Alleged Leaked Images Depict Fitbit Charge 2 and Fitbit Flex 2

I see the Fit Bit Blaze everywhere. From a distance, it almost resembles an Apple Watch. Coming from an Apple Watch owner, the Blaze is very popular. But also considering it is significantly cheaper than the Apple Watch and the Blaze delivers what most are seeking.

Yes, I believe it does offer it and some people do use it and the Fitbit app to track their food and exercise.

Honestly, MFP is world's better for food tracking. I would suggest you just switch to that to track your macros. It will import your calories into Fitbit's app.

It's been a very long time since I've looked at my fitness pal, I'll give it another look and see how well it is nowadays. Thank you. 🙂

I wish Apple Watch looked more like a wristband than a watch.

Me too. Durability and reliability of several Fitbits I owned have been extremely poor. The support is pretty awesome at sending replacements, but when 1-year warranty expires, you are SOL.

So I switched to Apple Watch.

I know Fitbit was having a lot of complaints with the bands on the Surge model. More specifically they were falling apart early on and causing skin irritation. I'm not sure how many were affected by the band concerns, but there is definitely reviews and articles on it. I'm sure the it depends on usage and person wearing it.

Had a Charge HR and loved it. Now I have the Surge and love that too. I'm a fan of Fitbit and like their iOS app too. However they have one major shortcoming and that is a lack of macro nutrient tracking in the app and on their forums are a lot of complaints on that topic. It's sad Fitbit hasn't addressed such a major, yet seemingly simple thing such as this.

I have the surge, spouse has charge HR. Also have the Fitbit scale. The app is great and I love how it shows how active, or lazy I've been over time.

I bought the surge March 2015, never had it replaced and battery life is at least 4 days, even with gps usage. The band has only minor wear, and it's on my wrist except for showering, cooking and other activities like construction or heavy duty repair that could damage it.

Just wish they would allow a connection to a chest strap HRM. Running is fine, but any quick high intensity workout is a no go, at least for me.

For me it also barely works for running. For me it always starts getting lost around 140 bpm. My max HR goes higher than most people's so the usual ranges don't work at all and my guess is that for high bpms, there's probably some algorithmic guessing involved to present the illusion that it's tracking better than it really is. I'll be at 180bpm for around 5 minutes and it still reads 140.

For all casual activities it seems to be spot on though.

My wife has the Charge HR. The plastic part that covers the switch on one side and goes over to the other side came off twice when my wife removed the watch from her wrist to recharge the battery. I put a little bit of instant glue on one side the first time; I put the glue on both sides the second time. Then I saw a silicone cover with a nice design that fits over the entire watch. It prevents the plastic part from falling off.

The main complaint with this device is that a 'known' problem exists that causes it NOT to sync with the computer. It has to be forced to sync.
