I spent 10 days with the Garmin Cirqa, and it really is the Whoop-killer we were hoping for

The Garmin Cirqa is good at what it does: being a discreet screenless fitness tracker that interfaces with the comprehensive Garmin Connect app. However, there’s a small value issue here: for what it is, it’s not cheap, and I do lament that coaching features are locked behind a paywall on top of the upfront cost.Despite this, it’s definitely better value than the Whoop’s annual subscription for most users, Garmin Connect is a very detailed interface, and it’s comfortable to wear day-to-day. Its best use case is for existing Garmin users, especially cyclists, but you can definitely use this as your only tracker.

Cons

• -Relatively high price for the puck
• -Bicep band sold separately
