Fitbit Charge 6 is a compact fitness tracker that stands out for long battery life, basic step, sleep, and heart rate tracking, plus handy watch features like timers, text previews, and call vibrations. The gold finish is described as especially versatile with different bands, and the lower price on this color is noted as a nice deal detail. The main concerns are clunky on-device navigation, weak Google app integration, and reports of boot-loop failures or hardware issues after warranty. It is a practical pick if you want simple tracking and can live with Fitbit's software quirks.
Common Questions (5)
Some units have lasted 2 years or more and are still working fine, but there are also reports of boot loops and failures shortly after the warranty ends. A practical takeaway is to buy with a credit card or other extended coverage if you want extra protection.
It records heart rate all day and shows a graph in the app, with current heart rate visible on the device or in the app. It also handles basic step, sleep, and exercise tracking, and samples heart rate more frequently during tracked workouts.
Basic stats and tracking still work without the premium AI-powered analysis. The subscription is tied to extra analysis features rather than the core step, sleep, and heart-rate functions.
Yes, the Charge 6 can last nearly a week on a charge, with one report of just under 7 full days on a Charge 2. That makes it much easier to use for daily tracking without nightly charging.
It can be a solid choice for steps, sleep, heart rate, watch functions, timers, and call/text notifications, but the on-device interface is clunky and the Google Health app is text-heavy. If you mainly want basic tracking, it still works; if you want a polished smartwatch experience, it may feel limited.

They also deleted the thread that discussed this issue. Just another F'ed up company now. Go with Garmin stuff if you can.

also does this allow me to record by pulse in detail all the time or does it only start working when it decides to work (to save battery)? i basically want to track my pulse all day (with high accuracy) and then have it generate a report of that
