Customer Ratings & Reviews

is accurate,easy to use,and water proof. wish the battery lasted a little longer before recharges. had a jawbone that only lasted for a few months before it died so this seems better quality. you get a fair amount of info from the wristband but you have to pay to upgrade the account to get more detailed info. if you got more detailed info without upgrading and further cost and a longer battery life I would of left a 5 star rating. all in all, it's good. the only real complaint is that certain vibrations in your hands can cause it to go to sleep. it went to sleep on me a few times just by pushing a grocery cart on rough asphalt and that throws off the readings for that day or until you realize it is in sleep mode.

I absolutely love the Fitbit Flex. I wear it everyday (accept when i have to charge it) and i don't even know i am wearing it most of the time. It is very convenient to use. The set up was super easy and fast. I downloaded the phone app and it makes it even better! You can check your status on steps taken, calories burned, how many miles you've gone (distance), and you can track your water consumption and food eaten also. You can also track your sleep so you can see how well (or not) you are sleeping at night. It's really an incredible device to have. It comes with two band in size Small and Large. The fit bit is awesome and I love it! My whole family is interested in the fitbit products now and is getting or has already got one.

I recently bought the Fitbit for my significant other, as she runs a lot and was in the market for an activity tracker. I knew it didn't track cycling, which is what I like to do, but I decided to get one anyway. Real easy to setup and sync to phone. I've stopped wearing it so often due to some of the lacking features and usefulness, but my girlfriend still uses hers everyday. It tracks steps, active time, and distance and does a pretty good job. All of the goal settings can't be done in the Android app, they have to be set on the website, which I think isn't very intuitive. Some other fitness trackers have goals that increase daily when met, which would definitely be an improvement. You can set alarms and the bracelet will vibrate, which is great for sleep since my gf and I get up at different times. I wish it had a feature where if you're sitting too long, it vibrates to get you moving(I sit at a desk all day). Social features are limited. I can track my friends steps, I can send them messages(and taunt and cheer; doesn't really serve a purpose), but that's about it. I would like to see more social features such as challenges or races. A little gamification would probably get me off my butt more often. Apart from your goal status the band doesn't tell you much else. Since it syncs to your phone, it could be possible to provide more functionality. When I'm cycling running, I keep my phone in my backpack. Would be really cool if I could double tap the fitbit to change songs while listening to music. Anyway, I'm getting longwinded. The features are on the box, and it does a good job of providing those features. I don't wear it as much because it just doesn't provide enough functionality for me personally. I know how far I cycle, and I can set goals based on laps. I don't need a band for this. It does what it says it does and does it well, but, with software updates it could do so much more. As time goes on I think there will be much better products/features in fitness trackers. I may look into the next version of the Fitbit Force, as I'm hearing that will have some of the phone notification features. I'm also waiting on reviews for the Moto 360 smartwatch, as this will have a heartmonitor, pedometer, and be able to tap into your phone's GPS. Hopefully this integrates with Google Fit and be able to track fitness goals through the smartwatch.

This product is lifechanging in that it really motivates uou 5 achieve your fitness goals. So comfortable you often forget you have it on. Lightweight with interchangeable bracelets. Really sturdy during intense workouts. Accurate, and links to other fitness apps such as my fitnesspal.com. great product!

My wife recently purchased this device with some birthday money and loves the fact that it can sync with the software on her iPhone (free download) and provide more information than a traditional pedometer. The device will also sync with a PC, too. Also, having the "screen" of the pedometer essentially on her phone allows for a sleeker, less intrusive size for the device which almost becomes fashionable. Being that it's black and goes with almost everything, and since it's so unobtrusive and almost to the point of being stylish means it's almost always on her wrist- not missing a beat (or step!) as she strives (and strides!) for her goal. The fact that this data is also shareable on her iPhone means she can share victories with others and even post her daily steps to her chosen friends in the fit bit community online. She can also post to Facebook and Twitter, if she chose as well. It's this online community, when partnered with people like her sisters and friends that also share their data, that provides thel motivation, healthy competition and fun. She can pull up the app and see how many steps they are up to for that point in the day-in nearly real-time, and it's that part that I think really provides the motivation and is the beauty of products like the fit bit flex wireless activity monitor. The quality seems high and consistent throughout, though she does have some reluctancy about the longevity of the charging device. Sometimes it requires more of a push than other times, so time will tell about that piece-but she says it's pretty inexpensive to replace if it came down to that. The sleep tracking, while not the main selling point of the device and data that is not as shareable or detailed, she finds useful and provides a glimpse into sleep patterns and the quality of rest when she awakes. There may be better dedicated sleep tracking devices out there, but if you buy it primarily as a fitness device it is a nice bonus. Overall, she is very happy and, next to her iPhone, I think is one of her favorite gadget devices that she has bought to date. Motivational, shareable, fashionable and fun- she is very pleased and I love to see the friendly competition (and sharing is optional, too). Keep up the great work, guys!

I love this thing. It supports me when I am successful and judges me when I fail. The battery life lasts for days and charges super fast. I really wish Fitbit would make different bands other than the clunky thick ones and it does discolor a bit but if you are wearing it as a fashion statement then you're doing it wrong. Also if you are really working out the way you probably should then the discoloration means you are just a beast! It talks really well with the Aria scale and everything syncs to the "dashboard" on the site and with the app (I have an Android OS). No issues, the site doesn't crash or go down for maintenance much. I like that it buzzes when I reach my goal. Kinda freaky until you get used to it. Also - easy to clean. I really like the sleep function and that if you forget to turn it on or off, you can still accurately add the sleep duration manually. They send you a weekly synopsis that's nifty. It graphically explains how awesome you are or maybe not so awesome. I like it. I'll keep it. I'll pretend that it makes me cool.

I like this tracker for keeping stats on my steps taken, calories burned and goals among other things. I am very active throughout the week with my job and working out at the gym and tracking my every movement keeps me motivated to stay in shape. The sleep tracking piece is also very cool. The only negative I have is the clasp that keeps the band attached. I have a very physical job as a delivery man and I lost my first band just after 1 day at work. It must have gotten caught up in my sleeve or the cuff of my jacket and got knocked off and I lost it. Probably in someones front yard. Luckily Fitbit sent me a new one as as courtesy which was very nice. Now I keep a wrist sweatband on top of the fitbit while I'm working so it keeps it in place and it doesn't fall off. So far so good.

Great product for the money. It will track your steps, sleep, food, water intake, and active minutes. It is easy to sync and use the data. The only downside to it is when it is charging ,which is quick you can not use it.

Wrist band is light weight and comfortable. Easy to sync and read. Tracks steps well without a lot of extra steps added due to movement of arm. Like that you can track sleep, food,water exercise and steps all in one place.

This flex was purchased for my wife for Christmas and I got the Charge. The flex is smaller and looks better on the female wrist. You don't get the detail that you get with the Charge and you have to tell the Flex when you are going to sleep as opposed to the Charge that intuitively knows. She is able to check things on her iPhone. she is pretty much happy with it but sometimes wishes she had the features of the Charge. She teaches first grade and was always curious as to how much walking she did during the day. Now she knows and it is really not too hard for her to reach that 10,000 steps.

I really love the fitbit. Both my husband and I have one. It tracks both your activity and sleep. It's helped me figure out my sleep patterns and it motivates me to set activity goals for myself and meet them. It's very easy to use and waterproof so I never have to take it off when I swim.

I have worn my Fitbit every day since purchasing, only taking it off to charge. It keeps me motivated to get in more steps each day, it's great to check my progress at the end of the day, it monitors my sleep during the night and wakes me in the morning. Would recommend highly!

Easy to set up & start moving. Band is lightweight & doesnt irritate the skin. Wonderful being able to sync to phone & keeps me motivated to reach 10,000 steps daily. Had it 3 weeks now & have reached my highest at 29,047 steps ( had a Half - Marathon that day!). Love this

I really like the concept of the fitbit. It helps make me accountable for the number of steps I take in a day. (Hey the fridge to the couch is exercise!) My only concern is that sometimes I feel it tracks to many steps, other times not enough. I think it's probably pretty close when averaged out. I can 'cheat the system' by swinging my arms real fast. Yes, I know it defeats the purpose, but we all need a little self confidence boost from time to time. I like the sleep tracking feature. It is neat to wake up and have a visual graphic of how terrible I slept. Gives me reassurance that I'm not insane, just sleep deprived. I like the silent alarm. Of course if you have your wrist sitting on a hollow or 'tin' surface, it's anything but silent. People will stare, but that's fine. It is a helpful reminder, but it's kind of like tying a string around your finger when the buzzer goes off. "Hey what's this string here for!?!" Lastly, I do have to say the lights can be bright in the dark, and flash far too often. We were at a concert and I was dancing, and the people next to me kept asking me what vendor I got the killer glow bracelet at.

I selected the FitBit Flex because I just wanted the basic choices of tracking activity, sleep and weight - and because it would sync with my IPhone. It's very lightweight, easy to charge, and durable. I especially like the weekly summary statistics that the FitBit provides.

i had gotten this for myself last year it helped me realize the number of steps taken a day, if you make the effort, you can set a desired weight, punch in your current weight, give it a timeframe of when you want to be that weight and it will tell you how many calories you need to consume a day as well as enter the foods you eat. now mind you not all t he food is there but it does let you add stuff & calories so its possible to add. anyways i gave one to my wife for christmas, now that she has one and i do we can compete on most active for the week and offer *incentives* to each other to try and outperform the other. she is left handed and i am right handed and the device lets you tell it which hand its on, alerts you when battery is low. syncs to BT capable phone OR computer. highly recommended. it does not have a display of steps on the band but it does do better then the jaba up, withings, nike fuel etc. i have researched them all and this one is the best one.

This is a great light weight and easy to use tracker. I wear it all the time and found that it really does keep an accurate record of my daily activity and my sleep patterns. I like that it is water resistant and that I don't have to take it off for a shower or in the pool

I love my FitBit Flex. It's so easy to set up. The battery last for almost a week on a single charge which is great. I love that it monitors my sleep so on nights that I feel like I slept poorly I can actually see how restless I was or wasn't. It's not bulky so I even forget that it's on and I've never had a problem with it falling off. On the FitBit app you can track your food and water consumption. You also see the number of steps, calories burned, and distance. I really can't say anything negative about it! I would love for it to have a clock so I might have to save up for the FitBit Force but for the price the Flex is the way to go!

I love my Fit Bit. It's super easy to set up, and use. I love that it keeps track of everything, plus my sleep activity. I've actually changed some of my routine and have been sleeping better with the help of this. Plus it gives me daily and weekly reports of my activity. You can check your progress through the day by using the app. I've actually gotten out of bed to get those last 200 steps in. I have dogs so we take a walk outside quick. It makes you more aware of your activity and helps motivate you to do more and to achieve that next goal. PLUS it's syncs with the MyFitness Pal app which keeps track of your daily food intake and exercise. When used together they are fantastic !! LOVE< LOVE LOVE mine !!

Love the device! Really motivates me to get active. My only dislike is no screen. I have to check my smartphone for steps, progress etc. However, Fitbit does offer a more expensive device w/ a screen.
