– stylish design, simple and easy to use display, good battery
– everything else is rubbish, paired with the most bizarre mobile app ever

GARMIN:
– broken after 1 ½ years
– If you use GPS you have not enough battery for a full day cycling or hiking
– GPS will hardly connect satellite. It regularly happens that I have already run 2 to 3 km before it starts to track me ..
=> unrelialable

Didn’t Fitbit (or whoever you bought them from) replace the devices? Less than one year of life seems unreasonably short.

I’m currently trying to decide on a replacement for my Misfit Shine, and longevity is an important factor. Shame nothing has the battery life…

Very poor quality batteries. Would not buy the Fitbit . I plan on getting the Garmin.

There is no setting to change how long it stays on.
