Adafruit MSA301 3 Axis Accelerometer - Qwiic
The MSA301 is a super small and low cost triple-axis accelerometer. To make life easier so you can focus on your important work, Adafruit have taken the MSA301 and put it onto a breakout PCB along with support circuitry to let you use the accelerometer with 3.3V (Feather/Raspberry Pi) or 5V (Arduino/ Metro328) logic levels. Additionally since it speaks I2C you can easily connect it up with two wires (plus power and ground). Adafruit have even included SparkFun qwiic compatible STEMMA QT connectors for the I2C bus so you don't even need to solder. Just wire up to your favorite micro and you can use the CircuitPython/Python or Arduino drivers to easily interface with the MSA301 and get motion measurements ASAP.
