Pretty solid price given it includes heart rate monitoring. To be used in conjunction with a relatively healthy diet and common sense.

If you're a new eBay user or an existing user with no purchases in the last twelve months, get yourself a $10 voucher to bring the cost down to $79: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/283074

Don't forget CashRewards etc.

    These are great for your health. hahaha

    Then again perhaps a bit of self control will help.

      What - the FitBit didn't make him fat, he clearly didn't know (or just ignored) how the human body actually works.

      If you "gorge" on pizza or ice cream every time you walk 10,000 steps, I doubt anyone's energy output would exceed their intake.

      But I agree that FitBits are pretty irrelevant to being healthy. Just eat well and exercise a reasonable amount.

        Yes that's why i said a bit of self control will help.

  • hippyhippy on 21/12/2016 - 13:51

    The heart rate monitoring is useless. Doesnt work at all. If you wear these things thinking you will automatically lose weight you're pretty retarded

      Say what you will, and yes self control is crucial (that article is moronic). However, I love the way they connect with the Fitbit Aria scale. I know the body fat isn't "accurate", but when I was dedicated (late 2015), I would jump on the scale every couple days, see my weight drop and as I gained muscle my body fat dropped as well. I'm not a bit fitness junky, I love sport and food. But it worked for me and still does.

      also… the heart rate monitoring is pretty average. But again it's not supposed to be a hospital grade cardiac monitor.

    We also have the aria and also a myriad of fitbits, no they are not medical grade equipment and not the best for HIIT, but for what they are they are great. RHR and sleep tracking are very useful tools. When you are crook you will see your RHR go up over the few days. Very interesting for people who love analyzing data. The build quality on the charge HR is pretty crap, but for what they are, especially at $89, you can't go wrong.

    Prefer my Garmin, but this is a pretty decent price for something with a heart rate monitor. As others have said, these are not medical grade (and expect the occasional weird reading), but It's good to use to track activity and other aspects over an extended period. I don't get worried if my resting heart rate fluctuates a lot over a few days, but it's interesting to see how it on average drops as my activity levels increase and my weight decreases over a period of months.

    I'm after Fitbit Charge 2 for mrs.

    • hongd on 21/12/2016 - 16:02

      me 2.

      What does the Charge 2 bring over its predecessors? Well, it adds smartphone notifications, Multi-Sport tracking, Connected GPS, Cardio Fitness Level and Guided Breathing over the Charge HR and Charge HR, as well as a bigger display, interchangeable straps and a more premium, streamlined design.

    • senz on 21/12/2016 - 16:18

      Amazon sells the Fitbit 2 for $138.08USD including delivery which is around $198AUD with the low exchange rate at the moment.

    This model will either fall apart or the band will peel or bubble.
    My GF took hers back after it fell apart and the band bubbled. I had a Charge and it was replaced after the band peeled after 6 months and the replacement did the same after 8 months. Cant replace the band on these unlike the newer ones.
    Just google fitbit Charge band peeling and lots of people have had this issue, probably why they made the new ones with replaceable bands.

    • Quppa on 22/12/2016 - 09:30

      I'm on my third replacement band after just under a year of ownership. It's a great device except for the shoddy build quality - I hope the Charge 2 and future models will be a bit more robust.

    Not recommended. I'm waiting for my 2nd replacement to arrive and then taking all 3 back to smart to try and get my money back. I only bought mine in April. The quality is crap, they're happy to keep resenting but won't warrant over a year from purchase date.

    4 months is all you'll get out of one of them.

    There is no danger according to scientists. Even higher powered Bluetooth devices are fine.
