Disappointed
on May 8, 2017
Posted by: BP81
I was really looking forward to getting the Fitbit Alta HR and at first thought it was great, but after a few weeks I noticed I was hitting my step numbers while sitting. My heart rate was 85 - 95 while sitting as well, which was about 20 beats too high. When working out or running it was way under. Only around 110 when I could easily count 150 on my own. You have to stand still and sometimes it updates to a more accurate reading (after about a minute) but not ideal to keep stopping while working out. Ironically the more active you are, the less accurate it is. Tried tightening but that just caused irritation...and the same inaccurate reading. I don't usually write reviews but given the level of disappointment in the main feature (HR monitor) and the inability to comment directly to Fitbit, I feel I should warn others that if they want an accurate heart rate monitor, this isn't it.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
