new Fitbits leaked

ashleyShades

Has anyone seen the new Fitbits that were leaked? I have a Flex and I like it, but I wanted the Force before they pulled it from shelves.

Are you going to be purchasing or upgrading your Fitbit?

I wouldn't consider them leaked since Fitbit is advertising them on their website.

Yes I'm looking at the Surge. It looks like my ideal fitness tracker.

I love my fitbit One but it's a couple of years old now so if/when I replace it the Surge looks like the one for me as it has all the features I like in the One (step count, elevation count, vibrating alarm) plus more.

Didn't see that yet. I just saw a couple articles online that Brookstone accidentally leaked photos. Whoops.

It's not that big of a deal, just thought you'd like to know. In fact, the Charge is actually out. The Charge HR and Surge are going to be released in "early 2015".

Charge - $130
Charge HR - $150
Surge - $250

Im looking at Charge HR or Surge... my Flex is starting to give me battery issues but I like the app and online dashboards.

I've been on the list for the Surge when it is released. Hoped to get a preview unit for review but did not get a response this time, so just waiting....

Had the Force and loved it, with the caveats that it needed to included a HRM and a bigger interface for those of us with older eyes. The Surge "Fits" the "Bits" now.

Can't wait to try it.

I won't ever be trying another Fitbit product. Had the Force before it was recalled, didn't like how the company handled the whole recall. Never again will they be getting my money.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience with them. I had to have my Flex replaced and they handled it pretty promptly and sent me a new one.

Brookstone is shipping the Surge out now.
