Fitbit is not doing well only in the field of quantification in the company. With over 60% market share in the US, its 2015 models were basic to put back the focus in the company, which has seen in a couple of years, the quantifiers just had them, Jawbone and Nike, have multiplied, further including the threat of smartwatchs and smartphones themselves.

These past few weeks have been testing at Engadget its most complete model so far in the market, the Fitbit Charge HR, a quantifier that has not had problems proving to be the most complete on the market by far, boosted to that step in our review because its continuous pulse measurement. Both Sony and Fitbit can boast, and I’ve tried a few bracelets on my record of having the most comfortable models for this quantification. There is a nice design but their use is invaluable to the user.
The Fitbit Charge HR, since it is actually an enhanced Charge, has offered the same advantages: very comfortable, lightweight, discreet and above, with the addition that reinforced strap closure and classic watches. The solution is so well implemented that should be mandatory for the rest of bracelets with simple closure.
The Fitbit Charge screen remains visible indoors, outdoors a little less, and is not always on. For the time or navigate screens which give information there that either pressing the button on the left side, or give hints to the screen. This second option is more like a nightmare, and instead of light touches must be hit with a lot of energy.
In this screen is where you receive, as we saw with the Charge, notifications, which were limited to incoming calls. If so we set when we call the synchronized smartphone, the bracelet will vibrate and phone number or contact name calling us. It is the only led the Charge HR makes the world smartwatch and who has been alone in that it seems a success because it is well implemented.
Design Charge HR Fitbit only has let us not be submersible. There will be no problem to shower with her then holds up an atmosphere, but not recommended for example going swimming. To find differences between Charge and Charge HR just have to turn around bracelet. There’s the end of the new belt you have spoken, and of course the reader of our heartbeat. And watch out because we are not talking about a solution like most hitherto known measuring pulsations when we asked: This Charge HR measurement is continuous (you can easily disable from the application).
