Jawbone or Fitbit

What I like about Fitbit is the readouts directly on the device. Started with the One to track whether I was hitting the 10000 step goal, and liked that it also showed time, calories and sleep time. The Charge HR was my birthday gift, especially requested by me because I discovered my heartbeat elevates more walking briskly uphill than perhaps it should. I've really liked both devices, and my husband likes his One. Hopefully someone will let you know their experience with the jawbone.

Did the Jawbone and it broke after 1 month! They wouldn't send me a new one because I couldn't find the receipt. Then I did some reading and I found the FitBit is a lot more durable than the Jawbone... If I could do it all over again, I would have gone with the FitBIt.

I've been having a lot of fun with my fitbit charge hr. The only problem I have sometimes is syncing data to my phone but fitbit came out out this week with an update for android so it's been a lot better with the update!

ive recently bought the fitbit charge hr and love it!
any tracker will register steps4 from repetitive arm movement. but i have set mine as though i wear it on my dominant hand and its pretty accurate now.
love the workout function so i can see how many cals.i burn and what heart rate zone im in at the gym on certain equipment. amd the hr accuracy is pretty good compared to the gym equipments hr.

I've been having this internal struggle for 6 months. As of now, Fitbit Charge (with or without HR) is best option. I would go with Jawbone UP3, but that was supposed to be shipped in December and is now postponed until April. Huge disappointment. The biggest thing for me was durability in water. Not that I swim a lot or need to take showers with it, but from what I've heard, fitbit Charge have not done well around water (just my friends' experience), which Jawbones UP3 is supposedly meant for swimming - which is nice for those that spend a lot of time doing house/yard work that may require more submersion than just "splashing". But since you want something now, I'd say fitbit, by far compared to anything else. Especially if you're not going for a futuristic plastic/steel look, want some comfort, and want a more discreet tracker compared to the more "smart" models with all the bells and whistles (which are nice, but are hard to conceal and catch and scratch more easily)

I have a Fitbit Flex & a Jawbone UP24. (I'm a data nerd.) I love the UP app, but Jawbone's customer service is awful. My band broke last month, and I'm still waiting for a replacement.
