Rounding out the upgrades, the Charge 3 is more water resistant than its predecessor (up to 50 meters). One disappointment is that Fitbit still uses a proprietary charger, so you'll have to shell out for a new one if you lose or break the one in the box. Ultimately, battery life will depend on your usage, but I've been wearing it for nearly a week and still have an impressive 35 percent battery left. On the plus side, the Charge 3 packs a bigger battery, with an estimated seven days of use on a single charge. This is an issue we've seen with other OLED touch screens, like on the Garmin Vivosmart 4. It sometimes failed to register swipes, or registered them incorrectly, bringing up my apps instead of my daily feed. In testing, I found the screen's touch sensitivity to be slightly less than perfect. A short press on the left button brings you back to the previous screen, while a long press brings up a shortcut menu to adjust screen and notification settings. Swipe down to scroll through your notifications. Swipe left and you can scroll through the app menu, which shows two apps, stacked vertically, per screen. From the main screen, you can swipe up to get a view of your daily stats. The larger display makes for a change in interface that feels a little like navigating around a smartwatch. There's a sizable bezel below the display where the Fitbit logo is, but it's not quite as noticeable as it is on the Fitbit Ionic or Versa. This makes receiving notifications from your phone a much better experience, as there's enough space to read a whole text message instead of just a part of it. The monochrome OLED touch screen is bigger, with an active area of 0.7 by 0.2 inches (HW), and the resolution is higher (Fitbit doesn't share exact specs, but it looks noticeably sharper).

With the Charge 3, Fitbit hasn't changed the design of the Charge 2 so much as tweaked it. That makes it our Editors' Choice, and one of the top wearables for keeping tabs on your health and activity. Thanks to a sharper screen, longer battery life, new sensors, a swim-safe build, and more informative phone notifications, the Charge 3 features just enough changes to remain the best everyday fitness tracker for casual users. With the $149.95 Charge 3, Fitbit takes a good thing and makes it even better. The Fitbit Charge 2 has been one of our most highly recommended fitness trackers for two years now.
