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.

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 !

It's by no means flawless but it gives a great gauge on my steps, stairs, calories burned, heart beat, sleep and more.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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..

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 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.

I purchased the HR Fitbit for my wife to track the amount of steps she was taking at work. She soon set a goal of 10,000 steps (about 5 miles) a day. she and I would walk together after work. the device motivated my wife and she has started a walking group that walks at least 10,000 steps. the fit bit has several other features although my wife mainly uses it to track her steps. It is a good piece of equipment and I would recommend it.

The Fitbit Charge HR is great for tracking activity and sleep everyday. I love that it counts my steps and active minutes everyday, and provides up-to-date motivations and weekly summaries of how I'm doing. The sleep tracker is very useful to see how much sleep I'm actually getting at night, though it's not always completely accurate but can be adjusted. The app is super easy to use and compiles all the information, including monitoring your weight and making eating plans.

I got this after I bought my husband one as a gift. It's a pretty handy little thing. It does make you more aware of how much you are or aren't moving around. I like the sleep tracking, now I know why I stay tired all the time. I rarely get 8 hours of sleep and just was not aware of that fact for some reason. Also I love the caller ID, now I can quickly tell who's calling and if it's worth digging my phone out of my pocketbook.

As a health product, it's good. But as a watch, it's not really good. The sensitivity doesn't seem work too well when trying to read the time. It does not respond half time when my arm is raised, and occasionally comes on at night and is quite bright when I'm trying to go to sleep. What I really like about it is to look at our heart rate trends. It's great at recording your heart rate and giving you more detail on your workout.
