Back in April Microcenter had the Fitbit Charge and Alta HR for 60 bucks.
BUYER BEWARE: Fitbit sent a firmware upgrade for my Fitbit Charge HR, but when I ran the firmware upgrade the Fitbit Charge HR locked up (screen locked showing half charge). I contacted Fitbit, but they said sorry I was passed 1 year warranty period so they would not even try to repair my Fitbit Charge HR if though it was the Fitbit firmware upgrade that caused the problem.
Summary: I have a worthless Fitbit Charge HR due to faulty Fitbit's firmware upgrade. DO NOT INSTALL FITBIT FIRMWARE UPGRADE. People may want to choose a different brand than Fitbit since Fitbit will not take responsibility for problems they cause.

Seriously save your money.
My fitbit charge HR was new unused straight from the manufacturer and lasted less than 6 months before it started breaking. The plastic part that covers the charging cable broke off first, I found someone that printed 3D replacements, fixed it with a little super glue. Ok cool. Next problem was that it just stopped charging all together. It made it just past the warranty, 13 months, stopped charging, and they won't replace it. Got a second fitbit charge HR.
SAME. THING.
Have a charge 2 now, better quality, better charger, better altogether AND they went back to allowing interchangeable bands so you can get whatever color you want. Only reason I got this was because fitbit is the only thing my wellness program at work allows us to use.

here is my take: will the band develop a bubble and peel off: yes for sure. It may take months, it may take a year but it will happen. you have a warranty that is good for 1 year where they replace the product (by logging on to their website and contacting them about the defect). They ask for a photo and then send you a replacement and tell you to dispose of the old one. Are two or potentially three charge HR's worth $60? How long do you think the lithium ion battery will last even if the strap did not have a defective design--2 years maybe 3 years at most? I took the chance and got this on the last drop because it is cheaper and does the same thing as the newer version, and I am not confident the newer version will last more than 2 years before the battery becomes unusable. These are disposable, so I really just want to use it hard and see what is available in 2 years time. The only problem with my plan is if the company gets rid of all their charge HR's and there is no replacement left to send out. Then they will offer you a discount (something like 25%) off another product on their website--this will probably be the same price as buying it on amazon.

Given that my wife has gone through 2 of these, each with the exact same problem, I cannot recommend this to anyone at any price over $10. The problem is the same as pointed out more eloquently by others in this discussion. The plastic band, at the center of the watch, comes loose and ultimately falls off making the watch almost impossible to charge. It thus becomes the Fitbit NoCharge HR.
I suspect the designer of this part of the watch claims to have stayed at a Holiday Inn once.

NelsoinThere is also another issue in which it bricks itself (happened to me). My band didn't come lose.

I've had mine for awhile and no issues. I was going to get this drop but the colors and sizes are not what I use.

Do not buy this version of the Charge HR, the band will peel and break off. All the new versions have detachable and replaceable wrist bands.

I got one for my wife a year ago. The band started to crack near the sensor about a month ago and it finally broke apart a couple of weeks ago. Luckily that was a few weeks short of the 1 year warranty running out so they sent us a brand new one. My wife isn't any sort of athlete so she wasn't very hard on it. Don't expect these to last very long and the bands are not swappable. You can buy 3rd party replacement bands that include the sensor housing, but you'll need to transplant the sensor unit into the new band when your original one disintegrates.
I have a FitBit Blaze myself. That was a good purchase. The Charge HR? Not so much.
