Customer Ratings & Reviews

I love being able to tracky steps, heart rate, calories burned and sleep goals. All of these are important to overall health as you age. I love it.

I'm glad I purchased this. It really helps me get a sense of my baseline activity level and how it fluctuates. It might have been better to buy the large size. Sometimes I loosen it if my arm feels sweaty. I like how it interfaces with the app. I'm not sure how it determines minutes of activity. That varies a lot even when I have a similar number of steps. On days that I'm close to my goal, I get up and move to take it over the top! I did a great job during our Disney vacation. Busy work weeks- not so much.

I decided to switch to fitbit after going through several jawbone devices in a year. I have to say I am so glad I made the switch! At first I thought it would be difficult to adjust to the larger device but after a couple of days I was use to it. Overall I would say that this activity tracker is far superior to the other trackers I've tried. The app and website are easy to use and paired with the Aria I purchased it gives a great look at my overall health and fitness. I enjoy the badges that I earn and think that is a fun touch. One of my favorite things about this tracker is that it counts steps even when you aren't able to move your arms (in my case when I'm cutting the grass or pushing a shopping cart). I have a large lawn so not getting credit for the effort it takes to cut it use to drive me crazy. This is not a problem now! I find the heart rate monitor to be off at times. Like when I'm doing p90x in my living room and feel like my heart is about to beat out of my chest and my tracker says my heart rate is only at 78 bpm, but when I go for a brisk walk it will say that my heart rate is over 140 bpm when I am barely breaking a sweat. These are really the only times that I feel like it is truly off however so I can live with it. The only other issue is the short battery life. When can we get a solar powered tracker!?! But it doesn't take long to recharge so I just keep my cable with me. Other fun touches are the silent alarm and that you can set the Tracker to vibrate and display the number of the person calling you on your cell phone. If you are looking for an affordable tracker that packs a lot of tech in highly recommend this product.

nice tracking tool for steps and heartrate. It interesting to see sleeping pattern as well. All around nice fitness motivator.

The Charge HR is good for tracking your heart rate, steps taken per day and sleep patterns. However, I do question how accurate it actually is as sometimes it seems I should have taken more "steps". I do like the feature of time of day automatically displayed when you raise your arm to view. On the negative side, in my case I had to replace the first Fitbit Charge HR I had purchased because after two charges, it would not charge again the third time. I brought it back to Best Buy where the Geek Squad looked at it and had BB replaced it with a new one. Note: the Fitbit needs to be charged every week through a USB connection.

I really like my fitbit, but I do have one issue with it. It lights up frequently, even without pressing the button or tapping the unit. I feel like this runs my battery down quicker than it should. I finally turned the tap mode off since it seemed to be oversensitive without a way to adjust the sensitivity. We'll see how much this helps battery life. The heart rate does seem to be pretty accurate. I tracked it during a run with another heart rate monitor (chest strap) and the fitbit was spot on.

Love the sleep tracker, and the HR monitor. Nice device, easy to use. App is good too for tracking your food, exercise, water intake, etc.

Bought the Fitbit Charge HR as a birthday present for my wife and she absolutely loves it! She had been interested in Fitbit products for a while, being a gym and workout fanatic, so when she received it she was thrilled. Apart from logging the number of steps, distance traveled, stairs climb the Fitbit Charge HR also manages the heart rate and - through the app on your smartphone - how many calories you've been consuming and burning! This means it is great for those wanting to push and motivate themselves for a healthier lifestyle!

I previously had the Fitbit Flex. I upgraded to the Charge HR and it's so much better. I can track my steps, distance, heart rate, floors climbed and sleep so much better with this. I'm in competition with myself every day and I love it! I'm a health and fitness fanatic, so this is perfect. Great purchase!

Main reason I wanted this one is for the HR tracking ability. App is easy to use and love the food tracking ability. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because unless I'm using the "log exercise" on app the distance tracked by FitBit itself wasn't accurate for a 3.5 mile run I do frequently. I find that when I'm short of my step goal, I am motivated to get out and achieve my goal. I use the vibrate alarm instead of alarm clock to wake up and it's just a subtle more pleasant way to wake up.

The charge he works great. It tracks sleep patterns, steps, hr, and estimated calories burned. And it looks nice and feels great to wear

Used the fitbit one for years but lost it (kept popping out of the holder). The charge HR is an improvement but with a few quirks. Tracks steps ok but sometime does not capture going up stairs, and when running it can take awhile to catch up to your stride; the one did this very well. The addition of sleep tracking and the heart rate is a plus, as well as the ability to track workouts. Although sometimes the calories burned during a workout are a little off but all in all it's a great tracker.

I've had my Fitbit HR for about a year & just got this one as a gift for my wife. The heart rate monitor logs data continuously so you can monitor sleep & exercise. My wife set up the phone link so it vibrates when the phone rings. We both think the battery could last longer between charges. I am a little skeptical of the recorded data sometimes but it seems good overall. I found that wearing the Fitbit really does make me think about my diet & work to balance calories in & out.

I love, love, love my Fitbit Charge HR! Keeps track of my steps, heart rate, sleep patterns and calories burned. Syncs with the Fitbit phone app so I can log my daily food, track exercise and weight loss goals. Has been extremely motivating for my weight loss journey. Definitely worth the investment!

I may never have researched a product quite as much as I did this one before I bought it, and I'm glad that I did. There are a couple of design flaws, such as the heart rate light flickering all night long. If it's too close to my face while I'm trying to get to sleep, it will keep me up. It can also be bulky and slide up your arm while you're trying to sleep. The battery life could also be better. They say you get about one week with "regular use" (whatever that is!), but I've found it's closer to 5 days. Fortunately I have a desk job where I can sit down and plug it in for a couple of hours. I had to turn off the all day sync to get it to last more than 4 days at a time. Also make sure that you adjust your stride length in the setting on your dashboard online, or it will not track your miles correctly. A few more color options would also be nice. Even with these little annoyances (first world problems) I would recommend the Charge HR.

Great little item. Amazing how it tracks steps, heart rate, sleep and many other things. Wish it stayed charged longer.

It displays your steps, heart rate, miles walked and calories burned right on the fit bit. It's even a watch (that was a bonus). Two reasons why I chose this fit bit was the steps taken (I'm kinda addicted) and the heart rate. I didn't know until I opened the package that it displayed it right on the band. Yay Me!!! The only thing I'm not fond of is that it has to be charged so often.

This is very helpful for lots of reasons. Sleep patterns, pulse, in-coming phone calls, steps and a watch to boot!! Great product!!

After I had to send back my Force because of the recall (skin irritation), I took a chance on this. It's just small enough to not be cumbersome when I'm working out, hiking, doing Zumba, and still look feminine. No GPS, but I don't really need that. If you're looking for something to tell you calories burned, steps taken, heart rate, miles and stairs climbed, this is for you. Not water proof but water resistant. If you need the while enchilada of waterproof and GPS, go with a Garmin (but it won't look as cute on). :)

I had wanted a Fitbit, but I thought I needed a smart phone. Then my friend told me it worked with a desk top computer, too, so I bought it. I had never enjoyed walking by myself before because I didn't have anyone to share with, but with my Fitbit HR, I can join with other friends who have the device, by way of my computer. We can have walking contests and compare our progress. The fitbit also gives rewards of badges, buzzes, and fireworks when goals are met, both daily and overall. It is so much fun!
