From the Manufacturer β€’ Certain features like Auto Sleep Tracking and SmartTrack may be disabled when using this accessory. Classic accessory bands are the recommended accessory for high intensity workouts and sleep tracking. β€’ Do not wear the Flex 2 Pendant accessory while sleeping or during high intensity activity, as doing so could create a choking hazard. β€’ Flex 2 Pendant accessories contain magnets. Magnets may interfere with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other medical devices. Consult your physician and the manufacturer of your medical device before using to determine if these accessories are safe for you. If the accessories may be interfering with your pacemaker, defibrillator, or other medical device, do not wear the accessories. P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Buying Guide Move it up: Since blood increases further up your arm, wear your tracker higher on your wrist to improve the heart rate signal during workouts. Start by moving the device up to three finger widths above your wrist bone, then experiment with slightly lower placement. Keep it secure: The less your tracker moves during exercise, the more chance you have of maintaining a heart rate signal throughout the activity. Do not wear the band too tightly, as this can restrict blood flow and goes against our wear and care guidelines. Hold steady for ten seconds: High intensity exercises or activities that cause you to keep your wrist bent (like push-ups) or move your arms vigorously (like dance) may interfere with heart rate signals. If you stop seeing a signal during these types of activities, hold your wrist steady for ten seconds during breaks to get your reading. Manufacturer Contact Information Customers contact: support@fitbit.com See more Review: great product, great company, great customer service - So. I debated and debated, spent probably four days doing deep research on these and on other similar products from different companies. Wound up on this one for several reasons, and I am VERY pleased with my purchase!! PROS: The SOFTWARE on this thing is extremely helpful and easy to navigate. There are fields to log your weight, body fat %, water consumed, and also to track your food consumed. The fitbit lets you set a goal of your goal weight and how soon you want to be there, and will help you by telling you approximately how many calories you have burned so that when you input your food consumed it lets you know whether you're under-track, on-track, or over-track. Makes it very easy to know your calorie deficit to cut weight. The sleep tracking is great, as well! It seems pretty darn accurate in terms of only starting when you actually fall asleep and not just when you lie down (which was one thing I was curious about). The caller ID function works well (provided your phone is nearby), and is handy in lots of instances, not just while working out. I sprung for the charge over the flex because of this function (I cannot miss work calls), and also because I wanted to be able to see my step count, and distance at a touch instead of through my phone. If you don't need so much instant gratification, you would probably be happy with the Flex. It has the same software. I decided on charge vs. Charge HR because the HR function is said to be MUCH less comfortable to wear, and the technology for HR monitoring in the wrist is still not where it could be quite yet. CONS: My main problem with this device, and my *WARNING TO POTENTIAL BUYERS* is that if you are a biker or a skater or do any kind of cardio besides running or jogging, there are some issues with tracking steps. So to explain, I have bad joints so I need low-impact cardio, aka an elliptical machine. I have an iphone6 with a (relatively accurate) pedometer built in. When I use the elliptical, if I have my hands stationary on the machine, and sometimes even while they're on the handles, it doesn't count all of the steps. So I now use the elliptical with my hands at my waist as though I was running/jogging. This is the only major issue I have. This is great for runners and joggers, noooooot quite as accurate for ellipticals, biking, etc. I heard lots of people talk about how the lens is easily scratched, I thought this was silly until about a month in and I rubbed it against the plastic lining of a storage tote and now there's a scuff on the screen. Seems like that wouldn't have done it, so I see what they mean. If you are super active (which, obviously you are, or would like to be if you are buying this) just be aware of it on your wrist and be careful! Overall: I highly suggest this fitbit if you intend to get fit, or are interested in your health and need a bit of help. I love it and never take it off except for when I shower (and I charge it then, it charges VERY fast and lasts about five days for me if I don't check it too much) Update 12/5: so the band which originally made this look sleek and simple is falling apart and now makes it look sloppy and messy. There have been a couple occasions where after fully charging it, it would be dead with no battery charge left. Odd. I have tried to exchange it for another one via desertcart, and was told they only provide a 30 day window. Ugh. If you live an active lifestyle (which you probably do or else you wouldn't be looking at this item), beware that it doesn't stand up to daily wear and tear for too long. Update update 12/20: I contacted Fitbit about the issue I was having and they are mailing me a replacement Charge at no cost! They were very friendly, and quick to respond and have definitely won my respect, in a world where so many companies take your money and then turn a blind eye to your grievances. If you've been on the fence, get one! If it breaks, they'll take good care of you. Review: Third FitBit Product - All Working Great - Once connected to the Fitbit site, I was able to quickly replace my wife's "Flex" with her new "Charge" then re-gift and setup her old "Flex" for another family member. A note to those looking for accuracy. Take the time to setup your account. The more accurate you are with your numbers (weight, sex, stride length, etc.) the more accurate your Fitbit becomes. Using it out of the box is fine as it is consistent allowing you to compare from day to day. Bottom line, if it gets you moving more, than all the better. Both the "Flex" and the "Charge" are fairly new arrivals to my family - about six months. My third product is the "Force" which is over a year old. This was a gift so I did not know what to expect, but I was intrigued and soon learned its value. The "Charge" is the replacement to the "Force" therefore I provide the following lessons learned with my experiences with the "Force" and expect the "Charge" to be very similar if not identical. Walking: Very accurate. At first, I often watched the step counter while I walked - both on the device and on my phone app. I was impressed with the accuracy of the step counter with or without swinging my arm. Of all the pedometers I have used, this continues to be the most accurate and trusted. Cheating the Software: Of course this is possible. You can get "bonus" steps (my words - not theirs) for shaking the device. The device is not too sensitive to shaking but does give you "bonus" steps. if you are concerned about these then I suggest that you bump up your daily step goal. Watch: The clock on this device is synced to my phone so it is as accurate as my service provider. It has not (yet) replaced my watch. In-Coming Calls: The "Force" received a firmware update this fall and started to show my in-coming calls on the "Force" display. I was pleasantly surprised as my phone is often kept on silent. The very useful "activity minutes" display was removed. The claim was that calculating the activity minutes was best left to the phone app, which is true as you use the app to record your exercise. However, I suspect that it may have also been a firmware size issue on the device and something had to make way for the in-coming calls. Either way - it was a fair trade and I greatly appreciate being able to see who it calling without interrupting my meetings. Sleep Calculator: My wife LOVES this feature, but I only have one word for it: Freaky. It records my every movement during sleep which is valuable but my subconscious seems to sense that the device is recording my every movement. The "Flex" and "Charge" also knows when you are sleeping and knows whey you are awake. They have a manual start/stop mode but you do not need to use it - its all automatic. The start/stop times seem to be very accurate and the device won't give me any auto sleep credit if I take it off at night. Like I said - Freaky. Cycling: My wife and I cycle often so my advice here is to take it off, enjoy the ride and enter your exercise in the phone app. This is the most accurate for your step counter and your calories burned. You can wear it and get the "bonus" from the road/trail or wear it on your ankle where it does a nice job of counting revolutions. But for me, I have a cycle computer that gives me all the information I need about my rides. Swimming: Never used. My simple thought here is that I don't step when I swim so there is nothing to count. Running: We don't. Suggestions for Fitbit. You have something awesome here, but I wonder how long you will be able to stay ahead of the competition. You seem to be reluctant to integrate with other apps and personal fitness devices are about to take a giant leap forward. Right now these devices integrate with a larger host device for social integration, storage, and more accurate calculations. I am looking for devices capable of doing this with minimal host integration. I would not expect this device to replace my phone but it should be able to add significant value without my phone. I am not sure I will move up to your "HR" or "Surge" models as much now depends on where the market takes these devices. ## Features - Charge syncs automatically and wirelessly to tablets, computers and 150+ leading iOS, Android and Windows smartphones using Bluetooth 4.0 wireless technology.

Bought this as a gift for my wife in Dec 2015 after having purchased my own in July 2015, battery supposed to last for at least 3-4 days started draining completely in 12 hours after a couple of months usage. So you essentially had to constantly charge the item (not ideal for a fitness tracker when you are actually supposed to be moving around with it). Customer service was great - diagnosed the issue remotely and found the battery defective (happens to MOST of their trackers - just check the online fitbit forums and amazon.com reviews). Replaced the tracker since it was in the warranty period (of just one year). My own tracker bought in July 2015 was replaced once due to a bubbling issue on the strap (also happens to MOST of their trackers) (photo attached). Replaced once after good experience with aforementioned customer service - and then the new one had battery problems within 3 months but the original one year warranty had expired and company refused to replace or repair. Instead they offered me a 25% discount on a NEW tracker. So the business model is "first sell a tracker for a year and then upsell after it inevitably fails". Wow....as if I will buy a new tracker from them after this experience. This is from a publicly listed US company - can't believe it. Moral of the story: Buy cheaper trackers which do the same job or go for better brands like Garmin and the like. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.in/products/9065296-fitbit-charge-wireless-activity-wristband-slate-small](https://www.desertcart.in/products/9065296-fitbit-charge-wireless-activity-wristband-slate-small) --- *Product available on Desertcart India* *Store origin: IN* *Last updated: 2026-05-23*
