Auto-sleep tracking is clutch
Battery life seems great
Haven't had long enough (i
The editors didn't like
The Surge is prone to accidental swipes (especially during sleep) and never defaults back to the time until you do it yourself
I hate when my watch-type accessory fails to meet the most basic criteria of a watch
The Surge is water-resistant but not show

The Fitbit Surge is an activity tracker for the serious fitness enthusiast. We're not saying a more casual user wouldn't appreciate its looks and features, but the level of functionality and price put it properly in the market for the power user. The ever...

Abstract: The Fitbit Surge was introduced in early 2015, so it is one of the first fitness trackers with some limited “smart” benefits.I have reviewed several fitness bands – Samsung Gear Fit/2, Strava, Microsoft Band 2, and many smartwatches with fitness benefits...

It's not perfect and it's not for everyone, but on paper at least, Surge is the best tracker Fitbit has produced. If you're in the market, you have to put it on the short list - just don't forget to look at the Charge HR, too...

The Fitbit Surge has an always-on display, all-day fitness and heart-rate tracking, and GPS to track a variety of activities. Fitbit's software is still one of our favorites and has the largest social base
The design feels old and clunky. It can't be worn while swimming or when in the shower. The heart rate data isn't accurate and notifications are limited to text messages and calls
All-day heart-rate tracking is a step in the right direction, but the smart features aren't nearly smart enough and the fitness side of the Surge is too basic to justify the higher price....
Abstract: The Surge is shaping as the ultimate wearable, with all the features of Fitbit's activity monitoring band and a smartwatch combined. Source: SuppliedWearables are a substantial growth area in consumer technology, and the fact that your relatives and frien...

Abstract: Not everyone is a fan of fitness trackers – they don't see the point. How does knowing how many steps you've taken or how many calories you've burned or how many flights of stairs you've climbed help you with anything?I don't have time for these people. W...
