Fitbit Charge HR review: a heart-rate tracker that's skipped a beat

Great for telling general activity, but this fitness tracker doesn't provide any meaningful, useful data from measuring heart rate

San Francisco-based Fitbit has released seven fitness trackers since the company launched in 2007, but the Charge HR is the first to include a heart-rate monitor that claims to help users track their cardiovascular health.

After the failure of its Force wristband - which was recalled after it caused rashes on users' wrists - the company needs a home run to maintain its top spot in fitness tracking.

Pros: light, water resistant, easy to read screen, altimeter, constant heart rate monitor

Cons: four-day battery life, chunky, no meaningful analysis of heart rate data
