After having my Fitbit One since early 2013, I finally upgraded to a Charge 4 just this past weekend.  Since 2013, I've always synced my Fitbit One with the MyFitnessPal app. When using my One, on really inactive days/work days, I may be "granted" an extra 140ish calories by MyFitnessPal.  Now that I have the Charge 4, on days with the same low level of activity, I will be "granted" an extra 500-600 calories. Has anyone else had an experience like this?  It makes absolutely no sense to me.  Is my Charge 4 way off on its calculations, or as the One is quite old in the fitness tracker game, would it simply have less accurate technology?  Thanks!

The Fitbit One without knowing anything about how intense you are working out will really never have an accurate colorie measurement, @HoundHugger
