ADDITIONAL VIDEO NOTES:
This is the Fitbit Charge 6, and it is likely to be my most recommended wearable of the year. Let me explain.
A lot of people don’t want a $300 smartwatch that needs to be charged every night. They want a subtle device with a long battery life that tracks health and fitness, has google pay, notifications, and maybe a few other smart watch features. So what are your options here? You can’t get a WearOS watch or even a Galaxy watch thanks to the battery. A Garmin device would work but they are very expensive. So that brings us to Fitness Bands. Of all the smart bands out there, the new Fitbit Charge 6 is going to be the most appealing here in America.
3 colors - black, silver, champagne
DESIGN
Claimed 7 day battery life
Touchscreen and one button on the left
Links to compatible exercise machines
Claimed 60% more accurate for HIIT
Sleep score
Daily Readiness score
Cardio Fitness score (basically VO2 Max)
40+ exercise modes
ACCURACY TESTING
Built In GPS
Sleep score
ECG
High/low HR detection
SpO2
Skin temperature
RHR
Respiration rate
EDA scan for stress
Auto workout detection
Google Pay/Wallet (YES!)
Google Maps (YES!)
KZfaq Music controls - other music too?
timer/stopwatch/smart wake alarm/find my phone/notifications
Tap 3x to zoom in
50m water resistance
$160
CONS
Haptics are kind of weak
No mics or sound
Can only control YT music
Kind of expensive
Fitbit Premium paywall
Bezel is still pretty chunky
No onboard music
Actually though, this is the best wearable for a lot of people! Tons of people just want a small device with a long battery life, google pay/maps/

I just upgraded to the Charge 6, i've been using the Charge 3 since it came out and the only issue I faced was the wear and tear of the band. I also don't understand the premium charge as others have mentioned. I could see paying a small cost if fitbit let me sync with my peloton app so I could track all those classes. I didnt have to pay for sleep and mindful classes with my charge 3🤷🏾‍♀️

I got the Charge 5 when it came out and have loved it. I don’t track workouts; mainly use it to track steps, sleep, notifications and as a watch during my consults at work.

The Charge 6 is miles better than the Charge 4. My band attacher on the fitbit itself broke off and I'm on the fence between the Mi Band 8, Huawei Band 8, Fitbit Inspire 3 and Fitbit Charge 6. I'm not looking for a perfect tracker but I want my data to be as accurate as possible. The Quantified Scientist noticed quite a few artefacts during running. Also locking FitBit features behind a paywall is putting me off.

@aharmlesshorse 6 ай бұрын

I got the band 8 instead of the Fitbit and I'm really happy with it. It was 36 bucks and does everything I need it to do. Mind you it does not have a GPS, Google wallet or ECG, however there is no subscription and you can skip or adjust music even if it's not KZfaq music. The biggest turn off for many though is, you don't get to sync with Google Fit, if you're okay with that it's a really neat device for the price.

Did Fitbit fix the GPS issue with the wrist strap being too tight? If I recall this was a issue. But the Fitbit paywall is ridiculous, so $160 and then $9.99 or $120 a year, so let's say $280, a lot of better health trackers for that not named Fitbit. Plus like you said that's $9.99 for as long as you own it (month to month or year to year).

Not sure why everyone is saying charging for Fitbit premium is a deal breaker. It honestly doesn’t provide you with that much insight. I’ve never used their workout suggestions. Their wellness videos aren’t really all that compelling to use. The core functionality you get with any basic Fitbit is all you need to lose weight and that is why you buy these fitness trackers- to track how your fitness improves. If you really need someone to interpret the data for you (rather than looking through the graphs yourself) the. They usually give you a free subscription for a few months upon purchase of the device. I wouldn’t overlook the tracker because you don’t get fit it premium included. You don’t need it at all and it doesn’t provide much more insight than the basic data provides.

I have had one for 4 days now and the step counter is insanely inaccurate. If I walk 100 steps it usually counts 100 steps. However, it counts steps when im not walking. It counts about 150 when I'm asleep. I work at home sat at a desk. After 5 hours it counts over 3000 steps when all I have done is go the kitchen a couple of times to make coffee! I gestimate it is incorrect by a factor of 10. So, even if the step counter is accurate when I'm walking, at the end of the day the final count will be worthless. Unless there is a solution I will have to return it. I contacted Fitbit support but they could not explain why is is so inaccurate.

I actually prefer the whoop with it's lack of screen. I wear real watches, so the extra display is kinda pointless for me. I don't like whoops business model of giving you the tracker for "free" but requiring a subscription to make any use of it at all. I don't think Fitbit premium is necessary for the average person. HR, workout and food tracking are the big things people really need to get a baseline idea of fitness and measure progress. I used to wear my Versa 2 all the time until I realized I didn't really need it to know I was in good shape. You eventually get to the point where you don't need the numbers to see and feel progress.

Note kind of misleading: the "GPS" in this video was not using the on device chipset but leveraged the connected smartphone's GNSS ("GPS") chipset. The charge 6 (like the charge 5) does have a built-in GNSS chipset but does not work as well. By default Fitbit/Google sets the charge 6 GPS setting to dynamic mode which is uses a combination of the smartphone and built-in device (charge 6) chipsets. However, in dynamic mode it mostly uses the smartphone's "GPS" chipset.

re SpO2 - is it on demand or only while you are sleeping as per the Sense (and maybe Sense2, I only have the original Sense). I see this feature as half useful. It's good to look at it in the morning and be aware that something during your sleep (sleep apnea perhaps?) is lowering O2 or perhaps you have something similar to a pneumonia lowering your O2. I wish it was on demand to check while working out so again if you're feeling a bit "off" during a workout you could check it.

I just wish it had an "Auto DND" (Do Not Disturb - senses when you're sleeping) for notifications like the Mi Bands do... They used to have it, but it was removed in a firmware update and many are pissed. Here's a sample from the Fitbit forum..."The option was removed with the mid-2020 Firmware update. You now have only Do Not Disturb and Sleep Mode which have to be turned on manually. You can set a schedule for Sleep Mode but that only works if you have a regular sleep schedule which not everyone does (any parents out there?) and doesn't help if you're trying to squeeze a nap in. No one, especially exhausted parents, is going not remember to hit DND before they crash. The Auto-Detect for sleep simply worked. Now we have to choose between removing the tracker before sleeping, remembering to hit DND, or putting up with getting notifications and being woken up the one morning you managed to be able to get a little extra time to sleep in. Come on FitBit...how much user testing did you do before removing the sleep auto-detect feature, and how many parents did you talk to?"

Do the notifications make a noise to notify you?

The paywall sucks I was about to buy It, but changed my mind.

Boo to subscriptions. The Fitbit paywall, on top of the KZfaq Music one since you can only control that music, is so aggressive.

Should iPhone users get this too?

well folks, my fitbit charge 5 just stopped working, it's on a reboot loop... after talking to google support, they told me the obvious, my device warranty expired so they won't replace it, i did get a 50% discount promo, but the last Fitbit devices, charge 4 and 5 have been like disposable plates... my charge 3 lasted forever, only replaced it because I received a newer one as a gift... anyways, now i dont know if i should but another fitbit device or go with something else, I'm tired of stuff only lasting a year or 2 at the most...

The pay wall for any device writes it off for me. 😬

I have had the Fitbit Charge 3, 4 and 5. Great experience, until you pass the year of usage. Then they all stop working.

This cheap thing gets smart wake up but not the expensive pixel watch. Makes sense

Will this alert you of potential heart failure like the apple watch?

The fact that Google took away features from my Fitbit that I paid for when they bought the company makes it almost impossible for me to buy another Fitbit. They put a really bad taste in my mouth doing stuff like that

The fitbit premium paywall sort of makes it not worth it imo. Could just go with a bit more expensive tracker by someone else without subscriptions.

What do you think about that Fitbit Paywall? I was ready to buy until he disclosed the Paywall. Deal breaker.

@vripiatbuzoi9188 6 ай бұрын

Why deal breaker when it's optional.

I was ready to buy until you mentioned the price and paywall... My Garmin broke after a cycling accident, I wanted something cheaper/simpler I don't need all the extras but actually it's cheaper buying a Garmin because there's no paywall 🤦

I owned the Fitbit 5. The battery lasted only. A year.

I just got a charge 6. I am allready disliking the app. I just do not know how to use it. Its a confused but elegantly presented dumpster fire of an app.

Yes definitely aimed at the U.S market as I could only find approx 10 banks re my UK wallet 9 of which I'd never heard of, was unable to use this feature sadly on my recent Xmas present a Fitbit Charge 4 - would have thought a better system would be to go for Visa / Mastercard accessability not bank names? The the mobile app was chaotic and difficult to find what you were looking for I hope it gets dumped / rehashed!

So if you don't pay for the premium service. It's just an expensive wrist band. It can't do anything, my smartphone can't do. I don't need music and maps. Or pay services. I just want to track my calories heart rate and steps.
