Don't have one. Any input on TSV?

I have it, love it and actually Q has the best offer of anyone did all thru the holiday sale period. It's very interactive and fun. I have tried 3 different models and like that's its a watch look.

I've had an older model that recently fell apart (but I did get my money's worth).

I am going to buy the Fitbit Charge 2, but I'm going to Costco. It is $10 more but I believe it's worth the extra $10. That way if something happens to it I can take it back to Costco, no questions asked.

I have the fitbit alta which I love. I had the charge but it was so bulky and uncomfortable. I hardly even know I'm wearing the Alta other than when it vibrates to tell me to get up and go for a walk!

I have been debating with myself for a week. I DO need something to keep me moving. I wear a higher end pedometer everyday, but still struggle with motivation to move when it is so cold and snowy outside. Most of my friends and colleagues that used to wear a Fitbit are not wearing them anymore. Lots of different reasons... What to do!?

@mac116

For me it was about finding the fitbit that was actually comfortable to wear. I think so many of the models are made for larger wrists? I don't know but I tried three different ones before landing on the Alta. It's not as fully featured as the Charge, but I wear it and use it which, for me, makes it a winner.

@mac116 I think you would enjoy it and if you are using the pedometer,you would use the Fitbit and enjoy it more.I love to see how many steps and calories that I have for the day.I also like to see the amount of stairs I have climbed.You can set it up to challenge against friends and family too.

My oldest daughter has worn one of these things for a few years. She's an exercise nut! (inherited the gene from her Dad, obviously)..Ha!

Anyway, I asked her how it really, I mean really knew that she'd taken X amount of steps...come on...each person's walk/run distance is different. There is no way it can really calculate a person's spatial distance.

The Charge 2 also has challenges you can do by yourself for example a walk thru New York. It shows you in real time how much you are doing on your wrist with just a tap or press of the button. You can also change the configuration of the face where the watch is. It can buzz you to walk. You can leave the watch band on to charge it and charges so quickly.
