It's not out yet, but I believe that it is not monitoring your heart rate continuously, because it would require the IR leds on the back to be on at all times, which would drain the battery.
- UK-AL 12y agoProbably need some kind of sampling method, rather than continious.
- gambiting 12y agoFitbit Charge HR works exactly that way - the IR leds on the back are constantly on....even when I take it off they keep on blinking. And it works for 4-5 days. Obviously it doesn't have a huge screen like the Apple Watch does, but it's certainly possible to be monitoring the heartrate constantly.
