Has anyone ordered and received a Fitbit Flex yet?



Recommended Posts

I'm just wondering if anyone has the Flex yet. I just went online to buy one and it say's they are unavailable for 6-10 weeks! Oiy! I don't want to wait that long and wondering if it's worth the extra to purchase it on eBay because I'm inpatient and don't want to wait. :)

My hubby ordered one for me for Mothers Day and it hasn't arrived yet. :(

I just bought the zip. What is it about the flex you like? Our Best Buy has them in stock.

I found one in Target so I don't have to wait. :) I like that it has a sleep tracker and silent alarm compared to the other Fitbits.

The One has both of those features plus an altimeter for tracking how many floors you have climbed. I love it!

Our local Best Buy has them in stock! I have been waiting to buy mine because I keep heading reviews of inaccuracies in the pedometer. That it counts any movement from your wrist as a "step". I type all day for work, and Im concerned that it could cause some major miscalculations in my progress.

That's why I bought the zip. It got the best review for accuracy.

You'd be better with the one that attaches to your waist probably. I'm a mail carrier so the Flex is more sufficient for my work. I can't keep anything on my waist it drives me nuts. :)

The Flex has the altimeter too. They are the same just adheres to a different location on your body. :)

Having it around my wrist was one of the benefits for me. I like to wear bracelets and thought it would be completely comfortable. Guess Ill have to research some more before I decide. I've ears that the Polar T4 was a good option for heart rate/calorie counting, which I think I'm more specific towards rather than the pedometer end of it all.

Does the zip not have an altimeter?

I looked all over for my flex, ebay and craigslist were nothing but price gouging losers just trying to make money. I called everywhere around and they were back ordered for 8-10 weeks. Oddly enough, I knew Verizon carried the Fuel so I figured what the hell, I'd check. I had my flex the NEXT day from them for the regular price. Two of my friends ordered them too from Verizon.

I just checked, looks like they still have them in stock.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
