    Hi looking into getting a Fitbit. It’s between a charge 2 and a charge 3. Is the charge 3 worth the extra money. I do a bit of swimming and it’s pushing towards the 3 but apparently it doesn’t track it properly

    I have a charge 2 and a few friends have a charge 3. Most of us take it off for swimming in the pool as we don't want the chlorine to damage it. Fitbit have a good customer service, they might be able to assist?

    Its good to know they have good customer service. Have your friends had any issue with the 3?

    No issues that I'm aware off. I'm the only one of my group that had an issue when I had my strap fall off my charge 2 a few weeks back and got a new one sent out foc three days later after contacting them.

    Fitbit Charge 2, Fitbit Charge 3 and Fitbit Flex 2 are considered good if you are going to use it while swimming. Personally, I would prefer the Fitbit Charge 3.

    Charge 2 doesn’t track swimming, Mine doesn’t anyways.

    I'm pretty sure it's not waterproof either, whereas the Charge 3 is!
