🚀 New Launches
Empatica has launched Empatica WellPD, a wrist-worn wearable that monitors Parkinson’s motor symptoms, in the US and other markets. It is a clinical-leaning product rather than a general fitness tracker, so buyers should discuss it with their care team instead of treating it as a Garmin or Apple Watch substitute.
Marty’s Take:
Wrist-based Parkinson’s tracking only helps if the person wearing it will keep it on, and that is a comfort and battery problem before it is a neurology one. Empatica WellPD is a medical product, so don’t expect it to behave like a Garmin Venu 3 or an Apple Watch Series 11. If you want everyday step and sleep data, start with our best fitness tracker picks.
