FitbitCharge 6 Activity Tracker Heart Rate Monitoring, 7-Day Battery, Integrated Google Apps, Maps & Wallet, in-Depth Health Insights, Activity & Sleep Analysis, S & L Bands Included, Obsidian/Black

I bought this as a replacement for my original Fitbit Charge 6 after it stopped working, and I'm happy to say it performs just as well. Same great features—accurate step and heart rate tracking, helpful sleep insights, and a user-friendly interface.Setup was quick, and everything synced easily with my existing Fitbit account. The battery life is consistent with what I had before—about 5-6 days—and I appreciate the sleek, comfortable design.If you're replacing a worn-out Charge 6, this one works just as expected. No surprises—just the same dependable performance.

I love the battery life on this. I could in theory go days without charging it, but if charges so fast I just plop it on the charger when I take a shower and I’ve yet to have it run out of power.It’s a little tricky to get the hang of. Some things like ordering your most common workouts on top aren’t intuitive. In this case you just scroll through the first time you do the workout and it’ll float to the top next time. It automatically detects stuff like walking and running. It only counts towards your exercise if your heart rate is in a cardio zone, so warm ups and cool downs often get automatically filtered out. Personally, I find that functionality convenient.It’s small enough to count as dainty, and there are bands suitable for any event. They’re really easy to swap as well. It’s comfortable enough, at least with the right band, to sleep in. Just be willing to swap bands if the one that comes with it doesn’t do it for you.Overall, after the learning curve, I love it.

I had an Apple Watch prior to this. I much prefer the Fitbit Charge 6. Does. A great job tracking all relevant health metrics and has excellent battery life. I had to charge my Apple Watch so often that I stopped using because of the hassle. The Fitbit lasts around 6 days for me which is a huge improvement. Due to its size, it's also much more comfortable. I have no issues wearing it to sleep.

My experience with fit bit has been very good .Excellent insight into important health metrics .

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I received this Fitbit as a gift as a replacement to a previous version that had a dead screen, but otherwise was still working. Everythingnfunctions the same and appears to be accutate. I mainly use it for heartbeat and step counts, but with this version I have been tracking my sleep patterns as well.One negative here, but not something I would take a star off, is the plastic/silicone band that came with this Fitbit caused my skin to blister and rash up. I swapped out to a magnetic strap that my wife had bought with the Fitbit and my skin cleaned right up. I never had reaction to previous wristbands on my older Fitbit or any other watch, do something changed in this new band.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have had two other personal trackers. Both were much cheaper, and the options they provided were limited. When I retired, I decided to focus on my health and fitness. I walk and do resistance training regularly. This device made tracking everything easy. I like the sleep monitoring as well. I did purchase a different wristband. The standard band was too hot and heavy for my tastes. I purchased a metal mesh band with a magnetic closure and that was perfect for me. Highly recommend this item. It was four times the cost of my previous personal trackers, but worth every single penny!

It does not track your oxygen level at night. It has a graph but they can't tell you what the ratio or percentages, so how do they really know? They state it's low but they can't tell me why. So many stupid things about this watch. Also, if you call their technical department, they are really incompetent. I had to figure it out myself or try to look it up on Google. I can't believe they're technical department is so lame, even simple questions they told me the wrong information. You can never turn it off. So if you go on an airlines or want to save the battery you can't do it. It doesn't count steps well and the oxygen level and heart rate are often wrong. When you want to see where the charge is, it's a teeny little itty bitty thing above the time and you'd have to put a magnifying glass on your watch to see it, so you never can tell really what your charge is without looking at your phone. It's difficult to add things to the app on the phone. I would like to return it, but I didn't realize it had so many issues with it until I had it for a time, so beware and I purchased a bunch of different bands to go with it. Anyway, I'm very disappointed.

My charge 5 died and I tried this 6. So far, so good except the charge 5\6 bands dont fit perfectly. I bought 3 different bands and had to return two of them.
