| I want to purchase a fitbit. Do you like the wrist style or clip-on better? Any other feedback or recommendations would be helpful. Thanks |

I have the clip on style.
Cons about the wrist: I don't like things on my wrists all the time, bulky, don't always match what I'm wearing. Cons about clip on: you have to be careful it doesn't unclip and fall off. I check mine frequently during the day. I have an older version -- the ultra -- and I think they've improved it with the one. I like the display on the clip on ones more. Being able to see my progress so far. Although if the bracelet syncs with your phone, you could check it that way? |

I have the clip on kind (a fitbit zip) and I like it because I can wear it without anyone seeing it. The wrist kind is usually going to show. Even if I'm wearing a dress with no room to clip it on, I can clip it inside my bra and wear it all day without it being visible.
I've never had any problems with it unclipping--it actually takes some effort to her it clipped on and unclipped. |
| I have a flex and I love it - I can shower with it on which is a plus. One downside is that it doesn't keep track of the stairs you do, which would be interesting to know. |

I have the One (clip-on) and love it. I prefer not advertising that I am wearing it. On the other hand, if you don't get dressed up a lot, the bracelet is probably fine.
I believe the ones on your waist are more accurate at counting steps. If you are carrying something (not swinging your arms) the bracelets are less accurate. |

I prefer the clip, although the Nike bracelets are popular with my male colleagues. These are also men who wear those stupid rubber LiveStrong style bracelets with suits - so not sure you want their fashion advice.
I'm a female who wears suits most days and I have the small round Fitbit after so lost my One. If it doesn't blend into my outfit, I put it on my bra strap. |

Op Here
Thank you for your helpful input. I'm going to get a clip-on one. |
| How many different kinds of Fitbit's are there? I'm interested in getting a clip on kind but haven't researched them. |
There are 3. Two that are clip on, one that is a wrist band. http://www.fitbit.com/store |
