Has anyone used these side by side and can compare steps? All of the reviews talk about everything except which one might be more accurate with the steps.

    so NO ONE replied to this? Yikes.

    Well, I've had both of them on and as much as I LOVE Polar products, I'm thinking I will stick with my FitBit for a variety of reasons and just keep using my Polar FT4 for all HRM purposes. Sorry Polar Loop.

    I have a Fitbit and HAD a Polar Loop. I emphasize it because I didn't like it much and not so much the product, I actually thought it was better for step counting than the Fitbit and had a lot of advantages with the display. However, it was a pain when it came to using the software and had a lot of issues synching with my Galaxy 5. If it wasn't for that I would go with the Polar but neither of them is actually worth the inflated price IMHO.

    They're expensive, why would people have both at once?

    Counting steps is pretty basic. They all use an accelerometer. I'd be more concerned with their other abilities.

    Since you have both it's pretty easy to test. Walk 100 steps with both on. See how many steps each counted.
