Blaze and Charge HR do I need both?!

[bstngirl]

Got my Blaze today I'm excited nervous and wondering do I need my charge Hr?!
Anyone planning to do multi tracker or just go all in with blaze?!

I haven't even put mine on yet it's charging up it looks soooo nice!

@bstngirl How can you NOT put it on??!!  I couldn't wait to put mine on.  I have not charged it yet as I have been playing/configuring it all afternoon.  Will probably charge tomorrow AM.

I don't have a Charge HR, so I can't really answer your question.  (I had a Charge.)

I plan on keeping my Charge HR to use when I'm doing yard work, stuff like that and to wear while my new baby is charging.  Yeah, I put mine on, almost directly out of the box lol.

Was thinking of using my charge HR for sleeping since it is smaller. Like the idea of using when working in the yard etc too.

@Kmransom123 the anticipation is building for sure lol. It's so nice I almost don't want to wear it I know that sounds crazy! I'm going to let it charge all night Also I ordered a screen protector on Amazon they will probably arrive this weekend, lol. I'm worried I'll scratch that screen?!

[bstngirl]

Hmm I like that idea using the charge Hr around the house, I usually work out on my lunch break but evenings and weekends dong housework and chasing 3 yr old may be better to use the charge then.

They say the screen is Gorilla Glass three, like they put on the Surge.  I may or may not put a screen protector on mine, most likely not.  I specifically asked customer service  what the watch face was made of since I have several large, deep scratches on my Charge HR and didn't want the same experience on an even more expensive tracker.

The blaze isn't as bulky as I thought I wish the band were a bit narrower or tapered where it buckles. It's a little wider than the charge, sleeping is a good idea. I wonder also if I will lose steps? I had a issue with that on the iOS app interchanging the flex and charge.

Yeah I was thinking I would sleep with my HR. I think the Blaze is a bit clunky to go to bed with. Plus I like pressing the button on the HR right before I doze off. I understand there is no button to press on the Blaze. I think it just calculates when it "thinks" I've gone to sleep.

I do both plus more. I like what I see on many devices:

I slept with mine last night, and didn't notice it being on at all. I have small wrists, and having it on all night was fine. I did turn off quick view as I noticed throughout the day my movements were making it activate. 

So far I am very pleased with mine. Now my husband is thinking he may want one.  

Edited because it was obvious I have not had enough coffee - many typos

I plan on keeping both my Charge HR and Blaze however the Blaze has now become my primary tracker. I too wore it to bed last night and didn't notice any difference between the feel of it and the Charge HR I used to wear to bed.

[SunsetRunner]

I will be keeping my HR. Not sure when I will be wearing it. My daughter is eying it so she may eventually get it. But ... I confess I ordered the Alta and plan to switch between the Alta and the Blaze, wearing the Blaze most of the time but switching to the Alta when I want something dressier. Love it that I have so many options!

[bstngirl]

Yes me too Carol! I also have my eye on the Alta holding out to see if it's going to come in gold tone. It looks so nice

[szidlon]

Great minds think alike lol.  My first thought when I saw the Alta was that it was really nice, dressy looking tracker and maybe I should cancel my Blaze order and get it instead.  I'm pretty attached to my HR readings so that didn't happen, but I do plan on getting an Alta when they become available in the stores.  I want to see if it looks as nice in person as it does online before I buy one.

[Rich_Laue]

I also find that I have many options, plus still have tje One connected to its own account. 

[mcrmama]

Yes, I am seriously considering getting an Alta for those times I want something for going out or dressing up.  I have a small wrist so thinking the Alta may be nice for that.  I have not yet received my Blaze yet, but I like the feature set it offers for working out and every day use.
