Which Fitbit to choose?

Please can someone tell me which Fitbit to buy?! I've been umming and ahhing about it for weeks now. Just when I think I've decided I do a bit more research and read a bad review on Amazon! Does anyone have one that they love and would recommend? Between WFH and kids I do very little exercise but hoping this will provide some motivation?!

I’ve had a Charge 2 and 4. Currently have a Versa 3, which I love. I find them to be reliable and when I did have an issue, Fitbit customer service was fab.

If you’re not planning to exercise much, you could prob just get a basic FB tracker.

I've got a Fitbit versa 2 and I love it. My friend had the same one, she had an issue with it and Fitbit were great, just sent her out a new one.

Would deffo recommend

I have a Versa 3 and have found it easy to use and really motivating. I swim regularly and it’s been great for that.

However I bought it about a year ago and am having to charge the battery more often now. I’m not sure what the average lifespan is but I don’t think the battery is replaceable.

I've got a Charge 3 and love it. I think it probably overestimates calories but is good with step counts and miles walked x

It really depends what you want it to do and how much you want to spend. I had a Charge which was great for step counting but I also run so wanted built-in GPS capability for that, and I also swim and it wasn't suitable for that. I upgraded to a Garmin which does all of the above and more but it was more than twice the price of the Fitbit!

Thanks for the advice. Think I'm going to go for a Versa 3 👍🏼
