Decided to grab a fitbit today and had planned to get the inspire hr, goodguys catalog has it on offer from $158 down to $99. It was on there site last night but could not be ordered online and just instore only, ebay had three on there page there. The link no longer works since this morning cant be found and the ones available on ebay of which was 3 was not longer there.
So was set out to match with another store and manager was happy to match but asked why i wanted it as the charge 3 was currently same price.
Not knowing much about them i asked are they all same age is the inspire a newer model he said they are all current range.
And looking at the features he did say charge had couple more blah blah.
Looking at them on display i found that the charge 3 did look better and more so for a guy where inspire maybe better suited to lady.
But obviously that's down to preference im just curious when actually the inspire hr was available in australia compared to charge 3?
Obviously when these came out they both was probably more in price but i just felt at time guy was maybe panning me off with older model ie charge 3?
Obviously comparing what charge 3 used to cost with retailers very old price still avertised and current offer it was great deal, but then other reailers are all same price.
Where as the inspire hr i dont see anyone as low as $99 for that model.
I was still on the fence as to what to get having never had one before or used one i j just went for the charge 3.
Looking up reviews about it on youtube not sure how old review vids are but charge 3 had edge but also if price was a factor then inspire hr.
But as the charge 3 is $99 and inspire hr was same if price matched i was at time not sure.
What's your thoughts on the two devices,i do think or feel i was maybe pulled away from the inspire hr to buy i think an older model charge 3. But i beleive even though it maybe older it might still be a better buy.
Im thinking inspire came out 2019 and charge 3 2018?
I love my Charge 3 & I think it is a better buy as it has more features, some of which aren't activated yet anyhow, the one and only disadvantage is that for people with small arms/hands it may look chunky. I think the Charge 3 was very late 2018 release.
It's overall a very accurate device & works flawlessly.
