Fitbit Charge 5 Advanced Fitness & Health Tracker - Graphite

Regular readers know I wear at least one, often two watches daily with one usually some type of smartwatch and the other a model of GPS sports watch . While I wear two watches, millions prefer a more minimalist approach to activity tracking and still prefer the classic band form factor.

Fitbit’s newest fitness tracker, the Charge 5, might be the biggest change to the Charge line yet. It has a color screen, the first for a Charge, and you can opt to keep the screen on all the time. It has a new rounded design that’s thinner than the Charge 4.

The Fitbit Charge 5 is a great fitness tracker, and a great fitness tracker only.

The Charge 5 looks great and brings the best of Fitbit’s ecosystem to the wrist band form factor. We easily recommend for men that don’t want a smartwatch. Everything we love about the Fitbit ecosystem is in fine fettle here. But Fitbit has fumbled here. The GPS tracking is not good.

Fitbit's flagship tracker is now a little cheaper, but is it the best you can get?...

For day to day use, the Fitbit Charge 5 manages to take all the best aspects of the Charge series and apply a super clean and brilliant display, with an easy to user interface – all driven by the usual Fitbit app/cloud platform that people have used for more than a decade.

The Fitbit Charge 5 is an excellent upgrade over its predecessor since it comes with great updates. These include a sleeker design, always-on coloured touch screen, and new health-tracking features.

I debated between the smartwatch or a tracker. This watch has everything I want to track my performance. I'm happy I didn't go for the more expensive option. The battery life is great. Highly recommend.

I Have been wearing Fitbit Charge 5 since Dec.2021. Recently, I noticed small red irritation on my wrist were the watch lays. Although not part of the recent recall my watch has caused a red irritation similar to a burn mark. Stopped wearing it because of that.

Recently purchased my second Fitbit watch. My first is a Charge 3 and after 3 years I bought the Charge 5 that was offered by Macys. It’s the perfect watch for everyday wear. I have the Apple watch but prefer my Fitbit for everyday wear.

I can't believe that I was able to set up this FitBit by myself, but I did. I am still getting used to some of the features but I am very happy with this product. I do appreciate the new strap on it. The old ones bothered my skin and FitBit has redesigned the strap. The Charge 5 looks really nice.

I had problems syncing the FB Charger 5. The first two week it was syncing without a problem. I even turned off most notifications and still had problems. The face was a nice size I was able to read everything without a problem. I had to refer back to the FB Lux. Definitely returning it today.

My wife loves the Charge 5. She uses its all the time to keep track of her fitness!

Many excellent upgrades from previous models yet bargain priced! Even in the brightest sunlight, this screen is easy to see/read. New band style is fabulous! Comfortable, the end neatly tucks inside and the band material is silky-feeling, yet waterproof and strong.

I like fitbits but always was unhappy with how often you had to charge them. Within 3 days, you would need to recharge and it seemed to take a while before the device was fully charged. I recently switched out my Versa for this Charge 5 and I love it. The size is perfect for wearing daily.

I actually like using Fitbit. I was so sad when my Charge 3 stop working then I saw the new Charge 5 & was ecstatic but it was okay. The facing is hard to see and every so often screen would change to something else & I couldn't change it back.

I purchased the Charge 5 to replace my Charge 2, which I loved. Honestly, I wish I tried harder to get my old one repaired. First, on Charge 2, I loved the side button to access my stats. Also, the stair tracker is gone. For the price, I would not expect to lose features. I am not impressed.
