    This is probably the best fitness tracker out there. Prior to owning one, I never liked to wear a watch, but the Charge 3 has been comfortable enough for me to wear pretty much 24/7. I like the apps to tracks steps, heart rate, and sleep. As a bonus, it does notify me when someone calls and any other notification I choose (ie. text, calendar, amazon, etc.) Short of an actual smartwatch, I think this is great value.

    This is a great fitness tracker and watch to wear 24x7 because of the amazing 7 day battery life. The sleep tracking and accurate heart rate tracking are plus points. The only negatives are the large form factor and quite thick if you like wearing an analog watch on your non dominant wrist. Check out the Garmin Vivosmart 4 that's a smaller form factor and has all the benefits too

    This Fitbit is my first of any fitness tracker, I got it to keep an eye on my blood pressure, but it has blown me away with all it’s easy to use features! I never miss a text or call, regardless of where my phone is, & the sleep tracker is eye opening & a great tool! It tracks my steps, & every other physical activity, shows calories burned & has reminders you can set based on your needs. I’m in love & will wear one until the end!

    I'm a big fan of Fitbit, and bought this Charge 3 after my Charge 2 died. I like the Charge 3, but it's basically a waterproof Charge 2. So, I can swim with it but otherwise it's the same, except, the are fewer clock faces to choose from with the 3. Oh, and I noticed that the Charge 3 gives me twice the credit for stairs than the Charge 2 did... I'm still trying to find out why.

    Upgraded from the Fitbit Alta. If you like a more basic fitness tracker that has some nice additions this is it. I like that it has stair counting and heart rate monitor. Also the basic notifications for calls and texts are great if you don’t need a full fledged smart watch. Battery life so far seems great, lost about 10% in a day so far.

    Exactly as advertised. All-day activity tracking..steps, distance, floors climbed, active minutes, and calories burned. Set goals in the easy-to-use app. Charge3’s reminder helps you reach that goal and celebrates when you reach them. The large touch-screen display adjusts to lighting conditions and is easy to read. Tracks swimming. Long battery usage between charges. Syncs easily to Apple products.

    I like it that I can see who's calling or texting without even looking at my phone. Because of the step count tracking, it motivates you to complete the goal! Easy to set up also. Would have given it 5 stars except for the fact that after 2 years, the display is not visible anymore and the fitbit needs to be replaced.

    I was being cheap but decided to splurge and get the Charge 3. My office location changed and I now travel 3 flights of stairs to get to my desk and having the Charge 3 keeps me motivated and inspires me to move more. Great job, Fit Bit!! Battery life is superb!! Feels great and looks great. I prefer this over the Apple Watch because I am still able to wear my designer watch on my left wrist.

    Since purchasing my fit bit charge 3, it's given me a way to review my sleep, workouts, calorie input and manage my work out intervals. It integrated with MyFitnessPal and my Nordic Max m5 and I've been really happy with the battery life. The firmware update is really slow but I would only update that if you end up needing it.

    I bought a 1st gen Fitbit years ago, wound up returning it because it wouldn't take a charge after the first battery cycle. Haven't had another until now. This is a great little device that tracks my sleep, steps, and even buzzes when I get a text or email, even appointments! I had always wanted an Apple watch, and this has made that unnecessary. Really great value.

    Christmas present for the wife

    This was a Christmas present for the wife and she loves it. My subtle way of encouraging her to get moving and count those steps and get back into shape. So far she loves it. She syncs the tracker with her iphone 8+ and monitors her steps, heartbeat and weight. She loved the tracker so much that she decided to accessorize it and change the band to a classier style. Highly recommended.

    Bought this as gift for my 70+ year old dad. It was easy to set up with an iPhone 6+, and my dad being an school "how does this blasted thing work" kind of guy he got the hang of it fairly quickly. He loves the step counter and mom likes the heart rate for him.

    Loved this Fitbit, but sadly it didn’t last. Seems like every Fitbit I buy makes it to just outside the warranty period and then mysteriously dies. It was great while it lasted, loved the way it looked and felt, just wish it would have lasted longer.

    Charge 3 Fitbit covers most of my activities

    I had a Charge 2 which I wore out and decided to replace with a Charge 3 HR. I love all the features it has. It offers tracking most every activity I do but shoveling snow. It misses some of the stairs I take, especially those in rapid succession, like running up and down stairs. I have read the tutorial on it but still cannot figure out why it breaks up the recording of my sleep, especially if I have to get up during the night. The charge 2 was better at this. Something very strange happens when I go into big box stores, it shows two hours later. Scared me that I might have lost two hours and did not know it. When I return to my car, it gives back those two hours. Whew! Otherwise, I love all the features and the fact it is waterproof for my water aerobics.

    There are not many cons to this one. I switched from a Samsung Galaxy Watch which was great but I wanted better fitness tracking and better battery life. Both are solved with this device. I get about 4-5 days battery, it is also solely geared toward fitness so I don't have to fiddle with things so much to track a workout. I also like that Fitbit is integrated with Fitbit Coach so it tracks those calories much better as well. It looks great with the white strap and has all the basic smart features I need such as messages, notifications and weather. Anything else I feel is just overkill. On the downside, I don't much care for Fitbit pay, it only supports a small handful of banks so it is useless to me. Also the screen is hard to see in direct sunlight. I did have an issue where the heart rate tracker stopped working, Fitbit support sent me a new one and all is well now.

    I really enjoy this Fitbit, especially because you can use it in the water, which is a big bonus. It's hard to read sometimes in the light and sometimes it won't synch with its app on my phone, so the date and times can be off or stats aren't saved, which is a bummer.

    Purchase this tracker for my wife as a gift. Does an excellent job of keeping track of steps and distances. Sleep function works well. Excellent for downloading. Would like to see more functions, but for more functions I would be purchasing and Apple watch. Next anniversary I will purchase and Apple watch. A good purchase
