Has anybody compared fitbit results simultaneously? Specifically heart rate on my new Charge 3 compared to my old Charge HR. I am finding that at rest and low levels, the two pretty much agree, but when I get active the Charge 3 shoots up much faster and higher than the HR - I don't know which is the closer to accurate or if it is a known problem. I have never had any reason to doubt the HR readings until now

Hello @mkay17.

 

Thanks for sharing your experience and findings.

 

In this case I'd say that the Charge 3 is more accurate given that it is the latest version of the Charge line and thus the algorithms are more recent. 

 

Hope this helps out! Let me know if you have any further questions.
