Accurate tracking, Comfortable fit, Easy-to-use app
No display, Cheaper trackers are available
In the grand scheme of fitness bands, the Fitbit Flex 2 doesn't do all that much. What it does do it's really good at, and it's basically idiot-proof. If you want a tracker that'll just work with minimum fuss, there are few better alternatives. Stuff say...

Confusing notification support, Swim metrics are basic, No third party notification support, Basic design still a little drab

This is the ideal activity tracker for frequent swimmers or anyone that isn't a fan of the sporty look of a standard activity tracker. It's extremely accurate when monitoring the steps you take each day as well as the distance you travel, although if you...
The Flex 2 is slim and swim-proof, can track basic fitness data and supports a variety of accessories, including pendants
It lacks a display and the more advanced features of other Fitbit trackers. Lacks heart rate tracking. The LED lights can be confusing; battery life should be better
