Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have not used a Fitbit before so this was fun trying this device out. Mine is labeled as lavender but it looks light blue to me which I like. It came in a nice easy to open box with instructions. I downloaded the app and charged the device. So far, it has kept the charge for several days so you don’t need to constantly charge this device. I am wearing it on my right wrist since I sometimes wear a watch or smart watch on my left wrist. I did not connect to the trial of coaching and at this time and I am reluctant to share my health data with the company. So far, I like this device. It keeps track of my steps in a passive way so I don’t need to engage it to record. The app also keeps track of my heart rate. It records my sleep which I really like. This strap doesn’t bother my wrist since I haven’t liked sleeping with heavier smart watches. The device is not waterproof but apparently is water resistant. The band is a soft material with a velcro strap and I don’t even feel it on my wrist. I would worry about it getting dirty when gardening or doing pottery but it is washable if the device is removed. The app is very comprehensive with any data points. There is a fitness section where you can enter your activity for recording while you do that activity. There is a workout library with short videos with instructors demonstrating how to do the activity. I can’t even list all of the many sections of this app. For the price, this is an excellent product.

I have been a fan and owner of Fitbit products since the Fitbit One, Fitbit Charge HR, Surge, Blaze, and the Charge 3. In between, I regularly used other products such as the Pebble (defunct), Basis Peak (defunct), Jawbone products (defunct), and Garmin, among others. Through it all, Fitbit has been the “gold standard” for general lifestyle, fitness, and health tracking through their products and their software…and then Google bought them! I took a break at that point to see what direction Google would take the products and software. This band is a throwback in the sense that it is just a thin strap on the wrist with no display or smart features other than an alarm, but it’s a major step forward in that it has all the health and tracking features of the more expensive options at a fraction of the price. And those hardware features go a BIG step beyond current offerings when paired with the new application and software. While some say the Fitbit app is now Google Health, I consider the Health app a completely new offering with (if you choose) integration with your medical records, lab tests, etc. This data coupled with your input about your health and conditions allows the app to provide non-medical guidance to improve your mental and physical health. The free access provides the basic data from the band, but the additional information is available through their subscription service, which is $99 per year. This cost is less than other subscription models and provides more information than some. There are multiple band options that accept the small tracking device, and all that is visible on the wrist is the band. Battery life is as expected, with about a 10% reduction per day with 24-hour wear and normal activities. There is an alarm setting in the app, including a smart alarm option to wake you up within ½ hour of your set time based on your sleep rhythm. Personally, the band vibration is not enough to wake me, but it does work for reminders during the day. I wore the Fitbit and a competitor device during my week of testing, and all of the stats were within an acceptable deviation with the exception of floor/stair counting. That is normally an issue for most trackers, but I have 3 flights of stairs in my house, and the Fitbit didn’t record any flights all week versus the other tracker, which recorded about 40% of them. There are workout options for a large variety of sports plus auto detection for most, but the device learns with you. So if it auto-detects the wrong sport, you can edit your data, and it learns from that. Since this is a device targeted towards a general user, as are all Fitbits, I’m surprised there aren’t more “around the house” options for workouts such as gardening, yard work, cleaning, etc. The food tracking built into the app has, in my opinion, done away with the need to have connected apps such as MyFitnessPal, Lose It! and others, but most still integrate. The band also has the ability to broadcast your heart rate to devices such as bicycle computers and fitness machines. The app is where the data shines and is fully customizable so you can see what’s important to you with the option of large or small data tiles. The data becomes more actionable over time, and initially there might be some missing until the software develops a baseline for items such as HRV and skin temperature variance. The bottom of the app has 4 tabs for "Today," "Fitness," "Sleep," and "Health," each providing data for those topics. The Health tab has a conversational AI interface (if you choose) that will guide you on resting, workouts, etc. I honestly have never paid for a subscription to accompany any of my devices, but the guidance provided in the first week of use has made me change my mind! While I’d normally include pictures, the band is so non-intrusive I only included one of the charger attached to the device. And I don’t want to include app screenshots due to them containing health information.

I’ve been a proud Pixel Watch owner for a long time, and overall I’ve really enjoyed it. Still, a few small annoyances have piled up over time — and the Fitbit Air has quietly solved almost all of them. The device itself is tiny and practically weightless. The nylon band adds almost nothing and secures easily with Velcro, so putting it on is effortless. You can definitely feel it on your wrist, but nowhere near the way you feel a full watch. I’m not sure how durable the band will be long-term, but since it’s replaceable, I’m not too worried. Pairing it with my Pixel phone was as simple as turning it on. Auto‑pair kicked in immediately, and it synced right into the Google Health app (formerly the Fitbit app) without any fuss. In terms of accuracy, I’ve been comparing it directly to my Pixel Watch, and the difference is surprisingly small. It tracks the essentials — steps, calories, distance, heart rate, target heart zones, respiration, SpO₂, exercise time, sleep duration, and sleep stages. Nothing fancy, but everything you actually need. What really won me over, though, is how it fits into my active life. I can climb, scramble over rocks, do bouldering, or practice parkour without worrying about scratching a screen or catching a watch on something. The Fitbit Air never gets in the way. The 7‑day battery life is another huge plus — I can wear it overnight without stressing about charging. It also gives me a break from constant notifications and lets me stay focused. And maybe my favorite part: I can wear any watch I want and still keep all my movement data. Paired with the Google Health app, the Fitbit Air offers excellent value — even if you already own a smartwatch. It’s a simple, lightweight companion that fills in the gaps without trying to replace anything.

Pros: - Comfortable even with the stock band (most watches I have to replace the band). Super lightweight - Battery life is not a worry at all, I simply charge it when I shower and I havent had to stress over battery at all - Tracking seems very accurate. - The AI coach is surprisingly helpful Cons: - The app is more cluttered than the old fitbit app and finding certain metrics can be difficult. Google has stated they're working on it. - The headlining features (being the AI coach) are locked behind a subscription, which I'm not a fan of but it does make sense.

Great product that does exactly what is should. Battery life is great and helps reduce distractions of notifications/alerts from a standard smartwatch. It is a lot skinnier and lightweight than I anticipated. I wear it to sleep too and don't even notice it. I usually just charge it every 5 days when I think about it. Never ran out of battery yet. I did sign up for the Google AI Health Coach and does have great personal health insights. Would recommend.

It's super light, compact, and it looks good. Battery has lasted about 7 days as advertised. Perfect for tracking, sleep and steps. And you get two preview the premium for a few months for free. I didn't think I could sleep with something on, but with this it's fairly easy.

The first thing you notice is how light it is. I usually have issues wearing fitness trackers to sleep because they are usually bulky and they are uncomfortable. This one is so light I don't feel it. The battery life is amazing too! A couple of things to think about: if you already have a recent fitness tracker (Apple Watch, Garmin...), you may not benefit as much from this as you think. Also, if you're really into fitness, you will find it lacking. Finally, to take full advantage of it, you may need to pay the subscription for the AI coach which is an additional cost although to be honest it's not required. Overall, of this is your first fitness tracker or if you want one without the screen to distract you, this is a very good product. Just be sure to understand the features first before jumping in.

I purchased the Fitbit air because I was tired of charging my Apple Watch daily and adding another screen to my life. I initially was looking at a Loop/Oura Ring but was turned off with the subscription base or higher price tag. The good: Fitbit air is such a cheap product to start getting you more health conscious. You barely notice it on your wrist and the battery life is great. I enjoy knowing more about my sleep data since I would never wear my Apple Watch to bed. I’m extremely happy of all the data it provides as I’m personally not looking for a 100% accuracy. My intent was to get more active and look at the data behind my current habits and this solves it for me The bad: the Google health app is still finicky. Since you have to start workouts and track info on the app. It does get buggy. Sometimes I wish this bad at least had the time as I have a bad habit of checking it as a watch.

Fitness tracker on your wrist have become something you see more often than not on people’s wrists but they started off very simple and grew into something very tech heavy. So Google decided to ask with the Fitbit Air, what if they were simple again? And they nailed it with this one! PROS: - Unboxing the Air it immediately shows how small and light it is. For those used to wearing an activity tracker watch, it really is a huge difference wearing something that you hardly notice is on. I really liked the look of that Velcro as well and it’s easy to take it on and off your wrist. - At the time of this review, I have worn the Fitbit 24/7 for over a week. And true to what is says, after 1 week it notified me I had about 15% charge left so I charged it but I wondered if I could have lasted closer to 8 days with it on! - Along with the battery, I can confirm it’s super comfortable to wear day and night! I had no problem when I had it on throughout the day, or working out, or swimming/showering, or sleeping. Really it was quite comfortable and like I said I forgot it was on me most of the time which is nice. - The appeal of course of a screen less fitness tracker is that it’s something that will track you throughout the day and night without being a constant buzzing reminder. And this does an amazing job of that! For it to be screen less means it has to have a great app, and the “Google Health” app really is great! It’s simple but yet packed with feature. - So the app takes about 7 days to figure out your fitness load but other than that will show you the steps you have taken per day, what your readiness is based on your sleep, and how well you slept. A main portion of the app is to talk about how your day is going which is nice that it explains things to you in different terms. - You can use this tracker without a subscription or you can pay for the AI fitness coach and it’s a great way to chat with the app to understand what you can do to be healthier! I found the coach to be a really useful feature and nice that its there when you need it but not in your face constantly. - On sleep tracking, I thought it was wonderful for sleep. It shows you your totals and what stages you are in and how it compares to other people in your range. - Lastly of course is that I thought this was a very good fitness tracker! It seemed really accurate on my steps and anytime I opened the app the fitness coach would give me suggestions on things I could do to get my activity up for the day. It does a good job showing trends and heart rates and calories burned as well, just giving you that overall view of how much or how little you are moving each day which is exactly what I want! CONS: - It does not track stairs climbed - There is no GPS built in either - I would like the vibration functionality to be able to be used for phone calls (and maybe it does on google phones, I was using an iPhone) BOTTOM LINE: - The Google Fitbit Air is a screen less fitness tracker that costs $99. I wanted to reemphasize that because you are getting a ton of features and quality for a tracker in a small price. Yes you have some trade off by not having a screen but that is sort of the point! This is for people that want a simple tracker that does a great job 24/7 and you don’t feel like is keeping you attached to screens all day. From my experience, I think its been an awesome fitness companion and does mostly everything I want in a very easy to use package!

The Google Fitbit Air is an excellent, lightweight activity tracker. Having last used the Fitbit Alta about 10 years ago, I was curious to what’s changed since and how the Fitbit Air would do with my primary devices, an iPhone and Apple Watch. Band The Fitbit Air is thin, although on my small wrists it looked a little more raised than in product photos. Putting on the Fitbit Air with its fabric loop was fast - the four small velcro patches kept everything together securely. As for the color, I expected the band to be more of a black shade, but it seemed much more grey in person. That being said, personally for me I don’t prefer fabric loops and wish there was an option to start with the silicone variants. The first few hours had me scratching at my wrist at times, and when I accidentally ran the faucet over it while in the kitchen, it soaked up water easily - I had to remove Fitbit Air for a few minutes because the band felt soggy. Battery life The battery life is excellent - I wore it every day (except at bedtime), and it dropped about 6-10% every 24 hours for the past 4 days. Charger The Fitbit Air uses a proprietary cable with a USB-C end, which means that it will be another cable to pack when I need to go on a trip. Hopefully there will be an adapter alternative later on (3rd party or not), though depending on the time away from home, a charger might not be needed at all thanks to the long battery life. Pairing and App Initially I had a little trouble logging into my old Fitbit account in the iOS Google Health app but after some force closing and restarting the app I was able to log in. Pairing the Fitbit Air to the iPhone was quick, and I was happy to find that the Google Health app was uncluttered and easy to navigate. Alarms The Fitbit Air does not have notification or movement goal alerts, and alarms for it can only be set in the Google Health app (it does not sync with the phone’s native alarm clock). The vibration can be set to low or high. iOS Compatibility and Activity Tracking In the iOS version of the Google Health app, stats varied depending on which devices were being used. For example: - For daily step counts, Google Health showed Fitbit Air stats only - it did not appear to ‘ingest’ the steps logged by iOS devices/Apple Health unless the Fitbit Air was not being worn. - Wearing the Apple Watch and Fitbit Air on each wrist and then starting and ending a workout on both resulted in slightly different stats on their respective apps. - Starting and ending a workout on the Apple Watch while wearing the Fitbit Air initially displayed only Apple Watch/Health data in the Google Health app. About 30 minutes later, Google Health overwrote that information with data collected from the Fitbit Air through its ‘Activity Detection’ feature. An issue I came across was that sometimes the Fitbit Air did not accurately detect when the workout started and ended, leaving me to manually correct the times in the Google Health app afterwards. Overall though, the Google Fitbit Air works well with iOS devices. It's an excellent choice for anyone looking for a light, minimal activity tracker.

My main daily watch is a Galaxy Watch 8, and outside of the health tracking it does I’ve never thought much about this space. I saw the Google Fitbit Air and decided to give it a shot. At this price point, and for what it can do. I was pleasantly surprised. Packaging was simple and minimal, like the device itself. You had the tracker, the band, the proprietary charging cable, and the usual paperwork. Setting this up was a breeze, did so with both a Samsung and a Google phone just to check. There were no issues, and I am assuming it would be the same case for an iPhone. The first thing that stood out to me was how light and comfortable it was to wear the Fitbit Air. It was so comfortable that at times I forgot it was there, which was great as it allowed me to use this as a sleep tracker vs my Galaxy watch that was too bulky for me to go to bed with. The next thing I liked was that the Fitbit Air had a screenless design. Having no notifications, apps, nor other visual clutter, encouraged me to stay present while the Air steadily collected valuable health and fitness data in the background. One might consider this a drawback if you’re used to starting and ending tasks on your watch/ tracker but it was fine to me. You can still start and end events/sessions on your phone. I’ve tested the Fitbit Air for 5 days, and as far as I can tell, it tracks key wellness metrics such as daily activity, steps, sleep patterns, and overall movement pretty well. Much of what I saw against these metrics was in line with what I saw on my Galaxy Watch 8. The Air, also synced seamlessly and quickly with the Fitbit app for a comprehensive view of your progress against your desired goals/metrics. Within the app you also had an Ai Health coach( I received a 3 month trial). It was pretty nifty having something on had that was personalized to you and already has access to your metrics to suggest possible workouts and also give subtle motivations towards you attaining your health goals. I actually like this capability and will continue to tinker with it, but I do understand that it might not be for everyone. Finally, rapid firing on other things I liked. Battery life was another strong point, I’ve used it for five nonstop before it gave a red light indication of being below 20%. I was able to push it to 6 days before recharging. The included band was great and fits well, and I await the different variants we will see online. I also like that you could use it as an alarm, when your desired time arrive it would gently vibrate and gradually intensify until you stopped it. The Fitbit Air delivers a simple and clean (KH fans will get this), distraction-free fitness tracking experience that prioritizes wellness over technology overload. It’s comfortable, cross platform compatible, and provides reliable health insights. All of this goes towards making it an excellent choice for anyone seeking a more mindful approach to staying healthy.

I have been using this Fitbit for about four weeks now, and I have been really happy with it so far. I wear it all the time because it has become such an easy way to keep track of my activity, sleep, and overall health in one place. It has been especially helpful with exercising and tracking my daily steps. Seeing my step count throughout the day motivates me to move more, go on walks, and stay consistent with my activity. I like being able to look in the app and see how active I have been instead of guessing. It also tracks my heart rate, which is helpful to keep an eye on during the day and while exercising. One of my favorite features is the sleep tracking. It shows how long I slept and helps me see my sleep patterns in the app. Since I wear it overnight, I can check how much sleep I actually got instead of just estimating. That has been very helpful for me because sleep is such an important part of feeling good and staying healthy. The app is also easy to use and has a lot of useful features. You can log what you are eating, track your activity, see your heart rate, review your sleep, and look at everything together in one place. It gives you the information you need to keep up with your health and make sure you are staying on track. Another thing I really like is that it does not take long to charge at all. From what I have noticed, it only takes around an hour to fully charge, which is great because I wear it so often. I do not have to leave it off for a long time or wait all day for it to charge. Overall, I think this Fitbit is a great fitness tracker. It has been helping me track my steps, exercise, heart rate, sleep, and eating habits for the past few weeks. It is comfortable enough to wear all the time, charges quickly, and gives me a lot of helpful information in the app. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants an easy way to stay more aware of their activity, sleep, and health.

The age of removing distractions and simplifying our digital lives are up on us and the Google Fitbit Air is front and center of that movement. Harkening back to the early days of fitness trackers it ditches the screen and notifications to focus on one thing and one thing only, Health; both physical and mental. Sticking to the basics is what this is all about and it does that well. Focusing on exercise activity, sleep wellness, heart rate, Sp02 (blood oxygen level), and skin temp seems to be fairly accurate. I always think there is some margin for error, but not as bad as my past Samsung smartwatches. The included arm band Google calls Performance as it is very breathable, made from recycled materials and offers a velcro like closure system to get the best fit for your wrist. There are 2 other band styles sold separately, Active and Elevated. The Active is a traditional watch band style made of silicone with a sport clasp. The Elevated mimics the Performance design but swaps the build material for silicone and different color clasps. It also appears to be micro-adjustable as the clasp is magnetic. The Performance and Elevated are both one size fits all (130mm-210mm) and the Active band has two options for size. After using a traditional smartwatch for some years now and dabbling with a smartring, I can honestly I say I prefer the activity tracker to the smartring. I’m on the fence about leaving my smartwatch features as they are step removed from pulling out the phone for some basic things ( I still have my original calculator watch!). The battery life alone could convert me at 8 days of usage it is at 49%, so a solid 2 weeks is to be expected with normal wearing and with regular health activity I would say Google’s estimate of charging weekly should be accurate. While airport hopping across the globe does give you some good step counting, its not the same as good high bpm activity. Already having the Pixel 9 Pro, the device was paired fairly quickly and up and running out of the box after going through all the Health App permissions. I can highly recommend it if you are in the market for a simple fitness tracker from a USA brand.

I am not a big fan of watches, but was always curious about the whoop. The only thing that set me off was the whoop being a subscription. Once this device came out I knew I would appreciate it. The battery life is great, and charges quickly. The metrics and health data are nice, but I like how I can link other apps and sync the data all into one.

This tracker is for folks who want more information than their smart watch can provide. It is very light weight and comfortable since it can be easily adjusted. It pairs along with the new revamped Google Health app which provides lots of great information, I can't wait for more accessories to be released.

But it doesn't [show the time], and I'm okay with that overall. I'll start by saying "GET IT", seriously this thing is awesome. I love it. Super light weight, long lasting battery, looks nice in my opinion, and it seems like it's super easy to swap out bands. The app is pretty handy too. But like all things, nothing's perfect! For naps, it gets the start time wrong, and doesn't combine it for a total score or total sleep hours. What do I mean by that? My little daughter had a nightmare and woke me up after staying up with my buddies playing online games, and I spent a good hour or so getting her back to sleep. I probably should have just let her sleep with us, but my wife had to leave early the next day. Long story short, I got like around 4 hours of sleep. The app definitely let me know I didn't do a good job, but when my wife got back, let her know I needed a nap. I went down for the nap, it didn't start tracking my nap for about 45 mins after. My bed tracked it sooner. It also has them as two different events, which is accurate, but I wish it'd still show my total sleep for that day. As for the fitness stuff, I enjoy the videos, they're a nice touch, I also liked the auto workout tracking. I went on a walk, and it popped up in the app perfectly. Even had a nice GPS map that followed. However it's definitely not onboard. So you have to have your phone with you. I was mowing my lawn, and it somehow figured out I was mowing. I don't know how it did that, but honestly amazing! I guess it uses Google Map data, and knew I wasn't going far and my hands were in a 'bike' position? I don't know, but I was pleasantly surprised! Long story short, I'm super happy with this, and highly recommend it!

The device is good , UI should improve, the AI coach does repeated mistakes of unable to catch diff between yogurt mayo cream sauce . There a lot of scope to improve. If google thinks it has found a price bracket between whoop then they will face user exit. The silicon band is good , but if your wrist size is huge then you have only the option of cloth band. Silicon band is comfortable.

love the unique style to this fitness tracker. it’s designed to not bother you on your wrist, and to have you check your insights directly on your phone.

Switched from Apple Watch to this so I can wear a real watch. Product is great does everything i want It to do. AI so far is good but you have to provide it input like a conversation. It’s not a miracle worker so you actually have to put effort and data into the AI to be useful long term. Device is comfortable. Best Buy messed up my pre order and didn’t provide the active band. After a short fight i got a $35 gift card to purchase it. Only complaints i have Are for Best Buy.

So very light, You don't even know you are wearing a health track. This connects with all my other health apps and devices. The only con is it doesn't do blood pressure. Otherwise it's awesome
