Customer Ratings & Reviews

Some context... I'm a long-time Apple Watch user, but as a tech support person, I like to be familiar with Android options. I bought a $400 Pixel Watch and it stopped working after two days due to a recent update that caused many people to have broken watches. So, I purchased the Fitbit Inspire 3 as a low-cost replacement. I was curious to learn about the limitations compared to the Pixel Watch and Apple Watch. I've been very impressed with the Inspire 3. When considering the features of the Inspire 3, it's better than smartwatches costing hundreds of dollars more. Battery life is rated as 10 days, and it seems to charge quickly. My Apple Watch needs charing just about daily. The Inspire 3 is very light. Smart watches are big and bulky. I like how the Inspire 3 shows real-time heart rate at a glance. On my Apple Watch, it takes a few seconds after tapping on the heart rate icon to get a new heart rate reading displayed. I like the simple minimalist design. The GPS function of my smartphone is sufficient for tracking outdoor activities like biking and walking. So, there's no need to incorporate that into the fitness tracker which would drain the battery faster. I was originally enthusiastic about smartwatch devices, but prefer using the larger screen on my smartphone for tasks rather than squinting to see a smartwatch screen. I've used the Google Fit software on Android phones and it does a good job of tracking outdoor walks and steps with the phone's accelerometer and GPS. Having the addition of an Inspire 3 allows the smartphone to know pulse which offers a more precise insight into the activity level, and the ability to do sleep tracking. I like the default display color scheme with green accents.

Good device so far. I got this one as an upgrade to my old Charge 2. This is much more lightweight and smaller than the Charge 2. It definitely takes some getting used to in terms of the functionality because it’s pretty different than the Charge 2. But overall I like it better because it’s slim and offers similar options plus a few more than my older version. Another plus is that it stays charged for a while. If you have issues with seeing small numbers on a screen, it may not be the best fit for you. My only complaint is that there isn’t a way to set the main screen to always show your step count. It always shows time and “zone minutes” and you have to tap through to get to steps. It would be ideal if I could look at it and have the step count show first without tapping through.

I recently purchased the Fitbit Inspire 3 from Best Buy, and overall it has been a great experience. The setup through the Fitbit app was quick and easy, and the slim, lightweight design makes it comfortable to wear all day and even while sleeping. I’ve found the sleep tracking and heart rate monitoring especially useful, and the battery life is excellent—I can go over a week without charging. While the small display can be a little hard to read and it lacks built-in GPS (so I need my phone for runs), it still does a solid job tracking steps, workouts, and health stats. Best Buy’s ordering and pickup process was smooth, and I like knowing I can easily return or exchange if needed. For the price, the Inspire 3 is a reliable, user-friendly fitness tracker that works well for everyday health goals.

I’m very happy with my purchase! I’m very petite and this Fitbit “fits “ my lifestyle. I’m very active and it helps me to track daily steps, calories, heart rate. Excellent gadget! I recommend it to anyone since it a great tool and it also allows you to keep track of your sleep patterns. Over all I’m extremely happy with my purchase. I have recommended it to my siblings and colleagues .

I LOVE THIS THING!!!! Literally, it tracks sleep, heart rate, blood oxygen, tells the time. The battery lasts like nearly a week I swear, and it charges really quick. It's waterproof up to 50 meters, I swim and shower with it. I mean legit, if you just want some kind of fitness tracker that works, this thing is a STEAL. I've seen it go for 90ish on sale. GET IT!!

This is my first Fitbit, I’ve had an Apple Watch for the past few years and was really frustrated about having to charge it every single night. I got this Fitbit, because it is the newest model, it’s slim, and it is affordable. I wanted a smart watch that was slim on my wrist and did not need to be charged as often. I get at least a few days of battery life on a single charge wearing it all day and all night. Pros: long battery life, slim form factor, under $100, 6 months of Fitbit premium, has blood oxygen monitor (I was surprised), has live heart rate tracking, very accurate workout tracking, detailed sleep tracking. Cons: silicone band can give sensitive skin a rash or irritation, but that is with any silicone-style band (can easily buy other bands on Amazon), it is a little weird to navigate since the screen is narrow, but it does not hold me back at all, I mostly use the app to see results anyways. Charger uses pins, so it can be a little frustrating to line it up and get it snapped on and off. Overall, I give this Fitbit a 9.5/10. I love it a lot and would definitely recommend to friends and family who are looking for an everyday, long lasting fitness tracker.

It was a gift for my wife. She really enjoys the features of it. It lasts almost all week on a single charge. She uses it to track her sleep and steps. She has used it for swimming as well. Water lock can be a bit hard to turn off but she likes it.

Good battery life. Works as intended. Easy to use.

If you are in the market looking for an entry level Budget friendly fitness tracker to track your workouts and health metrics, Fitbit Inspire 3 is the tracker/smart watch for you. Priced just under 100$, it is one of the budget entry level tracker from the Fitbit which does not upset us. Pros: 1. Vivid colors to choose from - Morning Glow (Orange), Lilac Bliss (Purple) and Midnight Zen (Black) 2. Sleek and Lightweight - With 1.55 inches (39.32 mm) Length, 0.73 inches (18.6 mm) Width and 0.46 inches (11.75 mm) Height and just weighing 17.69 grams (0.039 lb), this is one of the thin and lightweight trackers available in the market. It feels like we are not wearing a tracker at all. Its a good choice for people who don't like wearing thick and heavy watches. 3. AMOLED color touchscreen - AMOLED color touch screen is a big aesthetic upgrade when compared to that of the Inspire 2's grayscale OLED. The display looks crystal clear and so appealing. Fitbit has done an excellent job in keeping the Watch interface simple yet stylish. The touchscreen is quite responsive to the swipes and there is not much lag as one would expect for a 100$ watch. Though the text on the display is tiny it is clear. 4. Brightness levels, Light sensor and Timeout - There are 3 brightness levels - Dim, Normal and Max. A built-in light sensor helps the screen adjust for optimal visibility based on lighting conditions. While Indoors the screen is bright and easy to read. But the same is not the case with the outdoors. There are four display timeout options: Default, Medium, Long and Always on. 5. Waterproof - Inspire 3 is Waterproof to 164 feet which means it can be worn to the pool or one doesn't need to worry about when doing rigorous workout and need not worry about the sweat. 6. Fitness and Health tracking - Inspire 3 features an accelerometer, optical heart rate monitor, and infrared sensors for overnight blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) measurements. 7. Battery - Inspire 3 has the best battery life among all the Fitbit trackers with an impressive battery life of about 8 to 9 days on an average. But it depends on the usage. For example if we turn on the Always on Display the battery will last only between 3 to 4 days. 8. Charging time - It takes about 2 hours to fully charge the tracker from 0%. There are no USB adapters provided and the USB charging cable is short. 9. Compatibility - Inspire 3 is compatible both with both Android(Android 9 and above) and iOS(iOS 14 and above). 10. Exercise app - The app supports up to six activities on the device (at a time) including Walking, Running, Biking, Swimming, Workout and Treadmill that are pre=installed. We can add the following shortcuts to our tracker via the Fitbit app - Bootcamp, Circuit training, Elliptical, Golf, Hike, Interval workout, Kickboxing, Martial arts, Outdoor workout, Pilates, Spinning, Stair climber, Tennis, Weights and Yoga. Cons: 1. Small watch screen - With the watch being tiny it comes with its own disadvantage of the screen being too small for reading the data as well as the limitation of how much of data can be viewed without scrolling. This is a known limitation that one should be aware of before buying. There are few things one have to compromise and for this watch it is definitely the screen size and amount of data one can view. Having said that still one can see the data in the Fitbit app on their phone if they want the detailed metrics. 2. Font size - Font size cannot be adjusted which might be an hinderance for someone with poor vision and sometimes it will be difficult for even the other people to read the metrics during the activity itself. 3. Outdoors - While using this watch in the outdoors in bright sunlight, glare is the biggest problem to read the text on it. 4. No SpO2 (On-demand reading) - One can get the details of the overnight SpO2 for the past few nights but it does not come with an on demand SpO2 measurement. It would have been an excellent tracker if this was included. 5. No GPS - Though this watch has plethora of features for the price we pay, it would have been nice if GPS was included. This will be a drawback only if we decide to leave the phone at home. If someone is going to carry the phone with them especially during outdoor running or workout, we really need not worry about this tracker lacking the GPS feature. Though the tracker will provide an approximate distance later when it connects with the phone, one has to keep in mind that due to the lack of GPS the measurement of distance will not be accurate. 5. Certain features like Daily Readiness Score, a metric that indicates if our body is for the workout or needs a days rest is available only with a Premium Subscription which costs $9.99 for a month or $79.99 for a year along with access to 90-day health metric trend graphs and more than 1,000 video and audio workouts, guided meditations, healthy recipes and more. Functionality 1. To Wakeup - Double tap on the screen or rotate the wrist towards the face 2. To view the Metrics - Swipe up to view the tracker's battery percentage, daily snapshot of health/fitness stats including steps, distance, Active Zone Minutes (a Fitbit metric for weekly activity tracking), hourly activity (step count that hour), heart rate, sleep, SpO2, and exercise (number of days vs. your weekly goal) 3. To access apps - Swipe left or right on the display. The Inspire 3 offers the following apps: Alarms, Exercise, Find Phone, Notifications, Relax, Settings, SpO2, and Timer. 4. To access Settings - Swipe down from the clock face, including Sleep Mode, Do Not Disturb, and Find Phone. 5. To go back to the previous screen - Swipe from left to right. 6. To quickly go back to the clock - press the haptic buttons on the left and right sides of the case. Final verdict: Costing less than 100$, this Fitbit though it is tiny and does not contain a bigger screen it packs a lot of features/information except a few of them like GPS or on demand SpO2 measurement. It all depends on what one needs. If someone wants a compact watch/tracker with minimal features then Fitbit Inspire 3 is the best bet. Instead if you want a bigger screen with more information, bigger text and additional features like GPS, ECG and SpO2 measurements then Fitbit Charge 5 for an additional 50 bucks will be a better option. Overall this tracker fits both my hand as well as my pocket. I am very pleased with the purchase as I don't really need the GPS or ECG. I would definitely recommend this tracker to anyone who is in the market for a small, budget friendly tracker that doesn't compromise on the quality or features provided.

So far pretty good! Light, water-resistant, easy to charge and battery lasts a long time! The app is user-friendly and helps me track my daily activity, sleep schedule, nutrition and water intake! Overall, a great product!

[Employee of bestbuy] I’ve been using the Fitbit Inspire 3 for a while now, and I’m really impressed with how much it offers in such a small, lightweight tracker. It’s super comfortable to wear all day and night, and I barely notice it on my wrist, even when sleeping. The display is bright and easy to read, and the tracking features cover everything I need—steps, heart rate, sleep, workouts, and stress. The sleep tracking is especially helpful, with detailed breakdowns that actually make it easy to understand my sleep patterns. Heart rate tracking has also been reliable during workouts and daily use. Battery life is a huge plus. I usually get about a week or more on one charge, which means I’m not constantly charging it like a smartwatch. It’s great for anyone who wants something low-maintenance. It doesn’t have built-in GPS, so you’ll need your phone for route tracking, but that hasn’t been an issue for me. The Fitbit app is easy to use and shows your stats clearly. While some features require Fitbit Premium, you still get plenty of useful info without paying extra. Overall, the Inspire 3 is a great choice if you want a simple, reliable fitness tracker that focuses on health and battery life instead of extra smartwatch features. It’s affordable, comfortable, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. I’d definitely recommend it.

Attractive and comfortable. Really helps keep track of heart rate and steps. Monitors sleep time., heartbeat and breathing. Gives a fairly accurate sleep score ability to see weekly, monthly and year report. Battery life long... about 6-7 days without recharging

My wife absolutely loves this. She’s got tiny wrists (which was the biggest concern for me) but the range of the band size was flexible & never was an issue. The sensors seemed very accurate.

Personally I just wanted step tracker to Bluetooth connect with my iPhone. With the Fitbit app I never realized I could log in my food too. Battery lasts for a week. I was impressed. Great device that does great things for your health benefits.

A good reminder to move a little more each day and sleep more each night. The thin small size does not get in the way, and it seems quite accurate. In first month, charging has been required on the nineth day.

I decided to buy the tiniest and thinner around. It is stylish and all the specs I needed. It really look like a bracelet which is clever! I can wear other bracelets and would not hinderi ng. I do wear a watch to my left wrist and I wear rightwrist to my fitbit I totally love it! It is worth it!

The Fitbit Inspire 3 is perfect for me. I previously had thr Inspire 2 & wanted to upgrade. The Inspire 3 has your time, your steps, heart rate, alarm, etc. You can also receive your texts & calls from your cell phone. It has other features I haven’t used yet. It’s small, but big enough. Best Buy even gave me $20 credit for my trade in. Buy it, you will not be disappointed.

I bought this to track my 24/7 heart rate. I was looking for a product not too expensive cause I had to buy something due to my new heart issues. It’s super helpful and anytime I look at it I can see the rate with one of the custom faces. I’m sure this will help me in my journey to be more healthy it’s already helped so much! It’s hard to get in and out of water lock mode but after reading it’s just extra protection so it doesn’t get ruined

I love the fitbit so far! It's really motivating to see the different things I want to track. I mostly like it for tracking heart rate and cardio stuff. It also tracks steps and sleep. The app has also been reslly nice so far! I haven't been swimming with it yet, so I can't speak about that. The one thing I wish it had was a way to track or log pregnancy. I'm not pregnant, but it would be nice to have that option for the future. I would totally recommend this overall!

I never wanted a smart watch because i didnt want the distraction, but the sleep and exercise tracking are great. Its not too distracting or invasive (though I did turn on "do not disturb"). I think I would've preferred the screenless model but got this one in an open-box for $50 so I wemt with this one instead. With it on " do not disturb" and not checking it too frequently, it lasts about 8 days or so on a single charge and fully charges in about an hour. The band i believe is silicone which is pretty comfortable, and the one i got came with an easily replacable shorter band for smallet wrists. My only gripe (and its nitpicky at best) is that it's a little thick and sits a little high on my wrist so I find myself hitting it on stuff semi-regularly.
