I have the Jawbone. My wife bought us each one on Prime Day for $29. Not bad. We have android phones and the ap (UP) works well. I like the sleep pattern monitoring and as others have said, it's a motivator to see that you're short on your steps for the day. You can also track weight loss and monitor caloric intake.

I do find that it is more accurate than Samsung's fitness ap or My Fitness Pal for counting steps....plus I don't want my cell phone in my pocket all day while I'm walking.

I haven't actually tried a fit bit but my impression is that the Jaw Bone may be a bit bulkier? Somebody else may be able to confirm.
