    Sooo….for some reason plum is cheaper than black, and in black small is dearer than large. Their pricing is weird.

  • Ahan on 16/03/2015 - 10:01

    Damn, great price. my wife wanted a plum badly but I bought a black for her because it was only $115 on gumtree.

    • DEALLOVERMEL on 16/03/2015 - 12:22

      U mean you got FITBIT CHARGE HR SMALL-BLACK for $115???????????
      How……

      • Ahan on 16/03/2015 - 13:10
        +1

        Gumtree. I bought two (big and small) for $230 in Brisbane in the first week when it was released.

        The lady on Gumtree said his brother used two tech shops in Sydney and Melbourne and now since brother had to close the shop, she was helping him to get rid of all stock.

        I know nothing adds up but I went to that woman's house so it must be legit…

        • DEALLOVERMEL on 16/03/2015 - 13:35

          Lucky you! :)

        • whooah1979 on 16/03/2015 - 14:10

          are you sure they are authentic? charge hr clones are coming from cn for less than us$100.

        • Ahan on 16/03/2015 - 14:45

          @whooah1979: Yeah I figure it should be pretty easy to tell as you will need to pair and sync in order to upload data. Can the clones do that?

        • whooah1979 on 16/03/2015 - 14:59

          @Ahan:
          i don't know how they would clone these items.

          wearable fit gear is hot and cn are now cloning them like they do with hot mobiles. $115 each sound very cheap, even for 2nd hand items.

        • Ahan on 16/03/2015 - 15:13

          @whooah1979: Yeah fair enough. I however was more concerned about if it was stolen from a shop or something..

  • flickr on 16/03/2015 - 10:01

    For plum you will need to pre-order though. So maybe that is why it is cheaper. The small black and the large black price is indeed confusing. Probably they stock more on large size.

    • raj koothrappali on 16/03/2015 - 12:09

      Oh, It did not mention anything about the preorder on the first page.
      I ordered one and the emails do not mention 'preorder' on them as well.

  • pull the lever on 16/03/2015 - 10:12

    Good price for FitBit HR.
    Kinda wished I waited (got one from gumtree sealed, but had no receipt)

  • Quiexo on 16/03/2015 - 10:12

    For those of you who own this, how accurate is the heart rate measurement during exercise compared to the ones which uses a strap, ie a Polar? In the market for a new strap for my Polar FT-7, may get this instead if it is accurate enough…

    • rapoot6 on 16/03/2015 - 10:31
      +2

      The fitbit is nowhere as accurate, it can just keep up with sitting around and extended cardio but not bursts of activity.

    • ksinc on 16/03/2015 - 12:57
      +3

      Mine is good up to a mid-range heart rate but anything super intense it can be up to 20 BMP out from my old Polar FT4 HRM….. I've been wearing both to compare the fitbits accuracy and i'm less than impressed with the Charge HR! I wear it in the correct spot on my wrist as instructed to do so by fitbit.. Do noooooooot replace your Polar with this until fitbit sort out a way for it to read an intense workout accurately…. after my standard 1hr workour my fitbit reads over 100cal LESS than my polar, and yes both devices are set with accurate user information etc. Major let down. Basically just paid $180 for a Flex with a built in watch. I have the Polar H7 strap which has bluetooth so if your smartphone is nearby it can send data straight to that if you're a tech nerd fit person like me.

      • Quiexo on 16/03/2015 - 14:04

        Thanks for that! I'm actually looking to get the H7 before this deal came along, looks like I'll be sticking to my original plan…:)

    • lyon on 17/03/2015 - 09:32

      Am reviewing this at the moment. Seems that the reading is a little bit inaccurate. I know my heartbeat is around 95-ish idling (using a friend's Samsung phone, EA Sports Active 2 heartrate strap, and Jabra Pulse), but Fitbit Charge HR shows it as around 83-88. Not a big of a deal, I guess

      I was also awake twice last night but Fitbit Charge HR didn't catch that

      • whooah1979 on 18/03/2015 - 09:43

        hmmm. ~95 is a bit high or is the hr reading incorrect? i got the hr yesterday and after 24hr shows that my resting is 61bpm.

  • Ironman01 on 16/03/2015 - 10:18

    Thanks OP. Been looking around for the Charge HR for a while now. Great price!

  • darque on 16/03/2015 - 10:22

    Wow great price, thanks OP!

    Crazy price. Just picked Large HR from Officeworks for $137.61

  • rapoot6 on 16/03/2015 - 10:35
    +5

    I have one of these and must say that the heart rate tracking unless resting is quite inaccurate. I could sprint up a sizable hill but it'll show no different until maybe 5 minutes later and even then the increase is mild. Extended cardio works much better but even then it is around 10 counts lower than my polar. For resting heart rate it is awesome as you see how it changes with sleep, interaction with the opposite sex, etc

    • miscbrah on 16/03/2015 - 10:40

      what about weight lifting?

    • [Deactivated] on 16/03/2015 - 10:42
      +2

      I have a polar with chest band and do agree polar is very accurate comparing to this fitbit charge HR
      however, i still find the HR useful while I am lazy to wear chest band all the time for just short exercises

    • tohara on 16/03/2015 - 11:27
      +1

      mine seems accurate when i exercise. Where do you wear it on your wrist? You're suppose to wear it 4 fingers above your wristbone when exercising i believe

      • rapoot6 on 16/03/2015 - 14:11

        I wear it about there but it struggles to keep up when I do sprints or cycling (strangely)

  • EarlyBird on 16/03/2015 - 10:39

    Just bought it for $173 last Friday. Anyone knows if DSE provide price guarantee like the Good Guys?

    • snvl on 16/03/2015 - 10:45

      they don't. buy a new one and return it with the old invoice.

      • yjun355 on 16/03/2015 - 11:09

        They only accept if old one is unopened. I tried at harvey norman. They dont accept if opened. Anything that is wearable like headphone they dont accept.

        • bigsarg7 on 16/03/2015 - 11:20
          +2

          They meant return the new Fitbit that is purchased at the cheaper price, but with the old invoice with the higher amount. Not returning the used fitbit

        • yjun355 on 16/03/2015 - 11:30

          @bigsarg7: Oh. I guess that would work. Its a bit dodgy :). But I guess they dont keep track of serial number and only care about inventory.
          Anyone done that before? I paid $196 for my one in January. Do they refund opened from 2 months back?

      small is mainly for kids. I'm a 176cm 67kg male and i use the 5th smallest strap (out of 10)

      • whooah1979 on 16/03/2015 - 11:49

    Hey Guys!

    Check this…
    FITBIT CHARGE HR-SMALL BLACK $151.32
    http://www.dicksmith.com.au/fitbit-charge-hr-small-black-dsa…

    This was in my wishlist for a longtime and I was waiting for a decent price and here's the best I got it for $143.75 delivered next day at my place.

    I called Officeworks and asked them to beat the price ( as they hve mentioned to beat the price by 5% on their website).

    Enjoy!

    Cheers

    • lancermagi on 18/03/2015 - 12:13

      • DEALLOVERMEL on 19/03/2015 - 10:29

        I tried to attach a copy however seems this is text field only and not allowing me to attach snapshot of invoice.

        They told me that Dick Smith didn't have stock in stores. When I brought up that it was an online offer and I could order online, and their own policy states that they price match with online stores, they still refused. I figured I couldn't force them to sell me the fitbit and it wasn't worth arguing anymore so I just bought it online from DSE.

        • Luminary on 16/03/2015 - 17:23

          Did you show them the product link where it said "temporarily out of stock"? It doesn't show it's out of stock on the search results page.

        • jacklynhydejr on 16/03/2015 - 19:30

          I was anxiously waiting at the OfficeWorks counter for the pending argument. Luckily it never came! Sorry you didn't have any luck, but at least you go the DSE one :)

        • rini868 on 17/03/2015 - 15:12

          @taniiah: As soon as I asked about price matching the fitbit one of the more senior staff members jumped in and told me they couldn't do it and went through and searched the DSE site herself to show me. Apparently they had quite a few people throughout the morning try and they turned them away.

          @jacklynhydejr: Glad you were able to get one :)

    For those who want to get it from online but unable to because its out of stock. Here's the trick.. Go here: http://www.dicksmith.com.au/home-security/health-fitness/ped… - then add to cart from the overview page (do not go to the individual item main page). If you want to add 2, click add to cart twice.

    If you go to your cart, you'd notice that you aren't be able to choose click and collect or delivery in the cart page for some reason. So go back to the overview page (link I post above) and click "Check Store Stock". Pick the store that has the item and choose "Collect From Here". It should apply it to the item that was already added in your cart. You will be navigated to your cart, and from there process for checkout.

    Just got sms its ready for me to collect. So it should work!

      Thanks John,
      Earlier today I waited 15min for Office Works staff to locate the product. During that time it became "temporary out if stock" online, so they refused to price match.
      Thanks to your link I could find a DSE store to click n collect from in Melbourne.
