Fantastic review, was literally sitting on the floor at target watching. Decided to go with the inspire 3 because of the price and simplicity and it honestly feels and looks premium on my wrist. It’s like perfect and it was on sale for 79$ at target. No brainer
best comparison between Inspire 3 and Luxe... And basically you just sold it, I was thinking upgrading from Inspire 2 but in the end I mostly use Fitbit app for food logging and passive activity tracking, so the slimmest/premium looking sensor is the best for me. Thanks.
1:50: great idea. Charging my band while i shower is definitely something I'll be doing now. 😅. 6:00 I love watching your reviews. Very clear, concise and you've got great energy Thank you
Just got my new fitbit 3 days ago I have to say so far it’s been working well love the features. Personally I like the inspires because that’s what I am used to to my first fitbit was the inspire her so I decided to stick what I was used to. At the store I bought it the price was 129$. But I got it for 98$ because it was on sale one dollar cheaper then the price I paid for the inspire hr 3 or 4 years ago. Overall I think I got it for a pretty good deal. Great video btw very well explained well done!
Went to ER with covid and I was wearing luxe. Hooked up to heart monitor/ekg machine. Was running a pulse rate of around 120 most of the night. Luxe wasnt even close to being accurate.EKG said 120 and fitbit reading was 74. Was wayyyy off the whole night. 02 sensor was somewhat more accurate holding steady at 95 while ekg was fluctuating 94-100. Supposedly the apple watch is more accurate.
My first Fitbit watch was a Versa 2. Actually it wasn't bad, but it was a bit big on my tiny wrist. So I ordered a Fitbit Luxe. It was okay for a few months, then it started the periods in between charging became shorter and shorter. I then decided to go with the Charge 5. Unfortunately, I hadn't paid attention to the fact that the things I was mostly looking for were part of the Premium package. There is no way I will be adding over $100. yearly to this already expensive watch. At the beginning I got the same info on my sleeping pattern as I did with the Versa and Luxe. Now I am getting nothing on "Sleep" and I've only had my watch for a few months. I think next time I'll pay a little more and try an Apple Watch. I'm losing confidence in these Fitbit watches and I really hate that they are now adding things in the Premium package. Fitbit is getting a little greedy.
My Charge 2 finally went kaput on me. I'm not super interested in the Charge 5 display screen -- but definitely want to continue researching before deciding. Thank you for comparing all 3!
SKIP CHARGE 5. It's junk, probably rushed to market too quickly. Constantly looses connection, suffers from freeze screen and NO HOME BUTTON . The resets like screen and button on charge cable (they knew of the problem before hand) are only temporary fixes. They come back. I boxed mine and went back to charge 4. Might go to inspire 4 for a upgrade.
Inspire 3 is clearly better than the luxe. $30 cheaper, double the battery life, weighs less, same features while also being a year newer. Only trade-off is it's barely bigger in size to accommodate for a bigger battery.
Getting luxe since it’s currently cheaper than inspire 3! Thanks! I am coming from a whoop so I am going to miss that thorough analysis of my daily sleep recovery.
@@FitnessWithFrost ended up getting the charge 5 since the previous post and have been putting it through the wringer. So far so good in spite of some people claiming short life span of the device.
I have the 5 the gps is a joke the built in kills the battery too fast but even connected to a phone it randomly drops and does not reconnect I have been cycling the phone is literally inches from the 5 and it still loses bluetooth connection and drops gps I heard its because bluetooth and gps antennas are too close. I contacted fitbit showed them all the dropped activities they told me they are aware and to be patient!!!! There is no software fix if the 2 antennas interfere with eachother. I had the inspire 2 and never had this problem I couldnt read the screen in the sun so I thought I would upgrade but thats a jike I hike a lot and need to keep track of miles and the 5 cant do it or I cant rely on it actually working even on dynamic you think it would switch if it loses the phone but it doesnt its a serious problem if you track outside activity
I definitely have heard people with this issue and it is upsetting. I didn't see it in my testing, but at the end of the day this is just a bad design choice
My first 2 were "Charge" and my 3rd is an Inspire. The first two included FLOORS along with STEPS. There is nothing on the Inspire that keeps track of FLOORS! I live in the high Sierra where I walk a lot up and down the hills, and climbing the mountain. Which of these include FLOORS? Thanks :)
@@FitnessWithFrost Ok. Thanks so much for getting back to me. I really liked it! My cousin lives in a 9 story condo so she loves to see how many floors she does a week!
Does inspire 3 have calorie burnt tracker.. like you have set a certain goal to burn your calories and it tells you how much you burned? Pls reply. Thank you!
I got a Fitbit Luxe about 18 months ago. After a year it needed charging more often. Now it's every night as the charging takes much longer. Also for some reason, it is now 3 days ahead. Lately, I've been wearing it for the time ... and that's it. I don't know if I should just toss it and get a new Fitbit (not a Luxe) or is it possible to change the battery?
Hola. Tengo una Fitbit Charge 5 y estoy algo decepcionado de ella, por qué? Bueno no tiene una App para control de música. Su bandera saludable es la App ECG, pero en México no está autorizado el uso, así como la App de Relax, esta última viene como una opción para instalarse pero al igual que la otra, no esta autorizado su uso en México. Esta muy chida la banda, trabaja bien, la pila dura una semana, pero con todo esto una mejor opción son las Xiaomi, desde la Band 6, la Band 7 y la 7 Pro que cuentan con una App de Respiración que es la que sería Relax en la Fitbit Charge 5, a parte de que son más baratos. Saludos
There are two types of fitbit..trackers and smartwatch..these 3 in this video are trackers..what you want is fitbit smartwatch which has other models like sense and versa
do they have the same heart rate accuracy? and do they all go back to the clock every 2 minutes? that's what happens with my inspire 3, i select the heart rate mode over and over and over and it keeps going back to the clock.. which one is the easiest to read in the sun? i feel like inspire 3 is not very easy to read in the sun even at the brightest settings
@@FitnessWithFrost i select the heart rate monitor over and over and if i keep checking my watch every 30 seconds it stays on, but if i stop checking for about 2-3 minutes it goes back to the clock
@@FitnessWithFrost no i was selecting the heart rate monitor on the bottom of the clock, i tried the workout but it didn't tell the HR during, it only told the HR at the end
It does send like there has been connection issues previously,but as long as it's running iOS 14 or higher you should be good. You can always connect Fitbit to confirm this
This is such a good review thanks for jumping into the differences! It was very clear too. I'm torn between the Charge and the Luxe now. So FitBit only keeps record for 7 days and to see the whole history, I'll have to pay for the premium services?
i owned charge 2,3,4,5. they are will not last 18 months due to screen. Get the the inspire 3. 9.2 real days of battery life. built in gps is not a must for me( unnecessary gimmick )
Apple Watch only… Apple dosent let any watches apart from their Apple watches to acess the quick replies stuff because apple want people to buy the Apple Watch…

you have to pay premium to get sleep tracking?
My Charge 2 finally went kaput on me. I'm not super interested in the Charge 5 display screen -- but definitely want to continue researching before deciding. Thank you for comparing all 3!
I'm glad I could help. If you want to raid a could months the 6 would be coming out
@@FitnessWithFrost I decided on the Luxe! I like the smaller screen size.
I wish you the best of luck with it. Let me know how you like it

Sorry to hear you had such a bad time with yours. I didn't experience any of this myself
Amazing review mate 🔥
Thank you! Glad I could help
Great review!! I really needed this type of crash course on the product. Coming from Apple Watch I was a bit lost on their offers!!
Your review was very helpful. Thank you for getting down to it.
I'm glad I could help!

Does the inspire 3 have gps without having my phone near by? Also what features are lost when premium is disabled?
Great and Very nicely explained! Thanks for the video!
Thank you for the kind words send I'm glad I could help. Good luck on your fitness journey!
Getting luxe since it’s currently cheaper than inspire 3! Thanks! I am coming from a whoop so I am going to miss that thorough analysis of my daily sleep recovery.
I think you will still be happy with it
Is it just me or at 1:30 you say the best battery length is from the luxe but I think you meant to say inspire 3
Very good review . Thanks for your hard work.
I'm glad I could help
Great concise and to the important points. I think I’ll go for the charge 5. My charge 4 just broke and I’m freaking out. My ocd is through the roof!
Ocd??
I never responded here. I hope everything is going well

Is there any difference for swim tacking? Do any of them accept input for lap length?
I was gonna get the charge 5 but I’ve heard so many complaints about it. I just got the luxe instead.
Good luck with your new band!
Bing, Bang, Boom... excellent review!
Great comparison. Thanks for the information. I like the inspire but do not like the idea of paying for premium either. Big turn off.
Yeah the premium is just a tough pill to swallow

Sadly it looks like Fitbit removed the tracking of floors. My only assumption is that they weren't that accurate to begin with
@@FitnessWithFrost Ok. Thanks so much for getting back to me. I really liked it! My cousin lives in a 9 story condo so she loves to see how many floors she does a week!
Yeah I know a lot of people were pretty disappointed by that. Maybe if the technology gets a little bit better
Very helpful. Thank you!!
Thanks for the review sir! Happy to see a familiar face
Very helpful video. Thank you!

Thank you! Cyber monday has great deals on these today!

If we are getting Luxe and inspire 3 at the same price through discounts (actually Luxe a little cheaper), which one should we go with?
he said he would favor the Luxe
If you need the extra battery life go with the Inspire. If you would like better build quality and better looking go with the Luxe
It is very good detailed video, but luxe has Bluetooth 4.0 and inspire 3 has 5.1 , is it make difference?
In the end you won't really end up noticing the differences between those two Bluetooth standards. Hope that helps
heart beat measurments? the same or different?
I'm sorry what is your question?
@@FitnessWithFrost Is the accuracy of all three of them the same, or is one better. I think that is what they are asking.
Yeah they have pretty much the same accuratey across the board
Does inspire 3 have calorie burnt tracker.. like you have set a certain goal to burn your calories and it tells you how much you burned? Pls reply. Thank you!
It does have a total calories burned tracker and you can change your goals in the app. Hopefully that was helpful
@@FitnessWithFrost we can see the calories burned in the watch itself tho right?
Yes you can, but only with certain watch faces
@@FitnessWithFrost which watch face should i use?
Do you have the watch on you? You will see the functionality of every watch face before you use it
Can't these things just be used as a wach without prescription?
Are all of them water resistant or water proof ?
I got a Fitbit Luxe about 18 months ago. After a year it needed charging more often. Now it's every night as the charging takes much longer. Also for some reason, it is now 3 days ahead. Lately, I've been wearing it for the time ... and that's it.
I don't know if I should just toss it and get a new Fitbit (not a Luxe) or is it possible to change the battery?
You can factory reset it, it may help to extend the battery life at least temporarily
Thank you for that insite
Very useful. Thank you.

Is we reply for notifications in ios for watsapp in inspire 3
I am sorry, but I don't think I totally understand your question
No I don't think so
WhatsApp is a third party messaging app, I think he’s asking “can we reply to the messages on WhatsApp using the Fitbit?”…

Yeah the heart rate is just an app. Make sure to start a regular workout and swipe through the screens you should see heart rate on one of them
Can you connect inspire 3 to iPad
It does send like there has been connection issues previously,but as long as it's running iOS 14 or higher you should be good. You can always connect Fitbit to confirm this
My alarm on inspire 3 sometimes doesn’t go off
This is such a good review thanks for jumping into the differences! It was very clear too. I'm torn between the Charge and the Luxe now.
So FitBit only keeps record for 7 days and to see the whole history, I'll have to pay for the premium services?
Thank you! I'm glad I could help.
Yeah it only keeps track for 7 days at a time if you don't pay for the premium after the 6 month trial.

Stay away from Fitbit. I have problems with a watch, filled in form to Fitbit support. No response from Fitbit after 4 weeks....
I need a band with quick notification replies in iOS under 150 dollars
Apple Watch only…
Apple dosent let any watches apart from their Apple watches to acess the quick replies stuff because apple want people to buy the Apple Watch…
Yeah I tried to Google it myself, but you can only use an Apple watch if you want to be able to reply on your wrist
Bro bro bro try bello 2 body fat scanner!!!! Should be good!
Might need to get my hands on that!

Wirecutter from the New York Times ranks the Inspire 3 as it's number 1 pick.
