You can configure the display of the watch face, as well as what metrics it tracks, what pages it displays, and what workouts you can launch from the Charge 2 itself. Much of the configuration of the Charge 2 happens on the Fitbit app for smartphones, which the device communicates with via wireless Bluetooth connection. Because the device isn’t overloaded with functionality, this navigation method works just fine, although there are times when finger taps aren’t detected as well. This isn’t a true touch screen instead there’s an accelerometer in the Charge 2 that detects finger taps.

Navigating through the device is done by pushing on the side button for going through menu pages, and tapping on the screen to go into options.

Fitbit says not to do it up too tightly as long as the PurePulse array on its underside keeps contact with your skin, it’s fine.Ī full charge sees the Charge 2 last me about four days a top-up takes under two hours. Its thickness, and how densely it’s concentrated, differs from how many of my wristwatches feel on the arm, though. Wearing the Charge 2 is much like wearing a normal wristwatch. Today I’ll talk about how it is to live with, and if it’s any good. Previously I unboxed the Fitbit Charge 2 wearable fitness tracker and gave a brief overview of its technology.
