FIT AF
Love my fitbit - I have never had a problem with it and its encouraged me to live a healthier lifestyle.The battery lasts 5 days, its small and looks more like an accessory than a fitness watch. Also very easy to clean :)

Was great till,the iOS update
I was l omg this product until my iOS update on my phone. Now I have trouble syncing, my alarms don’t come up and I can’t reactivate my notifications. No help to be had anywhere and one side is blaming the other and back again.

Great purchase for my 10 year old
My son didn't fit the kids bands so we chose to get an adult one and it hasnt skipped a beat. It is waterproof as well so he doesnt have to take it off in the bath or shower

Awesome fitness tracker/watch and good price.
Good reliable waterproof fitness tracker. Various watch face options great for visually impaired. Easy to set up and App compatability excellent with range of 'optional' extras available (none of which I have the need to use). Good battery time (6 days using all exercise functions) and quick to charge. A good variety of optional bands and face surrounds available online to personalise totally.

Great, but wish the screen was less prone to scratches
Have been wearing it for a month now, love the sleep tracking function, notifications (though Bluetooth range isn’t too great, but they still work); love the counting itself, how much more I can get from the app compared to my old One! Just concerned that the screen is already slightly scratched and with wearing it 24/7 it can get damaged badly real soon!

Great watch
Purchased 2 for my children, they love their watches. Set up was not completely straight forward but eventually worked it out. Connects to app on iPhone/iPad. Tracks heart rate, steps taken, sleep and lots more. Needs charging once a week.

Took it back for refund
I bought a Fitbit Inspire HR after checking that it is compatible with my iPadPro 9.7. Fitbit website states it is compatible, but it isn’t. I had to load firmware from someone else’s device before I could turn it on, then had trouble getting it to sync. Eventually worked but then I tried to change the clock face and ended up with an error message that I could not get rid of, despite following all instructions. After several days of mucking around and communicating with a help desk that just sends links to online information that you have a...Read more
lready tried, I gave up and took it back for refund. The tech guy at the retailer said he had one but had nothing but trouble so he got a refund on his too. There were also several posts on the Fitbit community page where others had the same issues and never got them resolved. Definitely did not get if you are trying to use the app on an iPadPro 9.7!Purchased in December 2021 at Officeworks Physical store for A$118.00.

Rip Off
I searched for a step tracker that does NOT have a silly plastic watch - i want a clip and only a clip.
Inspire has a clip perfect - it is being discontinued but Inspire HR is the only product left. I got the more expensive Fitbit HR this afternoon & went online to order the clip as JB Hifi do not sell the clips.
Fitbit have stopped the clips! What a rip off - i have paid $180 for a useless product.
A LOT of people do not want to look ridiculous wearing a plastic tacky thing around their wrists but want to discreetly, it is my business not an...Read more

Was great for the short while it lasted.
My Grandma and I both got these fitbits to start exciting together. (The normal ones, the the heart rate ones). And it was great. We made a thing to try and beat each other’s steps and activity each day. But literally after only 8 and a bit months. They BOTH died. BOTH OF THEM. I thought that was odd. Like literally 2 weeks apart. I mean we bought them at the same time, so maybe they were part of a bad batch or something. But we were really quite disappointed about that.
We’ve gone with Garmin this time.
Look this isn’t meant to be a bad review. I know people who’ve had thier fitbits for almost 2 years. And they were great while they lasted.

Good Product
This product is good and quite good automatically tracking my workouts. I have found issues though when running. I'll set it up on the run setting and a few minutes into my run I'll go to check the timer and its turned off my run tracker. I'm not sure what is happening. Maybe I run too slowly but it stays on when I walk...

Makes people move.
This was purchased for my partner who is somewhat uninspired by any exercise. The colours are nice with lilac her favourite and the HR function something she now looks at. She checks the app, her sleep, and tries to get her steps up every day. Essentially the tracker does what it's been designed to do and perhaps targeted at - those who simply need to move more and they certainly outnumber those who already move enough. This new release was a little on the expensive side given it's functions are no different to Alta HR and so it comes down to the look when purchasing - Inspire is new, somewhat dressy, more wearable. makes a great gift, for a person who needs it and would use it.

Great for my teenage niece. Quality entry level tracker
The inspire series does it right for a basic tracker and more. First it is more slim which suited my teenage niece better than the rest i looked at. Its all there. Yes, it doesn't have the heart rate, but this wasn't needed. A great basic tracker for the price to helps her track her steps. Plus, the band is excellent and fits well. A well quality basic tracker with great design and features.

Wish I had of purchased sooner!
Love everything about this little number. Being pregnant, I was just looking for something to track my heart rate & steps.. nothing too complicated or fancy. I chose this particular model as it did both of these things and I liked the fact that its slim and subtle on my tiny wrists.. Not after that giant watch face look.
Very happy with the design and ease of use, and the fit bit app is well designed & user friendly. I'm most impressed by some of the features I didn't even know I needed! The most impressive being the sleep tracker. Knowing how...Read more

Makes getting fit so easy
Have had other fitness trackers that were OK but the Inspire HR is the best one yet. Love the display especially the heart rate monitor. More comfortable to wear in bed.

Unable to charge from new
I had read in articles that the Fitbit Inspire HR is notorious for charging problems. Well they were right. Right out of the box, the charging port is very ill fitting and to get the pins to align you have to hold it very still in your hand. If you lie it down, the magnetic charger falls off. So I'm holding this unit for 10 minutes and it charges to 14%. Keep holding it for an hour while I read a blog and it never moved off 14%. Tried again for 15 minutes, the smiley face came up, it buzzed and acted as though it was charging but it never did c...Read more
harge past the 14%. That's the third and last fitbit I ever buy. My last HR Charge stopped charging after 4 weeks. Fortunately the Good Guys gave me a full refund so no damage done. My advice is to shop for any other fitness unit EXCEPT for Fitbit. They are frought with problems.Purchased in June 2021.

Sleek and Simple Fitbit Cost Effective Many Features Swim Proof
If you want an Apple Watch look alike you won't want this! But if you want a well designed and unobtrusive fitness tracker with many basic features at an affordable price point, this one is for you! I love the sleek minimal design, not big or bulky. Water and swim proof so you can wear in the shower is useful. The HR model tracks heart health, as well as the usual features. Phone alerts are passed on, great when my phone is buried in my handbag :) The display face gives you access to all the info you want at the swipe of a finger, and is customisable. My only gripe is the usual less than optimal battery life, and why does every Fitbit model have a different charging cable??? Otherwise happy with my purchase.
