The right hand side of the device has a button for waking the screen up or taking you back to the home screen with swipes on the touchscreen helping you negotiate the commands. Rather than a regular watch strap design like the one seen on the Fitbit Inspire 2, for instance, you clip the band in with a press and it's not quite as secure as we'd have liked. Alongside that issue is the fact there's only one buckle to hold the remaining/loose strap to your wrist. The downside to this sturdiness is that it can be awkward to wrap around your wrist, especially if your wrists are slender. The standard one that comes with the Fitbit Inspire HR is a fairly cheap but surprisingly sturdy plastic strap. We're not massive fans of the wrist strap admittedly. Of course, it's even quicker if you have an existing Fitbit account but either option is pretty speedy. It takes minutes to unpack, place on your wrist and set up via the Fitbit app.

Much like the rest of the Fitbit range, the Fitbit Inspire HR is very easy to set up. The main features of the Fitbit Inspire HR include 24/7 heart rate monitoring, a swimproof design, 5 days of battery life, activity tracking, sleep tracking, and automatic exercise tracking for specific workout sessions. That's also for a version with a silicone band with other bands available including leather, double wrap, and stainless steel. Those times have changed and the best prices now come from third-party retailers or refurbished units. The Fitbit Inspire HR was first released in 2019, with an RRP of USD$99.95 / GBP£89.99 / AU$179.95.
