Thinking of buying a Fitbit Charge HR - thoughts and experiences anyone?

I've always found calorie counting useful and I'm a sucker for statistics and for analysing things so I'm hoping a fitness watch like this might help me keep more motivated while losing weight.

Has anyone who's used any of them git any good advice?

I'm mainly looking at the Fitbit Charge HR one because I think they're a bit pointless without the heart rate monitor but I'm open to suggestions so long as they're under the £120 price tag!

Totally worth it in my opinion. I have had a fit bit for over 2 years now. The single best motivator I have to make me move more. I started out with a fit bit one, then the force, now the charge HR. My HR was $150.00 with tax US, but I love the heart rate monitor function and worth it for me.

I've had a charge hr since February and I enjoy it. The hr is almost spot on and its fun to look at my stats and changes throughout the day.

Its a bit funky when driving because the bumps count as steps but if you take it for what it's worth its a pretty cool gadget. don't hold high expectations, don't expect complete accuracy, just use it as a baseline guide for your daily activity and I think you'll enjoy it. if you're looking for something spot on that tells you exactly how many steps you took throughout the day then look elsewhere because you will just be frustrated. But for what it is and its price point I like mine
