Which fitbit?

Any recommedation on which fitbit to get?

I def. Want one that goes on your wrist, and shows the steps there without having to log onto anything to see it.

Not sure if I should go for the highest model or not. Is it really needed?

Which one do you have and do you like it?

I had the Alta briefly, but now have an Alta HR on order.

It really depends on what you want it to do.
My parents have the Charge 2 HR. Its really nice, large display but its too bulky for me and was uncomfortable with my button down dress shirts, it wore like a watch. I settled for the Alta when I ordered it in Feb. However, they came out with the Alta HR a few weeks after and So I returned the Alta in favor of getting the Heart Rate monitor version.

I really like the idea of monitoring my heart rate, when its elivated and such. Also I was finding the sleep tracking wasn't as accurate as I'd like, and I'm hoping with the HR monitor the tracking would be more accurate.

My DH has the Fitbit Charge 2, he's happy with it. Looks like a wristwatch.

Re: Which fitbit?

I know you wanted one that went on your wrist, so my recommendation is not helpful. Chat Icon But I love the One. I've had it for over 4 years...wow, I've worn it every day. I honestly couldn't wear a Fitbit that went on my wrist. I would find it annoying and wouldn't wear it as much. (I don't wear a watch and when I get home I take off my jewelry....)

Thankfully I've never lost mine, but my friend has lost hers. If you have the One - being it's bluetooth enabled there is actually an app to find it. Chat Icon But it wouldn't work for your lost Zips. Chat Icon

Re: Which fitbit?

Thanks for this!! looks like the charge will track running and biking and the alta will not. I might be leaning towards the charge 2.
