Because of my purchase, I had a Charge5 without Premium, and my wife has one with it, so I figured I'd do a comparison. Attached is a doc I created with this info, since Fitbit doesn't seem to want to provide the detail.
Bottom line, Premium does give you a little more detail, but you don't lose that much without it. I signed up for it anyway, since it's free for 6 months, but I probably won't renew after that based on what I'm seeing right now.
If I can answer other questions about the difference, I'm happy to answer. I hope the info here will help others looking at the Fitbits.

I already use an app on my phone called 'Sleep Time' that measures deep sleep, light sleep, etc (it's a free app). Wondering how that compares with that (with a phone you don't have to wear anything)

I tried using a phone app to measure my sleep as well (nothing too fancy or crazy)... but it really didn't work well for me. Besides which, those can't measure heart rate and such anyway. The Charge5 does GREAT for measuring my data... and it's surprisingly accurate. It senses when I fell asleep and when I got up pretty much to-the-minute. I'm impressed.
Of course, YMMV... like you, I saw people saying that they can't get it to work for them. How you wear it matters (for all of these types of devices, not just fitbit), and probably even your biology (how visible is the heartrate on your skin, etc). I'm dark skinned, and it works great. My wife is of Irish descent, and it works well for her too.
Regarding the heartrate accuracy... I'm not a person who likes working out AT ALL. But my resting heartrate is like 58. I have checked what the device reads on occasion because I'd see a weird number (too low, for example) and it's been correct every time. I have checked manually a few times, but most times I use an app on my Galaxy S10 which measures heart rate, and the numbers match every time I've checked (maybe a total of 10 times or so).
Anything else I can answer, I'm happy to. I'd suggest getting it at Costco or similar, where you can return it if needed, but do be prepared to tinker a bit and see what works for you...
