I think I got about 3.5 years out of it, not too bad, but you're right that 
it's a shame that a device needs to be recycled just because the battry no 
longer holds a charge.

I liked that it was on my hip as it seemed more actuate for step counting. I 
remember trying out a wrist mounted one around that time and got about 200 
steps just for typing an email.

I wanted to buy another one but by then they had discontinued that model in 
favour of the new wrist mounted models.

That being said, my Apple watch seems to be pretty accurate for a wrist 
mounted step counter.
