I have a Fitbit charge hr now and I have noticed that is over counting my steps by about 1500 compared to my other step counters is anyone else having this problem ? it's not a big deal but it gives me to many calories burned each day
I set it to the dominant hand setting but it didn't help.
Any ideas?

The step count is just a metric. All that matters is the accuracy of your burn.
Trust your Fitbit for several weeks, then reevaluate your progress. I lost the weight & have maintained for a year—first with a Flex, now with a Charge HR.
