Con
Poor use of the large display
The fitness tracker's screen takes up a small amount of the front face. The glass bezels and casing take up most of the front.

Very easy to read, even in bright sunlight
The Fitbit Blaze is a great option for outdoor use thanks to how easy it is to see the display even in bright sunlight. The clear and bright display uses plenty of color for better clarity.

Con
Requires your smartphone for GPS tracking
The Blaze lacks a built-in GPS so it can't track the route of your runs on its own. It can, however, be paired with your smartphone to use its GPS and track the route that way.

Pro
Wide range of wrist straps available for a more personalized look
If you don't like the basic rubber wrist strap the comes with the tracker, you can change out the strap for more premium options. There are many different styles available including leather, silicone, or stainless steel in a variety of colors.

Con
Inconvenient to charge
To charge the Blaze fitness tracker, you need to remove the main module and lock it into its charger.

Pro
Long battery life for being so feature-rich
While it varies somewhat, many people have been reporting that the fitness tracker usually lasts 5 full days on a single charge. In general, the more features a tracker has, the faster it will drain the battery. 4 or 5 days is an impressive charge compared to other trackers with similar features (continuous heart rate tracking for example).

Interesting design
The Blaze has a techie look to it that some may find a nice change from the usual sporty-appearance of trackers. It is fairly lightweight and the design isn't offensive, it's something you can wear every day.

Continuous heart rate tracking eliminates risk of forgetting to activate the feature
The Fitbit Surge fitness tracker has automatic, continuous, wrist based heart rate tracking. Heart rate data is stored at one second intervals during exercise, and at five second intervals during non-exercise activities.

Con
Might cause skin irritation for some
A number of people are reporting the Surge causes skin irritation. According to the company it's a very small percentage of customers.

Pro
LCD screen that can display multiple stats without the need of using the app
Similar fitness trackers depend on Bluetooth in order to relay info to a smartphone. Fitbit Surge can display information locally on the display which is far more convenient.
See More
Top
Con
Screen prone to inadvertent touches
It's really easy to accidentally brush up against the fitness tracker's watch and end up on screens that the user wasn't intending to navigate to. This forces you to swipe back to the correct screen.

Pro
Lets users log meals by voice
Users can tell Surge what was eaten, and a database will be used to match the entry with nutritional information.

Con
Fairly big investment
While it's one of the most advanced trackers that Fitbit offers, it comes with a hefty price tag.

Does not need to be recharged frequently
The battery lasts 5-7 days which is one of the longer lasting options for rechargeable fitness trackers.

Pro
Easy to operate compared to display-less options
While Surge easily syncs with iOS, Android, and Windows phones, it does not depend on them for functionality. The touch screen and physical buttons are a huge step up from display-less models.

Social component to help keep you motivated
The Zip keeps you motivated through friendly competition. Along with giving you a rank among your friends, you can also cheer them on or taunt them.
See More
Top
Con
Lacking many of the features that fitness trackers often offer
The Fitbit Zip only tracks distance, steps, and calories burned. It's basically a pedometer with a smart tracking platform you can use for manually tracking the rest of your day. It can't tell you stairs climbed or heart rate, and there is no alarm, sleep tracking, or GPS.
See More
Top
Pro
Easy to hide under your clothes
The Fitbit Zip fitness tracker is very small, so you can easily wear it somewhere that it will be hidden (belt, pocket, bra strap, etc.). Unlike most trackers which have wrist bands, you don't have to worry about trying to make it blend in with what you're wearing.
See More
Top
Con
Issues with the battery not working
The contacts in the device are very sensitive. If you don't place the battery in just right, it will only work for a short period of time before the battery needs to be readjusted or replaced. Even when following instructions provided by the company, some people report that still can't get it working properly. The battery may end up lasting days instead of the promised 4-6 months. You can see how to properly change the battery here.

Pro
Fitbit app lets you track a variety of health-related stats
The app doesn't only display the stats from your device, it also lets you track a variety of different health-related stats by entering them manually. You can log your food for the day, how you slept, activity, weight, and more.
See More
Top
Con
Easy to lose
The tiny size of the Fitbit Zip makes it very easy to lose track of. Rather than a wrist watch like many other trackers, it only has a slide on clip. The clip is fairly secure for normal activity, but you may knock the tracker off without realizing it.

Pro
Automatic synching that's easy to setup
The Fitbit Zip fitness tracker wirelessly syncs with both PC and smartphones via the Fitbit app. After getting it set up you don't even think about syncing, it's just automatic.

Con
Lacks a rechargeable battery
The Fitbit Zip fitness tracker runs on a 3-volt lithium-ion battery that lasts between 4 and 6 months. It requires getting a new battery every time it runs out of charge.

Informative and clear display that's easy to read
For its size, the Alta fitness tracker has a large display. The display will show steps, distance, calories burned, active minutes, and sleep time. You can switch between these by tapping the side of the display (there is no button). The screen is easy to read at a glance while on the move except in bright settings.
See More
Top
Con
Fairly basic features which limits the information you'll receive from the tracker
The Alta fitness tracker is designed to be more of a passive tracker for the Average Joe as opposed to a complete activity tracker for enthusiasts. There is no GPS or heart rate monitor, so the stats you get are limited to steps, rough distance traveled, estimated calories burned, active minutes, and sleep tracking.
See More
Top
Pro
Many different wrist band options available to suit your taste
The Alta itself comes in 4 colors: black, teal, purple and plum. While expensive, you can swap out the band. Classic bands cost $30, leather bands cost $60, and stainless steel bands cost $100.

Top
Con
The device cannot be used without a smartphone or a computer
In order to activate the device for usage, it must be paired with a smartphone and/or a PC (through a USB dongle), and an account must be registered through Fitbit.
See More
Top
Pro
Reminds you to move every hour
The Alta will remind you about your move alerts each hour. By default, it suggests 250 steps each hour and it will vibrate 10 minutes before each hour is over to give you enough time to accomplish the micro-step goal.
See More
Top
Con
Difficult to see the display when outdoors
The display is quite dim which makes it very difficult to read when in bright settings.
See More
Top
Pro
Will fit almost any wrist size
The Alta is available in three different sizes (small, large, and extra large). Each size can be adjusted by a minimum of 1 inch. This is a great tracker for people with wrists below or above average size who may have trouble finding a comfortable fit with other trackers.
See More
Top
Con
Display is off by default
To manually turn on the display you must double tap the side of the tracker which can be difficult to do properly. It can also turned on automatically by the appropriate wrist/arm movement for checking the time. There is no way to keep the display on so it may take some fumbling every time you want to look at the display.

Lightweight and comfortable to wear
As a result of the Alta having a slim design, it is both lightweight and very comfortable to wear.

Week long battery life
The fitness tracker's battery can last a full week before you need to recharge it - quite a bit longer than most activity trackers.

Tracks calories burned very accurately
The amount of calories you burn daily is adjusted based on your weight and age. That's great, if you’re on a diet due to health issues and need precise data.

Con
Inclined to rust
A big flaw in the build is that if you wear this pedometer continuously around your neck, the bolts that hold the battery in start rusting from your sweat. The housing ends up rusty and impaired.

Pro
Easy to wear discreetly
The pedometer is small and unnoticeable. You can put it in your pocket or attach to your belt without worrying if it's going to ruin your outfit.

Top
Con
Doesn’t work well if accidentally displaced
If you’re not careful about always having this pedometer in the right position (with the lanyard loop up), it tends to over-count your steps. It starts counting in random motions, jiggles and accidental sways. Keep it attached to your pocket, or bra, to get the best results.

Pro
Extremely long battery life
The battery of this pedometer lasts about 6 months.

Con
You eventually have to replace the battery
Even though the battery lasts for a long time, you will be eventually required to buy a new one for $2-3 as a replacement.

Pro
Very accurate step count
If your attach this pedometer firmly to your pocket, or bra, it will count the number of steps you make with high precision. It’s achieved by taking your personal data – height, weight, into account.

Con
Doesn’t connect with your smartphone
You will not be able to get notifications from your phone, control your playlist, or use the GPS.

Convenient to wear
You can put it in your pocket, attach to your hip/belt, or wear around your neck and it will count your steps perfectly. Be sure to check that it’s in the right position; it doesn’t work accurately upside down.
