Charge 2 - cracked screen / doesn't hold bands well

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

After using my charge 2 for many months and after a while the bands keep popping off and it gets pretty annoying. I was walking outside and it fell off my arm and the screen is broken. Now only the bottom half of the screen works. Would be nice if someone could provide me with a link to a replacement screen to buy and/or a guide to how to replace it. iFixit doesn't appear to have any information on this model.

I was constantly having one side of the bands break, where it attached to the Fitbit. It always happened within warranty, so, did that, about 3 times.

Finally got tired of the time I couldn't use it, because, I had no band (it was always same side that broke).

I looked for a 3rd party replacement band, and found these wonderful mesh-like metal (except, where it connects), bands, I think the metal is called Milanese? They strap using a loop and magnet, instead of the traditional buckle. They also come in different colors, and, they're cheaper!!

I know, doesn't help with smashed screen... I've read that others, with, for no reason, smashed screens, are offered discounts off of a new Fitbit. Maybe, if you contact them directly, you can get that, at least?

My screen has a crack also, but, was my fault, my wrist often ends up the same level as the linen closet door handle, as I leave my bedroom.

Thanks for the response! I'll probably just end up getting a new one, they're super cheap on ebay, maybe also a new set and bands too.
