Not bulky at all and the screen is large enough to view data. I use reading glasses and when I'm out exercising I don't need the glasses to see data.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I own both, the charge 2 is much wider, therefore not as comfortable, it gets hot under the rubber band. The charge counts the steps faster, you reach your goal sooner.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's really not bulky (in my opinion). The display is nice and large and it's very comfortable to wear. Yes it's larger than a thin bracelet but to me it doesn't seem any bigger than wearing a time ex sport watch. I like the idea of how the band is like a watch, I had the Charge and that thing kept falling off because it wouldn't stay latched, this device has the latch like a watch so I never have to worry that it's going to fall off. Lots of features on this device, track your exercise, notifications and more - try it you will be pleasantly surprised.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.While it is a bit large, I find that it's very easy to grow accustomed to. I've only had mine for 2 months and I don't even notice I'm wearing it anymore. It's great for tracking steps, heart rate, calories burned, and more. I find that the larger screen is easier to read and can show more information than the smaller versions.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The FitBit Charge 2 is not bulky at all. It is very light-weight, and sleek. I really like the elongated screen; it is easily seen, so I can keep moving and still view my stats.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It doesn't eel bulky to me at all. Sits low to my wrist.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I am not familiar with the jawbone but my wife has a small wrist and really not big or bulky
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had to see what the jawbone up2 looked like. Yes, it is probably a little more bulky, mainly because it does not have curved lines like the jawbone picture that I saw, but I have never found it to be bothersome. I love mine!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Charge 2 is bulky (especially on a small wrist), but if you'd like a screen with the look of a bracelet, take a look at the Fitbit Alta. The only reason I went with the Charge 2 over the Alta was the buckle closure. I had the original Charge and always worried that it would come off since it was a snap closure. If that is not a concern, I'd really think you would like the Fitbit Alta, it even has interchangeable straps. The extras and what each tracker does are pretty similar for the Charge 2 and the Alta.
