The editors didn't like
The plastic display is easily scuffed which impacts its visibility and also just makes it look cheap. The small gaps around the screen that let grime in don't help either
Fitness trackers are funny things. Much of their core functionality - step counting, run tracking - can be handled as well or better by most smartphones, they're not cheap, and their overall ability to get you fit is questionable. Hoewever, all thi...
Call notification, Sleek, modern minimal design, Traditional watch buckle closure, Comfortable supple band, Vibration alarms
Heart-rate data erratic, Not waterproof, No text notifications
We've been Fitbit fans since first trying the Fitbit Flex. For us, the programmable vibration alarms alone make the Charge HR band worth owning. Waking up to the brain-scrambling blast of an audible alarm seems like cruel and unusual punishment after mon...
Great platform, easy-to-use app, OLED display with instant data access, good accuracy, real-time heart-rate monitoring is fantastic, comfortable, secure, exercise mode great for gym users
Basic and temperamental sleep tracking, no GPS, only 1ATM water resistant, requires weekly charging unlike some competitors, design is discreet but still chunky
The Charge HR might be more functional in build than desirable like the Swiss Made Withings Activité but as a fitness tracker Fitbit is far more detailed and excels in almost every department. Automatic heart-rate monitoring is the Charge HR's mos...
Screen too small for smart notifications, Expensive considering the competition, Yet another charger
The Fitbit Charge HR does heart rate monitoring better than competitors Give it a year and all fitness bands will boast continuous heart rate monitoring – the LED technology, while not up to Olympic standards, offers an invaluable insight into your healt...

Comfortable design, Tracks nearly all exercises, Automatic exercise detection,
Run tracking lacking, Heart rate accuracy issues, Simplistic sleep tracking,
The Fitbit Charge HR is a complex device, which will appeal to a surprisingly narrow group of people. If you're a runner, cyclist or swimmer the lack of GPS is a guaranteed dealbreaker. If you're a general user looking for insights into your daily steps...
The Fitbit Charge HR activity tracker wristband offers a lot of real-time fitness stats right there on your wrist, which is an advantage over the rival Jawbone Up24 that doesn't have a display or the altimeter and heart-rate trackers of the Charge HR. The...
It's just so damn simple to use, Nice and subtle looking, and the screen is generally easy to read, Battery life is very good (almost 6 days), and step counting and heart rate monitoring were both highly accurate, The web-based interface is nice, too,
The plastic display is easily scuffed which impacts its visibility and also just makes it look cheap. The small gaps around the screen that let grime in don't help either, It uses a proprietary charging cable, which I am almost definitely going to lose
Yes. You should. If you want a standalone fitness tracker. This is a really, really good fitness tracker and it's reasonably priced for what it can do. Not only that, it's very accurate, it's super easy to use, and it's not bad-looking, either. Fitbit rea...
