Description
Fitness means being active, sleeping well, and eating smarter and the Fitbit one helps you do all three. During the day, it tracks your steps, distance, calories burned and stairs climbed. Come nightfall, it measures your sleep cycle to help you see how to sleep better and it can even wake you in the morning without waking your partner. Your stats upload wirelessly via computer, or select Bluetooth 4.0 devices (like the iPhone 4S). Powered by your stats, you can set goals, and track progress. Stay motivated by earning badges or connecting with friends for support or friendly competitions. Log food, workouts and more. Bring greater fitness into your life seamlessly, socially, 24 hours a day.
UPDATE: Several people asked me about the Fitbit Flex. I just got one today. I compared it to Jawbone UP here http://www.amazon.com/review/R1CVXEEYIAIR0W/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm (copy & paste link if not clickable)---A couple weeks ago I received my Fitbit One Wireless Activity Plus Sleep Tracker, Black after a few months pre-order wait. I had it two full weeks, got to know and learn it, and lost it swiftly. The fact that I lost it so easily made me decide to try Jawbone Up-- thinking that if I lose my arm, I've got larger issues... My review will be a comparison of these two devices for those trying to decide between the two. Early spoiler: I recommend Jawbone Up over the Fitbit One for most people. UPDATE 3/20: Android app is now available as well as the iOS app. My review is based on the iOS app but I do have an android and will try it soon.Hardware itselfThe biggest frustration I had with the Fitbit One was that I wanted to use it for...
I just picked up a fitbit one yesterday and I must say this little thing really impressed me.It has motivated me to walk more, to climb stairs instead of taking the elevator, and it has also motivated me to watch my calorie intake.The device is pretty accurate. I counted my steps, then i looked at my fitbit one and it was spot on.... unless you drive a lot...So why the three stars?Because if you wear the fitbit while you are driving then your "steps" count will be way off. If the road is uneven or as they had it in their website, car has "stiff suspension" (they had transmission on their website but i think they meant suspension) it'll start adding steps taken while you are driving. This is a huge flaw of the fitbit device. So my first day with the fitbit I noticed that my steps are over 2000. And when I left my house it was barely at 1000. So they gotta update this or put a feature that has "driving mode" so that it stops...
