Tech Review: Fitbit Charge 2
Couch potatoes beware as a new activity tracker dares you to run for the hills. Like most trackers, Fitbit Charge 2 records every step you take, every move you make, distance travelled, calories burned, and sleep patterns.
This wrist accessory has a bigger screen than its predecessor, Charge HR, and a tap-sensitive display with a variety of sport modes: running, walking, hiking, biking, workouts. The device combines its sensors with exercise data and profile information, to give you a heart rate score.

The Relax feature, similar to Breathe in the new Apple Watch, guides you through breathing exercises. Furthermore, this magical bracelet draws GPS data from your phone and alerts you to incoming phone calls.
