FitBit or Apple Watch? Other Suggestions?

OK, I know there's probably a big difference between a FitBit and an Apple Watch but I wanted to know what experiences anyone has had with either one or if you can suggest something other than these two.

I don't know about the watch because I don't want to have to pay for service on it, like a cell phone. My question is do you have to get a data plan, etc. for the watch? That would eliminate it for me.

Any suggestions would be great!

no you don't need a data plan.

it comes down to what are you going to do with the watch.

do you want to listen to music, ?
do you want to answer your phone on the watch?
Do you want to see your heart rate on the watch.
Do you want to get a record of your sleep activity.

it's very hard to reply to messages on the watch.
Fitbit doesn't have that, it does alert you to when you get a new message.

If you don't want to spend $150 to start, I could trade you something for my fitbit Versa. I don't wear the thing because I always always forget to plug it in..

I hate that. If interested let me know. I just got the Versa this year and it's sitting right now on the the that charges it.

I'd get a lower price fitbit before investing in that apple watch.. I paid $400 when they came out and I'd never do it again.
