Great Watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the watch. I wear it running every day. The built in GPS allows me to track my runs. I use the heartbeat function to watch how far I run before walking, then speed up to increase pulse rate.

Great tool for daily monitoring of basics
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought it for my Hubby as a gift. It was an upgrade from his "standard fitbit" He loves this one. More info being tracked. Bigger display. He is very happy. As easy as original to set up. Only draw back that he has mentioned is that this larger one does not have "quite the same time" between needed battery recharges.

Great Watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a gift for my husband and he was so excited to learn all the functionality. He tracks his sleep, steps, heart rate. It's the perfect look and size for men. Kudos to me for this one.

A great activity tracker; wear it 24/7.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been working out at the local Y and hiking the trails of NY & NJ since the 70s and tracking miles, steps, times and calories manually, with belt mounted devices and GPS(since 1996). The Surge fitness watch was a great replacement for all the above and covers so much more such as running, walking, treadmill, weights and yoga plus provides heart rate and sleep monitoring! I would certainly recommend this watch to anyone with similar interests. The only comments I have on the design are. 1. The heart rate monitor tends to overstate heart rate from 0 to 25% from resting to full activity. 2. The watch face selections should include day as well as date & time.

The Surge has grown on me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I received the Surge as a gift, and I was skeptical about whether I would like it. Although I am technically savvy, I had some issues with getting it going. Fortunately, my super-genius nephew was there to assist. It has grown on me. The best features are that the time is easy to see, I can sync to my phone and receive notifications for texts and phone calls, and the tracking of workouts is great. I am fortunate that my company has a wellness program that allows uploads from my Fitbit. Very nice! The only thing that would be improved is the ability to program interval workouts like the Gymboss does. There is a timer, yes, but it's not the same as the Gymboss capability. Also, the Surge is very bulky and you cannot switch out the wristband. I'm getting used to that, but it so bulky that everyone notices it and asks about my Surge. Not a big deal.

Great fitness watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this thing, when I go on runs the gps is great it takes some time for it to connect but not a problem. I use it when I work out at home and it reads my heart rate with no issues.

Keeps me on track
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The FITBIT Tracker is very easy to use and reliable. It has definitely helped to keep me focused and on track since starting my fitness routine and diet. I purchased it and started using it about a month ago. I find monitoring it during the day, watching the steps and calories has definitely been a key element in keeping me motivated. Using the app on my smart phone also helps me monitor my overall performance. The app also provides weekly status reports and awards badges for achieving milestones. It has provided the added constant feedback loop I needed. Since purchasing it and using it daily, I believe it has been a major factor in my 25 pound weight loss.

Love the Concept but...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This fitbit surge is everything I wanted in a smart/sports watch, it tells you whose texting/calling, it allows you to track hiking workouts, yoga, spinning which I thought was amazing and it also tracks your HR too! My only problem with it is that it is waaaaay to bulky, I have already dinged the corner and I've only had it for a day, my sleeves do not even pull through because it is so bulky. This is definitely going back to the store and I will just have to wait to see if fitbits next model of the surge will be more sleeker. Nice try tho fitbit!

I enjoy wearing it and all that it does.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would never think to buy a Fitbit for myself and received the Surge fitness watch as a gift. I really enjoy wearing it. I find myself, pushing to take so-many steps a day. I like knowing how much sleep I really get every night. I like seeing my messages at a glance and who is calling me without looking at my phone. The only down fall is that I have to take it off to charge it.

Love my FitBit
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So for the past two years, I had another wristband tracker and it started to give me a lot of problems. So, I talked to a few of my friends and asked them what they had. Everyone told me that they loved their FitBit. I did some research and found out that I liked the Surge the best for various reasons. Since I bought it, I have been real pleased with it. I love the fact that its a watch, step counter, calorie burn counter, etc. It's a lot more interactive than my last wristband. The Surge actually keeps me motivated throughout the day to keep moving and having challenges with friends on the app makes that purchase even more priceless.

Easy to read-BIG letters
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My first Fitbit Surge worked about 2 weeks and then went dead. I tired several different times to charge it but it would go dead in 30 seconds after being unhooked from the charger. I took it back to Best Buy and they gave me a new one without any hesitations. The service was GREAT! My second Fitbit Surge is working great and I haven't had any problems with it. Very happy with product.

Good Tracker - Accurate - But I got the SKIN rash
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thank goodness I have Elite Plus... I will end up returning mine! I love this band and I love what it does, unfortunately, looks like I will be returning because of the skin rashes! I ended up getting one on each wrist. I shower regularly (twice a day) and I clean this thing with peroxide... I teach fitness daily at 24 and I depend on this device for all my stats... my husband has the same band and he hasn't gotten a rash at all, he's had his for almost a year... odd.

Oh yeah!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really like Fitbit Syrge watch, easy to pair with iPad and iPhone. Comfortable to wear and since I work out 6 days a week really tracks exercise, heartbeat, calories in/out. Also like the fact it tracks sleep and can use it as silent alarm. The only problem if you wear it 24/7 the potential for getting a rash dso only wear it about 12 hours a day or night but not 24 hours.

love it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because it says you will have to charge every 5 days well that is not really true. If you workout, walk long distnce, treadmill, etc. then you will need to charge about every 3 days. One other thing is if you use the treadmill you will need to keep it in your pocket to get the correct steps. Wearing it will short your step count.
