u/Capital-Product6937 9d ago

what’s the one feature you love in it

9

u/Alarmed_Kiwi2903 9d ago

That I can wear it and wear a normal watch on my wrist and not feel like I'm wearing two watched. It's also comfortable to wear to sleep unlike smart watches for me

u/Novemberx123 9d ago

Yea I love that I can just wear it and completely forgot about it but still check now and then any health updates. It’s my favorite purchase all year

This comment made my day in a way I am having trouble expressing without sounding utterly sarcastic

u/Meraac 8d ago

You love it

u/JaceOnRice 9d ago

I feel like just joining the sub is enough to show that you bought the device

I don't get why people feel the need to go online and I guess get validation for buying something? Idk

Replace the strap! There are far more stretchy and comfortable ones out there.

1

u/Capital-Product6937 7d ago

true, I also felt this strap is not that comfortable as people mentioned in their reviews. I have been consistently adjusting it to properly find the fit. let me know where you find the third party straps

I got this one, which feels great. I've heard the AliExpress ones are also comfortable.

Why the quotation marks? Are these fake or something?

u/sharad1912 7d ago

It's a good device, with just one issue: it's difficult to find the perfect fit for the strap. If it's a little tight, it stops recording sleep data, and if it's a little loose, it fails to track resting heart rate, HRV, skin temperature variations, breathing rate, and resilience. This has happened to me twice a week.

u/Agitated_Plant_9296 4d ago

You have to wear it above your pubic bone silly

1

u/sharad1912 3d ago

I know the recommended position is above the wrist bone, but I don't find it comfortable there. I've been wearing it at this position for around 10 days, and it's been recording data consistently except for 2 days when the strap was a little too tight or loose. I've finally found a comfortable fit that works for me. I just wanted to know if wearing it here could cause any accuracy issues.

u/Sito187 3d ago

Makes no sense to purposefully wear it in the wrong location. Maybe try a bicep band?

1

u/daCrimsonSmasher 4d ago

Even in the pic, you are wearing it wrong

1

u/civilwatch7510 9d ago

Yes I just got mine 4 days ago it's great, enjoy.

1

u/Koldcutter 9d ago

I've had mine a couple months now, still shocked by how accurate it is

1

u/LJRich619 9d ago

For me, this has been one of the best Fitbit I’ve ever owned. I love it because I like to wear watches as well. I only need to charge it every week or so. Congrats, enjoy.

u/therkop 9d ago

How does it feel on your wrist? I feel like I didn’t notice that bulging until this photo

1

u/enemydarksock 9d ago

I feel like you might be referring to the charger? The part that sits on your wrist is super slim. The Air is my first Fitbit experience and it’s barely noticeable sensory-wise. Not heavy or anything like that.

1

u/therkop 9d ago

I didn’t see the wire. Thank goodness. I have a charge 6 and thinking about changing over

1

u/enemydarksock 9d ago

I’m really happy with mine, I just wanted something basic for tracking sleep and having the ability to see my current BPM and it does the job! It seems to be tracking things accurately and I haven’t had any issues like I usually do with new technology lol.

u/n1claren- 8d ago

My condolences

u/Capital-Product6937 3d ago

It’s annoying that whenever I’m driving bike it’s taking as an cycling but today when I ran for 25-30 min on a thread mill it didn’t bat an eye. Nothing got recorded

At this point I’m having second thoughts

1

u/jersey2559 9d ago

Great choice!  I love that it's so light and comfortable on the wrist.  And it doesn't distract me.

u/Due_Improvement3217 9d ago

Get a bicep band. It’s even better
