Fitbit Charge 6 is a slim fitness tracker that stands out for sleep tracking, heart rate, step data, and a battery that can last around six days. The box includes both a small and a large band, with the small size fitting wrists from 5.5 to 7.1 inches and the large from 7.1 to 8.7 inches. A newer Momentum watch face can show five data points at once, and text notifications are usable on the screen. The main drawbacks are the Google account tie in, occasional band irritation, and durability concerns ranging from corrosion at the charging point to units failing after about two years.

Common Questions (5)

  • Yes. The Charge 6 is now tied to a Google account, which can add friction if you manage multiple family devices or want a simple Fitbit web dashboard shortcut. The Fitbit website is also reported as closed, so relying on the old web experience may not work.

  • Some long-term owners report corrosion at the charging contacts, screen changes after swimming, or units failing after about 1-2 years. Others report the device still working well after extended daily use, so longevity appears to depend on wear and care.

  • Yes, if you bought it recently and are still within Amazon's return window, the AI return agent can offer a partial refund for the price difference if you keep the item. It's a YMMV option, but it can save you from returning and rebuying.

  • Reported battery life is around 6 days per charge, though some long-term owners say it decreases somewhat over time. That's enough for nearly a week of wear, but not necessarily the same as when new.

    Jinruready2rumble

  • Yes. The Charge 6 comes with a small band attached and an additional large band in the box, and the small size fits wrists about 5.5-7.1 inches around. That makes it usable for very small wrists without needing an immediate accessory purchase.

Does the standard adult size have any trouble fitting seniors with a tiny wrist snug enough for accurate readings? I doubt manufacturers assume users of child-size products have the same concerns as adults, so I'm not sure if I can find a children's product with the same features, in a similar price range.

My mom has to use a child-size blood pressure cuff on her upper arm, so I wonder if this would be too large for her bony wrist. She wears oxygen at night, so I like that this checks blood oxygen levels while sleeping, even if it only spot checks.

edit: I had to dig into the user manual but:

"Charge 6 comes with a small band attached and an additional large, bottom band inthe box. Both the top and bottom bands can be swapped with accessory bands,sold separately".

Band sizes
Small - Fits a wrist between 5.5 - 7.1" (140 mm - 180 mm) in circumference

Large- Fits a wrist between 7.1 - 8.7" (180 mm - 220 mm) incircumference

So, the smallest wrist size is 5.5"

Would a senior who is technically hopeless be able to use this, if I set everything up for them?

Can I monitor their info/view reports at least if I also log into their account on my phone (and they can stay logged in on their phone, as well)? or do I have to be within Bluetooth range of the device? Or is there a web interface I can use? Basically, is there a way I can watch for problems on a relative's device (if they know about it, keeping an eye on mom)?

Silver case with a white band and black case with a black band available for an additional $20 if you want something a little more understated.

If you just ordered this on Amazon for $99 and are still within your return window, the Ai return agent offered me a partial refund equal to the price difference if I just kept it. So YMMV, but worth a try if you just bought one

That sounds really big to me

I placed returns just saying that I didn't want it anymore and they did not give me a hard time through Amazon and either offered the refund or like this person said offered a post-purchase coupon basically refunding it partially just to keep the product

Ugh, that's doable for a price of the right slickness, but highly unfortunate. Thanks for the info, though. Repped.

I hate when accounts are tied to Google (if that's the only option) or social media, since I manage the tech for the whole family and that complicates logins. Amost universal adoption or 2fa just compounds the headache.

I guess you can add their Google account to your phone

True, but I was just hoping to add a shortcut to the logged-in Fitbit "dashboard" website (assuming there is one) on my home screen, so I didn't have to install another app. And that won't work (in one click) if the Fitbit website account is Google based.

I can switch between Google accounts, it's just less than elegant. First world problems, but a less than ideal solution.

Just a word of caution on this watch. I had one for two years, wore it daily. One morning I discovered the watch was dead after leaving it to charge. Inspecting the connection point, I saw that the metal was pitted from corrosion. Electricity and sweat don't mix. Others have reported the same issue, and it seems to happen over time, outside of warranty coverage.
