Tell me why you love your fitbit/step counter.
I love my Fit*****arge HR. It tracks steps, sleep, heart rate, other items and has a clock also. It is not big and bulky and I like it.
Once you wear one you won't be able to live without it. (I really like knowing what my heart rate is at.)
Good Luck in finding the right one for you, there are lots out there to choose between.
Can I tell you why I stayed away from Fitbit instead? I don't know which model-- but both my sisters had issues with the bracelets falling apart. Last Fitbit I owned was the one that clipped to a pocket or your bra-- I gave up on it after washing it by accident

I got Fitbit HR 2. With bands that you can change. So I bought 10 extra different coolers and change with my outfit.
It tells me time, so no additional watch needed. I set alarms on it to reminds me to take my meds. It tells me what I don't do- like not enough walking.
It also tells me how well I sleep. I may be in bed for 8-9 hours but get much less actual sleep. Knowing that I only got 4-5 hours real sleep can explain to me why I am tired.
That thing also traces my heart beat rate (HBR). And estimates resting HBR. When my Resting HBR gets to high- it may mean that my BP may be too low, and I need more salt, and water to raise it. Or I am dealing with too much stress. And deal with that.
I entered my weight on Fitbit app and now I have history of that for a few years.
Some Fitbit connects to the phone, but my HR 2 is iffy. It does not always do that. Probably because I use a bluetooth headset.
I have mine now for close to a year. It is no****erproof. So no good for water sports.
Some exercise I need to enter manually- like yoga.

On the rare occaison I forget my Fitbit, I panic. It keeps me moving regularly, and it's been a huge help. I have almost 18 million steps on my Fitbit, and almost 9,000 miles.
I have the Fitbit One, which is the pocket or clip-on version. I don't care for the wris****ch type.

I have several reasons why I love my Fit*****arge 2:
- It was a gift so it didn't cost me anything lol
- I don't have to wear a watch cuz it tells the time
- I set it to vibrate every hour between 10am and 5pm to remind me to get up and walk
- I bought 10 interchangeable bands so it always matches my outfit
- It tracks my pulse
- It tracks my sleep so I can see why I don't feel rested sometimes
- I use the alarm to wake up and for reminders
- It syncs with my phone and vibrates when I get a call or text if my phone is on silent or not close by
- It has a great relaxation mode that helps when u get stressed and just need a couple of minutes to chill
That's all I can think of right now
pretty I can help with, clock not so much.
I LOVE my Bellabeat leaf. It's pretty, can be worn on the wrist with a leather bracelet it comes with, or as a necklace with the chain it comes with, or clipped on your shirt like a broach.
It tracks steps, sleep and even your menstrual cycle!!!! It has mediations in the app that it encourages you to do each day.
Best part (in my opinion) is that it works off a battery that lasts for 6 months! No charging. I was constantly forgetting to charge my fitbit which needed it every 5 days.
Check it out. I get SO many compliments about mine, and when people find out its an activity tracker they are always surprised.
