    The Fitbit HR gives me immediate feedback fory workout or just walking around. It tells me my resting heart rate as well what my heart rate is during my work out. The one thing i would improve is the battery strength. I have to remember to charge it twice per week.

    Very Cool Technology

    It's a great way to keep track of your steps, calories that you've burned, sleep, and flights of stairs you've climbed. You have to make sure you've set up your profile correctly so that it can count your calories via your activity (varies with your weight). The only issue I've experienced is a sync issue where my phone app is unable to connect to the device via bluetooth to update daily stats; but rebooting the FitBit always resolves the issue. I don't even use the active mode anymore, because it always detects when I do cardio or take the steps. The only thing that would make it better is if it could detect calories burnt while lifting weights.

    We purchased this item on Black Friday. My wife absolutely loves it! She loves the fact that she can engage in challenges with her friends. It makes meeting your goals competitive and keeps you adicted to the fitness. Great product for those who want to stick to their New Years resolution.

    So far so good> I really like it but wish that it could detect when im exercising & what I'm doing by itself. Having a hard time remembering to double click it to start tracking. Love all the activities & exercises listed but stationary bike is not among them.

    I tried a different brand which was not comfortable to wear so I went with the charge hr. Good investment. the app stores data which keeps you on track and motivated to keep going. Being new to using an activity tracker, fitbit has made it an easy learning curve.

    This is a handy little device for the fitness minded. It is easy to read, and comfortable. The process to link it to your device is a bit silly, as it tells you to go to their website to install, just to have the website tell you to download the app. Not a deal breaker, just a little FYI.

    Good step tracker. Activity tracking is good for step based activities. Works ok for stuff like ice hockey as well. Doesn't get in the way and is user friendly. Screening scratches easily so use scotch tape. Screens seem to be a common issue among trackers.

    The fit bit is pretty simple overall and can be worn right out of the box. The app and online features are nice to keep track of your progress. Also, nice to see how many steps your buddies are walking, keeps you motivated. Overall, good product for the price.

    Really helps with motivation and works pretty well the only problem I've had is the heart rate monitor sometimes does not show the heart rate other than that it's a pretty good device I got one for my 11 year old son and its helped him a lot to motivate him also.

    Both this for the sole reason of inspiring my mother to continue on her fitness journey. The fun we have with the competition features is worth it to keep her motivated. Functions are easy to use and understand only complaint is the face is easy to scratch.

    Charge HR is great. Very accurate. The only qualm is the fit. Wish there was a medium size. Got the Large and almost to the last notch. But the small was too small.

    I wanted to start running again and was looking for something that had a wrist based heart monitor, GPS and the ability to do interval training. After reviewing many different products on line, I ended up buying the Fitbit Surge. When I got it home, I found out it did not have interval training and it was very bulky, not something I would be wearing all day. So, I ended up returning it and getting the Fitbit Charge HR for all day fitness tracking and a separate Garmin watch for running. I am extremely happy with my Fitbit. The mobile app is very easy to use and gives you up to date stats on your activity. It also allows you to set goals and track other things, such as calorie intake and water consumption. These are things I never initially intended on doing, but have found to be easy and quite motivating. I am very happy with my purchase and recommend it to those looking to track their fitness levels.

    Purchased the fitbit for my wife, she loves it and loves the ability to track everything including sleep patterns. The only complaint I've heard from her is the battery life. Needs to be recharged every 2 1/2 days or so, not a big deal and she loves it otherwise. Would still buy it again

    Only complaint is the band initially came apart but was easily fixed. Otherwise it's great. Buzzes when you reach a desired goal for the day, you receive a call or have a set alarm. Heartrate seems to be on target, based on a comparison against a chest strap.

    I like the features of the HR by itself, but add another HR in the house and at work and syncing becomes a real pain in the butt. Ive returned my HR once now and the fresh one seems ok, but it took a month or so to have issues. Hopefully this one will be ok.

    I love the heart rate monitor and the sleep tracker. My only fault with the Fitbit Charge HR is how bulky it is on a female. It is probably not even an issue on males. Would love to see a gender version.

    I see how I sleep which is a major problem for me, and now I see what a problem it really is. Fitbit allows me log all my numbers to track my eating, exercising and sleeping. The only problem I have is walking using a shopping cart does not register the steps.

    For what it is, it does great. The heart rate monitor is good for resting heart rate, not necessarily for activities. I dont find the product very enticing for its price point considering other products can be had for a little more (but many more functions)

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    Bought this as a gift for my wife and she hasn't taken this the wrong way ;) Lots of functionality and says it's comfortable to wear. Went with the Large as the small seems really small and it fits fine. Amazing how it works and really makes you realize the activity you do (or don't do)
