Customer Ratings & Reviews

Absolutely love this! Takes the place of a watch, but does so much more. Use the app with this to challenge friends to see who can get the most steps or most miles walked in a week. Gives a good baseline for how active you are and encourages you to get moving more. The only time I take it off is to shower, which is when I charge it too.

I received the Fitbit Charge HR as a gift. It is perfect for me. I like to walk and check my heart rate. It keeps track of steps, heart rate, miles walked and calories burned. It is also a watch, an added bonus. I highly recommend it for someone who wants to track these types of activities, but not anything else like swimming or bicycle riding.

I bought one of these for myself and one for my husband. We both started Atkins and I thought it would be nice to have some info on how much "exercise" we were getting. We BOTH love this thing. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to know and wants a little push to do a little better than the day before !

I upgraded from the flex and I'm so happy I did. Love that I can track my heart rate and set alarms to remind me to take medications. The app is also easy to use and a great motivator.

Overall, the fitbit + HR is a good tool when someone is trying to get back into the fitness world. It takes a little getting use to and making sure to keep it charged. There is a lot the fitbit can do for you; however plan to spend some time setting up the device. A food plan can be implemented, but the searching component takes some time to find the foods you've eaten, though is accurate once found. You can save common meals for easier access. The sleep monitor is by far the best part of this product and will help track your sleep patterns. If you don't have any need for the heart rate monitor or having the time display on your wrist, you can forgo this model for the one below it. It's also convenient that the band will display who's calling, especially when in a meeting and you don't want to be "that person" on their phone.

I like my FitBit and wear it everyday to check my heart rate at a moments notice. Like the Dashboard but wish i didnt have to go online to check my number. It would be nice to hold it locally on my Computer. the battery does not last the 5 days but will last a good while after it tells you the battery is low

I bought the Fitbit to monitor my steps, track exercise, and monitor sleep. It does all of that well but I find the device itself a bit uncomfortable to wear while sleeping. It's fairly bulky and often gets caught on the blanket or sheets. I'm still learning all of the features but its' a winner for sure

I like that you are able to see the date and time on the fitbit. Also you do not have to be syncing it to your phone since the steps are also shown on the fitbit. I like that sometimes when i am excising and the phones rings I can see who is calling me without having to find my phone. The battery life depends on how much you use your fitbit.

I have high blood pressure and I have been trying to lose weight...so I try to monitor how much walking i actually do at work....I have the stepz app on my phone....it's fairly accurate...But I have to keep it in my pocket...and I have to turn the app on and off when I'm driving...so I decided to buy the fit bit...I love it...I knew I wasn't sleeping well...but I am amazed at how little sleep I am getting....even when I think I am getting a full night sleep....and with the fit bit i don't have to worry about turning any app on or off....unless I am montering my sleep....the stairs reading is fairly accurate....for me it is off at times...but that is only because I have knee problems at this time so I walk up and down the stairs at a very slow pace which the fit bit can not always pick up on....which also another reason I purchased the fit bit....to track how many trips I make up and down the stairs at home and at work....I highly recommend the fit bit...the app you download to your phone or iPad is also a great help....I love that I can track my water and food intake....battery life is pretty good...I charge about once a week....but I sleep with my fit bit on...

EZ. Ez to use, Ez to understand, EZ to learn, EZ to customize. Purchased as a gift for my parents in their 70's. They love it! The send me their accomplishments and achievements. Sync with IPad for to monitor their sleep. Keeps them excited about staying fit. Love it!

I purchased this one for my son. It was a replacement for another brand activity bracelet. He says this one is more accurate and he likes the heart rate feature. He is getting used to not having the text message feature on this one and hopes Fitbit will include this in future models. We enjoy partnering with our other Fitbit friends!

If you buy the product make sure you purchase the warranty. It's works well, but could stop charging or the band break. Both happened to me, but it's great that I've the extended warranty. Great product for tracking your steps + sleep.

Got to a store early on a Friday morning, to ensure I could find one, as it was the only store that showed stock. Good thing I did, as 2 other guys came after me to get one, and there was only one left! Works exactly as I expected it to, pretty accurate, and easy to use!

I got this mainly because of the name brand Fitbit seems to be the go to brand everyone mentions. I used Jawbone 24 and since it didn't have HR, I really thought the Fitbit charge HR would be the perfect thing. I was wrong. First I quickly realized I don't need to see a display on the band. the info is limited to just a number and not as fun nor informative as looking at the phone app. I also found the importance of having a heart rate monitor diminish shortly after using it for 2 days. Initially it seemed really cool to be able to know what my HR was upon waking up in the morning or during the middle of the day. But believe me, after checking your HR a couple days, its not a big deal anymore. And having the clock function on the band really is not so important as I wear a watch and my phone displays time. In reference to the usefulness, the sleep tracking is not accurate as compared to Jawbone UP. For example, I knew that I woke up twice to use the bathroom but Fitbit showed that I was in deep sleep all night. I even woke them together one night to test their accuracy and for sure Fitbit was way off. And for tracking steps, it is way off, it thinks I am moving way more than I was compared to both the Jawbone and my iPhone. Regards to comfort, it is somewhat like wearing a watch to sleep because of the band's buckle. So while it fits securely on my wrist, it's not so comfortable to wear to sleep at night. What's interesting that as far as looks, when I wore the Fitbit, no one seem to have noticed or mentioned about it but when I wore the Jawbone UP, I got many compliments and several people said, "hey that looks cool, is it a FITBIT?" So looks wise, the Jawbone is no doubt the more attractive band. Finally as for the phone app, it has a nice pleasant lay out but I felt that it is too simple and plain. In conclusion, due inaccuracies, and not so comfortable, and less attractive, I cannot recommend the FITBIT.

Really like the FITBIT Charge. Yes you could always carry around a notebook and a pedometer to track your results but this makes it effortless. I am impressed at how accurate the Sleep Tracking is on this. I have discuss with other friends other activity trackers and we all agree, this is one of the BEST!

This is my first Fitbit. I waited because I wanted the HR monitor feature. I have found this to be a great tool for tracking my activity and exercise (primarily running). I highly recommend this Fitbit. The only reason I'm not giving it an Excellent rating is because I have nothing else to compare it to.

The sync process to my laptop is quick and easy - my daughter sync's to her phone with the same quick results. Never knew how many times my sleep was "restless" - good to know, and to track through the week. The heart monitor functionality is revealing, and changes based on my activity-level or when I just drank some coffee, etc.

Both my husband and I have the Fitbit Charge HR. We have found it to be a great fitness tool. Keeps you aware of your activity level and the data provides motivation to be more active. The sleep tracker is great and allows me to see how my actions or food i eat affect my sleep. We would both highly recommend this fitness tracker.

Monitors sleep, heartrate, steps and very easy to use.

So far I love my Fitbit Charge HR. They are very difficult to find but I stalked many websites before finally ordering one through Best Buy and having it shipped to the store (faster than to my home.) I've had it for about 48hrs and so far I like it! The only thing I don't like has to do with my phone and I am still working on it. It did think I was sleeping while watching a movie last night but I wasn't moving around much and was relaxed. I just deleted it off of my dashboard. Easy peasy. The band is very flexible and isn't uncomfortable to wear at all. They do recommend wearing it one finger above your wristbone and 2-3 while exercising. You might want to take that into consideration when deciding on a size. I went with Large (6.3-7.8") because the small is 5.5-6.5" and mine measured right at 6.5" I am glad I went with a large because the small would have probably been tight. It is a lot less bulky than the Polar FT4 I used to wear.
