WHOOP 5.0/MG Activity Tracker - 12 Month Membership - Health and Fitness Wearable – 24/7 Activity and Sleep Tracker, Personalized Coaching, Menstrual Cycle Insights – 14+ Days Battery Life

Awesome wearable, delivers what is advertised. Very easy to use and tracks metrics you want.

I love my Whoopp. Been amazing purchase. Insightful and AI is generally helpful though it could use tweaking. I tried oura ring and Hume band. And of course I have Apple Watch. This is best of all of them for improving health

Great way to track sleep, strain and energy. It fits perfectly on my wrist

I would like to give this 5 stars because the product is well thought out and comprehensive in tracking health and fitness which in itself is transformative to a person's life if you're the type of person where visible metrics can motivate incremental improvements through gamification of lifestyle. I have a pet peeve though. This is a fitness tracker and every day I hit the gym, push weights, and I cannot log my reps and sets as I go. Instead I get this clunky AF UI that has to be logged AFTER the workout when I'm off on a busy day with additional conflicts due to "other detected" activities being logged for the start and end times of the workout session. Whoop UX developers... please stop the annoying UX, one of your pillars is logging a person's "strain".

I purchased this for myself as I am working toward a more healthful life and it was recommended by family members. At first, I struggled with the annual subscription $; however, after using it for over a month now, I am amazed at the amount of data and recommendations for improvements in my health. It even has what is called "Healthspan" which predicts your actual age versus chronologic age based on your health data. Each day, the user is able to recieve a summary of past 24 hours as well as what improvements can be made in the future to positively affect the user's Healthspan. I had Fitbits for at least at least 13 years and this is an absolute game changer! Well worth the $$ based on the changes I have already been able to make in just over a month's time. It is recommended to keep the tracker on at all times, including showering. It is a bit awkward recharging because the charger actually is applied to the tracker and it charges while you are on the move (I didn't know this at first). I did change the original mesh wristband for a silicone replacement because I didn't like wearing a wet band after showering. This is only a personal preference and I don't think it should be considered a negative to the overall product, but feel others should be aware. Finally, similar to Fitbit, there are communities which the user can join to encourage improvement. You can also create a new community as my family did, so we can compete against each other while obtaining positive health benefits. New communities can be shared with others by simply sending a code and, again, very easy. In my opinion this is a very well made product that can definitely lead to improved health and wellness!

Love this thing. It’s so insightful. It tells me everything I need to know about my daily biometrics. It’s a built in fitness and nutrition coach. The battery lasts for weeks a time and you don’t have to take it off to charge it, it comes with a battery pack you click on when needed. It doesn’t have a watch face so it’s not distracting. The band is a comfortable fabric that’s Water resistant and it easily adjustable. It’s easy to use and it counts everything from steps to stress and even deeper insights into lung capacity and heart rate variability. It’s my favorite purchase of the year and I could use my HSA account which was an added bonus.

This delivers an impressive blend of accuracy, comfort, and meaningful health insights. Its advanced tracking of recovery, sleep, and strain is presented in a clear and actionable way, helping me make better daily decisions without unnecessary complexity. Comfortable for continuous wear and supported by a polished, intuitive app, it stands out as a thoughtfully designed tool for anyone serious about understanding and improving their overall health and performance.

This review will be a bit more in-depth. Some quick background before I begin - I have been a fitness wearable enthusiast since the early days of Fitbit (RIP). In terms of activity, I do a lot of weightlifting, but I mix in a healthy dose of several other sports. My daily driver has been a Garmin Fenix 6 Pro for the past several years and I absolutely love that device! I bought the Whoop 5.0 Peak after a long search for a screenless wearable that would be able to continue tracking my health/fitness stats when I wore a different (non-fitness tracking) watch. The Whoop, of course, was the most expensive option on the market, which is the first strike against it. If we're being real - $250/year for a screenless device that you don't own and won't get to keep if/when you cancel is absurd. As it stands there are significantly cheaper options that you can buy once and keep for life, and these cheaper options don't sacrifice quality or tracking accuracy. My experience with the device wasn't too bad (I actually planned to give the Whoop 3 stars, but the more I thought about the price, I just couldn't justify 3 stars). The device itself is well made, and looks nice. The band also had a quality feel and look to it, but in terms of wearability - I hated the Whoop. Part of the benefit of a screenless device is to be comfortable, and almost invisible. You should forget you're wearing it, and that absolutely never happened for me. I wore my Whoop every single day for 24 hours a day during my entire trial period, and the Whoop was *incredibly* uncomfortable! This is coming from someone who has worn a large, heavy Garmin watch 24/7 for the past 3 years! In fact, my Garmin is roughly *3 times heavier* than the Whoop! Again, just stunned at how uncomfortable it was! The way that the Whoop clasps is obnoxious, and would pinch my arm hair regularly. Because of the clasping mechanism it was very difficult to adjust, and was always too tight or too loose. It would be flopping around my wrist, or it would leave a large indent in my forearm from the HR sensor. I want to stress, I have worn probably a dozen different watches and fitness trackers over the last 10 years and this was without a doubt the most uncomfortable device I've ever had attached to my arm. Another small complaint about wearability - the excess strap that is supposed to sit tucked underneath the band would constantly work itself out from underneath the band, and I thought it just looked trashy. I've seen this same thing happen with other Whoop wearers, and I just hated having to constantly fidget with it to get it tucked back underneath the band. I hate to keep banging the price drum, but for $250 PER YEAR, I can't even get a band that stays in place. I thought that the Whoop did an excellent job tracking activities. It was step for step with my Garmin, but keep in mind that watch has been released for 6 years now. This is the best Whoop has to bring to the table, and I didn't notice really any improvement in my HR tracking, step tracking, sleep tracking, HRV, calories burned from what my Garmin was already telling me. I genuinely believe that Whoop has a great fitness tracker here, but the pricepoint is just outrageous. If this device was sub $100 I'd be all over it, but $250/year and it's not showing much improvement over devices that have been on the market for half a decade - unacceptable. I also loved Whoop's app interface. I thought it was excellent. The sheer amount of data that it presents, and the way in which it presents it, is awesome. But once again, it's very difficult to justify a $250/year pricetag for a nice app interface. I thought that the charging set up was very innovative, but I just didn't enjoy wearing the Whoop in general so having to wear it while it was charging kind of just stole an excuse I would've had to get the thing off my wrist...lol! Overall, price and wearability absolutely ruined this device for me. I know that's not the case for everyone, but that was just my experience after over 700 hours of wearing the device. If this device was ~$100 to own, I might consider it. Even then, after hundreds of hours of wear I just hated having it on my wrist. To sum up, when it comes to the Whoop, the juice just ain't worth the squeeze. [P.S. In case you didn't gather from the review, it went back after the 30 days.]
