I agree with Will Embry. I’m a big swim fan so I prefer those kinds of watches
I suscribed and gave thumbs up. What else needed for participating in give away?
I got my Charge HR 2 a few weeks after it was released so up to now its been about two years of daily use with it. I love it but its been in better shape. Honestly, if it was new I probably wouldn’t upgrade unless someone really sold me on the swimming features. As someone who swims daily I think it may be a good addition, but I’ve dealt with not being able to track swims for so long that I don’t feel it would be a monumental addition.
Thumbs down and no subscribe because the video actually starts at 1:20.
inspire hr and charge 3 are around the same price now (i saw them both for $99?) and i’m having trouble deciding which to pick:(
I read that Charge 3 has a pulse ox meter, do you know if that is true?
Ok, so I honestly just came for the review of the device but damn, riz is like…hot af. I ended up ogling at him the the entire time and didn’t catch anything about the review. had to rewatch (though im not complaining about that:’D).
How glitchy is the sleep monitoring on this fitbit… I just bought it and it says of 6 rest/ sleep hours, non werein REM, light, deep… So it acknowledged my sleep time, but apparently I didn’t get even five min of light sleep? Wondering if I could return or go see a doctor… lol I know you’re not IT, but in your experience with fitbits in general, how reliable are the sleep sleep trackers?
Mine won’t sync anymore after my LG G5 phone was updated to Android Oreo.
Damn, I was going to go get my Inspire replaced with a Charge 3 under warranty because the screen stopped working, but then I changed the clock face and it works ��♂️��♂️��♂️��♂️
I work in a place where customer proprietary info can’t be breached. So no texting from watch features allowed. Its why i couldn’t get the “smarter” watches. Had the charge hr and the charge 2 till i cracked it. Great watch, serves it’s purpose well.
I am someone who is visually impaired. I love the fitbit. the onely thing I wish it did was talk. since I can’t really read the screen very well. because I like that they are affordable I just wish there was a screen reader for the blind users that usethem.
I have a charge 2 and it serves all my daily needs for fitness.
I have just bought fitbit charge 3 for about one week today and it’s not working already, It was full charged last night but then it’s just gone off this morning during am wearing it.
Great video, good relative information and no blah blah blah! Thank you!
Nice video! I don’t know if you’re a runner, but if so when you run does it tell you how far you ran (like miles) and your pace per mile?
Curious if the Inspire HR band comes off easily? Lost my first fitbit because the band totally came off the watch)):
I was looking for reviews on the Fitbit Inspire HR vs the Charge 3 and I came across your video. I have to say you answered all of my questions, and then some. My first concern was budget, as I don’t have a ton of money to spend on either one really. My second concern was the heart rate and sleep pattern function. I’m so glad I found tour channel and the video because if and when I do get a Fitbit, I’m pretty sure it will be the Inspire HR, and that’s because of the good information I just got from watching your video! Thank you so very much. Sincerely, a new subscriber ��
Thanks Rizknows I’m going for fitbit charge 3 and not garmin vivosport smart because of the band replacement which is indeed a big factor thinking durability and longevity. Plus i can track swim and biking with this as well, gps ain’t that big a deal.
THANK YOU for this!!! My Charge 2 died yesterday. No idea how, but Fitbit tech gave me a few things to try and nothing worked. They gave me a discount code, but the Mothers Day sale is far better than their 25% off. So I was looking at the Inspire HR, Charge 3, and Versa Lite. Altogether the three are about $30 difference price wise with this sale. Their website made me feel insane trying to figure out why the MSRP is so different, they don’t seem that different at all. Thank you for your reviews!! They should hire you and put your videos on their website!!
Aftet using charge-3 for a while i feel its crap i spent $140 on it cant even reset it or cant even change the date i reset several time
I have got the black one of this, and I take mine in the shower/bath all the time!
Nice make up. You can swim with your charge 3. No worries. Nice review.
Does the stop watch feature still time out? Its one of My only complaints for the charge 2.
I lost my Fitbit chart 3 watch at my travel to Taiwan last week. I am really mad with this watch. I really hate who ever design this watch band. Who ever designed this band which is a moron because it’s too easy to fall off from the connecting to the watch body. Only the first week after I bought it. It fell on the ground three times. Why don’t you design it like a real watch? If you have a very expensive name brand watch. You would never let you watch band that easily to lose or disconnectedbecause if that watch fall or lost, it may over 10k us $. Why I spending 345 cad dollars for worry about I am going to lose my watch on the ground all the time?
I had a Casio sport 50 meters water resistance watch before, that I pay for 25$. I used it for 11 years, I never change battery and the watch band never disconnect with the watch body itself.
This is my second Fitbit watch, and I will never buy it again because this watch design is not met my need.
I need a heart rate sport watch, with GPS, step counting and all that cool things for sport, 50 meters water resistant. So I can use it when I scope diving or swim in the ocean. Most important things is never fall or disconnecting from the watch body itself. I am going to give you no stars and a thumbs down ��
Charge 3 has connected GPS just like Versa. The only Fitbit that has GPS is Ionic.
I previously had the charge 3 with Google pay. My bank wasn’t compatible with the watch. I also got water in the watch 1 yr and 2 months after buying (took a shower with it on I normally don’t) it crapped out. I had an Amazon warranty, the refunded my original price I paid.
I recently got the inspire hr and tbh I like how it doesn’t open whenever I tilt my wrist because then I would lose a lot of batter life
You literally made the perfect video this is just the video that I needed to watch
I love the rose gold one.. But i’m a guy and a coward so i will get the black one.. ��
If u have problems with any fitbit devices, beyond your own troubleshooting based on some onlibe tips and chat with Fitbit support… Fyi, Fitbit does not have any service or repair centres anywhere in the world. Once damaged, out of warranty… Just throw it away. Dont believe me? Contact fitbit support via chat and verify yourself.
I still have a Fitbit charge 2. I’m behind cause now there’s a charge 4. To upgrade or to not upgrade that’s the question I like the new GPS tracker on the 4
I really like your intro in the way you invite people to subscribe, simple, direct to the point and convincing. I subscribed
I just got the charge 3 on sale at Walmart. It was on sale online but they price matched in store. It’s also on sale on amazon for the same price being $99.
Hey Jeff, is there a step tracker for our senior parents, that doesn’t require a computer or smartphone setup.
All she wants it for is tracking steps (I don’t think pedometers are as accurate).
Love my Inspire HR… does everything I need and very comfortable. Bought mine for $79 at Walmart
Had mine a week and so far very happy with it and despite a lot of comments saying there isn’t a face with a date on, there is an analogue face that also shows the date.
there’s a lot of issues about this product.. before buying this one… try to join their forum and read some of the posted issues that dated 2018 until now still exists. Fitbit doesn’t have the plan to fix their product my recommendation DONT BUY THEIR PRODUCTS until issues are fixed.
Anyone know why Fitbit Pay doesn’t seem to be on these two bands, based on listed features, other than that “special edition” of the C3? I can’t seem to find any info and I’d love to use Fitbit pay on an IHR
Fitbit Charange3 sprzedawany w Polsce…Nie jest tani!
Firma nawet nie postarała się o polską instrukcję i aplikację w języku polskim!
Chyba szkoda pieniędzy.
Nie polecam!

Thanks for this. I have a tiny wrist and it looks like the Inspire HR might be better for me because of its curvature.
Do they have a feature that shows your heart rate continuously on the screen? Both while resting and training? As for the huawei band 3 pro you have to look through the menu and press “heart rate” to actually see it. You can’t just have it on all the time.
I’m a bodybuilder and really need to know
Calories burned
Optimum fat burning heart rate
Is this accurate
Im finally going to get the inspire hr after returning the versa 2 because the hr burnt my skin. Id like to use it for everyday use and not always for sleep, and its more discrete so I wont have the need to use it 24/7 since its not as pricey.
Just ordered this, Im a bit annoyed already about the sneaky way Fitbit dont include fitpay on the normal models, they even show the Graphite model with the pay on the screen! its not until you look closely you realise it is special editions only. I have had 2 fitbits previously, they are good for fitness but dont last long both breaking, will see how this one gets on
Should I buy the charge 2 or the charge 3? In New Zealand the price difference is $120 and I wondering if it’s actually worth the money to buy the charge 3.
Very informative review but the plugs midvideo become a little irritating. Just giving feedback! I appreciate putting this together for us
id rather have the charge 2. the charge 2 gives you an actual button, and the tap feature to scroll through options. a touch screen is pointless on a tiny device as this. the charge 3 adds a bunch of useless features, besides the water resistance.
There is one huge difference, at least for me, that was not clear in the beginning of the year, hence why I have bought the inspire HR. Not that fitbit is rolling out the blood oxygen measurement on their app, I have found out that it does not have the sensor for it, the SPo2. Charge 3 has, and that sucks.
Is it best to wear the watch on the outside or inside of the wrist?
I got a charge 3 because my 2 died. After a few months the stupid thing doesn’t sync properly! Someone bought me an Apple Watch and I think I’m going to be forced to move on.
Came here for a comparison review. Got a review of the Charge 3. Hasn’t really helped with my buying decision. Shame:(
you get in this on photo do some muscle testing and you see it shut down you body not good at you don’t need one when it all on your phone
It is not a good idea to run near joshua trees. Seeds can stick to your shoes and hurt your legs… happend to me
Im returing this shit 2morrow i cant get this asshole watch to sync to my damn samsung s8 plus tried everything
Thank you. Wearing a Charge 2 with a cracked face so trying to decide on a replacement Charge verses Inspire HR.
Thank you so helpful to a grandma trying to decide which to buy for a teen granddaughter! $98.55 for a charge 3 today on Amazon….stair climb counter is important, so think I’ll go with that!
had the older Alta HR and after charging it on a phone charger, it didn’t show the right heart rate most of the time, so calories etc were way off. Now the screen is breaking down and it’s basically trash now. But I only paid fitty for it at Goodwill with 2 extra colored bands about 1 or 2 years ago. Heart rate is what I wanted it for besides the time and date. The screen was always too dark for outside. Wish these were on sale now and don’t want to buy it on Amazon in case I lose the lottery.. Maybe Best Buy. I read the auto sync eats up the battery.
Love the comparison it definitely influenced my purchase choices
I have the white one. Love the strap love the look. Notifications come thru fine but why do I wake up to 3000 steps n climbed 26 stairs? Did I work out out in my sleep? SMH
I had charge3 for 1 year. So, after the year, a rubber band broken. I’ve replaced it to a longer one from the box (it was included, probably for thicker wrists) and after a week it starts to endlessly auto pressing the main button… So now I just couldn’t use it and it discharges battery really fast. I’ve cleaned it, took off all bands, but nothing substantially changed( Also, the warranty period is out. Now I’m thinking about another tracker, definitely not Fitbit. The screen is damaged a bit, some horizontal stripes have appeared. Also, it “counts” steps even when I just waiving my hands. So, based on my experience I definitely wouldn’t recommend buying anything from Fitbit it’s just expensive, not so durable, and even can’t properly perform its main task count steps properly.
It doesn’t count swimming lengths correctly, and it’s a known problem!
My fitbit sucks, did the hard reset about 6 times in 3 months, doesn’t even connect to my phone no more and the time is behind by 15 MInutes so I only use the distance tracker now… my name is Karen I want to speak to the manager of fitbit right now!
Do not buy this piece of garbage. The screen time out is set at 3 seconds, and there is no way to change at. Unless you are quick at reading your screen, you cannot use it for things like stop watch or check your vitals easily. On top of that, the company is a joke and customer support useless.
I recently bought an Inspire HR to track my fitness regime. Currently am doing an hour each day on a treadmill walking approx 2.5 km (per machine data) and 5000+ steps (per pedometer) yet when I check the Fitbut app on my computer it tells me that I’ve done only 0.11 km and 250+ steps during that hour of exercise. Not impressed! Beginning to doubt the accuracy of any of the data from this device. One cool thing is that when I do go out for a walk it will map my route.
Everything he describes are the features of a product made solely to get people into the manufacturer’s line of products. Kind of like a drug dealer. Give em a few cheap bumps, then later, they’ll start going for the 8-balls. Currently waiting for my cheap bump.
Wonderful review! I have a Charge 2 and am considering what next, if any.
ugh…can’t get past setup. thinking about throwing it away…
great review. i agree with the others, thank you for reviewing it on your wrist. was debating on buying, after seeing your video, ordering today. thanks again!!
The thing I dislike the most about charge 2 is how fast the screen switches off. and it looks like charge 3 is the same. so no upgrade from me i’m afraid!

Got one for Christmas.Loved it for 4 months when it stopped working. They sent me out a new one which lasted 2 months. Over rated crap.
Does the charge 3 measure the oxygen level in your blood? If so that is a great feature the inspire hr doesn’t offer.
It’s not a step up from Charge 2 when the 3 doesn’t have GPS for those of us who want to view our run on the app. I’ll stick to Charge 2. Great review tho’ glad I found out about the lack of GPS because I was all set to buy it!
Fitbit charge 3 and the Apple watch? Come on dude the price difference and the overall product category are two separate world’s. Why is every dude brainwashed by Apple
Does it vibrate when you get an incoming call/message on your phone?
Charge 3 has SP02! Now activated in the software too. This is a big plus over the inspire.
I got the inspire hr a while ago and it constantly glitchs I regret buying it
None of us watching this video own an iphone so I don’t know why you brought up the apple watch.
So glad I came across this video. Thank you for helping me make my decision.
The only thing that gets me is the size of the bands and the screen size it’s either one or the other not both sadly
This was very helpful in deciding which one would be better. Great video, thank you. I know I’m late to this video, but I hope I can still be entered to win a bundle.
Yo i don’t hear anybody comparing this to Whoop. Anybody know which one is actually better, and not just marketing and advertisement words o “best on the market” “more accurate”?????
Nice video and you’re nice looking too. I’m thinking of buying a charge 3 for myself.
I wish I’ve seen this yesterday!!! I just received Fitbit Charge 3 and worn it 2 hours. It’s bit chunky for my wrist and I want to get Inspire instead… wonder Amazon can take it back. Do you know?��
Many reviews said that it is inaccurate in counting steps..is it true? Please reply asap..it’s urgent
I hear people use smart watches in the shower. I find it hilarious.
But on the fitbit, I’m really glad it’s water resistant. Not so keen on touch screen though. But I’m sure it’s intuitive ����. I would like to try it out.
For running, does it do intervals and store the distance and time? If not, what fitness watch would you recommend for that, Cheers.
I’m really stuck on which is better but I’m only reading it off the website
5:06 if you wanna know how they are different from each other
Some thing also to add on to this i have had this for a month now and i have developed a red lump rash because of it im not sure if its just my wrist but i have heard of the fitness rash it is just something to point out for people with sensitive skin thinking about getting this product
Thanks for posting this video! I have the charge 3 and was contemplating passing it along to my husband and getting a inspire hr you cleared all of my doubts! Thanks!
Awesome review! I just ordered this exact colour today as well as the grey fabric band. Really excited! I usually always get the black so I’m glad to see this one looks so good!
I purchased the inspire HR, and my feelings are mixed.
The only reason that made me prefer the Fitbit is HR measurements.
But it’s not very accurate for me.
When i workout it will lose tracking for several minutes at once, then come back with an inaccurate reading for some other minutes before showing that makes sense again.
It’s very upsetting and completely ruins the purpose of this bracelet for me
What’s with all these wannabe tech reviewers like the verge and cnet always doing terrible reviews and comparing things to apple.
What’s the difference between the normal charge 3 and special edition?
Anyone else here looking up reviews before they buy it for Black Friday LOL
Today, 6/16/2019, my wife gave me a Fitbit Versa fitness tracker watch for Father’s Day. I was very excited to receive it. My son spent an hour and a half setting it up for me (that seems too long).
1. The ads says the Fitbit Versa has an atimeter. This is FALSE. The Fitbit Versa can tell me how many flights of stairs I have climbed but it cannot give me the altitude. I have to get that information from my phone. The Fitbit Versa does not have an altimeter.
2. The ad says the Fitbit versa has an blood oxygen monitor (SP02). This is FALSE. Supposedly there is an SP02 sensor on the back of the Fitbit Versa which is not enabled because Fitbit has been unable to get it to work. So why is Fitbit talking about this non-existant feature?
3. The promotional articles say the Fitbit Versa will be able to provide EKG information. This is FALSE. Only basic heart rate information is provided. It does not even show heart beat over time. It just shows current heart rate. I can get that info from a $30 product.
4. The ads says the Fitbit Versa heart rate monitor is accurate. This is partly true and partly false. I hiked 90 minutes today and the Fitbit Versa was able to capture my heart rate 75% of the time. That is better than the old Fitbits that were wildly inaccurate, but it is not wonderful performance. Articles says the Fitbit Charge 3 has a better heart rate monitor. Who knows. I don’t trust Fitbit any more.
5. The ads say that the Fitbit Versa has a battery that will last 3 days. This is FALSE. Starting from a full charge, after my 90 minute hike, where I checked my pulse multiple times, used half of the battery.
6. The screen of the Fitbit Versa is very difficult to use. I do not like to stop when hiking. I want to just look at my watch/fitness tracker to see what my stats are. IMPOSSIBLE! Whenever I wanted to check my heart rate, I had to stop, squint at the screen, push a button on the side of the watch for HOME, press a heart icon on the bottom of the watch, then swipe upwards about 20 times before the watch would bring up the series of screens that lead to the heart rate screen. This makes the heart rate function nearly worthless to me.
The ONLY feature that the Fitbit Versa has which is useful is a heart rate monitor yet it is way too difficult to use and not very informative and does not always work. I do not need the useless features like an additional alert from my watch if I receive a text or phone call. The alert from my phone is sufficient. I have not tried the music feature of the Fitbit Versa but people who have say it is impossible to precisely manage your music list, resulting in people being forced to listen to music that they hate.
BOTTOM LINE: Fitbit is going to lose money on me. I am returning the totally unsatisfactory Fitbit Versa for a refund. I will try out the Fitbit Charge 3. It is sucks, I will return it too.
Does anyone make a good heart rate monitor?
I am really tired of half-assed crappy electronics that don’t work.
i have fitbit charge 3 and i have a problem there is a orange in the white writings and clockface at the side when i swipe please help ��☹️
I liked the way the Charge 3 was easier to read and the watch is very important to me. I also was pleased that it wasn’t that much bigger than the inspire.
I’m thinking of getting this Fitbit Charge 3 even though I have an Apple Watch. My reason is that I miss the sleep tracking when I used to have the Charge 2 [before I sold it].
It’s actually waterproof you can shower with it and it wont break
My Charge 2 will not work on my iMac, since Catalina Dec 2 2019, had worked glitchy for many months prior. I don’t want to look at graphs and data on my fitbit or even cell phone,.
Apple should make their own fitness tracker to compete with Fitbit & it would be a great seller for them if they were to price it at $120-170 range like the Fitbits are priced so that it would be really competitively priced
Does anyone else have issues with the charge 3 over-counting steps by like a lot?
Since fitbit knows when im asleep and its connected to my phone via bluetooth is there a way to set it so it puts your phone on silent if you are sound asleep? My mom has a habit if calling over and over until i wake up.
thank you soo much. i was torn and went to the store to look at these two and been researching and seeing your video helped me make the decision on which one to get. thank you soo much.
I live your lipstick color sorry off topic. But what brand and color is it?
Who trusts the notification system? I don’t because they can read my contacts and it even says they can activate buttons.
I just got the Fitbit Charge 3 on sale at Best Buy for $120 but I am considering getting an Apple Watch Series 4
The charge three is really cool but I don’t like how big it is I wish they made a watch like the inspire hr with Fitbit pay and flights climbed and calls and texts.
Charge 2 for $30-$40 is best value. If you aren’t looking for raw value.. Just throw down the cash for Versa.. Charge 3 is very skipable if you do not swim. Although I love the charge time
Черно-белый экран, автономность 5 дней и цена почти в 200 долларов в нашей рознице. Интересно, есть ли вообще хоть в какой-то стране сумасшедшие, которые купят этот кал в 2018-2019? Люто поржал когда услышал, что теперь (в 2018) на браслете можно посмотреть уведомления. Вау! Уведомления! В 2018! Почему они еще не банкроты?
I don’t use the notifications on my Charge 3, because I only want it to track my fitness, and I’m at 50% battery life after 6 days of use at the moment. I had some syncing issues the first few days, but after I reset the Fitbit and re downloaded the Fitbit app, I havent had any trouble, although it still takes forever to sync (something Fitbit should look into).
Just get the amazfit cor. Same thing with an ips color screen. 12 day battery life. 50m (5 atm) swimproof with hr
I automatically roll my eyes everytime I hear someone complaining about bezels. I can’t help it.
10000 steps is possivle for an office worker, especially if you don’t have family responsibilities. Just make it a goal, if you want to.
Didn’t want to watch because I barely bout a charge 2 in July 2018 and I know this one is way better smh ����
Юзаете ли вы сейчас какой-то фитнес трекер? Как вам Fitbit Charge 3?
GREAT review get an international sales site I would have bought one from you!! Well done, well presented. Greetings from Amsterdam
I had an issue with the straps on the Charge 2. There seemed to be a consistent point of failure with the strap end that attached and locked on by a flimsy plastic plate glued in to the strap end. Even the genuine FitBit ones would have the plastic end break meaning it would suddenly detach and the tracker would fall off. So when FitBit offered a Charge 3 at a special rate to existing customers, I took the offer up as the strap attachment looked far more substantial in the photographs. So far, it seems more solid than the Charge 2 system.
It’s a good gift for a family member who’s a bit overweight. A subtle way to encourage them to take an interest in their health, start exercising and maybe lose a few pounds.
Fitbit will probably add gps on fitbit 4. It’s how manufacturers are..
Sadly. It still doesn’t support music. Not even control music from smartphone.
Been looking for a deal and just ordered from QVC for $99.00 and free shipping. What I really wanted was a bit bigger face and water resistance compare with Charge 2. But I did not want a big face like the Versa. I also did some searching on google and it seems to be a bit more accurate than the charge 2. What I’m am really wondering about is the bands, how they will hold up… they look like they will pull at the hair on your wrist? I hate that. Another plus for the Charge 3 vs Charge 2 is that you have more selections on wrist bands on Amazon by 3rd party companies… so look there instead of Fitbit website. Does anybody know the difference… does it just come with extra bands…?
I had the first Charge, and then the Flex. I am ready to move onto a newer Fitbit. This helped me decideI really want the stirs feature and the bigger display and the longer battery life. Choosing the Charge. I am afraid the plastic on the Inspire HR will become scratched in my busy grandmother life. Hoping to find a deal. Thanks for the concise and thorough video.
my name is alex and my birthday is on the 8th of october!!!!!!
Just got the charge 3 and I love it. Looking forward to not charging so much like the charge 2.
Hey, just wondering if my charge 3 needs to be connected to my phone in order for it to recieve messages
Hi Hannah Just wondered if you’re still using the Charge 3 and if you’ve had any problems with it? It’s my mum’s birthday next week and she would like something like this, but been swamped in mixed reviews (across all fitbits) about them not lasting. I don’t want to pay out for something that will break a few months down the line.
Love the charge 2 strap and price but like charge 3 features and size which one should I get?!?!
You really sold the heck outta this device because I literally just paused the video to purchase. Great video!
I have one ☝️ of those and I love �� it In fact I have the same one I love your channel I wish I could meet you but I live in Melbourne and I’m a kid so love ya ����������������������������������������������������������������������������������
What band/color are you wearing with the Charge 3? I’m looking for a new band.
I really really want the change 3 I have the fit bit flex 2 and it stop tracking my swimming and I’m looking for new device and I really want this one
Just purchased the charge 3 instead of choosing the charge 4, thank you for the great review:)
My main reason for wanting this watch is the calorie loss counting from workouts, do you think it’s not accurate enough to purchase for that reason?
Easy to read in sunlight? lol i’m guessing you have never worn one, not sure why you would lie but i guess the $$ is why
Awesome real life use review. Thank you for showing it on your wrist, speaking to the alarm, and Timer!! None of the other reviews have mentioned the timer for HIIT!

Thanks for the vid, but… 17º nice and warm?? Damn, UK, weather it’s not your thing
My grandmother died at the age of 92 in 1988, I wonder which Fitbit she would have chosen?!

Can you do the weekly challenge on fitbit 3 charge with your friends
Worked well for me aside from constant syncing issues then a few weeks out of warranty it started and taking on water like a sponge.
All dumb, critical comments by people who don’t own the watch.
Damn, still with that weird charging cable. On Charge 2 it’s so finicky and stupid it drives me nuts. And this wristband is still deteriorating on me. Just like on Charge 1.
That was a straight up brilliant review. Thank you. I will go with the inspire hr, NOt being a cheap ass just that it is sleaker as i am a electrician and love the ocean. BTW how do they take to the ocean. I will be no beper that 1 meter about 3 foot. I run bare foot in the ocean about 2 and a 1/2 feet deep. work the core non impact and dam you feel so refreshed after. IS there any advice as the salt water with the inspire
HR,, Thank you for reading please let me know,,, i do cool down swim,, no deeper that 3 / 4 foot,,, Thanking you:-)
Do you get notifications for Facebook messages, and WhatsApp as well?
Come here to watch review on Fitbit 3 but yet you talk about Apple watch and Fitbit versa not what I came for.
You were wearing the Fitbit way too high on your wrist! The heart rate won’t work as well. Silly billy
love the review, sounds promising to be honest. and I loved that Keith Richards book behind you on your bookshelves. what’s your wrist size? when you bought it/got it. Did you get the S-size right?
Cheers mate,
Подскажите пожалуста, после месяца покупки он перестал работать. Что случилось? И куда обратится
Подскажите пожалуйста название трека на 0:10 0:20. Уже несколько раз слышал, но не могу найти. Спасибо)
Look at the Moov tracker, it’s awesome, especially for swimming but works well in all activities!,
Hi, can this tracker be use in mountains to control your acclimatisation by the SpO2 sensor? Is it show in app how change the O2 level in your blood during day?
Пол минуты говорил что они компактные, ничего нового не услышал но зато поднял настроение))
I just replaced my charge 2 with a charge 3 from Sam’s Club with an extra wristband included for $89. My one question is the size of the text on the two devices in your review. As an older adult text size means a lot to me. I couldn’t tell in the side by side in your review if the text size was any different.
Just want this for stair climbing I got the Alta HR since 2017 love and nothing wrong just no stair climbing on it lol I didn’t read much on it I should’ve checked to see which one had stairclimbing but there’s like two other ones I have stairclimbing it’s a little bigger than this one and wider I’m not sure that I can sleep with a wider watch so I think I’m gonna go with this one it’s slimmer is not as wide
The charge 3 is what I’ve been wanting. Having a water proof device is better.
Customizing the screen, is this still the same? I really liked how I would ONLY see what I wanted to use (in the order that I wanted) and the rest was just non-existent. I was told though that that’s not the case anymore on the 3.
Charge 3 is 100 and inspire hr 80. Which is better to get?? Looking to buy as gift for the wifr
Did somebody noticed that in 6:50 the watch is green, and the rest of vid is white??
Why am I watching a review from someone who looks like he’s never left the house?
I’m so glad that you did an honest review and didn’t try to sugar coat the charge 3 so fitbit can make more money. I’m buying the fitbit-HR right now, thank you so much for cutting my search time in half.
You are out of hook man. Compare with a smart band not smart watch. But despite that i was tricked buying it and it is a bit pricy it is still a good device. The step counter is a joke, it counts dayly double that my P30 phone.
Полная херня, ни о чем…
стало больше на 40%, бла бла, как будто в этом главное
Техническую часть лучше рассказал бы.
Это явно не все его функции
My wife left Fitbit about 2 years ago because the band/display connectors would break rendering it useless. Now she is sick of apple watch and is looking at fb again. In your opinion are the band/display connectors more durable?
Чувак не к лицу фиолетовый цвет ��. Как-то не смотрятся как мужские, более женские. И главное: цена велика, как для такого чуда ;(
Could you please review the Huawei Band 4 and compare it to the charge 3
Thanks for the awesome review
Hi I bought one and returned it as the tracking was so wrong. By the way The Fitbit developers for the Charge 3 had not seen the Charge 2! Was mentioned on the Fitbit Community blog site. The tracking tracks while you drive. I wanted to swim with them barge 3. It would of been my 4th Fitbit. I’m not interested in them anymore as they are moving towards a smart watch. So I’m looking for something else.
The NEW FITBIT CHARGE 4 here’s a full review: https://youtu.be/XwEzzs3iIGk
If you want to check the time quickly, you have to turn it on I really don’t like this, even though it probably is the reason the battery life is longer. I do like that you can change the bands quickly and easily. The watch faces have been added to since this review, and they have the date, or whatever you want to see when you TURN ON the watch the time does not display all the time.
Unless Fitbit changes the charging cable to type c USB, I won’t get one and need to carry its cable everywhere
I have a fitbit blaze wich is 200 dollars and cant even tell the weather
I have this same exact Fitbit, I just got it today for Christmas and I honestly just love it because it’s amazing and it’s so cool!
The pricing on the inspire is wrong. The retail is 130 dollars
I dunked mine in water and it’s fine if showerd with it it’s fine
who cares about bezels, are you trying to watch a movie on that thing?
Is inspire hr waterproof or only water resistant bcz I need smth to swim with
My pure unfiltered opinion…. Everyone should take a phone when they go on a run 😉 What if someone jumps you? 0-:
is it just me or is her voice just soo mezmerizing. i love her voice ��
Hi What is the weather app called that you have on your Fitbit charge three I looked it up and I can’t seem to find any weather apps
You can also use the stopwatch feature and then continue to check others features on the Fitbit without turning off the stopwatch. The Fitbit 2 wouldn’t let you do that. You would have to get out of the stopwatch feature in order to continue to use the Fitbit. Also one of the watch faces will let you check steps, heart rate, calories and distance all on one without scrolling through it like you would have to do with the Fitbit 2.
$150 for that? Thats not worth $150, no music on it? And no music u guys are idiots paying for that
DO NOT BUY FITBITS they are the most inaccurate devices on earth I got my first one as I had serious ankle surgery and needed to increase steps by 10% each day. I knew quickly that no way could I do that amount of steps.. I got an exchange no different so eventually I gave up. Some years later I got one free as a gift from BT it was worse!! I counted steps and wrote them down, what a laugh a piece of fiction. Fitbit replaced it noticed it was shown as REFURBISHED hardly like for like as they claimed, put on on each wrist what a hoot both different. Asked Fitbit if they could guarantee accuracy if I upgraded no straight answer. Why pay more for inaccuracy. Yes they sent me another refurbished piece of rubbish so I now have three inaccurate devices even logged steps while driving an automatic car. I now have 3 pieces of inaccurate devices all giving different recordings. Even calculated more hours of sleep than I had spent in bed. One wearer noted she got the “golden sandal” for doing the equivalenr of nearly 40 miles in a day one sane person advised getting the device calibrated the others celebrated victory are they mad!! Mo Farrah would be hard pressed to do that. Some of these users when challenged said it did nit matter about being accurate why bother just guess how many steps you think you might have done. So I complained again lol they sent me another “REFURBISHED” inaccurate device. So I wore one
each wrist and one in each pocket. Worn on the wrist totally inaccurate ones in pocket better. So they are pedometers easily lost out of your pocket and can’t be used if you have no pockets. If you are thinking of buying a Fitbit my advice is don’t bother by an app,e, farming or skagen,
I though at first the support team were ultra pleasant until I realised they use a standard response once you comp,et all the tests they give you they just pass you to the next stage where you se,etc whether you want a replacement or oat extra for an upgrade. Now it beggars belief to wonder how they have so many REFURBISHED devices these are probably what people have returned.
Don’t bother trying to get a response from Mr Park, the Chief Executive he is obviously could not care less about customer satisfaction as long as the money keeps on rolling in.
DO NOT BUY FITBITS
I have a charge2 just need a new strap. While it still works I wont upgrade. I noticed fitbit have Ace2 for kids. Is that worth it just for the price for kids
What would you reccomend for weight lifting heart rate tracking/calories burned?
Does yours count your steps inaccurately??? I woke up with steps already done, all I did was wash my hands and then i done like 20 more steps
I personally have the fitbit versa 2 and it is amazing
it tracks my sleep, calories, steps, exercises very well. But when looking at the price difference between the versa 2 and charge 3 it’s about 35 dollars. but the best option is the fitbit inspire hr because it has the same sensors and tracking methods as the charge 3 with an even more thinner and better design. the only drawback is that u dont have some features.
Dude this video addressed damnnear everything I wanted to know. Fitbit has terrible marketing
Spinning it on its face at the end has really triggered me!!!! goon!
what is the best phone to work with the Fitbit, thanks for your help in advance, for kids?
Does iT still NOT have any way to check battery life on the device itself?
I find that really annoying on the fb charge2. I have to check the app on my phone, or Connect the charger.
My biggest gripe, it stops syncing and for whatever dumb reason it picked up my morning and afternoon commute at 10 minutes of bike riding!!! LOL!! I like the fact it tracks my heart rate and the mapping part seems to work ok. I just think that with technology today there should be less stupid stuff like having to restart my blue tooth or re-installing the damn app.. Does it work, sure it tracks stuff. To me, it’s a fancy watch and a talking point.. Although it does track my heart rate as going up a few points everytime I track stuff..
I have a flex 2 and love it’s waterproof so I can wear in shower so I now wear it 24/7 except when I charge it. Looking at changing to Charge 3.
New to Fitbit
Not sure which one to get
Thanks for the video tho bro
Need to choose between Fitbit charge 3 or garmin forerunner 235 for casual swimming measuring distance as accurately as possible… Advice please? Thanks!
I know the Vivofit 3 pairs with chest straps do you have a list/videos of armbands that do pair with chest straps for HIIT sessions and Weight Training?
just logged 1700 steps driving
customer support confirms every time i drive i need to wade thru a half dozen screens to log driving as activity
then log thru same half dozen screens upon arrival
customer service says in the event you forget u can take a piece of paper and minus the steps in error
customer support confirms return shipping is at my cost
does anyone know does the ulta track steps while driving
welcome to 2019
wowza
I have the inspire Hr and I’m wondering how to turn on gps and use it. I have the Fitbit app but I don’t see anything about a Gps.
hey..just bought fit bit charge 3…it is registering steps by itself..don’t know how to fix this…while riding a bike or driving a car..steps are increasing by itself..it doesn’t seem million dollar company’s product..don’t buy…waste of money…
Guys! There is a sale on both of these watches until the 14 Janruary 2019!
Sent Back 3 FitBit Charges already…………… bands break, rubber bubbles, loses sync, inaccurate heart monitoring. Got a full refund though…………after 75 emails.
This fitbit charge 3 can kinda control music guys!Just found a way.Head to the app and turn on the notification for spotify,then when you play a song,they will send a notification into your band and from there,you can play,pause,unlike,like,clear next track or previous track.But you can only do it once
Only had for a few days and so light, and so far u really like it better than the inspire
I have the charge 3 device and I was wondering if you could tell me what’s the red sensor on the back of device….it normally comes on when you go to bed plus with the spo2 sensor now Fitbit support says my device can pick up the levels but on the app it don’t show…….any clue how to access it
I just hate how the charge 3 doesn’t have a function to tell the date. Other than that it’s a pretty cool watch.
When do you say is the best time (holidays) to invest in one of these? And do you have a review on the versa 2 too?
The numbers on the watch face and the watch face itself are so small its really hard to see when you are running. The shaking about and the sunlight make it almost impossible to see while you are at full pace. I have to slow down and run into some shade so that I can determine my distance and pace. Then I have to swipe to get my time. Very annoying.
Thanks for the review! This was a big help in choosing the right fitbit for my life style.
There are a lot of videos about fitbits out there which was confusing. I liked that you made it simple and to the point.��
Does the charge 3 strap break as easily as the 2? Official n 3rd party straps seem to break at top on HR2, bin thru 4 so far
Your review was great. I have a charge 2 and as you noted not that much of a change except for waterproof and swimming. Since I am not a swimmer I will stick with the charge 2 until it no longer works. Thanks for the honest review.
The charge 3 is more comfortable too. My charge 2 screen was also cracked.
what is the best one for crossfit and heavy lifts then?? im going crazy since i can’t find a good and affordable one! I’ve been searchin for mi band 3 and i saw the fitbit and i was thinkin charge 2 was fine then i heard you or someone else saying the heart rates wasn’t as accurate as the charge 3’s. I’ve been searching for 3 but now you sayin it’s bad. Maaaaaan… I go to gym 3-4 times a week, i weight lifts, do crossfits and a lots of HITs. I don’t do exercises outside. Can anybody share a good band/smart watch for me? I don’t care about the gps and notifications btw.
Have you figured out how to stop it from thinking you’re walking when you’re driving in a car?
I am a beginner at fitness.. Should I buy a basic Fitbit flex 2 or go for charge 3? Experts help please
Piece of garbage. Paid 200.00 for 16 mos of use. Now not working. Fitbit sucks,
I was hoping to compare the two since they are now both the same price
Every Fitbit out there is garbage. I have had three different trackers and they only work for about a year then they die all of a sudden. For 2 of the 3 trackers I had it stopped charging at the 1 year mark and I ended up buying another charger which didn’t work. The other one, the screen stopped working at the 8 month mark.
Thanks for helping me decide which one to get my mom for Christmas 1 st video I’ve seen of yours
Lol I bought an inspire hr from Walmart, but didn’t open it. Well today I got a charge 3 and I’m going to return the inspire hr.
Why does it not show battery percentage without being plugged in? Seems so ass backwards.
can someone please tell me how accurate the charge 2 is for calories burned?
the biggest new feature is it records steps while driving
1700 to go 8 miles to post office today
customer support confirms u need to wade thru 5 or 6 screens to set driving as an excercise
then on arrival wade thru the same 5 or 6 screens to turn off driving mode. luckily i only had 3 errands to run so i had to do this 6 times in 2 hours
customer support confirms if u forget u can take a piece of paper and minus the steps calculated in error
My fitness pal links with the Fitbit app. My fitness pal has a lot more food options so continue to use that app and it will automatically sync to the Fitbit app ����
3 things I love and hate about you:
Love Eyes, Hair, Skintone
Hate Teeth, Cheeks, Facial Hair
Why does it not show battery percentage without being plugged in? Seems so ass backwards.
the Fitbit charge 3 for 2019 does have GPS now in the new Fitbit charge 3.
Great review!!
I can’t complain for this fitbit inspire HR.
I didnt buy it. I won this device from cheerios breakfast cereal. I gave mine to my husband. I already have another device. He loves it.
As I get it there won’t be any real 3rd party apps ever, as the watch doesn’t have an OS.. what may be, they sign a contract with some popular app which gets integrated in the Charge core software. There aren’t any apps now to speak of, it are only core featured wrapped as “apps”.
It’s a shame there isn’t a SDK and there won’t ever be, as I love to tinker with my devices.
Hands on review with the brand new Fitbit Charge 3. Is this the BEST budget fitness tracker?!
