Fitbit has released an official statement on customers experiencing skin irritation due to wearing the Fitbit Force.
Fitbit has hired independent labs and medical experts to conduct a thorough investigation. While it is stated that only about 1.7% of the Fitbit Force users experience this issue, Fitbit is conducting a voluntary recall and offering full refund for full retail price.
You can read about Fitbit CEO James Park’s letter here and access the Fitbit Force dedicated refund site here.
Fitbit Force is no longer on sale at fitbit.com. nor Amazon. You can read about Gadfit’s review on the Fitbit Force here.
I’m just curious if Fitbit is still going to release the caller id feature for Fitbit Force now that CEO James Park has announced that the company is working on the next generation tracker and they will announce news about it soon.
