For the six generations of the Apple Watch there are now bracelets like a dime a dozen. Elegant, robust and sporty ribbons that can be worn in a wide variety of situations. If you want to use the smartwatch as a sports watch for jogging, surfing or swimming, you will find a huge selection of comfortable and functional sports bracelets. We have that on our smartwatch Apple Watch Tried the Sport Loop in the test. Is this watch band one of the most popular, and rightly so?

Everyone who does a lot of sports and their smartwatch as Sports Watch It has not been that easy to use a really good bracelet for that Apple Watch to find that also looks chic and is suitable for everyday use. On the contrary: if you didn't want to compromise, you needed a separate bracelet for every occasion. A chic leather bracelet or mesh bracelet for the office, a fabric bracelet for leisure, a bracelet for travel, one for that Jog familiar with the Apple Watch and one made of rubber for the workout.

Especially if the smartwatch is used as an outdoor watch and heart rate monitor, you should use a robust sports bracelet for your wearable. We've probably had a dozen third party and manufacturer original straps over the years Apple collected myself. The nice thing is: All bracelets fit from the first generation of Apple Watch to Apple Watch Series 8 - and even on the Apple Watch Ultra.

These include a (highly recommended) double leather bracelet, a Milanese bracelet and various sports bracelets that fit more or less well. By the way, these are also highly recommended Apple Watch trail-loop and Apple Watch Alpine loop, both of which not only to the Apple Watch Ultra fit, but also to the normal model. None of these products really met all of our needs and we would probably have bought ten more bracelets if one product hadn't finally combined all the capabilities: this Apple Watch Sport loop. We ordered the original 59 euro wristband directly from the manufacturer and have since put it through its paces, especially during sports.

Apple Watch Sport Loop Test – What are the criteria for the test report?

So much should be said in advance: The Sport Loop from Apple We were impressed from the first moment and proved to be a worthwhile purchase for our favorite sports and holiday gadget. Especially with that Smartwatch on the road The comfortable and robust bracelet scores across the board. However, if you want to buy it, you should also be aware of the (few) weaknesses.

So much should be said in advance: The Sport Loop from Apple We fell in love with it from the first moment and it has proven to be a worthwhile purchase for our favorite sports and holiday gadget.

I'm currently not using it anymore because I also have one Apple Watch Incredibly I switched to Trail Loop. But the Sport Loop is still recommended for the normal one Apple Watch Model because it is so soft and comfortable. We have it in terms of comfort, sportiness such as with the Apple Watch while surfing and SUP, suitability for everyday use, material and wear tested and looked at what possible alternatives to the Apple Watch Sport Loop is available for your smart wristwatch.

1. Sport Loop: Comfort is important

The Apple Watch Sport Loop is soft and light. That says everything about the comfort of the belt. If you are looking for a bracelet that you can hardly feel on your wrist, you are clearly making the right choice. None of our other bracelets are as light as the Sport Loop. When it comes to comfort Smartwatch Bracelet therefore the highest score.

2. Sportiness of the Sport Loop: As the name suggests ..

We have that Bracelet really tormented: worn every day during sport, have the Sport Loop together Apple Watch worn in the sauna (at your own risk!) and take the Uhr with the chic loop only to sleep. In sports (especially jogging) that is Apple Watch Sport Loop simply unbeatable. It's soft and above all breathable. With the Velcro fastener, it can be adjusted very quickly so that, for example, health data such as heart rate can be reliably recorded.

A huge advantage, for example, compared to the conventional sports wristband made of fluoroelastomer, which can not be adjusted continuously and therefore only fits roughly. This makes the bracelet the first choice for anyone looking for theirs Apple Watch want to use while swimming and jogging. We even use the Sport Loop with it Apple Watch in the sauna (caution, at your own risk!). In many types of water sports and also as a sailor's watch, the Apple Watch Can be used wonderfully with the Sport Loop.

The watch is still not suitable for scuba diving. You have to buy a corresponding diving watch. But the configuration of smartwatch and nylon bracelet is definitely dynamic. As the name suggests: That Apple Watch Sport Loop is ideal for sport and is the right choice for active athletes.

3. Suitability for everyday use: Apple Watch Sports bracelet for all occasions?

Apple Watch Sport loop test experiences test report sports bracelet

Until we do that Apple Watch Sport Loop have increased, we have the tapes several times a day Apple Watch changed. From leather to sport to Milanese - and back. That came to an end with the nylon loop. Because the band is so comfortable and convenient, we use it all day long in every situation. In its simple black, the watch strap is not particularly noticeable, but it doesn't have to be.

The Sport Loop is simply a chic, simple bracelet that expresses rather understatement. The compatibility is also very high: you can use the Apple Watch - each in 38 mm (40mm/41mm) or 42 mm (44mm/45mm) - depending on which model you use (when ordering, make sure you choose the right size for the watch!). So that's it Apple Watch Sport Loop maybe the only watch strap you still need?

4. Material and wear and tear Apple Watch Sport Loop: What Wear?

The sport consists of a nylon fabric with two layers and has dense meshes on the inside. They provide a soft padding and at the same time allow moisture to escape to the outside. On the back there is a Velcro closure, which is firmly incorporated and holds bombproof. Only and alone to the iridescent colors you have to get used to. The black band, for example, consists of different colored structures and looks black from a distance.

The best thing about this bracelet is that so far there has been virtually no wear and tear. We use that Apple Watch Sport Loop has been in continuous operation for several months now and it still looks exactly like we took it out of the box. The nylon does not allow any fluff and there is no wear and tear where the Velcro fastener rests. The bracelet also does not discolour at all. Even aggressive salt water does that Apple Watch Sport Loop does nothing at all - but after swimming you should definitely rinse the watch and strap.

Small Update: We use that Apple Watch Sport Armband meanwhile for more than a year daily and do not deal with it just squeamishly. Still, the Sport Loop still looks almost as if it had just been taken out of the box. So that's it Material and the wear is an absolute plus for the unfortunately very expensive bracelet.

5th minus point price-performance ratio of the Apple Watch Sports wristbands: expensive for a piece of cloth

That's really cheap Apple Watch Not Sport Loop, but well worth the money. Apple Watch Sport loop test experiences test report sports bracelet
That's really cheap Apple Watch Not Sport Loop, but well worth the money.

We bought the bracelet for 59 euros (RRP) directly from the manufacturer. That's a pretty grand price for tiny pieces of fabric with plastic hinges and a small Velcro fastener. Our first thought was that if the Sport Loop had fair value, it would be around 30 euros, which in our opinion seems justified. I think that you pay the least for the material, but for the ingenious functionality that the integrated Sports Watch features the smartwatch supports. In addition, the quality of the material is right. It's really cheap Apple Watch Not Sport Loop, but well worth the money.
