Fitbit Flex 2 Review

Fitbit Flex 2 is very fashionable, to say the least. It comes in four colors and it features a minimalistic design which is sure to attract a broad audience. It is able to track your sleeping habits, the number of calories you burned, and the distance you covered. When you order, you receive both the small and the large band for the tracker. One of the features that make is great for swimmers, scuba divers, etc, is the fact that it is completely waterproof. It will also track your sleeping routine.

Pros / What Customers Like:

  • The fact that this fitness tracker is waterproof makes it ideal for swimmers and for people taking part in water-based activities.
  • It will track your sleep habits and it can also wake you up by a gentle vibration.
  • The price is great for new fitness activists who are looking for their first fitness tracker.

Cons / What Customers Don't Like:

  • Some customers have reported that the battery life gets worse after a while and it’s not as great as it is with other Fitbit bands.
  • Some people say that it lacks a variety of functions and that it’s not worth it.

Verdict:

Fitbit Flex 2 is a good fitness tracker for beginners because it’s fashionable, it contains the basic functionality you would expect from it, and the price is not as high as you would see with other fitness trackers. However, most users will say that it feels blank because there are no special functions you normally expect from Fitbit bands, for example measuring your heart rate. It will alert you if you receive a call or a text and it uses LED lights to show you how more you need to move to reach your daily objective. Overall, it’s a nice purchase.
