    I keep track of my daily routine (heart rate, steps, sleep patterns, meditation, find my phone, check messages, check weather) really never take it off unless I am taking a shower; money well spent.

    I had this tracker, but returned it for the Charge 4. It was okay and easy to use. I just wanted GPS built in. For Apple users though, The Apple Watch 3 is a much better value.

    I’ve had mine for a month now and it works great, it is light and sometimes I forget I even have it on. The app on the iPhone is great and the best feature I like the best is the silent alarm. That will only wake you up and not the kids.

    Easy to wear 24 hours a day! I have the iWatch but it felt heavy while actually working out and the Fitbit charge is lighter and I’m not afraid of dropping or getting wet and it meets my needs for a whole lot of $$ less than the iWatch.

    This Fitbit 3 takes longer to synchronize. I like it because it has more features but I don’t know why synch-ing takes longer than the Fitbit 2. Most of the time Fitbit 2 will synch automatically.

    I got this for my dad and it’s wuicjky turned from something I thought he would wear every now and then to every day. Amazing how much stuff this thing tracks and the design is very sleek! Now time for me to get one for myself!

    Purchased for my wife. The band color and Fitbit Rose Gold color was better then expected. The larger band was used and complete, is not bulky or clunky. The Fitbit works as described. At this time, nothing negative to report.

    They definitely upgraded the Charge 2 with this Charge 3! There are so many more features, so much more user friendly, and I'm so happy I made the decision to get one. I loved my Charge 2, but the upgrades to the Charge 3 are well worth it.

    Bought this tracker at the end of August 2019. Since the beginning of this month, September 2020, it will not hold a charge for even 48 hours. Guess that is why there is a one year warranty. I have tried everything including disabling notifications to extend battery life. Even before this problem, I was disappointed in my ability to read the display while outside. Pretty expensive if you have to replace it each year.

    My first fitbit ever! Registering my Fitbit online has opened up a host of features that's viewable, all to encourage excercises of all sort, water intake, weight goals, and so much more!

    The gray part is coming off around the face of my FITBIT and my FITBIT face does not light up when i flip my wrist. It only lights up if I touch the button. Steps are not accurate at all. NOT Thrilled.

    great out of the box experience. Minimal packaging and no on board instructions. Downloaded the app and a quick sync with android phone went great. May want a tech helper to help a user with less experience.

    This Fitbit 3 is nice because it has more features than Fitbit 2. But it takes longer to synchronize with my phone. You need to open the apps to sync. It doesn’t automatically sync like Fitbit 2.

    I gave this as a gift to a lady friend of mine. She loves it. This Fitbit replace one that she was broken. She really missed it so I got her a new replacement. She is thrilled to have a Fitbit again. Beautiful watch with the white band.

    These devices were very well received, and have led to increased engagement between grandma and the grandchildren as they compete with each other for steps each week. Great motivator, and the water tolerance is a big help for our swimmer!

    I love that it tracks your heart rate all day so if you do some exercise that you actually tell Fitbit to follow, you can still see what your heart rate was during your exercise. It’s light, easy to wear, accurate, and fun!

    I bought this for my wife for Christmas and she absolutely loves it. She’s a nurse and is on her feet for 16 hours a day, so it’s good for her to see how that compares to her workouts she does during her time off. 10/10 would buy again.
