I have been using the same Surge for two years. Over time, it has progressively crumbled. I had to replace the strap. It won't sync or record activities. The battery dies within 24 hours. It still tracks steps and calories, as long as I keep it charged up, but, of course, when I'm charging it up, I'm not wearing it, so it doesn't track those steps. Not that Dashboard picks them up anyway. Right now, it's just a watch that counts steps. I was hoping for more.

 

Oh, and please don't tell me about all the trouble shooting tricks. Been there, tried them all. It's just dying. Slowly. I'm considering going back to my Polar chest strap and wrist watch.

Not sure how to answer you @USHistoryMan, you haven't asked a question yet. In what way would you like help?

I think he's saying he expected a higher quality product for $250+. That's a sentiment that many share......me included. That's why I returned mine and picked 2 up for $69.99 each on clearance......a price much more realistic for what you're getting 😋
