Charge HR Wireless Activity Wristband

Came a day earlier (amazon locker) than expected and in perfect condition. Really helping me maintain fitness and keep a score, without trying :) defo recommend.

Disappointed at the lack of easy setup instructions. Having a previous Fitbit instructions not clear about setting up replacement. Alarm won't set correctly, synchronization takes ages, if it ever sets. Not best pleased

I had a charge hr when it first came out but after about 3 years that died. I ordered another from amazon but it was constantly running out of charge. I would charge overnight and itvwould be dead by the afternoon.

I have had my fitbit charge HR for just over a year and its beginning to fall apart. Not good value for money, but I like what it does. I'm glad to see that they have now changed the design but still not happy to get another one!

It broke after 5 months

Not convinced it's genuine it's red not orange and my daughter has to turn all the apps off or has to charge it everyday! Pay a bit more and get it genuine from argos or currys is my advice

Stopped working after a couple of months and couldn't contact the suppliers

This product was a disaster!

Good way to keep you fit n motivated.

ottimo prodotto a un ottimo prezzo, peccato per il cinturino in gomma che si gonfia dopo neanche un mese

It’s a good product.Ive been using for almost 3 years from February 2016. While the central part is working well unfortunately the strap has almost given way and the loop has also fallen off.Since the warranty is only for one year Fitbit will not replace it and they don’t have a repair facility for this product. This is unfortunate because the machine is actually working fine.

I bought my first Fit Bit Charge HR through Amazon (Prime) in September 2015. My first HR arrived and would not track my heart rate at all. I contacted Fit Bit and spoke to a great customer service rep. He went through multiple steps and was able to see my tracker on the dashboard and we tried everything he suggested to no avail. He advised me to recycle the tracker at a local electronics store and they would be sending me a new Charge HR the next business day. The second tracker arrived within days and it worked great until I realized that this one was not holding a charge for more than about a day to a day and a half. I called Fit Bit again and they went through similar steps with me and then advised that the version of tracker I then had, had a known battery issue and that I should again, recycle it at a local electronics store, and they were sending me yet another, and my now current Charge HR. That being said, since my third tracker arrived it has worked like a champ. I love it and it has been a huge part of my fitness goal. I don’t think the charge holds as long as Fit Bit states but it’s a good 3.5-4.5 days usually. I wear it 24/7 and am exercising 3-5 days a week. I’ve had no trouble with it recording my steps at all. It seems the only thing it doesn’t really track well is Yoga or other rather stationary activities and almost never gets the flights of stairs correct-I wouldn’t bother even really tracking the stairs unless that was your main form of exercise. Then it could be a problem. Even on the rowing machine it’s giving me steps credit which is great because number of steps is a big part of my daily exercise goal. I do not wear mine in the shower or in the water, but my son has a Charge HR as well and wears it in the shower all the time with no issues. I especially like that Fit Bit links with Myfitnesspal.com and the two apps “speak” to each other. I will also say that the small really should fit most women. I was very worried when I first ordered the tracker that the small would be too small due to my weight at the time. It arrived and was plenty big. My wrist with a tape measure now is 6” exactly and I wear the tracker on the 7th hole loosely. When I first received it, I wore it on the 4th hole loosely. The holes are ¼” apart. I don’t think it is a particularly attractive or cool looking accessory but that’s not why I’m wearing it. The newer bands you can purchase for the newer models look OK but again, I’m not wearing for fashion. I understand people with a sporty lifestyle, or who are much younger than my 46 years, may like the different color bands and may switch out colors to match their outfits but I wear it to track my steps and help me reach my goals. It would be great if it looked more like a “real” watch but it is what it is… a fancy pedometer. I highly recommend the Charge HR over the Flex if you’re planning on using it as a watch like I do because the Flex doesn’t show the date or time on the face. The heart rate monitor is spot on but I’m also not really using that to its fullest benefit I don’t think, whereas serious athletes or those that are training or trying to get their heart rate into a specific zone can really benefit from the heart rate monitor. For me it is cool to see but I don’t track that as much as I could. Another thing I think you’ll find is generally people with Fit Bits are friendly to other people who use Fit Bits. It’s almost like the universal wave when you’re boating that you waive to other boaters as you pass by. People tap their Fit Bit and smile or walk over to you in a social situation and say “Don’t you just love your Fit Bit?” Overall, Fit Bit customer service has been great to work with and I definitely feel like they stand behind their product. Just realize that there are some buggy Fit Bit trackers out there and if you’re having a problem call Fit Bit directly. I am buying another Fit Bit product for other family members and would definitely buy another Charge HR if I needed one.

Nifty little gadget! I've been using the Fitbit Charge HR for the last 10 days or so. I've got to say that this works just as advertised. The app is also quite detailed with food and water tracking built-in. I've had no issues with battery life so far - works for a good 5 days. Pros: -The strap is quite good with the watch-style clasp and it doesn't feel like its constricting my wrist. It does not look like something I'd wear to a formal occasion, however, wearing it everyday seems to be alright. -The battery life is quite good - lasts around 5 days, which is quite good compared to other fitness trackers which do not have a replaceable battery. The thing to note here is that you should turn off all-day sync to maximize battery life. The all day sync would drain your phone's battery much faster as well so unless you have a very good reason to keep it on, do remember to turn it off. -The display is crisp, and the quick view works almost all of the time. I had problems with it initially, but once you do get used to it, you will find that it almost always works. -The tracking is quite spot on. The steps were accurate (compared to the phone's built-in pedometer and with another tracker). I find that the HR data is also pretty accurate, however, it seems to be not instantaneous. Those used to a chest strap might find that the data is off by a couple of seconds. Cons: -The display is not very visible in bright sunlight, but you can see it if you squint though :) -I've had minor rashes while wearing it for 5 days straight (do take it off during showers though since it only splash proof!), however, not wearing it for a day took care of that, and its been fine since. I guess the skin just needs to breathe and takes some time getting used to it. TL;DR - this works really well for a wrist based HR tracker and I assume that if you go in for this model (the Charge HR), that is your primary stat. All in all, I would say that I got my money's worth. Although I would like to see it a little cheaper as it is in the US.
