    Overall good tracker, some small downsides

    Not really a fan of having to turn/flick the wrist to activate the time. At the least, the ability to change how long the display stays on before automatically shutting off would be nice. Other than that seems to work accurately enough to be useful!

    Great for tracking walking and heart rate

    This was an upgrade for me from the Charge 2. I love that I can now switch out the band based on my outfit and needs. I bought a silicon band from Amazon which is much more comfortable for sleeping and working at the keyboard than the OEM band. The rose color is very nice, as is the blue-gray band (large and small are both included in the package). I have had this for 4 months and have not had problems getting it to sync with the FitBit app on my phone, nor have I had problems charging it. I need to charge this maybe every 5-7 days, which is great. It syncs easily to the GPS on my phone via Bluetooth, so it can map where I have walked, and the Noom app on my phone syncs with the FitBit app to track my steps. I subtracted a star because the screen sustained a scratch the first week I owned it. I live a low-key life and hadn't had any accidents with the Charge, but apparently just casually banging my hand on a surface left a scratch.

    This Fitbit Charge 3 is slightly better than the Charge 2. The face screen is lit brighter and it appears the numbers are larger so that helps when you’re over 50! I haven’t tested the waterproof (water submergible) feature yet but that is a cool feature. My 2 stopped working after a year. So far so good on the 3.

    I purchased the Fitbit 3 for my wife's birthday and have been in good standing since the purchase. The setup was easy and simple. So easy that she insisted on completing the profile settings independent of any guidance from yours truly. And, she nailed it on the first go round!!

    I received as a present to replace a Fitbit 2. It is easier to use and has a lot of enhancements to monitor my activity. The ability to swipe between screens is very helpful. The water resistance feature makes it available while swimming or even in the shower. The battery seems to have a longer life between charges.

    This is a replacement for a charge 2 that lasted 17months. Used BB coverage to replace. I like the options, and tracking a number of different things, sleep, steps active... Have found fitbit products have a limited life span. They last a year yo 18 months.

    I upgraded to this fitness tracker from the Fitbit Alta (non HR) and I enjoy the added functionality. I can track my runs with GPS (with phone), get pace during the run, and can see my heartrate. It may not be as flashy as some of the Garmin trackers, but I think the Charge 3 is enough for what I need and a fair price

    I’ve had a couple Fitbit models and switched to an Apple Watch a few months ago. I regretted it and went back with this newest version of Fitbit. Even though it’s not a smart watch, it does a much better job of tracking heart rate, activity, steps and sleep than Apple hands down.

    The Fitbit charge 3 had a sleek design that looks like just another watch but it's on so much more! Ever wonder how many miles you actually walk in a day? This will tell you that and so much more! I would buy it again if I needed too but with it being water resistant and very durable theres no need!

    Not my first fitbit. Really like the longer lasting battery, gps and design. Very comfortable. This is my second one. The first one was chewed up by our puppy. Replaced with the same color/model. Use it for my bike rides, walks and phone notifications. Very happy with it.

    I was happy with and looking for a replacement charge HR because the non-detachable band became detached from my HR currently in use. I found the Charge 3 and the price was good so I made the purchase. I haven't started using it to the fullest of its capabilities yet, but I am well pleased with it so far.

    The product came in with no damage, this is a sleek and beautiful fitness tracker. This Fitbit has made the easiest band to change straps. I like the heart rate, the sleep cycle, the waterproofing, no problem at all, and feels secure.

Only have had it for 2 days but it’s functioning as describe need to check into all features avable. So far very pleased with the purchase.

    Main reason for purchasing this model was the water proof feature. I did not really want a screen this large. Even though the screen is larger than many other models, the print is extremely small except for the time. I did not make this purchase for the time! Functioning well.

    I like it is waterproof. It still has problems reporting sleep before midnight once in a while. I've gone to bed at 9 and in the morning the time before midnight isn't reported. I bought it instead of a smartwatch because at my job smartwatches aren't allowed in many areas.

    I had a Fitbit HR for a few years until it broke from age and regular use. I do like the bigger screen and the ability to read texts but it took a hit within 30 days and broke. Screen went black but it was still tracking movement etc. The older ones were much more durable.

    I was between the iWatch and this Charge 3, waited until the release date and bought the 3 because it was cheaper and finally water proof. Works most the time but after only a week or so it wouldn’t Sync. Finally got it to reset and worked again. I travel a lot and the alarm clocks do not properly change with the time zone or there is a deeper issue there because my alarms go off at the wrong time while showing the time I selected. Alarms worked great at first but the first business trip around the world I noticed the alarms off by three or so hours after my Charge 3 updated the time zone. Worst part is the time zone was more than 3 hours off the original. So I’ve had a enough bugs to not be thrilled with my purchase. Wish I woulda spent another $150 on the iWatch.

    I love this tracker because it's not pretending to be something it's not: this is a fitness tracker, not a smartwatch. It delivers detailed health data and does a wonderful job if it. There aren't many features, but in my opinion, that's okay. It does exactly as it promises, and the battery life is excellent.

    It's been a couple of months now and my wife absolutely loves it. Has a larger screen but not too big like the one size up. Has way more functionality than the previous models plus its waterproof. You can download apps but dont mistake it for a gear or apple watch, that's a higher level/price equipment.
