Hello all!
Long time Fitbit user. I started with the Flex, loved it! Upgraded to the Alta (non-HR) which is what I have now. I am looking to possibly upgrading my Alta, as it's having trouble syncing. I've had it for years, and it's had a good life. I would love to hear from other longtime Fitbit/Android users to what they like about the new lineup of products.
If you can't already tell, I have always gravitated towards the slimmer options as I do have tiny wrists. Big, bulky watches just look odd on me. I would ideally love to have all the same features I currently enjoy (step counting, sleep monitoring, exercise monitoring).
So, Fitbit peeps, what are you using now? What do you love/dislike?

Hello @Susi985
I've used a few different styles of Fitbit. I began using the Flex, went to the Charge, then the Blaze and now the Alta HR. The next one I want to try is the new Inspire (not sure if I want the HR feature or the one that lets me use a clip) as it's a slim style. The ability to get the optional clip and use it like the One or Zip (both discontinued) has me leaning more toward it. Using Android, I have been fortunate to avoid problems syncing, but I don't always have the latest version.
Tiny wrists means you could use the Ace, which has a band about half an inch smaller than the small regular bands for adults. The Ace is more of a basic tracker, which is why I think you might like the new Inspire series better.
Whatever you get, please let us know. Glad you're with us.

Thanks for your input. I brought the Inspire HR home today. I'm not sure that I'm going to keep it. It's not too wide, in fact, it looks a lot like my Alta, which I am really happy about. However, it is so bulky!

@Susi985maybe you'd rather have the Inspire, without the HR feature, which can use an optional clip?

I'm really not looking to use a tracker with a clip. I just need some time to get use to the bulk of the heart rate feature. I'm glad my "old" Alta is still fully functional. On days I don't want to deal with the bulk, I can just wear that instead!

Switching them out is a good way to manage things @Susi985 and you get to change your look each time you do!
