Fitbit One review

If you want to track your fitness without a neon bracelet glowing around your wrist, Fitbit's One offers all of the benefits with a dose of subtlety.

If all we wanted to do was track steps, calories burned, and stairs climbed, the Fitbit One would be our favorite tracker. Those not interested in easily tracking sleep or relying on vibrating alarms to alert them during the day (and night) will find...

Powerful fitness tracker saddled with a subpar design

The Fitbit One can keep tabs on how well you rest, how active you are, how much you eat, and how many calories you burn, but it has a questionable design.

The ; offers an intuitive way to track and analyze your sleep, the steps you take, stairs climbed, and calories burned. Small and light, the One is very portable. Its OLED screen, which has a clock, is easy to read. It sends data to phones over Bluetooth.

The Fitbit One’s clip often comes loose. The One's Bluetooth syncing function only works with a few compatible handsets thus far.

The Fitbit One is a feature-rich pedometer, but the wristband-style Jawbone Up and Fitbit’s own Flex are more convenient and much better deals.

Fitbit One

Getting in shape doesn't happen overnight. One good workout or one day of healthful eating on its own won't change your body. Only through consistent vigilance and good habits can we keep fit. And that's why I love the Fitbit line of products so...

Priced competitively. Sleek, stylish, and discreet. Logs distance, steps taken, stairs climbed, and more. Cool new silent alarm feature. Amazing battery life. Syncs with iPhones via Bluetooth

Setting up wireless syncing can be slightly confusing

The Fitbit One is a sleek, sturdy, and affordable device that can help you monitor your physical activity and motivate you to increase it. It's the best fitness gadget on the market for non-athletes.

Fitbit One Review: Slightly Flawed, But Still A Great Way To Quantify Yourself

The original Fitbit first saw the light of day over four years ago, and boy how things have changed since then. Now it seems like everyone from old incumbents to ambitious upstarts have offered their own takes on the activity-tracking formula, so how...

Fitbit One wireless activity tracker

Fitbit's new One has a brighter screen and a new design

Market leading hardware ; Bespoke accessories ; Great camera ; Relatively inexpensive

Too tall

Arguably the OnePlus One is the coolest smartphone around. The 5.5in Android device runs refined CyanogenMod software, models leading hardware and manages to do so from $299 in its home country of China. The real downside to this smartphone is its...

Video: Fitbit One review - tracks steps, stairs, calories and sleep with this great wearable

The One also has an altimeter, which means it will reward you for climbing stairs instead of taking the lift. Unlike trackers without an altimeter, you'll see a higher calorie count when you use the Fitbit One.
