The editors didn't like
If you're already active
Tracking steps and steps alone just isn't enough
Its battery only lasts five days
Which is less than many other trackers
Band is cheap feeling and difficult to close on your wrist by yourself. You will rely on the app or dashboard heavily for how you are doing throughout the day. Also
The indicators on the Fitbit Flex offer minimal information of your progress
Proprietary charging port
Misinterprets hand movements as steps sometimes
Calorie count is exaggerated in my experience
As is step count in some instances
Clasp on the band can easily get snagged and come undone
Basic LED display
Doesn't track stairs climbed
Proprietary Charger
Lack of OLED display
Doesn't monitor heartbeat
Takes time to get used to sleeping with it
Difficult to put on your own wrist
Does not count stairs
Requires a USB dongle for syncing
Does not track flights of stairs (like the FitBit One)
Always visible if worn with short sleeves
No screen on device to show you detailed information on goal progress
Does not tell time
Wristband notches gets gross
Very hard to attach to wrist and ca

Lacks heart rate tracking
Limited display of information on device. No altimeter
Five day battery life unimpressive
Clasp a bit fussy to use
No numeric ondevice display
Android app a bit buggy
Display isn't informative
Few Android devices actually supported
We had some issues finding the app in local Arabian Play Stores (expect an update on this matter)
General lack of data precision
No detailed feedback without using the app
Only metric tracked is motion
Boring design
Doesn't tell you what to do with your data
Hard to put on and take off
Inputting sleep
Food
And activity is a lot of work
Thanks for telling me what I've done
But please tell me more about what I should do. Would be nice if device itself showed number of steps taken at a glance
