Anyone here tried both? Any comments on the accuracy, usefulness for fitness and sleep tracking?

Just an FYI, the Fitbit Charge and Fitbit Charge HR have design flaws or production defects(could be limited to certain build dates I am not sure, Fitbit doesn't seem to know either). The bands on the Charge and Charge HR start to fall apart in less than 6 months(some as few as 2) of normal usage. Just google Fitbit Charge falling apart. The issue is extremely common.

Look at MS band instead. It's got it's share of problems, but the battery life is very good, it's one of the better activity trackers out there, and it does offline GPS without needing a phone hooked to it.
