Abstract: Having already reviewed Fitbit's premium fitness wearables, the Surge and Charge HR, we decided to take a look at the more affordable products offered by the company. The Fitbit Zip and Fitbit One are clip-on activity trackers, while the Fitbit Flex is wo...
If youre considering the Fitbit Zip, then sure. Its certainly better, due to the altimeter, improved screen, and recharability. And the silent alarm is a cool feature. Its also $40 more, but the $40 is worth it for the added functionality. And its $50...
So is the Fitbit One still worth buying in 2016? That depends on a couple of things.First, if you don't want to advertise your fitness tracking, then your options are distinctly limited. It's basically either this or the Misfit Shine 2. Pretty much every...
Small size, Great display, Secure Clip almost too secure, Altimeter for counting stairs, Bluetooth communication with Smartphone, Fitbit App
Difficult to check current stats, Vibration alarm doesn't always get our attention, Setting up for sleep tracking requires extra wrist band, Easy to forget before doing laundry
If all we wanted to do was track steps, calories burned, and stairs climbed, the Fitbit One would be our favorite tracker. Those not interested in easily tracking sleep or relying on vibrating alarms to alert them during the day (and night) will find th...
Abstract: The Fitbit Flex is a cool-looking, lightweight wristband that tracks and monitors your daily activity and sleep patterns. It syncs with a desktop dashboard and mobile app to give you up-to-date activity data in gorgeous graphs. You can compete with Fitbit-using friends and even upgrade to a premium Daily Trainer service. I found the Fitbit Flex gave me added motivation to walk or run that bit further, and keep an eye on my weight and fitness activities. It’s addictive and fun, and if that gets you moving more and generally fitter and leaner it’s better for you than most other computing or mobile devices.....
The Fitbit One is accurate, has great battery life and tracks pretty much everything you'd want it to. The proprietary charging cable is a pain, but it's a minor quibble about what it otherwise an excellent activity tracker.Tags:GadgetsBest prices todayRe...

Tiny, lots of features, shows how many floors climbed, tracks sleep, builtin alarm, automatically syncs via Bluetooth, motivates users to exercise more
Inconvenient and easy to lose proprietary USB cable, need to remember to hold button to start sleep tracking, size of the device means its easy to leave at home in pocket or on other item of clothing
The Fitbit One costs £80, which may sound a lot, but it's considerably cheaper than competing devices such as Nike's Fuelband, which costs £130. Overall, if you're looking for something to motivate you to exercise more and accurately measure your steps, t...
Abstract: Fitness gadgets are all the rage these days, but you'd be forgiven if you've never heard of Fitbit. It's a different story with Nike, but the Fuelband is still a rarely seen gadget. Effectively, the Fitbit One and Nike+ Fuelband are wearable computers...

Battery only lasts 7 days, Needs apps to really be useful, Expensive
The Fitbit One is without a doubt one of the most versatile and useful fitness gadgets on the market. It's also fairly expensive.The truth is that there's nothing about the information from the Fitbit One that will make you lose weight. It's no magic bull...
