Fitbit Best Trackers

I have a Fitbit charge HR that I got in 2015. Am considering upgrading as it’s gotten all scratched up and takes forever to sync. It used to sync automatically but now I always have to sync manually (even though I have the automatic sync selected).

Any suggestions on a new one? What are opinions on the watches?

Thanks much and happy workouts!

What are you looking to get out of it?
Makes a big difference on usage.

Mainly daily life and walking more?

Lots of hard workouts weekly, what kinds?

Are the days vastly different that knowing your eating goals are being adjusted as the day goes on will really change your eating choices?

I am in the same boat. My HR is pretty beaten up, and its slow.

I am leaning towards the alta for a number of reasons.
1) I mostly use it for walking, so HR isn't a big deal for me
2) It isn't super pricy
3) It is thin, I have little wrists and even the HR is really clunky, large, and not really my aesthetic.

Your usage and wants might make a different model right for you, but this is what my mind is thinking.

Alta. I got one for Christmas. I had the Charge HR but didn't like the band. The Alta is comfortable. Easier to strap on too. I like the Alta face better than the Charge too. Much easier to read, I feel, except in bright sunshine. That's the only drawback to me.

I also got a set of different colored bands. So easy to change them out. Not an option with the Charge.

Really pleased with my Alta. There is an Alta HR if that feature is something you are looking for.
