Water proof? Yes! this device is water proof but i advice you not to shower or swim with it because it is still an electronic device, somehow i still nurse this notion that electronic devices respect water.

PROS AND CONS

In general, the only cons with this product is that it overcounts steps and under counts active time. The bitfit charge HR is made with a very sensitive sensor, so any semi vigorous movement of the arm is counted as a step even when you are just driving.

In a day, you may be getting over 2000 steps but really you only made 1500 steps. So if your workout or exercise has to do with running or walking or jogging, then you must know that you need to do some manual calculations from the results the device gives you in order to give yourself a pretty honest result for your workout.

From my own personal observation, i found out that this device subtracts 30 minutes out of every 1 hour of active time leaving me with only 20 minutes. This occurred while in the gym, i work out for one hour four to five times in a week but hey! whenever am through with a days workout i check my active time and what i see is only 20 minutes.

However this con, to me is kinda an advantage because i now need to increase my workout time length to get a greater active time count if i so much desire.

You must know that i only made this observation with a single fitbit device, as you already know sometimes electronic devices come with their own unique problems so you must bear in mind that if you buy this device it may or may not come with its own unique con.

On a general note, Amazon has sold over thirty thousand pieces of fitbit charge HR. 57 percent of the buyers gave it a 5 star review, 10 percent gave it a 4 star review, 8 percent gave it a 3 star review, 7 percent gave it a 2 star review and 12 percent gave it a 1 star review.
So you can see that its no risk purchasing it for yourself and your family.
Just live healthy!!!
