Why should you be treated "with respect" for returning something that you've used but since found cheaper? Nobody forced you to buy it in the first place. Ever heard of responsibility?

Really wanted to get one of these but only up to 5-days battery, and most people on the Fitbit forum are only getting 2-3 days real use before needing to charge, Fitbit answer is to disable a lot of the features which makes it kind of pointless.
Can anyone who has one please confirm more in the battery life?

I had one for about a month and usually got around 4-5 days with it, which was a big improvement over my day battery Microsoft Band 2.
The only issue I had with it was massively overestimating my steps - by massively I mean a good 15-20% higher step count than the MB2 (which I know is accurate as I've actually watched it count my steps as I'm walking) on the same day, being worn on the same wrist.
But even with the overcounting, for this price it's a decent tracker with some good app integrations.

Is the box unopened or bought online?
Hopefully the new owners Sainsburys will treat you with respect not distain for return an item.

Had the Xiaomi mi band s it was awesome, better than the western competitors, battery life over one month too. Sleep tracking more accurate in my opinion and fully automated.

I looked at the Amazon price last night and it was around £74.99, I think they have dropped the price to match Currys. Personally I prefer going into a store to buy electrical goods, I have bad luck with them (four smartwatches in six months), so find it a lot easier to bring back to the store.

Yes I have heard of responsibility thank you and there should be 'No Quibble' returns by Argos as they make out its 'No Quibble' its only when you read the fine print and get interogated by the staff then Manager and treated with disdain.
Thats why I shop mainly at JLP and amazon they treat you with respect.
Irresponsible not to bring it to folks attention thank you

Had a Xiaomi band, it simply stopped charging after 5-months, cost more to send it back than what it was worth, but a good way to test at an entry level.

I bought a Flex 1 as a Christmas gift for £39.99, would you say it's worth the extra features taking it back and getting this for £20 more?

Tempted by this purely for the fact it's waterproof and the swim tracker. Used a Fitbit charge HR for a week or so earlier this yr but found it a little big and the hr function didn't work well in gym so revert to my Polar H7. Think I'll be more likely to stick with this as it looks small enough to forget your wearing it.

Seems really expensive seeing how it doesn't track heart rate. The Sony SWR10 is a fraction of the cost of these and seems to have all the same functions and maybe a few more (like media controls... which you will probably never use, but still).
