Should I get a charge 6?
I tried upgrading from a Charge 2 after it had sync/update issues and hated the newer model (can't recall which but apparently Charge 4 based on review except below.). I particularly want easy use of the silent vibrating alarms and with newer models that lack true mechanical buttons it's real pain.
