I have the Spark 3 watch and i swear by it. My only gripe is i didnt pay extra for the Heart rate monitor but its not super important . You can even get a music version so you really have no need to carry a phone on your run . There are probably better out there but this one suits me just fine. And im never going to buy fitbit i know that much.

I'm looking to purchase the music version as I don't like the idea of carrying my phone with me. I've seen really good reviews on the TomTom in comparison with the fitbit.

I went to Currys but they were no help, just tried to sell me the Apple Watch which is well out of my price range! 😳

yeah dont spend that much . The Apple watch is a whole lot more than a fitness tracker and if thats all your after then you wont go wrong with the Spark 3 music . And Ive just bought the Taotronic bluetooth ear buds for £28 on amazon and are amazing quality. I dont think youd regret it.
