Why all the hatred about this update?

I just bought the Alta HR as an upgrade from my Alta and I like it. Yeah it's slightly, and I mean slightly, larger but geez they fit a HR sensor in there. I am not having any issues with screen tap sensitivity that some are complaining about. My steps are spot on with a known route that I take so I can't sympathize with others having issues. Honestly I'm happy with the purchase and if I come across something that I think you all should know about before buying I will update this review but it works well and battery lasts about as long as my original Alta.

I purchased this item as a gift for my mother. I’ve had a Fitbit Alta for nearly a year and thought she would like it too. She loves and appreciates it. I love her Fitbit Alta HR as well and will likely upgrade soon. The key differences in the two Alta models are that the newer model (HR) measures heart rate and has capacity to give more details about sleep patterns. My mother who just turned 74 is encouraged to walk more to meet daily goals and really likes that there are apps that sync her Fitbit to her ®weight watchers membership program. Finally we both love the rose gold color.

I bought the Alta HR for wife. She likes watches that are slim and have a relatively small face. However, with all that this Alta HR does it's perfect for her. She has teamed up with her friend to start exercising, and eating better to lose weight. She can now track her eating and walking. She loves the fact that she can track not only how many steps she is taking but also where they are walking to keep pushing their walking distance. This has been the best watch I have bought for her.

I love my Fitbit Alta HR! It fits much more comfortably on my wrist than the Fitbit HR and does practically everything the HR did! I love wearing big chunky bracelets, and the Alta doesn't interfere with them. Also,I've found a couple features that weren't available in my FB HR. I find the hourly activity reminders to be hugely beneficial and I love how the Alta HR receives displays text messages as well as incoming calls! I would have rated this product a 5 except for the challenges with the display in bright sunlight....everything else is a 5!

I bought one for my daughter for being promoted to the 2nd Grade. She was so excited when she received it. The color was vibrant and the band can adjust to any size. She always competes with her brother so she's getting her steps in!!!

Questioni see where it is compatable with smartphones...do you have to have a smartphone for this to work?
Asked 5 years ago by rachael75.
- Answer Yes, a smartphone is much preferred although it is true the screen seems pretty nice. The smarthone provides a blue tooth connection that allows you to download the data that has been tracked. And the Smartphone app is where you really get the ability to review and understand the information the fitbit has been gathering. Using the fitbit ulta without a smartphone would leave you missing out on most of the neat functionality.
