Fitbit Inspire 3 Activity Tracker with 6-months Premium Membership Included, up to 10 days battery life and Daily Readiness Score

Bought as a replacement for a Surge. Chose Inspire 3 as I wanted a smaller screen. On the whole it tracks steps as you would expect, however, there are some features that aren’t as good. Firstly, you have to touch the screen for it to display the time. it’s irritating if you want to glace at the time without appearing rude. Secondly, it doesn’t record floors as it doesn’t have the software to do so. I didn’t expect a newer Fitbit not to record the measurements I have been able to note historically. It does provide detailed information about your sleep patten, it’s interesting, but like the heartrate info, I am unsure how accurate it is in reality.

Product is professionally packaged, as a result item was received undamaged. The device is secured & displayed attractively in a Fitbit branded box. The box has separate compartments to store a larger strap length and charger.Item was received promptly in line with Prime users next day delivery promise.There are both positives and negatives associated with this product.Positives:1) Easy to use and navigate around both the device its self and the Fitbit app. On the inside of the box there are three steps to get started, download the app, charge the device and sync. The syncing was simple to do by using Bluetooth on a smartphone. I personally used an IPhone to pair to the device.2) The device feels comfortable to wear. The device itself feels much like the texture of a modern day smart phone, which the straps are made of a rubber/silicon material. I had to use the larger strap option as my wrist has a circumference of 7.5 inches. The watch is light weight to wear and securely fastened with a buckle like closure.3) The device is attractive to wear and on trend for activity tracking accessories currently on the market.4) The applications on the device are; clear, concise and can be personalised for the user. It is easy to reduce the visual noise of all the features on the device by changing its settings. The device allows a user to customise goals and notifications to suit the focus of the customer.Negatives:1) The length of the charging wire is very short, resulting in the device hanging when charged via the wall. I would recommend the manufacturer double the length of the current wire to allow the device to be comfortable secured when charging. Alternatively, customer may opt to charge device through another device, e.g. laptop.Overall, I would highly recommend this product, particularly for customers wanting to increase their wellbeing without having to up skill in technology.

Pross: I have a really small wrist and it is a smaller watch so it doesn’t look too bad on my arm. I have had it for a month and a half so far and it seems to be accurate. Battery lasts for 9 days for me, technically 10 but after it goes on 20% you are getting notifications so I charge it then. It’s comfortable as well, doesn’t bother me in sleep.Cons: This model can’t have Google Pay or music so if that is something you are looking for go for another model. For some reason when I’m washing dishes, it counts that as a swim, but when I’m swimming It doesn’t register it automatically.

Works great! And is easy to use

Love my Fitbit but this is the 2nd Inspire 3 that I’ve bought from Amazon and both developed exactly the same issue. Initially the Fitbit is easy to set up with the app and it ‘pairs’ and syncs easily. Then after a while the sync only gets halfway through its update before it times out. I can again no longer use the app to see or track my progress. The Fitbit itself continues to work as a watch and to count steps when being worn but if you want anything more, don’t buy this version.

Fits nicely. Easy to set up as already had a fitbit tracker. I like the map where you have walked in the app.

Got this as needed a way to record heartrate readings and sleep. So far so good.

I really wanted to like this but in the end I think it’s not really that helpful, aka a waste of time.The step counter seems extremely generous – I know I don’t carry my phone around the house with me all day but jumping from 11k/13k to 25k seems a lot. I feel I get steps even when I’m laid out on the sofa having a snack.The heart rate is always different to the sensors on the gym machines. The gym could be wrong, the watch could be wrong… it’s not by lots but, again, it makes you wonder who’s right..The touch screen is really easy to activate accidentally and switch the auto wrist gesture activate off… and I often find a timer has been started. I have no idea when it happens but it happens a lot.The timer itself, which I wanted to use for doing planks and wall squats etc, is not really quick and easy to use. It involves a menu and, to be honest, the cheapest watch in the world could probably make this easier. My kitchen timer would be easier.The good things are that it’s quite helpful when it buzzes as your phone rings if you keep your phone on silent a lot as I miss less calls. That’s something that can be turned on or off but it’s helpful to me.The sleep analysis is good in an interesting sort of a way but gets quite boring quickly as you realise that it’s not really information one needs. Mostly it tells you you were asleep for a depressingly short amount of time, at least less than I hoped for, and although quite intriguing to see moments of REM, it’s a bit gimmicky.The app is ok – but it’s not totally free – after 6 months they want the cost of the watch itself once a year.So – that’s my take. I wore it for a month and felt like I’d have done better with a Casio. I think if you’re going to wear a ‘wearable’ and actually want to do sport and stuff then either get an Apple Watch which probably merits the usage with features or get a Garmin if you want the long battery life and also has more features. If it’s going to be there it may as well pay for your coffee, play some songs and have a map… I didn’t expect the inspire to have these but after my testing I felt like what it does have isn’t worth the bother for me.This might be good for someone (I’m thinking my parents maybe) except they would not be able to work the buttons, menus and probably wouldn’t care either. It’s a no from me and I’ll probably put it in a box somewhere now – these are non returnable and fetch about £30 on eBay once used.

Great watch, colour and functionality.Not for children: beware that you cannot set this up for a child. We managed to get around this to some extent as we had a spare ipad we could link the watch and app to. If your child has their own smart phone, again not a massive problem. But if you only have your own (parent) phone it gets messy as watch will receive calls and notifications from your phone although you can turn these functions off. I’d recommend sticking to kids versions for under 16’s

I wanted to be able to track my basic progress wrt to heart rate, recovery times, etc. etc. I wasn’t really interested in a Smart Watch … I find those physically too big when working out with free weights and weight machines.My main criteria was it had to :1/ Be comfortable and non restrictive when working out2/ show the time (clearly)3/ have a mobile app to track progress/show history4/ track/show heart rate5/ track sleep pattern6/ long battery life between chargesThis Fitbit Inspire 3 met all my requirement and a lot more – it is really comfortable and definitely doesn’t get in the way while working out… and I hardly notice I am wearing it at night.I find navigating around the actual Fitbit very easy – swipe left/right, up/down and tap for action… my only minor observation is only about 60% of the shiny 1 inch front display is actually used/functional – I would imagine the physical size of the Fitbit is due to the battery size, just a shame they couldn’t have utilised the physical size to increase the display size of the screen… but it’s not a bit problem for me.Overall, I find the Fitbit Inspire 3 absolutely perfect – does exactly what I need (and A LOT more), great mobile app for tracking/showing history, comfortable to wear, waterproof for swimming and a long battery life between charges.At £69.99 (January 2023), I would say that is good value and would definitely recommend if you’re looking for decent activity tracker (remembering, this is NOT a ‘Smart Watch’, this is a a activity tracker only).

I can hardly read some of the information displayed , otherwise excellent buy.

This is a very good fitness tracker, comfortable, waterproof and very well designed. Be warned though that it is a fitness tracker, not a smart watch. It tracks your data and puts it on a smartphone app. Its screen is too small for easy use.I bought it mainly for sleep tracking, which it does brilliantly, and was very easy to understand what information it was gathering. I also used it to track my heartbeat during runs which I found interesting. From a design perspective it’s so small I found it easy to forget i was wearing it. The only warning I have is the Fitbit plus subscription is £70 a year, but to be honest, it didn’t seem to add much, so I wouldn’t be too scared of it.Compared to an Apple Watch, I found the fitness monitoring far more granular, and easier to understand, but obviously, it lacks the rest of the features.

Accurate in recording steps and distance, fiddly when trying to navigate screens on the device and doesn’t stay on for long. Sync well with ap on phone and ipad
