My Charge 3 is beginning to give me some problems. Can’t remember when I got it, but more than 2 years ago, as I have worn it throughout the pandemic. I have a big collection of bands purchased on Amazon. Since they can be used on Charge 4, it makes financial sense to go with Charge 4, especially since you can get good deals on Charge 4 now.

What about the charging cradle? Is charge 4 and charge 5 cradle the same as charge 3? The vibration motor on my charge 3 doesn’t work but all else does. Wondering if I should update to 4 or 5. My floor counts are quite accurate. Yes, going up in elevator we will need that up. But I rarely do

In reply to Jacque. Yes is does. You can replace the bands.

Does the Charge 5 have replaceable bands? We have had the Charge 3 for 4 years and have had to replace the bands several times. I’m considering going to the Charge 5 because the face is so cracked.

It seems like every two years the screen on my device die, so I have to buy a new one. I wear it all the time, except in the shower. I track my running, bicycle riding, and hiking. It tracks my heart rate, shows me how much I sleep and in what stage, I can also log my food and water intake. I was happy with the the version 3 but since I have to get a new one anyway, I will get the 4.

In reply to Anonymous. Me, too, plus I'm not a runner or cyclist. At 68, I get my exercise caring for my 9 month old grandson, who is now crawling...soon to be walking, and then running! LOL I've been logging over 10,000 steps and more. LOL

In reply to Pher. Ha! 5 hours a day of jogging is more than enough.

I already have the charge 3 and as I’m not a runner or cyclist I can’t see any reason to upgrade to the charge 4.

In reply to Kristen Muir. Do you jog more than 5 hours a day? Then it is not for you.
