So I'm having the same problem I had with my first surge! Wristband coming apart; for the price of the werarable I can get the Apple Watch. What advice do you have of one vs. the other? Not considering any other Fitbit because only surge has the GPS capability.
Blaze and Charge 2 can connect with your phone to use it's GPS. They also have replaceable bands. Apple doesn't connect with 3rd party apps for the most part.
Thanks I had the Garmin forerunner 10 and didn't care very much for their synch system, had to connect to my pc to do, which is what I love about my surge, synch automatically via Bluetooth does Garmin has Bluetooth synch?
Yes mine is connected to my phone via Bluetooth, it syncs periodically and when I open the Garmin connect app on my phone. It took me a while to get used to the differences in Garmin connect compared to fitbit and I can't compare my steps to my fitbit friends anymore as I have no way of importing them to fitbit but I now have different challenges in the Garmin community . I am happy with my Garmin although I think any device can have issues some seem to have more than others. Good luck with whatever you choose!
