Fitbit Charge 4 Fitness and Activity Tracker with Built-in GPS, Heart Rate, Sleep & Swim Tracking, Rosewood/Rosewood, One Size (S &L Bands Included)

First of all, the color was listed as Rosewood, which I took to be a red-brown , but is actually dark purple (eggplant). Fine, I wanted to use it right away, so I kept it. The bigger issue, is that I’ve only had it for 6 months and it’s broken already! I was walking and suddenly it fell off. I picked it up and discovered that the part of the fit bit that goes inside one end of the band had cracked in half. To make matters worse, when it hit the ground, the part that had cracked off inside the band was dislodged and I couldn’t find it in the dark. For over $120, I expect something to last longer than 6 months.UPDATE (5/27/22)I used my Fitbit app to contact customer service and explained my problem. The representative asked me to send a photo and within a few minutes was told I would be sent a new device! It was a very simple process and the rep was very courteous. It’s nice to know that there are still companies that stand behind their products!

This product does everything that it says it does and is very easy to use. The sleep tracking has been extremely beneficial, as have the customizable alarms that wake you up from light sleep so that it’s easier to get up in the morning. The alarms are also nice because they work by vibrating, so there isn’t a loud noise that would wake anyone you’re living with. The heart rate monitor is fairly accurate, as is the pedometer and altimeter. The Active Zone tracking system was a great idea, and it makes it easy to tell how much quality exercise I’m getting in a week. The sedentary reminders are also really nice as someone who spends a lot of time at a desk. So far, everything has worked really well and with great accuracy, and it has helped me start getting in shape and start becoming healthier all-around using the breathing and mindfulness exercises. I would strongly recommend this watch to anyone who is looking to be healthier and doesn’t know where to start, or who wants to track their current health, or who wants to track how they’re responding to a new medication, etc. I love this watch, and it does a lot for the price. I almost bought the Inspire 2, but I’m glad I paid the extra money for all of the extra features on this watch.

I missed having my charge 4 after losing my first one. Nice to have this new one.

Love this product!! I was of the opinion that I didn’t need one of these, didn’t need to jump on the Fitbit fad. I have an iphone and try to always keep it on me and track my steps and log my cycling. I have for years, and it’s cool to see my annual step count go up steadily over the last 4 years. I got the Fitbit because someone told me about the sleep function and at the time I was having spells of sleepless nights. I am SO glad I did, it’s awesome I love it!! I love getting to 10,000 steps a day and the little motivational buzz when you get there – you just want to throw your hands in the air and congratulate yourself, everyday! I’ve also had some weeks where I hit 100,000 steps, which is AWESOME! I’m not a die hard exerciser or gym rat or anything, but I love walking/hiking and cycling. It very much meets my need!! The sleep tracker is cool too, however it’s not 100% accurate. It seems okay at night, but if I wake up at say 5:30am and lay in bed for another 30 min – it still tracks that extra 30 min as sleep. Or if my toddler wakes me up at 2am, then I can’t fall back asleep for an hour – it still tracks that hour as sleep. It’s still cool and I like the sleep function, but with a grain of salt. This happens regardless of if I adjust the sleep sensitivity setting or the tightness of the band. All in all, highly recommend this product!!

Purchased in April of 2021. Great for fitness tracking, sleep, etc. Better than more expensive Fitbits. In July of 2022, the connection to the band broke off. Not the band, I’ve gone through a number of bands, but the connector that goes from band to watch. Researched replacing watch. Decided best option was super glue band to connector. Now October 2022, band connector to watch itself has broken…researching replacements and still not to keep on any of the available upgrades, so I’ve now super glued two parts together. This is probably the last thing I can glue before watch definitely needs replacement. I’ll probably buy the charge 4 again, because none of the Fitbit newer models seem to have all the features that the charge 4 has…possibly I should just glue the face to my arm
