Nike’s Fuelband may not play nice with Google phones
But the sports giant has got one thing right
It keeps things simple. While its Fuel points for movement are a bit arbitrary
They’re all you get
And they’re a simple way to keep urging you on - do a bit more of what you’re doing
Whether that’s walking
Rowing
Or even running for the bus. There’s a lot to take in with the Fitbit Flex

The Flex is FitBit first wristband tracker and it brings a lot to the table. It does almost everything the FitBit One does, including some of the strongest social features, and its shower-safe water resistance and 24/7 wearability make it much more conven...
If you're into the activity tracker idea, Fitbit is definitely a brand to trust. They are well known for step tracking and have made it a bit better with the Flex. Comfortable wear and wireless syncing make this activity tracker a breeze to use. I don't t...

With the Flex, Fitbit has created a great-looking, easy to use and friendly tracker design – across both hardware and software. The wristband looks and Fe's great and performs well, pulling off the trick of being almost invisible when you don't need it an...
Comfortable to wear for extended periods of time, Great battery life, Interchangeable bands are available in lots of color options, Cheaper than many other options, Custom alarms let you remind yourself of anything with a gentle vibration on your wrist
Calorie count is exaggerated in my experience, as is step count in some instances, Clasp on the band can easily get snagged and come undone
The Fitbit Flex is one of the most versatile trackers when it comes to style but it isn't the best on the market where accuracy is concerned. Unforunately I had a similar experience with the Force which concerns me and makes me lean towards other offering...
