, EightSleep, Apple, or Oura which were all the clear winners. These commenters might not care about your video and the conclusions, or (perhaps) they are marketing bots. Thoughts?
Many asked about Huawei Watch Fit 3 because Huawei Band 9 shows (in a pretest posted in this channel) less performance than Huawei Band 8 (with 3 new firmwares after Rob's test). So, before buying the new expansive model, many would see better performance (confirmed in Rob's test).
Some of us (if not most of us) are not interested in paying subscription fees. They are deal breakers. Therefore please stop pushing the Oura Rings and investigate others like Ultrahuman Air Ring. There must be at least 3-4 other ring brands out there. I like your videos otherwise.
I notice the Apple Watch 9 is excluded from most of the data sets. Does anyone know if the sleep algorithms/technology in the Apple Watch 9 is more or less on par with the Apple Watch 8?
Idk why, but my Apple Watch never gives me more than 10% deep sleep. I’ve tried Oura and whoop and would consistently get 10%+ deep sleep and 20%+ rem sleep, but Apple Watch always gives me a very low percentage of deep and rem. It doesn’t feel right as I usually get great sleep. I’d love it to be more precise but it feels like the worst tracker I’ve tried.

Ultrahuman Air Ring. There must be at least 3-4 other ring brands out there.
I like your videos otherwise.
Any plans to test Ultrahuman Ring Air?
I seem to have the opposite with my Epix 2 Pro. Detecting too many short awake moments when I'm not awake.
Still no eeg devices like the Muse-S. I’ve been asking for years now, and it’s just the same devices over and over and over again.
Can we have a similar video for fitness tracking, sports, workouts ?
Amazing value provided here. Huge thank you for your work mate! 🙏🏼
You are the best
Thanks Cliff!
I notice the Apple Watch 9 is excluded from most of the data sets. Does anyone know if the sleep algorithms/technology in the Apple Watch 9 is more or less on par with the Apple Watch 8?
Would be nice if you could let us know how to get our hands on some eeg devices.
Idk why, but my Apple Watch never gives me more than 10% deep sleep. I’ve tried Oura and whoop and would consistently get 10%+ deep sleep and 20%+ rem sleep, but Apple Watch always gives me a very low percentage of deep and rem. It doesn’t feel right as I usually get great sleep. I’d love it to be more precise but it feels like the worst tracker I’ve tried.
Please review Ultrahuman Ring Air
16:11 Please test the 3rd party sleep apps for apple watch :)
I heard that samsung watch 6 series are going to get AI and new upgraded sleep algorythms. Could you test them all when it will be avaliable?
Alternative to the Nukkuaa App? Maybe Sleep for Android?
