Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought this Charge 5 to replace my Charge 3, which I had for quite a few years. Charge 5 tracks all kinds of things, like EKG and sleep in addition to the usual steps, miles, calories, etc. Also goes over a week on a full charge.

I bought this to replace an ageing Garmin. Screen is excellent, touch screen responsive, and the silicon band is comfortable. Battery life is great - I charge it once a week. Does everything I need - activity tracking, sleep tracking, steps, heart rate, and displays alerts from my iPhone etc. Only downsides I’ve found are (1) just like the Garmin, this uses a proprietary charging cable, so it’s something else to carry around to charge it when travelling and (2) there’s a lot of “this functionality will be available soon” in the app and webpage. All in all, I’m happy with this purchase.

I have had this Fitbit since October 2021 and it still works perfectly. I like it because of its slim design. It gives me everything I need in a fitness device. It accurately tracks my fitness and I love the GPS.

Love everything the display it helps me keep track of activity so comfortable I can sleep in it lets me know how long I slept. Heart rate displayed. It stays charged for about a week or more.

This would be my 5th Fitbit product and I continue to recommend it. I've been using different Fitbit products since 2016 and quality of these devices have been consistent. It's been as reliable as a non-medical fitness device can get and I'm satisfied with the relatively accurate but consistent data I'm able to generate from this device. I'm involved in combat sport so they also hold up against the rigorous training. You don't need to baby this device. If you're just looking for an easy to use fitness tracker and don't need to data to be super accurate, the Charge series is great. If your priority is style or data accuracy, got for some other devices that are on the market. One side note, if you have sensitive skin like me, I would strong recommend getting the sports band that has a breathable material. It's less irritating for your skin. The stock band you get in the initial purchase is not breathable and your skin can get irritated more regularly.

Product works pretty well, recording steps, sleep, exercise. Syncing with phone is a little unreliable. It's annoying when the app says "syncing is taking a while: sit tight," with no help to fix the problem. Keeps trying to sell a premium subscription but never really tells me what additional functionality premuim gives. I understood this product to be waterproof. My previous Charge 5 stopped working after I got it wet while potting plants. This is my second one.

Great battery life. It is a great quality product for the price. The only thing I would change about the charge 5 is the lack of a weather app. Otherwise is a rather positive experience. Recommended if you want a lightweight tracker.

Loved that i could get this right away... it's been 2.5 years. Live this fitbit battery life, size and app work nicely for what i needed. Excellent product... but I'm not sure it's going to make 3 years.

Battery life is better than my old Fitbit and screen easier to read. Would have liked more instructions included in the packaging.

After returning the the Versa 4 because it failed miserably… I purchased the Charge 5. It has been working flawlessly. There has been no battery draining issue. GPS has worked without any issues. Huge improvements from my Charge 2. I recommend the Charge 5.

Nice, slim and unecumbering. Decent battery life. Excellent battery life compared to iWatch. Seems to count steps accurately. The lack of buttons is both confusing and simplistic. Just takes a bit to get use to.

Great fitness tracker. I bought this to replace an older Fitbit which had fewer bells and whistles. The Charge 5 detects your heart rate and can also do an EKG and EDG scans. You also have the ability to link a credit card to the watch for payments, plus you can read text messages If your watch is linked to your phone. It can also track sleep data. Getting a daily readiness score requires a premium membership— a 6 month one came with my Fitbit. Not a huge fan of the band— it irritates my wrist

It is for sure the best product and value for money. It works perfectly fine and it’s sleek design doesn’t makes you feel uncomfortable at all. Very light weight product rhat makes it more easy to catry all the time

I have always been a Garmin person, but after getting this Fitbit Charge 5, I regret not looking into Fitbit earlier. I just like to keep track of steps, heart rate, get notifications, and sleep habits, and the Charge 5 fit my needs.

I am coming from a charge 4 and I’m so happy with my upgrade! The band is very comfortable, the OS is smooth, it’s in color, and it has more advanced tracking. I would recommend upgrading from an old fitness tracker. It’s worth it!

Initial impressions are pretty good. It looks nice. It fits nice. I wore it sleeping the first tonight and I didn't notice it was even on. It has a lot more sensors and data collection then i anticipated. But that's good. These devices have made progress over the years. Only thing off the bat I'm wary about is the Fitbit premium membership. You get 6 months free at first, but after that it's $80 a year. And I can't really see a ton of use in the product without this membership. It would essentially be a step counter without it. So I'll update my review over time if things change on my impression.

I've used a lot of different smart watches / fitness trackers over the last few years and found myself coming back to the Fitbit Charge. At the end of the day, I realized I didn't want a smart watch. Im not glued to my phone and wear regular mechanical watches anyway. The Charge 5 is small and sleek, giving the look of a medium faced bracelet all while providing the benefit of every fitnees tracker out there. There are two things that could be better. 1) the vibrate on alarms is very weak. I know that's because of the size of the device, but the Charge 3 really packed a punch for its size. And 2) there isnt an altimeter so it doesnt track flights of stairs.

I like the large colored numbers which make it easy to read. It wakes easy and is easy to use. The band causes a reaction on my wrist so I had to change it.

I love this Fitbit! It has all the features I actually use. The sleep tracking feature and Oxygen level are great to have. The amount of information I get on the phone app from this Fitbit is amazing. Battery lasts me about 5 days, but I play with it a lot since I have only had it 3 weeks.

I love my new Fitbit. I use it to track my sleep as well as my steps and have found that it has provided me a gateway to more activity and motivated me to change my routine to help get a better night’s sleep.
