Awesome Tips Fitbit Charge 5 review
Fitbit Charge 5 (Amazon):
Fitbit Charge 5 (Amazon):
The Charge 5 is the best fitness tracker for most people. It has almost the same health sensors as the company’s more expensive smartwatches, robust fitness and workout features, plus built-in GPS. Bonus: It costs significantly less than Fitbit’s other watches such as the Sense and Versa 3. Update: the Daily Readiness Score and ECG are now active.

Thanks for watching! Just to clarify you can still totally use the Charge 5 without Fitbit Premium, it will just give you broader views of your sleep/stress data ⌚️
The only weird thing I’ve noticed is the last percentage from 99 to 100 takes a long time. Charge time from about 10% to 99% was about an hour and a half. Then that last percent took a good 40 minutes. Other than that everything else is great!
PSA SAMSUNG USERS !!
This device does NOT work with Samsung foldable phones!!!! Don't waste your time or money if you have a foldable.
One word for you, alcohol.
To James Park, my ex, remember all the hair I left on the carpet, you didn't buy a vacuum.
Hi , thank you for your tutorial video of the Fitbit 5. I have just one question , I have the Fitbit 4, if I switch to the Fitbit charger 5, will I lose all my data history from my phone if I switch ?
is the 5 bigger than the 4
Paid promotion
Fitbit products would fail, like others because of the charging of Fitbit apps stupidity to use the product properly that people had paid for.
What is the best watch to track fitness?
So the fit costs $150 + ($120 a year) to use? Hard Pass
Basically, if you buy a Fitbit they'll suck you into a $120 pa. subscription service 😤
Garmin Venu tracks sleep better and without subscription.
why does it have such a large bezzel
I have used the HR inspire and the versa 3, both lasted a little over a year and literally DIED right after. I have gotten accustomed to wearing trackers, I want a replacement but I am really scared to purchase yet another fitbit device
Thanks for.your review
How can you casually mention that Google bought the company and nothing about the privacy of your data. They are the go to slime balls
They had me sold until the stupid subscription
Great review but can anyone tell me how many minutes power you'd get on a GPS enabled run say an ultra marathon pleasem
I hate this devise.
I want to sell my fitbit charge 5 to my friend but I accidentally activated the the free 6 month premium trial. He won’t buy it without it. is there any way around this?
Using this for my pixel 4XL. For the free sleep track, free blood oxygen level. Time. And notifications. Win win
This unit is the first to feature a colour AMOLED display
Dont buy it if you are in Malaysia, cannot use ECG function ETC
Thanks for uploading this. By the way, what is it's screen size when measured diagonally?
Fitbit Charge 5 stopped working after two hours out of the box. Software failed and bricked the device. I wouldn't recommend purchasing a Fitbit device without some form of insurance on it.
I was all in and ready to purchase, then I saw they locked more features behind a Subscription service.
I agree with those who say that a subscription to get some information is ridiculous.
Got one for Christmas. Very disappointed. Only worked for 2 months before it wouldn’t connect to the app without going thru ALL the troubleshooting- which gets tiresome a few times each day.
The company support sucks! Nearly impossible to return it.
Have now given up, after 4 months.
Only bonus is that I was in time to cancel the subscription of $145NZ .
ماهي فائدة الجي بي اس في الساعه او السوار؟؟
Really well done review.
The only drawback with the charge 5 is the lack of an altimeter, meaning it will no longer track how many flights of stairs you've gone up.
Fitbit sucks! You can’t replace the battery? Are you kidding me?
I have a Apple Watch 6th generation but my mom got the fit bit charge 5 today and I wanted to do my research and see if it has any cool things that I don’t know about
Informative video; with the annoying bursts of loud music between segments, and the beat heavy music while the presenter is trying to talk about the device, weren't included.
Way overpriced for features.
A lot of glare too.
Who on earth gets 7 1/2 hours of sleep a night?!?!
Samsung watch 4 and soon 5 model are 5 years ahead in my opinion…
Thanks for a good review, very comprehensive.
I HAVE RETURNED (March 2022) FOR A FULL REFUND MY NEW CHARGE 5 after Fitbit support acknowledged FITBIT has been working on a software fix to issues affecting battery life. NO ETA is know for the fix to the software. DO NOT BUY THIS watch until FITBIT comes clear about the fix to the batteries issues which can reduce the expected life from 5 days to 1 1/2 day.
Sadly the watch band keeps popping off. almost lost the lost it
The FitBit Charge5 Will Not Work if you're on Night Shift. I bought one around launch, HRV, Daily Readiness, and stress management ONLY show when I am on day shift. I have been asking fitbit for months now to add it, but their customer service bites.
The price is killing it ;(.
I'm kinda shocked it doesn't have a find my phone feature.
Thank you for this review video. I am looking to replace my Versa 2 with a tracker that has built-in GPS and that feature along with other features you reviewed have really helped me with my decision. Very well done review!
Completely ridiculous that they charge a premium membership for your own data. The Charge 5 should be free if they are going to charge you forever to use the device. Disgusting.
Don't buy this watch, it's crap. I have one and the heart rate sensor is not working properly. The suggestions they offer don't work. Don't waste your money.
No weather app 😭😭😭
Google Fitbit data data data money money money Google Google
Another creepy Google tracking device
