Hi all,

Just a quick feedback 2 years into my FitBit Surge:)

I bought my Fitbit Surge 2 years ago (7/2017) NIB off eBay. This was my first fitness tracker.

I LOVE my Surge, only sad thing is how outdated it is, as all things become:)

I trail run 5-6 miles twice weekly, do cardio kickboxing and kettlebell and weights 3 x per week and day hike or backpack most every weekend. I’m also a nurse.

My Surge has been my backbone and never failed me once❤️!

I recently upgraded to a Versa, died in 5 months:(......pulled my Surge out of storage, charged her up and she synched right up and is once again working beautifully and not missing a beat❤️

The charging port is a bit worn despite following care instructions, 3 chords and it’s a 5-20 min ordeal to get the chord propped up or tweaked proper to get the connection to stay for a charge...but that’s normal wear and tear for what I’ve put it through❤️!

For now I’m going Garmin as they have better battery life and better functions for all my activities, especially the hiking and backpacking.

I will continue to follow FitBit for future releases.

My beloved Surge will continue as my back up until the day the charging port gives out:)

Thank you FitBit for a wonderful watch, wish the newer models had the durability and dependability of my beloved Surge.
