Fitbit Charge 6 Fitness Tracker with Google apps, Heart Rate on Exercise Equipment, 6-Months Premium Membership Included, GPS, Health Tools and More, Gold/Coral, One Size (S & L Bands Included)

Ah, the Fitbit Charge 6—your new best frenemy in the battle for better health (and the approval of your health insurance company). Right out of the box, it’s sleek, stylish, and ready to broadcast your every step, heart rate spike, and moment of despair to the digital overlords.Activity Tracking:This thing tracks your steps, your sleep, your workouts, and probably your grocery runs when you’re just trying to survive the week. Gone are the days of skipping the gym without consequence—your Fitbit will ensure Big Health Insurance knows exactly how much effort you’re putting in. But hey, at least it’s motivation to hit those 10,000 steps, right?Stress Monitoring:The Charge 6 is especially handy at work. Having a rough day? Bam! Your Fitbit buzzes: “You seem stressed. Maybe try some breathing exercises?” Oh, thank you, electronic wrist therapist. My boss might be yelling, but at least my wearable is invested in my mental well-being. It’s like having a tiny, passive-aggressive life coach strapped to your arm.Battery Life:It lasts forever—or at least long enough to capture every second of your highly active Netflix binging sessions, which apparently doesn’t count as cardio. Thanks for the judgment, Fitbit.Other Features:The heart rate monitor is great. It even noticed my heart doing gymnastics during my last performance review. And the notifications? Perfect for reminding me to “move” when I’m clearly busy trying to avoid the existential dread of adulthood.Final Thoughts:The Fitbit Charge 6 is everything I expected and more: a health guru, a tattletale, and a sassy life coach rolled into one. If you want to stay fit, stay accountable, and let your insurance provider feel like a proud parent, this is the tracker for you. Just remember, when it buzzes “relax,” it doesn’t mean “quit your job,” no matter how tempting that sounds.4/5 stars. One star deducted for knowing too much about me. Just kidding, it’s keeping my health insurance costs lower - that’s something right???

I love this product, but this morning it just stopped working. I think I didn’t set the water lock. I love my Fitbit so much I ordered a replacement. Lesson learned about the water lock!

The media could not be loaded. Thankful it made it in one piece. My box was beat you know what. The item itself was ok but wowza. She had a ruuffff trip gettin here (which is the only reason it got 4 instead of 5 stars). Anyway...I had a Fitbit back in the day and loved it. I wanted to start tracking my steps in an attempt to get healthier. I have some heart issues that I would like to start monitoring more closely and have also found the sleep tracker to be quite enlightening. This does all things necessary (for me) without the constant need to look at all the tech stuff that an Apple Watch offers. It DOES have the capability of seeing calls and texts but I silenced that, lol. Overall, I am happy with my purchase so far.

I had an old Fitbit Charge HR years ago and used it for a couple years. I replaced it with an Apple Watch, but Apple never really gave me the health data I wanted. I got this a bit ago and LOVE it so far for all the reasons I disliked Apple.Pros: Charge lasts a loooong time, which means more data since you’re not taking it off daily to charge. Heart rate monitoring is continuous. Simple display allows you to focus on specific health data. Love the sleep data too! Also, it has a true sleep mode that doesn’t light up at all at night compared to Apple, which still has some brightness in my experience.Cons: connection to phone is a bit finicky, but never lags too long for me personally. Doesn’t connect to Spotify, a bit of a bummer, but not a priority for me. Also, have to pay for premium to access all the data, but with such an inexpensive device, this isn’t a dealbreaker for me either.Overall, the Charge 6 is super lightweight, comfortable, and good quality! I’m so impressed at this price point.

Stay Away! This fitness tracker is THIRSTY!!! It's thirsty for your personal health data and phone battery like a single guy on ladies night.This piece of garbage will DRAIN your phone's battery unless you go online, find out about it's 25 secret menus and how to open them, open up all 25 secret menus and turn off all the ways it's taking your data and sending it to "Google Labs." Even when you manage to turn off the 257 ways it's collecting and selling your data, it will still find ways around this, but you will only know because your phone's battery will all of a sudden be at like 12% at 9 am, which means another "fun" hour of you reading Reddit posts to find out which new secret menus you have to find to turn back off all the crap you already did.This tracker sucks. I admit that the features are there, I mean yeah it tracks steps, heart rate, sleep etc. But it also gives you bogus scores on metrics not recognized by ACTUAL SCIENCE such as your daily "readiness" score based on nothing more than flim flammery and an idea cooked up by a "scientists at Google Labs, a subsidiary of Doofensmertz Labs. So if this tracker decides your heart rate was 2 bpm higher this morning than usual and your skin temp was 2 degrees colder, it will tell you that you are only 48% ready for today. This is NOT science nor science based, it's made up magical thinking and a perfect example of a self-fulfilling prophecy.Listen folks, I admit that it does MOST of what it says it does, but it also doesn't do a lot of things it says (daily readiness is not based on science, and it also somehow tracks your mindfullness??? Some of that crap may be useful to some people I guess. Based on my experience, 5 months using it daily, there's only one thing I can really count on it to do: continually find ways to drain the life out of my battery like no one's business--I'm talking drained from 109%=down to 27% within 4 hours, no joke nor exaggeration!It's clear to me that this mistake, I mean fitness tracker, was really only designed to do one thing: steal, I mean collect, your personal health data and send it to a "lab" (what REAL scientists work at "Google Labs"?) where they monetize it. And what do you get? Well you get a subpar product, with a cool colored band (okay, yeah I do love the coral band, but that's it) at a relatively cheap price (you pay them back with giving them a constant flow of free health data to sell) that drains your battery, steals your personal health data, and all because it is using lazy, crappy programming on the app, which sucks unless you pay a yearly fee to make it suck just a little less. Buy my used one, it's for sale on the marketplace. I'm done with such a broken product. But if you're smart you probably shouldn't buy mine. You should buy ANY other fitness tracker out there. Seriously. Any. Other. Health tracker. Anything. Even some of brand Chinese crap tief to an old piece of rubber would probably work better than this Google/Fitbit mistake...I mean collab. Stay away! You're welcome!
