Blaze Product Preview

[Eagle1]

I thought I had read somewhere that there would be a product preview of the Blaze sometime in late February at Best Buy, but now I can't find where I saw that.  Can anyone confirm this?

The Blaze video sounds pretty awesome can't wait for it to come out. But one ? How hard is it to sync with your phone.

[matt9013]

Very easy to sync with your phone. Pretty much nothing you have to do really but open app and have bluetooth turned on.

Ok Good To know

Thanks for merging @EmersonFitbit.  I didn't know how to so I just reposted data for Jim518.

The blaze has no GPS tracker, so you have to bring your phone with the run....not fun. The surge is the alternative, but the wristband is breaks fast. So is the blaze coming with a GPS function, next time?

[Rich_Laue]

@Yvy I'm not sure why or why not the band on the Surge breaks fast. Some claimed it happened in 1 month, while in 10 days it will be 14 months wroth only a sign of wear on the pattern.

I really am considering getting a Blaze, but I know my wrist is relatively small and I'm afraid the square face will bug me so much I won't want to sleep with it on. Are there any retailers that have a blaze demo version so we can test it before ordering? Or do we have to wait until the Blaze is relased? 

[Fizzie94]

I believe I saw somewhere that some Best Buy stores will have a demo model.

Hopefully I help you, if not let me know so I can give you the solution and be credited with it. Since Fitbit has a 45 day period after you purchase  A product where you can return it for full Refund. You can buy it then you can buy a blaze test it for that time, and then return it if you do not like it, I recommend only 39 days at most, so you don't run into a tight deadline with the return. 

[umccki]

Thanks, I'll keep an eye out at Best Buy.

[Michaels19]

Did you accidentally overlook my idea? 

[umccki]

I saw it, but I also know if I get it and then I want to return it, I have
a tendency to forget to return it. I'd rather find a way to try it on
first.

[Michaels19]

Ok, then yes, Best Buy I have heard has models to try on, also at Best Buy you can buy it and try it on, and return it the same day if you don't like it and they are being difficult

[Rich_Laue]

It was stated in the other thread that only selected Best Buys will have demos

[EmersonFitbit]

You're the man, thanks for starting this thread @Eagle1!

I'm continuing to merge threads into this one. Thanks for contributing, all!

Why cant this be done in the UK as u now have a company in Europe?

[c2starshine]

They are being sold in Bed Bath and Beyond now.  I bought mine last night.

[c2starshine]

Very easy.  When you do the start up, they walk you through it.

[c2starshine]

They are selling them at Bed Bath and Beyond.  They don't have them on the floor, but ask and they will get it for you.
