Accurate, but falling apart
on July 28, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased my Charge HR in January and have worn it everyday since. I have checked my heart rate via other methods and the Fitbit is usually within about 5 bpm or so. If I am walking while carrying something in my hand (so my arm isn't swinging freely), the Fitbit still counts the steps I am taking. The app provides some interesting insights beyond just tracking steps, heart rate, and approximate calories. However, like many other users reviews I have come across, just about 6 months in, the band is beginning to "bubble" and separate from the display.

Competent and Comfortable Option for Cordcutters
on July 28, 2016
Posted by: Resolution712
Verified Purchase:Yes
I've missed having the convenience of a DVR since cutting the cord a couple years ago, but the Tivo Roamio OTA finally provided a solution I was comfortable with trying. My biggest considerations prior to purchasing an OTA DVR were the quality of the tuners and the long-term viability of the unit. With the Tivo name, I was not worried about viability as compared with some of the other options. After purchasing the unit and using it for around 6 weeks, I can confidently say that the tuners in the unit are as good as if not slightly better than the tuner on my Samsung TV. The included RF remote is quick and responsive, but programing my Harmony remote has shown a little bit of lag with it's use. The included apps (Hulu, Amazon, etc) are slow to load and buffer as compared to my Roku units, but there is a convenience factor with Tivo One Pass which will keep track of shows that i am not able to get OTA as they are being added to one of my subscription services. Overall, the Roamio OTA is a competent option for those of us who don't want to spend a fortune on cable/satellite but still want the flexibility provided by a DVR.

With this new model with no mothly fee ,can you use the OTA DVR without wifi?

With the Roamio OTA and the lifetime subscription, you can connect to your network via wifi OR Ethernet cable. If you don't connect it to your network and register the unit, you will not have access to a lot of the features (like One Pass to automatically record series or the included apps like Hulu). If you pay for the model with the lifetime subscription (no monthly fee), you've already paid to register so there is really no reason not to connect it.

Can I use this with and HDTV antenna or do I need to have a cable subscription?

The Roamio OTA can only be used with an antenna, not a cable or satellite subscription.
