I have a fitbit flex and I love it. Gets me off the couch every day so I can at least hit my goal of 10k steps a day. Their customer service is great too. I had to get a replacement dongle and they sent it out asap with no questions asked.
Yeah. I said dongle.

Can't believe Nike decided to exit the market completely. I thought they were the frontrunner.

- band was cool but the concept was crap, iPhone exclusive and shit.. gamification doesn't work long term for real sportspplmekk

- they announced an android app but it never came, there are 3rd party apps but not worth it..mekk

was about to get this samsung gear fit, but then I was like 'nah', all of them, they're not quite it yet. They are crap smartwatches and crap sport watches. By now I would get some polar pulse watch or something, only if you really need it
- yeah, thought about that, but to drop that much cash on something that may or may not work is crazyflashbender
- I'll be all over version 3 thoughflashbender

I went with the withings pulse - the deciding factors were the pulse monitor and the fact that you don't wear it on your wrist, but you can if you want to.
So far so goo, but yesterday it didn't want to count steps until noon, so that was odd. Seems to be working fine again but the email to support has not been answered yet.
Second place was the misfit shine... still considering getting one of those and comparing the two.
