But surely that means that the Charge is equally as good? Well, yes, but the competition has caught up in the time it has taken Fitbit to replace the Force with the Charge. So, while the Fitbit Charge is still a good fitness tracker, it’s not the most fea...
The Fitbit Charge is a decent fitness tracker, just like the Fitbit Force on which it's based. Unfortunately the competition has caught up and in some instances surpassed the core feature set that we first saw in 2013 on the Force. The Charge is still wor...

With the release of the Charge, Fitbit has potentially made things a little awkward, especially since it hasn't come at the same time as the Charge HR, what will potentially be a worthwhile upgrade thanks to the inclusion of technology that could make the...
