Decent battery life, Plenty of fitness features, Selection of straps
Iffy notifications, Few non-fitness features
The Fitbit Blaze packs in a strong selection of fitness features and marries up well with the Fitbit app, giving you a pretty comprehensive overview of your exercise sessions. The Fitstar is a simple but effective feature for getting into shape, while sta...
Clunky, inconvenient charging cradle, Body, frame, and bands feel cheaper than they are
If you're an Apple fan, buy the Apple Watch. Its fitness features are solid, and it's basically an iPhone on your wrist. But if you've been using Fitbit devices for a long time, then the Blaze is worth a look. It's not the most stylish fitness band ar...
Continuous heart rate monitoring, customizable features, nice selection of interchangeable bands, great battery life
Heart rate monitoring can be a little finicky, proprietary charging dock, doesn't resemble the look of a classic watch, smart watch features are limited, Prev2 of 2Next
The Fitbit Blaze offers a great deal of customization to tailor the experience to your fitness needs. That makes it a versatile fitness wearable for anyone, be it an office worker looking to move more throughout the day or a marathoner who never stops mov...
Abstract: In the world of wearable fitness accessories, consumers are faced with a slew of decisions and potential pitfalls.Going too cheap will get you a crappy piece of tech that may look just fine while failing in the realm of usefulness. There are tons of devic...
Personalization with interchangeable straps, Slightly more aggressive looking design, Simple operation with minimal interaction, Tracks various exercises, Long battery life
Lacks waterresistance, No third party apps support, Light with the smartwatch functions
When we take a peek at the Fitbit Blaze's sticker price of $199.99, it's right there in the same class as some other full-featured fitness trackers. The problem with this particular segment, is that it clashes with the vast models available in the smartwa...
5-day battery life, Display is good enough to see outdoors, Step and sleep tracking work very well, Smooth and snappy performance, Comfortable to wear all day
A device this big (and pricey) should have GPS on board, Notifications are glitchy and limited, No waterproofing, Only 4 watch faces available, none are very good, Inconsistent heart rate monitoring, Expensive interchangeable bands, Charging method is ve
The Fitbit Blaze is a great fitness tracker in almost every way - step and sleep tracking are very accurate, and it's a great all-around fitness companion. This is no smartwatch, though. Notifications are extremely limited, there are only four watch faces...

If you wear the Blaze, be ready for all the Apple Watch comments. Be ready to explain yourself, No onboard GPS; the Blaze only connects to GPS when it's used near a smartphone, Charging is a big inconvenience since you have to remove the module from the f

Thin and light on your wrist, Battery lasts days and days, Fitbit's mobile app is the best around

Animated workouts on screen, Replaceable band, Good battery life
Annoying charging cradle, Display doesn't stay on, Splash-proof but not waterproof
Fitbit calls the $199 Blaze a "smart fitness watch." But while I like the on-screen FitStar workouts, there's little much else to recommend the device. For the record, I don't think it's ugly, but its angular design will be off-putting for many. While sma...
Interchangeable bands, Good fitness-tracking features, Excellent battery life
Feels cheap, Limited feature set compared to other smartwatches, It's kind of ugly
The Blaze continues Fitbit's tradition of making quality fitness trackers, but the device is ultimately let down by an uninspired design and a cheap-feeling design. Those deficiencies in style and materials make for a wearable you won't actually want...
