I was thinking about getting this:

But now I see the MS Band and FitBit Surge have similar features. What's everyone's opinion?

I like the basic Smart Watch Features. I just want something accurate with a good user interface/app.

Thanks!

    I got the surge mainly for fit reasons and it not being the 1st gen wearable fitness device from the company like the microsoft band is for them.

    I looked at the Garmin and was strongly considering waiting for the new Fitbit (have had Fitbits in the past but didn't replace the last one that I lost), but then I went with Basis Peak. I mainly wanted HRM but I also like a larger display, and so far I really like it. My only complaints are occasional syncing issues and some fluctuation in the sleep tracking. It's a bit unwieldy, too, but that;s the price I pay for the display. I hate chest HRMs, so the wrist one was a huge draw for me, and so far it's been very accurate and consistent.
