I have two Fitbit Charge devices. I took two months off using it. I went to go use them, one will simply not boot (turns on for 1/2 seconds and shuts off) and the other now will only stay charged for a few hours and dies. I'm not sure what's going on here, but it seems suspicious.
I have owned probably a dozen Fitbits over the years.
Not coincidentally, I own a dozen dead Fitbits.
Honestly you are better off buying the cheapest Chinese product on Amazon. Fitbits are pure fucking diarrhea in wearable form, and I eagerly await the class action lawsuit.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twelve times, uh, you can't get fooled again.
Is wooshock learning?
Can't get fooled again.
Lol. They weren't all mine. I bought one for wife, a couple more for wife's family. They didn't all die at once, each lasted about a year and I'd replace them until I was like... wait a minute
