10 Best Sleep Trackers in 2019

Everyone associates the Fitbit Charge 2 as primarily a piece of wearable tech designed solely as a fitness tracker, but along with tracking your steps, heart rate, and workouts, it’s also awesome as a sleep monitor. The PurePulse feature automatically tracks heart rate and also recognizes exactly when you drift off to the land of nod for an accurate sleep reading. Furthermore, it eliminates the feeling of wanting to smash your phone against a wall every morning by waking you up with a gentle, silent and vibrating alarm that eases you out of sleep, instead of tearing you from your slumber like some sadistic experiment in stress and detachment issues.

The Beautyrest Sleeptracker Monitor is one of the best examples of non-wearable tech for tracking and collecting data on your sleep. Instead of wrapped around your wrist, it’s placed under the mattress and works by recording the shifting, rolling, and occasional disturbance to provide you with all the info you need upon waking up. Unlike some models of sleep tracker available, it can be set so that it registers only your movements and not your partners, or even any pets that decide to join you in the night, giving you highly personalized sleep data and sleep coaching to help you get the best night’s sleep possible.

We always love it when we can provide a little bit of variety in our lists and this Motiv Ring Fitness Sleep and Heart Rate Tracker is something that proves that more than anything else. Worn neither on wrist nor stored under your memory foam mattress, instead, you place it around your finger, and collect readings from there. This design ensures durability and keeps it from catching on protruding objects around the home and office. But you probably want to know how well it works. Its placement tracks your movement 24/7 in a way that you almost forget it’s there, while the Motiv App displays useful info on your sleep habits and allows you to make changes based on what you see.

Our premium choice for the best sleep monitor is the Emfit QS. While it’s primarily designed for elite athletes, it still operates satisfactorily as a sleep tracker, and due to its quality offers a wide variety of features that help contribute to teaching you how to get a better night’s rest. The REM sleep tracker along with deep sleep sensors work just as effectively as heart rate and recovery monitors, and an added bonus for it is that you don’t need to strap anything to you. Working entirely contact-free, you’ve offered a freedom of movement that you don’t get with wearable tech and it fits unseen and unfelt under the mattress, always watching but never interfering.

Another Fitbit, this time the Versa Smart Watch, which provides a different sort of design than the classic look, but is still mightily useful as a sleep monitor watch. Like other Fitbit and general smartwatch products, this tracks your activity all day from the moment you wake up all the way up until, well, the moment you wake up the next day. It can split your sleep cycle into stages, recognizing where you’re in a deep slumber, where you’re dreaming and when is the optimum time to wake you up. This data is then seamlessly transferred into the app and allows you to check out and make changes to your sleep habits. Be sure to also check out our list of the best inflatable air mattresses for more great items like this.

Nokia may have fallen depressingly off the deep end since the glory years of the 3310, but they’re back and trying something different. Working together with Withing, they’ve developed the Sleep Tracking Pad, which is a sleep analyzer that slides under the mattress, monitors sleep cycles, analyzes your heart rate during slumber, and even detects snoring, so you’ll soon find out if you’re as bad as a snorer as people have always claimed. The pad is accompanied by the Nokia Health Mate app, which evaluates your sleep quality and identifies areas for improvement. To make it easy for anybody to use, it will automatically sync, which saves confusion, incorrect setup, and misreadings that results in the wrong advice being given.

The SleepScore Max sleep Improvement System is a cool, non-wearable sleep monitor device that sits on your bedside table while watching and analyzing your sleep, but not in a creepy way. It’s claimed that it will improve sleep by an average of 45 minutes, and can even set sleep goals for the day or week while providing data for your doctor to help you solve all your sleeping struggles and gives you science-based advice, all of which is pretty cool. However, there isn’t an automatic sleep tracking feature, meaning there’s quite a lot of manual input required for the most detailed feedback, that being said, it’s still useful, looks good, and as long as you remember to input everything you need to, you’re guaranteed results.

Our pick for the best sleep tracker if we’re looking purely at value is the ResMed S+ Personal Sleep Solution. This little device syncs seamlessly with either smartphone or tablet, giving you immediate information as soon as you wake up, as well as offering reasons for your sleep habits, both good and bad. This kind of information is essential for learning how you can get the best sleep possible, and features such as environmental and lifestyle analysis help contribute to a better all-around idea of what you can change for a more comfortable, undisturbed night’s sleep. It might be a little frustrating to set up for some, but the rewards are more than worth it.

Our third and final Fitbit sleep tracker watch is the Fitbit Alta HR. this is perhaps the most popular of Fitbit products, and it feels like everyone has or knows someone who’s embraced its convenience. Using the PurePulse system, it automatically recognizes when you’ve fallen to sleep and tracks sleep data, identifying different stages of sleep and collecting accurate information for your benefit. Furthermore, the connected Fitbit app displays this data in an easy-to-understand way, as well as providing info about the rest of your day too, for maximum analysis.

Finally, we’ve come to the end of the cycle, but we assure you the last 9 products have not been a blissful dream, but instead real, true, useful information, and we’re not done just yet. The Nokia Steel HR Hybrid smartwatch combines excellent sleep tracking with useful day-to-day data collection to provide you with an all-in-one piece of wearable tech. The sleep cycle analysis is crucial for finding out just where you’re losing the most sleep, while the vibrating alarm encourages you to wake up, instead of demanding you get out of bed right this minute, giving you a more natural wake up call that doesn’t feel like you’ve been robbed of precious minutes. Additionally, the Free Health Mate app collects and stores info for you to view whenever you like, meaning you can keep track of what you need, even though the Steel HR is happy to do the hard work for you. What teamwork, hey?
