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

  • 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

  • Clasping the Fitbit Flex's strap shut is tricky. Direct syncing is only available with the iPhone

  • 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
  • Sleep tracking is inconsistent at best

  • Ligereza y comodidad de uso, Autonomía, Conectividad
  • Pocos terminales compatibles, Poca información visual en la pulsera, Aplicación móvil muy mejorable
  • La Fitbit Flex , que ya puedes comprar por 100 euros , es una de las mejores opciones para cuantificar lo que haces cada día y noche. No la vas a perder, se sincroniza sin que tengas que hacer nada y ni te enterarás de que la llevas....

  • Bracelet agréable à porter, Fermeture du bracelet solide,
  • Pas d'altimètre, Temps adaptation au système de fermeture, Après la douche faut le nettoyer
  • L'utilisation est très simple, on charge le capteur tous les 2 ou 3 jours en moins de 2 heures, on le synchronise 1 fois par semaine ou plus si on veut sur son ordinateur ou son portable. Et c'est tout !! le Flex est un bracelet confortable et on l'oublie...

  • Solidité de l'ensemble et résistance à l'eau, Interface claire et simple, Système d'alerte et d'encouragements, Autonomie
  • Absence d'altimètre, Module électronique à extraire pour la recharge, Passage en mode sommeil par le biais de l'application (smartphone donc), Système d'accroche du bracelet perfectible, Traductions incomplètes
  • Malgré quelques faiblesses, ce drôle de petit bracelet fonctionne parfaitement bien. Cependant, on a parfois l'impression qu'il veut en faire trop mais qu'il n'est pas prêt pour cela. Les fonctions autour de l'alimentation et du sommeil restent perfectibl...

  • Autonomie, Synchronisation sans fil, Poids plume
  • Système d'attache un peu difficile, Sensation désagréable après une douche
  • Le bracelet Flex est un très bon produit qui bénéficie, bien évidemment, de l'expérience de Fitbit dans le domaine des coachs électroniques. Le capteur en lui même est donc plutôt réussi, notamment grâce à un poids et une taille maitri...

  • 8/10Note JDGFlexibleLe design d’un podomètre n’est sans doute pas un des premiers critères à prendre en compte, mais il y a quand même un minimum. Après un gros à priori lors du CES 2013, le modèle final est bien plus flatteur. Fitbit n’est pas nouveau...
