Always loved a 'Fitbit'....
Buy one of the Chinese copies they're just as good at a fraction of the price if that's all you need it for.

Charge 2 here too. I use the steps and try and beat my target each day (apart from this week when I'm being lazy )
The sleep monitor has been really useful in helping to fix my insomnia.

I got the Alta HR for Christmas (or a bit earlier!), and it’s a good piece of kit. I have very slim wrists so I was going for the Charge 2 originally, but it was too big and looked ridiculous on me. If you just want a basic model then I would recommend the Alta HR, it’s not intrusive or heavy and comes in various colours. The biggest differenc between the two models that I could see was the Charge 2 shows where you’ve been, not just how many steps.
For me the app is what makes it, which you won’t get with a rip-off. You can even track your calories and water intake, and it gives you notifications on the Fitbit if you get any calls or texts.

I’ve got a Blaze. Use it mainly for steps and normally go out of my way to hit at least 10,000. I average 12,000 a day so can’t stand not being at 10k or over.

Or you’re not fat but just want to get fitter and healthier.

Had ones of these for 6 months and it still lasts over a month on a single charge.

To be fair that has decent reviews and it's cheap. Was looking at the Fitbit Alto HR for £100, but not sure now. If the Fit Bit app is as good as people have said it might be worth the extra £70...

Had a charge HR and got a blaze now. My wife has an alta I think with the silver bangle.
I found them great motivation to make you go the extra to reach your targets which you probably wouldn't do otherwise.
Even got my 5 going on 6 year old a garmin vivofit jr2 for xmas and she's telling me her step count and checking she's ahead of me every 10 minutes

i lost weight more through the app i though, by recording my calorie intake (similar to myfitnesspal i'm told off here). i don't think the fitbit i've got has increased my step count, its more that it puts your fitness at the front of your mind as you've got this thing on your wrist.
it must do something though, i lost a stone over the summer with it.
Fitbit One.
Made me realize daily routine nets only 5,000 steps.
10,000 steps = daily target and achieve it 80% of the the week.

Is the Alta good enough for what it does? Like, should I spend the extra on the better ones if I just need to watch my heart rate and steps?
