I've been using my Fitbit Flex for a couple of months now, and I like it. I haven't lost it, like my Fitbit One and it hasn't been recalled, like the Fitbit Force. Sure it's merely functional but that's all I need.
One thing I particularly like is the weekly email of my data, which I've worked up into some graphs.
But are these graphs (and hence the underlying data) useful? Not in all cases, I fear.
I don't do anything clever in terms of entering my eating habits into the Fitbit website so that means the graph of total calories burnt is data once removed as it's reversed engineered from my activity; something effectively covered by the other two graphs.
Also, it's pretty clear to see that total distance travelled (in km) and total steps are measuring the same thing.
Still, I do find it interesting that my both are on an upwards curve. Now if only there was a simple way of extracting sleep data...
