    I love the Fitbit Charge 3. With a variety of bands you can dress it up or down. I chose this one because it is water resistant enough to wear while doing dishes, in the shower or swimming. Besides the steps, I really like that it tracks your sleep. It does occasionally miss flights of stairs, but that's the only con I've noticed.

    Upgrade Fitbit given to me by my husband for a birthday gift. Waterproof and pretty much the same as the charge2. The Band gets dirty way too easily--I ended up buying a different band. This 'special' edition' was not necessarily worth the extra money. Pluses: Easier to change the bands than charge 2 and waterproof.

    Great, but... Android picky

    The FitBit Charge 3 is well built, and it comes with BOTH size watchbands, so no messing around with what size to buy. This special edition has a lavender band in addition to the black plastic generic bands. Only thing is- if you want to monkey around with different face settings on the unit, it is picky. Apple users get a free pass; not so with Android users. If you have a "lower end" Android, like JV3 or JV7, or Moto G4, G5 plus...you cannot change the face settings without it locking up in a permanent update state. You have to resurrect an old Samsung, S4, S5, etc and download the FitBit app on the old Samsung from the PlayStore. THEN you can update the face in seconds. Then take your S4 and put it back in the junk drawer. Now, resync the BT on your regular Android, and it works. Their telephone tech support was helpful with that hint. After that, so far, so good.

    Great Mother's Day Gift

    This is the second Fitbit I have bought my mother. Since the first one, she has logged more than 7,300,000 steps. This new one comes with significant advancements. Heart rate, more accurate stair counts, waterproof (and pool proof), and now more stylish appearance. It is still a breeze to set-up too. She is loving it.

    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.

    I’m pleased with this device. (I was a previous Apple Watch owner.) I really appreciate the longer battery power and the helpful insights the Fitbit technology offers. The Fitbit provides key info/notifications with a sleek/efficient design. For me, it is a much better value than the Apple Watch!

    I really like my new fit bit charge. It was easy to link to the app on my phone. Not quite a month after purchase the screen stopped working. After looking online, this issue has been ongoing since release with no fix available. I had to do a hard reset. It has been working fine since.

    It's so important to keep active all day. This Charge3 helps me stay active because it vibrates when I have been seated too long. I get up and move around and get all my steps in for the day this way. I feel so much more energy throughout the day. The sleep tracking is so interesting too.

    This has been a lot of fun, I got this for my mom for her 63rd birthday. At first it was a little difficult to understand how to set it up and was having trouble connecting with her phone but once we connected the program was helpful. Its been really helping motivate my mom to be more fit conscious and its something we can talk about together. The call and texting feature is super handy and she loves the special fitpay feature. The best part is that its like having a coach or a fitness partner to keep you accountable and encourage you to having a healthier you.

    This product is perfect for monitoring heart rate and important categories while working out. I used the Apple Watch originally but the width of the watch bothered me. This one is next right! If your looking to start your heathy journey I recommend this watch!

    I love the colors of the Fitbit charge 3 limited edition. Also the purple band dries quickly and is easy to clean. Having the Fitbit receive notifications from my phone has been a lifesaver. I look forward to when I can use the “quick reply” feature with texts on my iPhone.

    I love the new Charge 3! I completely forgot it was waterproof until about 10 minutes into washing dishes, and I am thankful that it truly is waterproof! I also love the Fitbit pay, although it doesnt work at my ATM, it works everywhere else I have tried.

    Very easy to set up and use. Many options to use as you choose. I love the sleep tracking function and step counter. My only wish would be for longer battery life.....It is kind of a pain to charge every few days....since you are supposed to wear 24/7.......

    Great fitness watch! Comfortable, light, easy to use. It keeps track of everything I want. The only drawback was that every now and then, it loses sync with the phone and needs to be re-paired. Other than that, its a great device.

    Originally I had a charge 2 but then I saw the updates in the charge 3 and I immediately needed one! I got it on Black Friday so it was definitely worth the money! Also, the special edition band is way more comfortable than the regular black one!
