Charge 5

I used Fitbit for 12 years, mostly the Charge line, and I've used Xiaomi Band 9 for 1 year. As a new user, ignore complaints by old users. People like me complaining about Fitbit, and Xiaomi people that were using Bands under 6 complaining about Xiaomi ... A lot of that is because stuff changes. Xia

When my Charge 5 died the exchange rate was bad. So I bought a Xiaomi Band 9, for 1/5th the price of the Charge 6. I was with Fitbit for 12 years and I'm glad I tried something else. My Fitbit's usually lasted 3 years / 3 typhoon seasons. So for the price difference I figured even if it only lasted

Well, first of all, realize that there's your battery—and then there's the firmware which estimates your battery's current state of charge. The Charge 5 has long had issues with this. If your unit needs to be recharged every 2-3 days, that may say more about the firmware's estimates than the actual

That actually worked - it is a ridiculous bug/feature they've managed to introduce. Not had this issue until I changed my tracker from a Charge 5 to Sense 2 - all other notifications and comms were working (calls, messages even Alexa) but no way to see what app and control notification from fitbit u

I’m not alone I see My charge 5 will not stay on for more than 3 minutes… Welp I got all the info (word of mouth) I need … I’m going to trash my Fitbit dreams & find another smart watch…. Any recommendations outside of apple

12 years with Fitbit, from the One pedometer through all the versions leading to the Charge line. Due to new ownership, when my Charge 5 died I left Fitbit. (Except I still use my Aria scale, which has also had the data nerfed so I'm looking to get a newer body composition scale) As a new user, with

My Charge 2 and 5 don't have one exercise screen, they have many. One has heart rate info, another has distance, another has I don't remember ... maybe 5 different screens. I just want to see my HR, maybe occasionally distance or exercise time. Sometimes when you tap to open it shifts to the next sc

I’ve had my charge 6 since 2023 and have never had a problem. I’ve replaced the band recently, but that’s all the problems I’ve had. My charge 5 went out at 2 years. The only issues I have with Fitbit itself is the new features like: Cardio Load, Daily readiness, ect.

Yes it is the Vivoactive 4S-a hand me down from my daughter. It tracks calories burned all day on the home page of the app. I haven’t got it completely set up but I am liking it so far. It seems to be very comparable to my Charge 5 that just died so far, without the app issues and other problems wit
