I posted this in the Iconic forum, but immediately realized it might be better in the Sense forum. 

 

I've used fitbit devices for years.   I am an older guy that likes to get out doors and can benefit from anything that helps monitor my health, but I am not a Super Athlete.  

 

In 2016, I upgraded to a top of the line "Surge" just before climbing/hiking Quandary Peak, CO.   (Elevation 14,265')   It served me well for a few years.

 

In 2020, I upgraded to a fitbit Iconic right before a mountain biking trip.   I've logged many hikes and bicycle rides, and I have used it to monitor my heart, sleep, and more.   It is durable!  It has taken some real hits and dings on rocky trails and when working in the yard.  Unfortunately, I have never really liked the look of the Iconic and it is not that comfortable to me.    

 

I am upgrading to a fitbit Sense.  I am concerned about the durability of this fitbit.  

 

When do you wear your fitbit Sense?  What activities?   

 

When do you leave it behind?
