Bad tracking
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would not recommend this device, after the first few days I grew concerned about the numbers it was reporting so I tried 2 other devices to test this one gives incredibly inflated results.

Nonfunctional out of the box
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got the unit for someone as a gift. Powered up the unit, created an account, installed updates for 15 minutes, and then unable to get any further. The touch screen on the device was completely nonfunctional. Looked online and saw hundreds of other charge three users with similar problems. The only possible workaround requires hooking back to power and trying a reset. I’m not trying to be stuck somewhere without the cord and unable to use the touch functionality. I will not be replacing the unit after seeing all the people with the same problem online.

Loved it until...
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really loved this thing until it burned my skin. I followed all the guidelines and took good care of it but after a while I noticed some weird things...like a pain in my wrist where I was wearing it and sometimes I would feel a vibration in my wrist even when I wasn’t wearing it. Then recently a red itchy lump appeared on my wrist and I felt a burning sensation...only I could feel under my skin, not on the surface. Needless to say I won’t be wearing it ever again and won’t be wearing anything similar.

High expectations that weren't met
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to try and track my heart rate when it intermittently drops to around 40 beats per minute. It would never show anything below 60 bpm and that was a big disappointment. After about 10 days it stopped recording my heart rate and sleep hours so I returned it for a refund. Also, the the longer wrist band wasn't useable because it wouldn't stay latched. Fitbit is reputed to have the most user friendly software around, but, although I have no experience with any other brand, I didn't find it that simple to use.

Did not work-returned next day
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this item online. Shipping was fast, no problem there. I got the item for a Christmas gift for someone in my family. When we started the process of downloading and installing everything, the watch started the install and then it went completely blank. The watch froze, wouldn’t connect or restart no matter what we did. I had to return it and I bought a Garmin from Amazon! The lady at the store said she has been getting a lot of returns and thinks there’s a bad batch for sure!! I wish it was different, we have loved Fitbit over the years.

Off step
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I only gave it 2 stars because it's way off on step counting & so far I haven't found a way to calibrate. I am a Prfessional Driver & it counts steps while I'm driving down the highway.

Having trouble getting setup.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although I love my Charge 3, this purchase was a gift and it is not responding as expected in the setup process. I’m afraid I’m going to have to exchange it.

Step counting seems flawed
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The device gives you steps even if you are sitting on couch and just moving your hands or shows you climbed floor even when you are walking on a plane surface.

Fitbit charge3
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I will not own another Fitbit. This is the second one and both had issues. Turn your wrist to look at the time and it didn't come on about a third of the time. The crazy thing was always going off vibrating and flashing with reminders "only 250 more steps!!" "way to go you made 500 steps" Puleeese. Also, only owned this for 6 months and the buckle pulled out of the rubber strap rendering it unusable. Junk. I do not recommend Fitbit at all.
