Not surprising with all its features, but for wearables, that's a killer. My Fitbit can do 5-6 days, and I would consider that on the shorter end of decent battery life.
- TheAnimus 12y agoMy fitbit has just emailed me to let me know it's charge time. 5-6 days isn't really enough for my useage. However, this is better than many of the smart watches to me, why have a large circular face? Plus the price point of $199 isn't bad at all.
- jmelloy 12y agoThe main reason I bought a garmin vivofit is that the battery lasts a year.
- twodayslate 12y agoI love my Garmin vivosmart. 7 days of battery life but you get the smart notifications. It's pretty convenient.
- jmspring 12y agoThe overall quality of the fitbit (both as a band and a clip) is complete crap. My wife, hardly a heavy user of such, has had the clip die within two months, the band (a replacement) started acting up within about 3 months. Bought at two separate times from two different places. Friends have similar stories. I haven't delved into wearables yet. I mostly have used my iPhone 5s (now 6) for the motion tracking, but it certainly doesn't catch everything (let alone doesn't catch vitals) since I don't carry it everywhere.
- stephengoodwin 12y agoI haven't had any issues, but my wife's Fitbit battery wouldn't stay charged for more than 2 days, within a month of getting it. Since her replacement came in, we've had no issues. My biggest complaint with the Fitbit is the lack of any battery meter on the device itself. Unless you sync frequently, you wouldn't know when your battery is running low.
