Hi Fitbit community
I have only used very budget-friendly trackers so far but I wanted to upgrade to a better device. I am thinking of Inspire 3 or Charge 6 since these two match my preferences and budget. I am aware of their pros and cons and some differences but I have no idea about their durability and user experience. I saw videos and articles about these two but users (here and on Reddit) have raised issues about their life and reliability.
Garmins are expensive and smartwatches don't have batteries. So, I need your honest opinions. I don't want to waste the money that I have saved. I am aware of 1-year warranty (in India) but don't want a ruined experience.
So, kindly share your thoughts and your experience and help me in taking a calculated risk. Or if you have any other tracker in your band then do let me know. I am an android user so no Apple watch. Or should I go with Huawei Band 7 (cheaper and minimal risk)

Given my lifestyle (due to my job and the fact that I travel, I spend a lot of time outside), I would go with the Charge 6 since you can see it better in the sunlight.

@DramaQueenDiva thanks for sharing your views. I am afraid of the longevity of the (recent) Fitbits. Many users are complaining about various issues. Perhaps I should wait for 1-2 months to see how things pan out. Hopefully, I won't regret later with my buying decision.

Hello @srtk12
It is very difficult choosing a good tracker. My Charge 5 suddenly died after a year and I got the Huawei Watch Fit to replace it. It's great! The app is good and there are lots of choices for clock faces. I've been using it for just over a year, and touching wood, it's been fine. I'm not sure how the Inspire 3 or Charge 6 are though...
Good luck with choosing!

@Wibby thanks. I am ready to wait for 2-3 months. By that time there will be more reviews about Charge 6. And Samsung Fit 3 will also arrive by then.
