after months of researching for a good watch after my fitbit versa lite broke i was told that the fitbit sense was on god tier level so i spent $300+ on it and now have had it for 3 months and its the worst thing ive bought.
let me add in the fact that i bought this for help keeping track of my heart as i have a heart/nervous system conditio- POTS a disability that effect my heart and my blood pressure with no control and i also dont always feel my heart rate when it goes too fast and without warning i can pass out and cause myself to be in danger. i bought this watch bc everywhere i looked it said that the Sense was WAY better than an Apple watch and i wouldnt have to deal with unnecessary things like apps and notif etc that i wouldve had if i had bought the Apple (which is still true).
i can tell you i regret my decision. in one instance recently i was not feeling well but my sense was saying my HR was in normalish range (90-120bpm) but i knew it wasnt right so i checked on my Pulse Ox and it was 210bpm (just standing up no exercise)...my watch never recorded it.
this watch will be accurate one day then 40+ bpm off the next, bc of my misplaced trust in this watch i have: given myself a blackout from smashing it while falling from passing out, have come close to passing out twice while DRIVING, and genuinely dont know what is going on with my heart that i may need to know about. this is also $300+ i forked out as a broke college student that i domt know if ill get back bc i thought i was doing something that would help my disability.
ive posted abt this before i believe in March and have yet to even get a response from a support team. I dont know if i'll ever by from Fitbit again!
