What Fitbit should I buy?

Hi everybody,

I’m looking to purchase a Fitbit to help me w/ tracking my biking to work, walking @ work, and sleeping. The variety of products is overwhelming! Can anyone help guide me to a purchase?

 

Here’s what I’m looking for:

1. Must track walking and sleep, running and biking a bonus.

2. Must not be affected by a lot of sweat. I was using my iPhone as a fitness tracker, but on hot days on the farm, sweat would leak into my pocket w/ the iPhone and trigger random touchscreen features.

3. Must work and have GPS without me having my phone due to #2, but also be able to sync w/ my phone later.

 

What do y’all feel would be a good Fitbit for me?

 

Thank you,

Susan

I'll narrow down your search a bit based on requiring on-board GPS.

Your choices are Charge 4, Ionic, Versa 3, and Sense.

Before posting, re-read to see if it would make sense to someone else not looking at your Fitbit or phone.
