I got a Band 2 last December, and it lasted 9 months. Without ever taking it to the gym. The strap came apart, the display cracked and the battery stopped working. Microsoft wouldn't replace it under warranty, so I now have a FitBit Charge 2 waiting for me under the Christmas tree.

I loved the Band 2, but for better overall functionality, you probably need to go with the Gear Fit. Plus, the quality issues surrounding the Band 2 are well documented, and will most likely show up with your Band 2 if you bought one.
