And I think it looks a bit better Even though the screen is small and says fark all... However if your lifting etc the bigger the woser imo ... So Garmin still wins Then again Fitbit auto sleeps (which u can set the Garmin to do) and also has altitude levels where the Garmin doesn't .... Tough one Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89870-fit-bit-stuff/page/86/#findComment-1539441 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most day ill smash out 20000 step and also 1.5 to 2 hours gym a day so it would be better to see the results of the whole day not just when I have my phone on me.Makes things interesting running on a treadmill with a note 4 in the pocket. Get hit in the pen*s alot. Not good. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89870-fit-bit-stuff/page/86/#findComment-1539455 Share on other sites More sharing options...

In gym your phone could be 10m away and you'd still get your messages. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/89870-fit-bit-stuff/page/86/#findComment-1539480 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just steps, hrm, calories, distance climbed and sh*t like that. So fitbit might be the go for me then.
