I got one today and my first impression is that it's very comfortable to wear. Not sure how well it works yet but I've heard good things.0

I got the Charge HR in black about two weeks ago and I love it. It counts my steps, calories burned, stairs, distance walked/ran, of course heart rate (I find it to be pretty accurate), quality of sleep, and it automatically picks up your workouts. It also tells you who is calling your phone (but not texts or anything like that). It integrates with MFP really well. It's comfortable too. No complaints at all.0

It's my new fashion accessory and I love it. Love that is also syncs with MFP. Oh and I have the Fitbit Charge.0

If you have the money I highly recommend the fitbit surge!0

I have a FitBit One. It's ok, but has some quirks. The "stair" function is off-- it calculates how many flights you've taken by sensing a change in pressure accompanied by the right type of movement. So, taking a walk on level ground when it's windy out (causing a change in the pressure) will make it count flights of stairs. Driving up a hill will make it count a flight of stairs, etc. There's no way to correct it.
As a pedometer it works great. Holds its charge for a week or longer. The app for it is also very quirky and crashes a lot.0 -
I have fitbit if anybody wants to add me for a work out buddy.0

I just got the Flex yesterday. It syncs with MFP nicely...love it so far.0
-
I have the Flex and I love it but I don't understand the calories adjustment for Fitbit on MFP. I walked 3 miles and it gave me 88 calories according to Flex it would be 300? Any feedback appreciated0

I've had a flex for a couple of years now. I love it.0

Just got mine for my birthday have to figure it out yet.0

I have a Charge, love the way it syncs with mfp, the silent alarm and phone alert are an added bonus0

For me the main benefit is that it tells me how many calories I burn for given day, helping me to eat at a deficit. You receive a weekly email with the record of calories in and calories out too. That's all what matters to me0

So I am actually looking at purchasing the Fitbit Surge (https://www.fitbit.com/surge#i.w26bjh13uldc6x). It looks like it could track a lot more information than just steps. Does anyone here have one of these? I just need to know if it is worth the money.0

I have the charge and love it! Looking for more friends on there to do daily and weekly challenges to help me do more. So if you do have one add me so we can compete.0

I just bought the Charge HR in black (love the plum color but it's back ordered until June). I was looking into buying a heart rate monitor and decided to buy this one. I've only had it two days. It's very comfortable and keeps you accountable. I was surprised at which parts of my day I am not moving much. I teach first grade and feel busy all day-- but there are many times I'm not actually moving. By 8:00 last night I only had 6,400 steps. I ended up jogging in front of the TV at 11:00 determined to get to 10,000. It easily syncs with MFP. I also like the charts and graphs provided on the Fitbit website. The Charge HR calculates total calories burned for the day. It's nice to see the day's deficit. I would highly recommend getting one.0
