Changing From Fitbit to Amazfit Fitness Tracker

     After many reliable years with different Fitbit Fitness Trackers, I’m jumping ship.   Since the Google acquisition, Fitbits have become bricked.  Would’ve been a loyal Fitbit user for life, but I’m done.

 

      Countless pairing, re-cyncing, 3-button push resets, changing clock faces, all just to get the Charge 5 to work per their instructions to everyone.  A Quick look at the discussion boards over the years, shows the mounting frustration with the company. Original Tech support jumped ship as they too, were fed up with the acquisition.  

Now onto Amazfit.  I would’ve preferred Garmin, but the price point for Amazfit was the lure.  I don’t use trackers for sleep or calorie counts, mainly logging fitness, sporting activities, cardio tracking, steps, etc…Getting ready to set up and test drive this new Amazfit tracker.

 

Anyone have any success with it?  Likes, dislikes?

 Or other trackers you like?

Loving the Amazfit 7 Fitness Band so far.  it’s been a few days since setting it up, and I wish I had switched sooner from Fitbit.  Lots of data to extract from workouts.  Easy to read, customizable features. So far so good.
