Overpriced pedometer, but I love him :)

The Fitbit Flex comes with 2 bracelets (small / large), the Fitbit itself, Mini Manual (the nix hergibt) dongle to connect and charger.

The deduction is equal to explain at this point - the charger is spinning! From the beginning it has gezickt - inserted Fitbit kur flashing of LEDs (load indicating) and walked the LEDs and upload it took not only one hour but hours :(
I then found out that the solution is "secured with rubber band" or "hold" all the time - but is not the point of it! Meanwhile, I have bought a new charger for NoName under 7 - it works perfectly! So much for the deduction :)

What else is there to say?

The Fitbit Flex is a fancy pedometer. It communicates via Bluetooth - the PC / laptop via the dongle and a compatible mobile phone directly - Attention is required Bluetooth 4.0 / Bluetooth Smart, my Galaxy Note 1 was so out in terms Synchro, but that's what the laptop and eventually a new Smartphone.

From the steps of distances and calories are derived which also displays the Dashboard. The steps you can see exactly m Dashboard, or you knock on the Fitbit and x the 5 LEDs light up to indicate the area in which you move - currently I have 10,000 steps a day goal (manually adaptable), ergo a LED stands for 1-1999 , 2000-3999, etc.

In addition to steps it measures "the quality of sleep" (awake, restless - or simply the period) and you have set the option silent alarms that remind you with a gentle vibration / wake.

The Fitbit Flex is water repellent - but I prefer him prefer the shower, and contrary to some Rezis the net I would not put him to swim - especially since you always have the option in the tool nachzutragen activities!

The Flex is among se limited to steps - the tool and connect to apps / programs such Runtastic, Endomondo, Weight Watchers, lose it, Runkeeper, My Fitness Pal and Spark Pople opens the functionalities. However, I use only the connection to WW to "automatically" handles to collect - the connection is one-sided, Fitbit transfers the activity, WW converts it into active points, not more. Keep my Runtastic profile "clean" (I want there not any movement, but only real sport see) because I draw my only runs on and correct the following values ​​in the Fitbit program where I exactly under the "Training" running time and mileage entries. Otherwise I use de possibilities of the program only in the basic functions, the program would (for a fee) offer a lot more, but I see no benefit to date.

For Style / feel-good factor - the bracelet is comfortable, the pink / magenta color like me - I'm excited about the lifetime. For a change I have now other bands at Amazon, I'm excited about the new bands. By looking at the tarted it is conscious how little you move partially - now I'm building a conscious walks, and eighth regardless of Running always create 10,000 steps - just to remain flexible and fit, sounds simple, but it's not! There are - GSD rare - day because I am the evening under 2,000 steps - but thereby I visualize it, I pull myself to go for a walk again, yet och to pack the 10,000.

All in all, I wanted to miss the Flex never, but really need well;)
