The new Fitbit Charge HR is a new wearable band that can measure your heart rate. And it works pretty well, as long as you don't push yourself into the red zone too often.

For its price, the best all-around fitness band

The Fitbit Charge HR still lacks in-depth coaching, but its combination of features, size and price are unmatched...and if you find it on sale you should buy it.

With a heart rate sensor on board can the Fitbit Charge HR plug the gap between casual tracker and serious sports watch?

Reasonably priced for an all-day activity tracker with a continuous heart rate monitor, the Fitbit Charge HR looks sleek on the wrist. A slim profile make it truly wearable for people of all sizes. While it's not ideal for serious runners or exercise enthusiasts, it's a great fitness monitor powered by the ever-excellent Fitbit website and apps, which remain the best you'll find.

Fitbit Charge HR Review: This Is The One You Want

Fitbit is such a tease. In October, the company announced three new fitness trackers just in time for the holiday gift-giving season—but decided not to ship two of them till 2015. Well, having now spent time with the Charge, Charge HR, and Surge, we believe the Charge HR is the one you want.
