Color not “olive”

Two issues. 1) The color is closer to line than olive. 2) It does not come with a frame. That means it is a bit difficult to change out. One must remove the old band and attach this one. Exactly like changing the bands on a regular watch. Takes a few minutes, not a few seconds. But it is a more comfortable fabric than the rubber or metal bands.

Love this. Started with a charge HR over two years ago and then moved to the Surge. I am now using the Blaze. Considered the Apple but I like the battery life on Fitbit and the sleep tracker is awesome.

Hard to adjust

I had read about the fragility of the little plastic “link remover” on line but that did not stop me from ruining it also. Luckily one can just clip segment of a pape clip and use something light but solid to tap out the pin. The watch band itself, once adjusted is great.

I travel quite a bit. Which means rather than uppluuing my phone, Bluetooth and other chargers from my office, I buy a second set and keep them in my suitcase. This works as well as the original Fitbit model.

Pretty good.

I'm glad I bought it but it has a few issues. The battery did not last very long and stopped charging after one charge. It told me it wasn't a real Canon battery. That was problematic because I bought it just prior to going on vacation to have a better camera than my IPhone 7. I found two aftermarket batteries and a car charger on the road and they worked so well, I really only needed one. It is a much better camera, than the IPhone 7, but my biggest disappointment was my inability to get decent photos of the stars and moon in the desert sky. I tried every setting for hours and hours. Vibrant is a little too "vibrant" It will take a woman's face from "discreet" to saloon hooker. LOL. The Zoom feature was the best part. For my taste, it has a few too many artsy settings to throw fairy dust on your photo but I guess to each his own. I guess the sad part is that I will probably need to run all my vacation photos--- (600) through a photo app or software before I post them. But they are good photos to start with. But my wife just bout an IPhone 8 and it takes a better standard picture than this camera if you don't need zoom and 20mp density photos. The other nice thing is that adding another 600 photos to my IPhone might start giving me memory issues, at least with cloud back up. So I am glad I bought it, but will use it for the zoom feature in the outdoors mostly.

Excellent purchase

This is a great compact recorder with a surprisingly sensitive microphone. You need to read the instructions because due to the small size, the features are not fully intuitive by looking at the controls. But they are not difficult once you read them. I like the capability of using regular batteries if the rechargeable one gets depleted. I keep this in my briefcase. The only recommendation I have is that a carrying case to protect it would be a good idea. I found a plastic cover that fits it exactly and is crush proof. I am a little hard on equipment when I travel. :-)

Worth the cost

Inexpensive but it does not hold the charge for long periods. However you can still get that emergency boost you need when electricity is not available. If it is freshly charged it is good for 80% on my nIphone,. If not, about 30%

Iphones are getting absurd

Verified Purchase:Yes
My older IPhone broke, and I just couldn't get myself to pay $750 for something that would be obsolete in 90 days. Apple finally managed through hubris to price point me to try Android. Glad I did. Viruses are an issue, but unless you are candy crush app happy, for the average busi9ness home use this phone was 90% as good for a fraction of the price.

I needed this to "downgrade" an IPhone 6 for a child for disciplinary purposes while still allowing her emergency and Telephone contact. The phone provides basic safety but no frills and a VERY reasonable cost. And it seems to have solved thd disiplne problem. Have switched back to the IPhone but she knows the other is still in the drawer. :-)

Is this camera good for macro photography?

You have to play with it to get the settings right but it was surprisingly good, if not fully user friendly.

Does this camera take good pictures at night. I have an older model Canon and the night pictures that I have taken are not good. I have tried every mode and setting that I can think of but the pictures still look terrible.

I went to the Utah dessert and spent hours truing to get good night photos. I tried every setting and sat there for over an hour. I even had a tripod. Nothing worked. It does okay for something like a low lit tent glowing the night, but I could not get decent pictures of the night sky.
