Charge 6, Obsidian/Black Aluminum

For 18 months it was perfect. Stopped working after18 months. Blank screen. Won't recharge.

I'm a long time Fitbit user, for over 12 years, starting with the very first device they ever made, and a dozen Fitbit devices since. Been a huge fan. However, in the last 2 years, product quality has been deteriorating rapidly (perhaps since they were bought out). I've bought 3 Charge 5's (all lasted less than a year), and this newest Charge 6 died within 4 months! This one suddenly died, wouldn't charge, wouldn't come on. And being an experienced user, I have tried everything I know to get it working again. No joy. Fitbit support (atleast in India) is non-existent; locating a support number is a herculean task, and speaking to them is a many-hour process. I am currently trying to have them honour the 1-year warranty, and I'm told I have to physically take the dead device to a centre 30km away, and they will then (subject to their approval), send it to the Google office in another city, and THEN determine whether I get a replacement or a refund... sigh. I have now purchased a device that is three times cheaper. RIP Fitbit. Never again...

The battery life is about a week or so. Consider 10% battery being used in a day. The sleep analysis is really detailed and gave good insights. (This is premium only feature so once the 6months premium membership ends then we do not get much in detail) The new cardio feature is something that I'm yet to understand properly but as of now it seems kind of off. Spo2 is calculated only during sleep at night. You cannot check it throughout your day. Same for skin temperature. We cannot manually trigger a check for these two. The ECG feature works fine when the heart beats are in normal range which is below 120bpm. If above that then it gives an message stating that it cannot recognise correctly. I bought this watch mainly for sleep analysis and it does that at very detailed level. Accuracy is something I cannot verify but I can say that it picks up the exact sleep and wake up time and logs naps as well. Overall a really good fitness tracker.

I’ve bought 2 of these Fitbits 1.5 years ago and this is my review. Pros: 1. No nonsense fitness tracker which does offer some of the “smartwatch” benefits but still doesn’t lose its unique charm. 2. The watch integrates seamlessly with Android and iOS both. I didn’t face any issues with connectivity and all the features were available in both the phone types. 3. You can watch YouTube reviews which go in depth regarding the accuracy, overall it’s quite good for the watch’s price tag. And the Fitbit app provides quite a decent chunk of statistics as well. There is a paywall, but most features are still accessible for free. Cons: 1. Since Google bought Fitbit they’ve had a bit of an identity crisis. Google isn’t prioritising Fitbit products and we don’t even know if Charge 7 will come to the market or not. 2. Not “smart enough”. This watch is strictly a fitness tracker with some smart elements. If you want a smart watch then go for Apple/ Samsung watches. Overall Verdict: I used the watch for 1.5 years and it worked wonderfully, would’ve still used it but I received an Apple Watch so this one is going to my mother. You can buy it you won’t regret it. (All of these are my personal experiences, I’ve read instances online where the watch stopped working after 1 year or so but my experience has been entirely positive)

Hi, so i bought this product around 18 months ago. While the features mentioned are correct and I have no issues with that my biggest issues are as follows 1) Till about 10 months the Fitbit was working fine, i charged it every Sunday for few hours and the battery lasted for 4 -5 days and inbetween a 1 hour top-up took me through for next 1-2 days. But after that 10 months suddenly everything changed the charge at 100% also was unpredictable it might last few hours or at worse once worn refuse to show anything act dead. Seemed as if fitbit software had a hidden button to stop battery functioning after 10 months was over 2) The worst part is that Fitbit has no service center here in India. The advice I got on searching various forums is that dont waste your time contacting them as the answer is replace it with a new product I didn't spend my 15k and top it with annual premium subscription to get just 10 months of service. I don't consider it value for money purchase. Tey seriously need to do something about the battery quality

I don't understand why people have problem in connecting and using this device. It is very accurate and does its job for what it is made for. You need to charge this device fully and connect and update firmware to use. In case of black screen after some days, that is an update which is required for a fitness tracker. Just see the app and put it on charge and update. People are not using the product without reading all the instructions and rating negatives in a rush. This is a very very good fitness tracker. I was skeptical reading reviews here on amazon but I took my leap of faith and got rewarded. Every function works smoothly if you are using the product after reading the manual. This new age of short content which leads to lesser attention span is not letting people to read product manual properly to use the product.

This is a revised review, rating down from 5* that I had given earlier. The device seems to have a severe battery degradation problem. After a year of use, it gets to charging the device once in two days. Then once a day. Then (about 19 months later) it has reached a stage where the battery is almost dead. The device just goes off even when the battery shows 60%, even in the middle of a walk. When I try to charge, it restarts at 60% - so what just happened? I have trashed the device and decided to try a Huawei Band 10, now.

Accuracy is perfect for heart rate and sleep tracking. If you want no bs health tracking this is the most accurate and value for money device you will find. I ordered the porcelain one, it looks little weird and eye catching should have ordered the black one, it looks much more premium. Any ways bought the black strap.
