Make more trackers/watches available in size XL!

With all of the new styles of frackers Fitbit has released lately, it's disappointing to see that those of us who need a size XL for whatever reason have very limited options. None of the special edition styles are available in a bigger size, while our options for colors in the newer models are black, black...or black.

Please, Fitbit, make your newer models of trackers available in a size XL in more colors and styles!

Hello,



I had the same problem trying to find these, in the end went on Amazon USA site, bought two bands in black plus a great charger where the whole watch goes on the stand so no need to take apart for charging.
Hope this helps you, i think total price including packing came to £59.00

When I got my original Fitbit Charge it was available in purple in xl.  Now my options are black.  Makes me sad.

Hi everyone, thanks for sharing this suggestion. We're always striving to enhance Fitbit products and services, and we appreciate all of the input we receive from our customers. We do not currently have plans to release this feature, as we recently increased the dimensions of Fitbit ‘Large’ size bands, which we’ve found meets the needs of most customers. We understand that various companies have released third-party XL wristbands (but please be advised that any bands you find through online outlets, or otherwise, are not supported by Fitbit).

 

You can learn more about how Fitbit decides what suggestions get released in our FAQs. For now, we will leave this suggestion open for votes (and closed to comments) so that we can continue to track community demand over time. Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback with us and we will let you know if anything changes.

I currently have a Flex 2 with a extra large band and was considering getting a new tracker but none of the current tracker have bands either in the box or available for purchase. My wrist is about 10 or so inches in size.

The large band is to small. We need an XL wrist band as an offering even if it is kept seperately in the accessories section. I cannot purchase your product. Some of my friends as well. Men are larger than women especially ones that work out. You are loosing sales and I would suggest a significant amount. We will need to buy from a competitor.

Hi @RegG, thanks for explaining why you would like to have the option to make more trackers/watches available in size XL. This feature suggestion already exists, so I've moved it into a similar request.

I hope to see you around.

When I last owned a Fitbit, I was able to get an XL band. I went looking for a new tracker and realized that there is no longer an XL band available for any tracker or watch. This will likely mean that I buy another tracker or at least a 3rd party band (assuming I can find one). Please make XL bands again!

I can see the need for them, I don't exactly have small mitts myself. You can find third-party bands for much cheaper off of Amazon or eBay, but for warranty issues, I can see why people would be hesitant to do so.
