    I appreciate that this has a heart rate monitor, a vibrating alarm, and a pedometer. I simply wish I could take it swimming as that's an important part of my personal fitness regimen. Other than that, it fits well and looks nice. I definitely have to swap it out for a nice watch when I dress professionally or for a black tie event. There are other fitness trackers that are more sleek, but have fewer or different features. So, it's a give-and-take.

    The fitbit is a good way to track your steps, your heart rate and your flights of stairs. Good product.

    I've tried Garmin, Jawbone, and Apple Watch...but Fitbit Charge HR is still the simplest and best fitness tracking wearable I've used. Charge HR easily provides all the information I want but most importantly it gives continueous heart-rate.

    I really like the ChargeHR...its a trainer on the wrist to hold me accountable. The HeartRate can be a bit off, as I was wearing my Polar just to be sure. So, the user should be aware of that. Also, the ChargeHR is great to measure activities such as walking, jogging or hiking, but really not so good at activities SPIN. This is where I noticed my heart rate off by as much as 50 beats. However, that is not why I purchased the Charge HR so for me it works great! You won't be disappointed.

    My watch has been great for keeping me moving and sharing analytics on my movement. Being able to set up weekly or weekend challenges with friends and/or family has been a lot of fun. I don't really use the food tracking piece but sounds cool. Fitbit commented on having some issues with the operating system so it occasionally takes a long time to update. Overall I'm pleased with this purchase and bought another one for my best friend.

    I have owned 4 different styles of Fitbits. The CHARGE HR is my most favorite one yet. While all of its functions are absolutely necessary, I am especially pleased with the heartrate monitor portion. It is ACCURATE every time for I check my heartrate manually as well - and it's PERFECT. Have loved ALL my Fitbits, but this one is honestly the BEST one yet. It's worth every penny spent !

    Got this for my wife for her birthday. To our dismay it wouldn't charge properly out of the box. -1 Star The exchange was fine, the new FitBit works great. Tracks heart rate pretty accurately without a chest strap. Also tracks flights of stairs, calories burned, ETC. The small size fits her perfectly with a lot of extra wristband to spare. Also, she likes purple, so it's good that it comes in that color. Other colors are pretty limited.

    The charge hr is a very good product for what it is meant to do. The only drawback is the battery life doesn't seem to be as long as boasted. There are ways to turn certain things off or to auto to help prolong the life but some of the features you have to alter are part of the appeal or added convenience of the charge. As for the charge hr I am happy with it and would recommend it to others just wish the battery lasted a little longer.

    My wife and I bought the HR for it's heart rate tracking capability. It works reasonably well most of the time - but there are situations where it doesn't provide accurate measurement (on our exercise bike - perhaps due to hand/wrist orientation). The tracker also overestimates steps taken/stairs climbed under certain situations. For example - it indicates that steps are being taken while driving to the golf course in our golf cart - perhaps due to vibration? One final issue we had was that the small band and large band have no overlap in terms of wrist size - and my wife is right at the break point between the two - so she had to choose either the small band and risk it being too tight - or the large band and having a lot of excess band. It would be better if Fitbit had the two bands overlap in wrist size by 1/4 inch.

    I have only had the Fitbit charge hr for a few days now but so far I am really liking it. It does everything I wanted it for and I am pleasently surprise at how easy it is to use. My only complaint with it so far is that even though I don't notice it on most of the time, sometimes it starts to annoy my wrist but I think that's just because I don't normally like things on my wrist. Overall, I really like it and I like the Fitbit app as well. I check my stats constantly!

    The tracker in itself is great. The sizing is what I had an issue with. I normally wear bracelets that are small, but to get an accurate reading you have to wear higher on wrist. This was unfortunately too small and I had to return. I recommend you try on at store first.

    I have enjoyed wearing the fitbit and being able to track my steps and sleep. Knowing how far or how little I have moved in one day certainly keeps me motivated. The sleep tracking seems to be pretty much on target. That too has been very helpful in letting me know how much sleep I am getting during the night. I have not been keeping up with other aspects of the watch but plan to in the future....just getting used to a few things at a time..

    I love it because it can track sleep and estimates the amount of calories you burn just in your daily activities along with any exercise. I do not love the fact that steps are counted with your arm instead of at your waist. I think it may overestimate the number of steps. Love that it can replace a watch completely and is so simple to set up and track both on the device and on the app. Overall I would say it is well worth the money.

    The only problem I have is with battery life. Although the maker says 5 days, it seems that battery last a couple of days. I bought because I had Fitbit and battery life was only a couple of days and battery had to be removed to charge. I thought this would be better because battery does not need to be removed and the battery life would be longer.
