Is the new Fitbit Surge waterproof

The Fitbit Surge. Much bigger on the wrist than most of the other models. It's pretty thick. So, is it waterproof? Hmm, this question has a grey area. Fitbit claim this model is sweat proof, splash proof and rain resistant, but not to be worn when swimming or in the shower.

Sounds fair enough. At least they are honest about it. These limitations won't put that many people off. The Surge still has many excellent features. Some of those are included below.
