    I loved my first Charge. It lasted 5 years. I loved the look of this one and was happy with my the performance, reliability, ease of use. Not feeling the same way about this model. Less than a year old and barely holds a battery charge for 1 day (says 5 in the product description). I think the magnet in the charging chord has something to do with it. Its almost like a secure and stable charging connection has ever happened with my device and the chord. It never lines up properly. The operating system is a bit clunky. Tapping, swiping, hold tap, double tap hold … too many options for a small interface. I prefer fit bit over other brands - Just not so happy with the performance of this particular one. Who knows…Maybe I got the lemon.

    I have used it for a month now since I got it and it was a good upgrade from my charge 3 which display died totally. Hopefully this version will last longer.

    Does everything I expected and more. The EKG feature is cool. Also I like that it gives me a sleep score. I guess I sleep more than I thought.

    This is my second fibit smart watch. Charge 5 is way better than 4 not only because it has color, but the function is much more. Highly recommend.

    We've been using Fitbit for a number of years now. The setup was easy. All information from the previous Fitbit transferred over to the new one.

    Its very difficult to turn on the screen. You have to hit the face of the watch to get it to turn on. Your alternative is having it on constantly but then the battery runs out quickly. For the price, just buy something else

    Bought two of these recently, for two of our sons. They work well and if you're not into the smartwatches they are the obvious choice.

    The device works as advertised and is almost certainly the best choice for a fitness tracker at a great value.

    Perfect device for keeping track of all day movement. Use it for setting remiders and alarms, and best when pair with fitbut premium.

    Only charges to 45% and stops charging. This was a gift that didn't get opened until a week after purchase and the charging issue didn't become apparent until after the return window expired.

    I'm sure this is a great item but, if you have sleeve tattoos or tats that go around the wrists, it will absolutely not track your sleep or heart rate. There are several "fixes " for this on discussion forums but they really do not work. Tried them.

    Not worth the money

    Waste of money. Doesn’t count the heart rate correctly. Constantly disconnects from the app and doesn’t record workouts or even the date. And definitely not worth $80 a year premium subscription!
