Charge Small Band upgrade to Charge HR Small or Large?

joshuapowell1989

I currently have a Charge and have it on the last and third fixing which gives me room for two fingers underneath it (though tight). I am going to upgrade to the Charge HR but not sure what band size to get.
Has anyone upgraded from a Charge to a Charge HR? if so what size band did you get and how does it fit in comparison?

Thanks

I haven't had a Charge, but I do have a Charge HR in a size Large. It has a regular watchband type fastener, which I understand is different from the Charge. The difference between the smallest and largest settings is well over an inch and there are more than 3 possible settings. There is a sizing guide at the Fitbit online store and you can even print out gauge that you can wrap around your wrist to choose.

However, since the Fitbit online store says that the Charge size small is for wrists up to 6.5" inches and the Charge HR size small is for wrists up to 6.2" and you say that your size small Charge is barely big enough, it sounds like you need a large in the HR.

I'm sure you already know this, but throwing it out, just in case... They have sizing guides on the fitbit website for each type of band, because the sizing does run different between models. I had to print one off because I was concerned about maybe being between 2 sizes. If you have access to a Best Buy or similar store, the display setting in my store also had a size guide where you could put your wrist on a graph to show you which size to get (graph is also on the side of the Charge HR box).

I like the clasp on the Charge HR since it is a regular watch clasp. This is my first day with my Charge HR and I am REALLY happy with it so far (upgrading from a Fitbit One clip-on). I've done a manual HR check compared to the watch a couple times, and it has been right-on. Haven't tested it while working out (yet).

I ended up getting the Surge in Large, fits well
