    the Fitbit Charge HR Activity Tracker is a Solid product, keeps movement count well and transmits data continuously to your mobile device when in proximity to it. stylish looking and functional. Looked at various brands and models before choosing the Fitbit Charge HR Activity Tracker. Like the fact that it gives you real time info on display verses having to download info to see how many steps you've taken. The sleep track works well, didn't know i woke so many times but it has help to pin point and address any correlations i've uncovered...eg. better pillow or minimizing activity before sleeping...etc. good cause and effect interaction. display is a little small but like the sleek look...for now.

    Love the digital read out and heart rate visual. But I wish it were waterproof and I wasn't so worried at work about washing my hands and getting it wet. I work in healthcare and wash my hands FREQUENTLY

    like, but problems with pairing / syncing

    I do like my Fitbit Charge HR, but am frustrated with synching problems. It will only pair /sync with either my smartphone (iPhone) or my computer (Mac), not both at the same time, even though I try to keep them separated. One or the other gets knocked out of the game without my doing anything. I want them both because they offer different takes on the data. I also like the instant checks with just pushing the little button on the side of the devise. The band is stiff which makes putting it on a little trying, especially to slip the tip through the little loop that holds it, which is necessary so you don't loose the thing, I'm glad I got the Charge HR model. The Fitbit has been a motivator, as I had wanted.

    I have been waiting for a wrist band that has heart rate included as well as sleep monitor. This is an excellent band that has all you need. I use it as my watch as well.

    Works great when it holds a charge. The device only worked for 3 weeks and then it wouldn't charge anymore. Glad that I got the warranty through Best Buy, took it back and walked out with a new one..

    This was the perfect fitness device for my two kids,11 and 13. They needed a watch, heart rate monitor, and the ability to track their training data. This device was capable of doing all of these. The data tracking is OK and not to complicated, There were more sophisticated devices available depending on the level of detail needed. Overall, the device was easy to operate, maintain and transferring the data collected was easily done via a Fitbit phone application. It worked great for our needs!

    The fitbit is a great way to track your health. I love seeing how many stairs I've climbed, how many miles I've walked and how many calories I've burned all on my wrist. Many othet functions can be loaded on your phone.

    works great with little to no set up. love the way it interprets my movements like showing the time when I raise my arm. Wish there was a way to split the calories burned by activity versus the normal every day calories.

    Works as advertised. Counts steps even if you use elevator though. Sleep monitor is ok, don't rely on it as absolute truths. It's a good buy to motivate you to be active, log activity, and get some sleep.

    Keeps Me In Check

    I like all the features of this fitbit HR. It holds the charge for several days, which is nice. I am still learning how to best use it. The ability to track everything you eat is wonderful! The online feature allows you to create your own food items if they don't have them listed, including the ability to add the nutritional information. I haven't figured out a way to measure my steps, however, and what I have found hasn't helped me. It seems I already have a few steps going before I get out of bed. It also makes a lot of steps when I ride my bike. All in all, it is a great device, and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in challenging themselves or just wanting to keep an eye on yourself.

    I used to use Nike fuelband, & I definitely feel like Fitbit charge HR offers much more at a lower price. However, I find myself needing to charge my band often. That's the only downside. I love the fact that I can plug in my food diary via MyFitnessPal app & it syncs with the Fitbit app. That's mostly the reason why I went with Fitbit.

    With the understanding this is not a laboratory-accurate device, it is easy to use and provides enough data with enough accuracy to allow setting of goals and seeing progress towards those goals. I would recommend it.
