I prefer the fitbit one. I don't wear watches or bracelets so the other models are uncomfortable to me. The Fitbit one clips anywhere I need it to and its out of sight, which I also appreciate as well. The only downside is that its small and sometimes I misplace it and have to spend time looking for it.  |

I wore a Flex for a year but didn't like the look of it on my wrist with my watch. I bought the HR when it first came out but returned it because it was way too bulky and awkward fitting. I really like the ability to clip the One on my bra, on my running tights or stick it in my pocket. I did accidentally run it through the washing machine and i killed it so that is one downfall of the One. |

I've had the Flex, the HR and the One  I liked the flex and decided to upgrade to the HR. I liked the HR but had to get it replaced once. Customer service was awesome for me. I now have the One and love it. I don't have to worry about moving my arm which is exactly why I got it. I need to keep my arms quiet when I'm working with my dog so I like just clipping the One to my bra. It also seems to hold a charge longer then the others. |

I have had the One, the Alta, and the Charge 2. I LOVE the Charge 2. The size of the screen is better on my eyes, and I love everything on it. The Alta does not count stairs, and I missed that. The One and Charge 2 count stairs.

I have the Blaze. I love the HR aspect, and it is really weird how it knows what activity you're doing and logs it. I went for a bike ride one day, and I forgot to tell it. When I was done, my watch is congratulating me for me xxx mile bike ride!

Alta does not count any other exercise (non-step) movements. I wear it to my exercise classes and can compare with my friends who have other fitness trackers and the totals from class are always quite different. Just an FYI |

I have the charge HR and like it a lot-I am not interested in a fitness tracker that doesn't track my heart rate as IMO, it's impossible for me to meet my fitness goals unless I track heartrate as well as distance

I've had the one, charge HR, Surge. The Surge has GPS capability without having to keep a phone on you, so that's the one I prefer. If I didn't care about the GPS I'd probably get the Blaze...it does GPS but you have to have it tethered to your phone.

I am trying to find the best price( black friday) on a fitbit one. I have had mine for over 3 years. It has stopped taking a charge. I called customer service and they are giving me a 25% off code. Trying to see if I should just go for it somewhere other than fitbit or if their price will be the best!

I have the charge 2 and I really like it. I had the original charge hr and it was really off but this one is really spot on. I like that there tons of fun bands on amazon or ebay to change up the look. I haven't worn a watch in years and didn't think I missed it but I really like having a watch again.

I have had the One and now use the Flex.
I want either the Alta or Flex 2 for xmas. They both give alerts when you get a text or call which would be great at work since my phone is on silent.
At Walmart the Alta will be $99 and the Flex 2 will be $69.

I "upgraded" from the ONe to the HR. The HR is nice but I didn't like it on my arm and wore it infrequently. While the ONE was so easy and I actually used it!

I was planning on getting a Fitbit One, but my husband ordered me a Bellabeat Leaf for Christmas. I'm not complaining at all, I think the Bellabeat is an awfully cool little device. But the Fitbit One would have met my needs at a lower price.

Just wanted to update about my Charge 2. I just used the GPS feature today when I went jogging. Oh my goodness, it is awesome!! I will be using this feature everyday now. The Charge 2 also receives calls and text messages. I find I can read it much easier on the Charge 2 than the Alta.

The only downside is that its small and sometimes I misplace it and have to spend time looking for it. Yep. DH just lost his a couple days ago. The little rubber dodad was still on his belt but the actual Fitbit is gone. I ordered him a Garmin for his wrist from Amazon and he got it today. For $40 he says he actually likes it. |

I have had 6 or 7 Fitbits and I like my new one a lot. I got the Alta and it works really well for me. It does NOT have a heart rate monitor on it and that was somewhat important to me, but my comfort was more important. I found the Charge HR made my wrist sweat and it was gross feeling. I know it's not just me, but other people I have met didn't like it either. That said I can name at least 10 people I know who like it. Of those 10 people some really love it!
The Alta is a bracelet and not a watch. This is one reason I really like it. You can also get bands to match which I also like. It is very light weight and it will signal to you when your phone is ringing or you are getting a text. It also reminds me to get up and move.
I got it for 25% off and I was happy about that. Fitbit knows I am a loyal customer and they checked my history to see that i have bought many of them over the years. I like this one the best so far.
