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.

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.

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.

Comfortable and secure
The elastic band comes in three sizes and is soft and malleable. The H7 sits pretty snugly against your chest and doesn't slip around while you're using it.

Con
Bluetooth doesn't work underwater
Unfortunately, the H7 can't communicate via Bluetooth when it's submerged. You'll have to use one of Polar's other GymLink enabled watches to get functionality while swimming.

Very accurate
The H7 was tested against an EKG, the medical standard for measuring heart rate, and it was found that the H7's readings matched up with the EKG 99% of the time. You can see the accuracy tests here.

Waterproof, so it's great for swimmers
The H7 is properly waterproof, making it a good option for swimmers. However, when underwater, your Bluetooth connection won't work so you're forced into using one of Polar's GymLink enabled watches.

Pro
Supports a wide range of connectivity options
The H7 can connect via Bluetooth Smart or GymLink. It can connect to a wide range of apps (like Runkeeper, Runtastic, or Strava) and works with Bluetooth sports watches as well. The GymLink connection means it'll work with Polar's other sport watches or activity trackers.

Pro
Long battery life with replaceable cell batteries
The H7 runs on a CR2025 coin battery which, as long as you disconnect the device from the strap when not in use, should last you upwards of a month before needing to be replaced.

Reps counting feature does not work for some exercises
Reps counting feature is not reliable, sometimes it misses few reps and with some exercises it can count 1 rap, even if you did 10 reps for example. And it can't detect when you start the exercise, so you have to start and stop the counter manually. In practice I frequently forget to start and to stop the counter so after some time I simply sopped using this feature.

Difficult to check current time because display most of the time is turned off
In order to turn on the display, for example to see current time, you need to raise you hand and after some delay display some times turns on, sometimes not. Other option is to double tap the display, which requires both hands. If you frequently checking current time, it is really annoying.
