No heart-rate tracking, Can't withstand immersion in water, Questionable accuracy
The Fitbit Charge is a solid follow-up to the recalled Force wristband tracker, but hold off for the Charge HR and its heart-rate tracking features when it launches in early 2015...

The wrist-worn Fitbit Charge is a superb if somewhat basic activity tracker. A slim and sleek design make it truly wearable, and the companion Fitbit website and mobile apps are the best you'll find. But the Charge isn't highly sophisticated, and other t...

I should mention I went into this Charge review as a Fitbit user. I've always liked the device support offered by Fitbit, and how you can access your data from a mobile device or regular computer. I've also used it long enough, and feel comfortable enough...

Simple to use, Great-looking, Excellent battery life
Easily scuffed, Proprietary charger, Not waterproof
In a world where phones are now tracking everything that fitness bracelets do, spending over $100 on a standalone device is a difficult proposition. You want something that has an edge over a basic phone-based pedometer. The Charge has that edge thanks to...
Relatively comfortable to wear; Works as a watch; Also works as a smartwatch in one capacity, picking up phone calls and displaying caller ID; Sleep mode is automatically switched on when worn;
Can be a little irritating to put on; Setup can take a little longer than you might expect; While the fitness information is reasonably varied, the sleep information is sorely lacking; Phone calls picked up by the band are almost always missed due to dela
With the release of the Charge, Fitbit has potentially made things a little awkward, especially since it hasn't come at the same time as the Charge HR, what will potentially be a worthwhile upgrade thanks to the inclusion of technology that could make the...

The Fitbit Charge is an excellent device that can keep up with all of your activities and give you the big picture of your heath. It is well-designed, works with a fine easy-to-use app and one of the better, if not the best, activity bands on the market t...
