Which one should I get- charge 5 or charge 6?

[bujaam]

I’ve been using charge 4 for four years and lost week the connector which connects it to the strap broke and i haven’t been able to figure out how to repair it. Meanwhile i do have a spare apple watch but i hate it. I really miss the fitbit interface, steps tracking, sleep, etc. It helped me lose a ton of weight.

So which one should be my next purchase- charge 5 or 6? Keeping in mind I don’t really require new technology as long as it works like charge 4.

Charge 5 is very good but that's just my opinion, I have had mine since February 2022 (3 years next month). Recently got a got Charge 6, it seems fine, but haven't tested it out properly yet with the stuff on it to be sure yet.

But I would recommend you try Charge 5.

Hello @bujaam 

You'll probably be better with a Charge 6 since the Charge 5 is a discontinued device.

FYI: The Charge 5 & 6 don't have altimeters which is needed to track floors, in case that's an activity that you want to continue to track.

I don't think it's necessary to have the latest tech but I do have the 6 and I'm very happy with it so far.
