[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1390076, member: 41816"] I've used the Fitbit flex and charge, a cheap thing from China, and now an apple watch (v luxurious present!) I would say: Buy the best brand you can afford Read the reviews v carefully Don't trust the claims on blood pressure accuracy - buy a separate bp monitor and cuff Don't expect the step count to be accurate (a 4 hour car drive made my Fitbit celebrate wildly and tell me I had hit 35,000 steps in a day) The buzzing alarm feature is awesome! They are fun, and I love them, but don't expect it to revolutionise your life. The thing that will do that is YOU not a gadget. And if you are going to do any revolutionising, then you don't need a gadget to do it... [/QUOTE]
