Customers are mixed about the performance of the wearable computer. Some mention that the Calorie count, etc. all these inherent features work well. The mobile app has gotten better, but others say that the advanced feature don't work. The screen just doesn't respond, and it stopped working within the warranty period.

Customers have mixed opinions about the tracking of the wearable computer. Some mention it's great for fitness tracking, automatically detecting and logging exercise activity, and tracking sleep.

Customers are mixed about the accuracy of the wearable computer. Some mention that it seems very accurate when they fall asleep, while others say that it begins to decline after 12 to 18 months.

Customers are mixed about the value of the wearable computer.

Customers are dissatisfied with the battery life of the wearable computer. They mention that the stand-alone GPS drains the battery very fast, and it shuts off after about a mile. They also mention that it often wouldn't charge, and the battery has to be charged every other day.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Keeping my review the same. I am once again so disappointed. As per my review I happened to have purchased an Inspire 3 at same time, so I am currently charging that up. Will see if I keep with it or shop around. Please Fitbit.. do better.
------------------------------------------------
For stuff like this, I sort by "most recent reviews". I did that and saw all the negatives, but I still went with it, and I will tell you why. I simply like the brand overall despite some frustrations and wasting of money, haha.
I think buying a Fitbit product is taking a risk. I am still reticent to move to another brand because I havent found one I really like, and I almost never like the apps. I simply havent been impressed enough to want to make a change. I have been gifted or borrowed other brands, and I still come back to fitbit. So I just view Fitbit as a throw away item that is sure to crapp out within 2 years. Not sure if it is the product or my body chemistry as my husband STILL uses his Fitbit Blaze from late 2015 to this day. ME? I went through 2 Blazes, and several others in the same time period.
I have been using Fitbit nearly exclusively for 9 years straight. I have had the early model "fitbit" (whatever it was before HR came on the scene. circa 2014), then the first Fitbit Charge, Blaze (2 of them!), Versa 2, Sense, and then very recently I went backwards to the Inspire 3 and this Charge 5, simultaneously. I bought them both as the combined price was less than one smartwatch.
I decided that I really didnt take advantage of all the features of the smartwatch, and so when my Sense crappped out exactly 2 years, I decided to go with a more basic model. I hemmed and hawed between the Inspire 3 and Charge 5.
For my detailed review of the Inspire 3, here is a link to my review . They are both very similar (Inspire 3 needs to have phone for GPS tracking, and although it says that the Inspire 3 does NOT have ECG app for AFIB detection, it does. Sorta. "while it can't take an ECG like the more expensive Fitbit Charge 5 or newer smartwatches, it will monitor your heart rate and alert you if it detects an irregular heart rhythm"). Then size difference. But that is about it.
IF you are looking to "compare and contrast" then scroll halfway down the product description page and you will see that they list a slew of other Fitbit models to compare it to. On this product page they dont show the Inspire 3. If you want to compare this Charge 5 to the Inspire 3, then go to the Inspire 3 produc page and scroll down half way to see the models they compare it to. The Charge 5 is one of them.
The battery life on this is good. Seems to hold true to the weeklong battery life. I have my watch face set to needing to be tapped/pressed rather than wrist flick, which I imagine can impact battery life, as well as other nuances. But as is it lasts all week.
Image is very clear. Looks great. Nice bright clear colors and lettering/numbers. Can change watch face in app.
Larger face than the Inspire 3, but smaller than the smartwatches. I think the size of face is perfect for me. Loaded with info to easily see.
Scroll up, down, left, right for all the information you could possibly want.
Steps seem accurate enough. I find that if anything it undercounts, which is fine. I just adjust my goal. But it is close (thats the other thing with Fitbit, i find the step counts to be pretty accurate compared to other brand names I have used).
Has the button to pop the wristband on and off. The Inspire 3 has the pin style which I dont care for. Wish they would list this type of details.
Overall I really like it, and am pleased with the Charge 5. It has all that I need, and at a price point that is much more reasonable over the smartwatches-- I really dont use the features on those, so why buy them?
I WILL update if I experience anything worth sharing. I had gone back to my Sense review to update when it officially "died". I didnt change rating, but I figured it was good info to know.
THE ONLY THING I DONT LIKE, which isnt Charge 5 specific, bit just toward Fitbit as a whole:
There was a time when you could have more than one Fitbit linked to your app. NOW, in order to have one, you have to take off the other. I bought the Inspire 3 and Charge 5 at the same time with expectation that I could have both in use depending on which I felt like wearing and to compare them. So I initially used the Inspire 3 for a couple of weeks then deleted it off the app in order to try out this Charge 5. In order to switch back I have to delete the Charge 5. Its annoying. Since I prefer the Charge 5, I will either tuck the Inspire 3 away for use when this inevitably crapps out, or just give it away.
2/14/2022
Amazon replaced the Charge 5. 10/26/2021.
I am hoping all is well now. I still love the features and product. However, Fitbit Customer support is atrocious unlike the amazing customer service from Amazon. .
11/01/2021 Update.
The new tracker still can't track distance accurately. I am not sure if it is due to the forested mountain trail or my jacket & gloves covering the tracker or a combination. The distance is off by 2 miles reporting 6+ to 7+ miles on a four mile trail. Otherwise it seems to be fine. I might as well just accept things as they are. But if you are a hiker and want to get accurate information about your hike, better hike in open dessert in the summer. Disappointed!
*********
I am very; active hiking and resistance training. (Weights). The old trackers did fairly well counting my steps during my hikes. But were close to worthless when it came to my weight training or even doing abdominal's. The charge 5 tracks everything.
The screen is so easy to read. Very simple to navigate through all the modes.
I am very pleased with it.
But only had it a few days, so time will tell.
2 weeks later....
I still love the features but the device is full of glitches. I assume software glitches.
I hike the exact same trail up the mountain and back three times a week. Each hike the Charge 5 is reporting different mileage. The difference is significant over 0ne mile and sometimes two miles off.
It has gone dead apparently or else I died for one hour twice at the time I went to sleep, one hour later it starts to register a heartbeat and record my sleep.
I have called Fitbit twice, got the old we will get back with you via email with instructions. No email.
I would recommend waiting till they get the bugs out of the software before buying a Charge 5.
No I am not going to send mine back, my old Charge 3 died a few days before I bought the Charge 5. So I will bite the bullet and hope they remedy the issues soon.
October 24th .....
It died or I did again for 35 minutes last night when I went to sleep. Called Fitbit was given the run around. Finally I was told again that they would contact me via email with instructions.
I am sure that they know they have a problem but don't want to admit it. Probably working on a fix. So stalling for time. It is also tracking my hikes inconsistently reporting varying distances even though I am always hiking the exact same mountain trail and have been doing it now for 14 years consistently.
Top reviews from other countries
Nun sind wir seit einer Woche ein Team und ich muss sagen, bin sehr zufrieden, trage die Uhr dauerhaft und immer und die Werte werden gut erkannt, die technischen Möglichkeiten haben sich enorm weiterentwickelt und ich kann die Charge5 nur empfehlen, sie ist klein und unauffällig. Natürlich gibt es Tracker mit viel mehr Möglichkeiten, aber für den normalen Menschen ist dieses Gerät völlig ausreichend.
Klare Kaufempfehlung.
Funzione ottimamente è leggero e la batteria dura almeno una settimana, ricaricandosi al 100% in meno di due ore.
Non ho fatto paragoni con le misurazioni dell'Apple watch ma non mi sembra ci sia molta differenza.
Anche gli alert sono discreti. Sono molto soddisfatto.
Anche la applicazione iOS funziona bene ed è semplice da usare.
Per la connessione all'App Salute sono però necessarie applicazioni "ponte" non proprio economiche, ma si vive anche senza.
is scratch resistant. It is light, smooth and unobtrusive, and therefore there is no issue wearing 24x7; and it does capture all nocturnal activity!!!!!!! If you are going to invest in your health this is a great tracker. I am sure there are other equally as excellent trackers out there but you won't have wasted your money, especially if you pick it up at one the Amazon sale days or buy a second hand one from the buy options.
