Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really like the FitBit Ultra. I've used the BodyBugg, which is OK too and maybe a little more accurate. But the FitBit is small and the BodyBugg is very obvious. The FitBit step counter is accurate for me, anyway and so is the stair counter. It keeps me moving and it can be paired with several calorie counter-type sites such as Lose It and My Fitness Pal.

I love this little device,it has been useful and helpful in keeping track of my activity level and what I am burning verse what I am taking in. If you are working on maintaining or losing weight, want to know how far you have walked, how your sleep was, then this is your friend.

I have used FitBit for six months and bought this one for my husband, hoping he would get into it like me. We've both become more conscious of our activity levels, eating and sleep. Great device, glad to introduce it to new people, I talk about this with everyone!

I have had many pedometers and fitness apps. This one tops them all. I have the wireless connection to my computers and it updates with no problems. It tracks my activities and rewards milestones. I don't know how it does the sleep tracking, but it does and it is accurate. I highly recommend this little gadget.

I bought this to encourage myself to maintain 10,000 daily steps. It works pretty well. I'm not sure how accurate it is in relation to actual steps, but as long as you are consistently walking/running 3-4 miles each day plus normal walking, you will easily hit the 10,000 goal. I like how it automatically syncs to the website, but you need to be near your computer where the 'dock' is connected. Not a big deal. I use MyFitnessPal and Runkeeper and they work together. It also has a sleep monitor, which actually works quite well. Put it in the wristband before going to bed and it will monitor percent of time asleep and number of times you woke up (or moved I guess). Website provides a ton of data if you like that too. $99 is a bit high, but I had some rewardzone credits to burn and got it for$80. It is a good product and motivator.

I was so excited to have this item to help see how active and fit I am. I have always kept a log online of my calories and activities and I figured this could easily take its place and add a lot of knowledge about my daily activities. It does, for some things. I believe in the pedometer segment, however the calories burned section is, I believe, way way way off. First day with the fitbit and it says by 9am I have burned over 1,000 calories and that was just from getting dressed and driving to work. Hmmm....I figured maybe it just needed to be re-calibrated. So, I calibrate the walking again, which is difficult in its own respect. Again, the next day the same thing. Well, I have had the item for now almost 2 months and still it doesn't even get close to the calories. The pedometer is fairly accurate and the log online is nice...but it fails to add too much to the logs that are already online. It is nice to have it all in one log but not sure if it was worth the money when there are so many free logs that get very close to this one.

If you're reading this, you know what it does. I would just say to watch out that you get the right device from Best Buy. I purchased this through the website for store pickup, they gave me an old fitbit. They charged me the full 99 dollars as well. I had to go back that night to exchange it and they argued it was the right one and they said because it was an online purchase, I had to wait 2 more hours which would have been after closing time. They made me find the right one that said ULTRA before they would exchange it. So, make sure you see ULTRA on the box before you take it home. Other than that, the Fitbit Ultra is great!!!

I wanted a continuous health monitor and looked around for what was available. I chose the Fitbit over other well-known popular brands because it was easy to hide (instead of an arm band) and doesn't have a monthly subscription to access your information. It's great for those activities that you can't wear a heart rate monitor (martial arts) and for walking / running. It's also good for estimating the calories you need each day since you wear it all day long, even during your normal everyday activities; although, personally, I would recommend logging your food somewhere else like MyFitnessPal (the two sites sync). My only concerns is that it's not waterproof (I sweat a LOT during workouts so I made a little waterproof pouch for my Fitbit), and that it feels like it could break easily. I read a lot of reviews online of other people's breaking, but I don't clip mine on (I just tuck it into a pocket or my bra) and so far, I haven't had any problems.

When I decided to purchase a pedometer / calorie counting device I did a lot a research. There are lots of products on the market - but none even stand up to the FitBit! Many of the other personal training devices come with a much larger price tag plus a monthly subscription to their website, where FitBit gives you the website for free! The cheaper watches and pedometers don't give you the information the FitBit does. For sucess in weightloss and getting fit - use this product. Very easy to use and it's so small and discreet that you won't even feel it in your pocket.

I belong to an online fit bit group that has a friendly competition going on to see who is the most active. I really love this little gadget-it really motivates me to do ONE.MORE.STEP.

Overall meal and calorie tracking is great. I especially like the sleep data. Had no idea what little sleep I get. My husband and I compete with how many steps we've taken daily. Great instrument! I bought a couple more for friends.

This is the best pedometer I have owned. The website that stores the data is great and free. I also suggest the fitbit scale that links to the fitbit pedometer and your WIFI.

It's motivating to see all that data visualized. It's a bummer it flairs out so much at the bottom when on a belt. I lost it on the third day. I think when I took my pullover off it also pulled the fitbit of my belt. Huge plus was that fitbit replaced it.

This is a fun and great way to count all the steps you take daily. If you are a female using this product, its recommended that you clip it to the center of your bra, DON'T do it. I lost it after 1 week. I was too active one day and it slipped off on its own. Great investment, just don't lose it like me.

It is easy to set up and to use, and the online tools are very helpful.

This has helped me keep a conscious look at what my activity level is on a day to day basis. I like that it take days to run out of charge. It's also nice to have the app and the online content as well.

Great device. I use it continuously. The only time I am not using it is when it is charging. Charging time is short and charge lasts a long time.

A good, easy to use product for everyone. Integration with myfitnesspal a nice bonus

I love this little thing. It is easy to wear all day and it motivates me to keep moving. I love that it partners with MyFitnessPal.

This tool is very economical when compared to others. The q&a department is very open to customers' suggestions and have implemented some on their website since my purchase. I looked at many reviews before my purchase and am very glad of my decision.
