Fitbit Edge vs Xiaomi Smart Band 11 specs comparison

Fitbit Edge is the better all-round tracker if you want built-in GPS, ECG, payments and the more developed Fitbit health platform. Xiaomi Smart Band 11 is the better value option, with a larger 1.72-inch display and up to 21 days of battery life, but it lacks the Edge’s stronger navigation and health hardware.
