On my first night of using this Fitbit I was woken up in the middle of a dream so I thought “this is a great chance to see if the sleep tracker can accurately see when I’m in REM sleep” Surprisingly it showed that I had just entered REM sleep, so that instilled a lot of confidence in me on the accuracy of this device
I got the inspire 3 for Christmas and I love it so far. The battery life is nuts and it’s accurate compared to the Apple Watch that my mom let me try for a bit. I love how light it is on my wrist. Only thing is the watch faces are ugly except for a select few and they don’t have a hockey workout mode for when I want to track my calories well on the ice. Other then that I love this thing so much. You get what you pay for (especially when you get it on sale)
@@JPOGame I love to use it to track my sleep as I have trouble sleeping. I mean you do have to look at the features and see if anything seems interesting. But I went for it because it was my first watch and I wanted to see how it was. I love it so far and I love all the extra details it gives me on my sleep
Agree. Things like the mi band aren't even worth mentioning since they collect wildly inaccurate data in nearly every area. They're basically gimmicks at that point.
It was unreadable to me until I found out that you can increase the brightness to the max. This has way more features than I really wanted. All I really care about are steps and heart rate.
I just got mine and I love it. Definitely there's other bands like the Mi 7 ], but there's no band lighter than a Fitbit Inspire 3. I can't feel that I'm wearing it.
I wish that the different clock faces were shown and discussed. I’m curious what are the different watch faces for this and whether the stats heavy clock face is still there.
The watch faces aren't great. There's 21, over half look pretty much the same. And no stats heavy watch face or weather/temp. Most faces lose either the date or any of the fitness tracking. A let down from my past watch, and I love the look of the mi bands and all the info they show at a glance. But the inspire 3 does a lot more accurate tracking.
I'm thinking about getting this because I've had Myocarditis, and I'm always worried I'm having a heart attack. The heart rate, heart beat detection, and blood oxygen detection will help me calm down knowing I'm okay
@Issac thorpe you know what, I’ll probably buy the inspire 3. Just because it’s slimmer. I wanted an oura ring at first because it’s so minimalistic, but due to the fact that is nos that accurate that’s why I’m going with the inspire 3 👍🏼
I have a Samsung 4 watch and an Inspire 2, and I actually LOVE my fitbit WAY more! Since using it, I've lost 20 pounds! Sorry husband for buying The Samsung for me!😬
Maybe I’m missing something but what does an apple watch do that this doesn’t do? I think for $100 this seems like a great deal. The Apple Watch is like what $600 that’s crazy compared to this!
Mike, In the heart rate tracking test you shown a graph that overlayed the fitbit vs chest tracker rates by seconds. Would you please let me know how you do that? I had tried the Fitbit exporter but it only appears to export data by the day, definitely not useful. Second question: Is there a tracker size device, not smart watch size, that now includes EKG tracking that you were recommend? thx
My grandpa wants a smartwatch, but he is not good with tech at all so I wonder if it’s possible to turn off/remove some of the settings on the watch to make it cleaner and easier to understand? He’s 93 and wants to be more active Thanks in advance
Hallo, thank you for your video. My smartphone doesn't support the Fitbit app, do you know if it's possible to control it også from a pc with Windows 10?
Does it have calorie burnt tracker.. like you have set a certain goal to burn your calories and it tells you how much you burned? Pls reply. Thank you!
This is sold by google, and yet it will not connect with my Samsung flip 4 Android phone, I even tried to set it up in the parking lot of the place that I bought it before I got to the gym, it didn't want to connect I brought it back inside to the store they tried to connect it didn't work, opened a new box with the new inspire 3, same BS, read some reviews saying the Android 13 update will not allow certain phones to connect, is anybody else having this issue with an Android phone or a flip 4?
@@JPOGame I got a free subscription with the purchase of my Fitbit for a year. I had to sign up for it. Now it tells me my oxygen saturation, heart rate variability and quality of my sleep, etc.
Hello, what about the notifications if the phone is in silent mode (only vibration enabled)? Because I read that the notifications don't work in that mode... Thank you.
Everything these days need subscription. In future subscription maybe we will be back at stone ages looking at sticks stuck in the mud for the time. For the calendar, we will need to carve out the Mayan calendar in the house
I've bought the Luxe last year around the year it came out, around Black Friday where Fitbit also discounted it to around $99.95. Now, it's around $79.95 because the Inspire 3 came out and maybe they are thinking of pushing out another new product (Luxe 2). Luxe compared to Inspire 3, functionally, they are identical because they have similar specifications. I don't think that even justifies the new released verison (Inspire 3) because there's nothing new to offer even features-wise. Accuracy is probably the same as all of their product lines which is not great at all. Fitbit being owned by Google has a lot of work to do with app integration with other apps which probably will end up Dead on Arrival like most Google Projects. Though that is not a complete letdown, it just shows how much effort Google is doing on their end even despite it been a few years since their acquisition. Google Fit isn't really any good compared to Fitbit's own app though if they synced each other and were more integrated, it can cause less headaches and more consistency. Trying to use Strava's heart rate sensor doesn't work cause the Fitbit sensor isn't allowed on their app so that an example of what they can work on to integrate their sensor/features onto other apps. I have not used the subscription yet because I do not feel like it's necessary to use it and I do not like the subscription model that forces you to pay for your data that you generate. It seems like they just keep releasing these new products and only offer slight improvements to specifications which doesn't really justify the price increase at all. It's just to FOMO people getting the newest thing and you will do plenty fine with the previous generation at least. The most important thing about these fitness band is not the product itself, but how you are using the product for your goals. If you don't have any clear cut goals in utilizing most of the features, it's just a watch at that point.
Does the device auto detect my exercise, cycling/walking, or do I have to start tracking? Can this be started in an easy way? And: Is the sleep analysis and workout trackint sufficient without paying for premium? Thanks a lot!
Unfortunately the inspire 2 bands do not fit the inspire 3. They are slightly different, not alot but just enough that you can get the inspire 2 band in the inspire 3, but it slips out. I went from the 2 to the 3, and am now in that boat, because I can't wear the silicon bands.
The values measured during the day can be checked in app, once it synchronizes with the Inspire 3. In app, there are graphs, plots, hints, scores etc. From time to time U turn on the Bluetooth and need to sync the data. This app is good as it explains the data and helps to understand how to improve your scores.
1:20: I hate the pins. Sucks that they kept that idea. Living the yellow/orangw colour tho 9:10: you're so organized and detailed. 10:20; who wants to keep paying for the same product. 🙄 Thanks for this.

Just bought one of these cuz theyre on sale now. Debating if I wanna return it though. This was helpful. Might return it and buy it again next May when my subscription is up so I can get the 6 months free. I think when this first came out you got a year for free. I forgot to cancel my subscription ihad from buying the inspire 2 this year so I got charged so the biggest draw to keep it would be getting the free subscription, which I won't be eligible for again until next May.

Was looking forward for your review since the launch, thank you, Mike!
I appreciate your appreciation for my videos
The absolute most honest review you’ll find…. Need to look no further this guy is the REAL deal. Ty sir
Amazing review! You said everything I needed. Now I just need to decide between this one and the Charge 5 😅

Just ordered mine 👍
I was excited for the Fitbit after Google aquired it! Thank you very much!
wait.. isnt that orange.. or am i blind or have been taught wrongly 😐
That’s def orange
This should have a senate hearing.
I'd describe it as mustard yellow. But it definitely is a fringe case
It’s definitely yellow, lovely dark yellow…my favourite colour
I own it it’s def more on the orange side
Thanks for the review and info about it. I ordered mine a week ago and look forward to using it.
Thank you for the excellent video. I would like to point out though that the Inspire 3 does claim to use your phones GPS if you pair them.
Definitely looking at this one for sure

I'm considering having this as an addition to my galaxy watch. Just to save some battery and do most of the health measuring on that
all this what wristband to get research makes me wanna go running with no phone, watch or headphones. is this thing a better product than Galaxy Fit 2
I’d watch this guy review anything! Amazing!!
My grandpa wants a smartwatch, but he is not good with tech at all so I wonder if it’s possible to turn off/remove some of the settings on the watch to make it cleaner and easier to understand? He’s 93 and wants to be more active

Nice review, thanks. Does the watch support responding to Multifactor Authentication Apps like Google Authenticator right from the watch?
Hallo, thank you for your video. My smartphone doesn't support the Fitbit app, do you know if it's possible to control it også from a pc with Windows 10?
Definitely worth it on Black Friday
2:52 can I have a link to the clip?
I would like to know if you earn badges like the Fitbit charge 2. I love earning badges.
Kind of looks orange, not yellow but hey, it's happy! 😊
I am a huge fan of the realax feature!
Would people generally say this is a good basic watch for monitoring heart rates, steps etc?
is there a way to keep it on the heart monitor mode? i selected that mode 500 times in a row and it keeps going back to the clock every 2 minutes
Just tap on the clockface till it shows the heart icon below the time. It will show the heart rate continuously.
Does it have calorie burnt tracker.. like you have set a certain goal to burn your calories and it tells you how much you burned? Pls reply. Thank you!
Seem the difference between this and inspire 2 is battery life and improvement in screen quality.
At minute 2:36 there is a small little circle at the bottom of the screen. Is that a camera or some kind of sensor?
It's a sensor.
This is sold by google, and yet it will not connect with my Samsung flip 4 Android phone, I even tried to set it up in the parking lot of the place that I bought it before I got to the gym, it didn't want to connect I brought it back inside to the store they tried to connect it didn't work, opened a new box with the new inspire 3, same BS, read some reviews saying the Android 13 update will not allow certain phones to connect, is anybody else having this issue with an Android phone or a flip 4?
No affiliate link on Amazon? I'm surprisedd

Did you find out?
@@JPOGame I got a free subscription with the purchase of my Fitbit for a year. I had to sign up for it. Now it tells me my oxygen saturation, heart rate variability and quality of my sleep, etc.

Hello, what about the notifications if the phone is in silent mode (only vibration enabled)? Because I read that the notifications don't work in that mode... Thank you.

Does it have an auto pause feature when running or walking?
Yes it does have that feature. I noticed it on my 1st jog with it and love it.
Is the smart wake up function premium?
Great review, - will this inspire device 3 use the clip accessories
thanks for such a detailed review
will it tell your body temp on the band or only on app? thanks
