Fitbit Versa 3 : Frustratingly close to perfection, and now cheaper for Prime Day
The Fitbit Versa 3 finally gives us built-in GPS, but sabotages itself with a dubious new design choice- Great look
- Built-in GPS
- Lovely screen
- Strong battery life
- The button replacement is poor
- GPS tracking could be stronger
- Limited additional apps
Fitbit Versa 3 review: A smartwatch that over delivers on health features
The Versa 3 is a cheaper alternative to the Fitbit Sense with temperature and SpO2 tracking plus all the fitness features you'd expect. The Fitbit Versa 3 is Fitbit's best smartwatch for most people. With an always-on display, built-in GPS, blood oxygen and temperature tracking during sleep, and a battery that lasts six days, the Versa 3 holds its own against some of its pricier competitors like the Apple Watch SE and even the Fitbit Sense. While you don't get the stress tracker and FDA-cleared electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG) like the Sense, the rest of the Versa 3's smartwatch and fitness features are similar. As an added bonus, the Versa 3 costs $100 less than the Sense.- Up to six days' battery life
- Bright, always-on AMOLED display
- Advanced sleep tracking
- Onboard GPS
- Mic and speaker for text dictation
- Relies heavily on mobile app
- Slow to sync
- Health metrics are hard to find
- Notification replies are Android-only

The smart features packed into this fitness-focused wearable make this watch a worthy choice for the price

Fitbit Versa 3 Pink/Gold FB511GLPK review
The Fitbit Versa 3 is a modest upgrade from the Fitbit Versa 2, at least today. Down the road with slated smartphone integration updates like taking calls from the wrist or Google Assistant, it’ll become a more advanced unit.
Fitbit Versa 3 Pink/Gold FB511GLPK review
With integrated GPS and some design tweaks, the Fitbit Versa 3 is an excellent wearable. Like its predecessor, though, it’s more a fitness tracker than a smartwatch, with very limited productivity apps on offer.- Beautiful display
- Built-in GPS
- Lightweight and comfortable
- Poorly designed side button
- Requires Fitbit Premium subscription to unlock advanced features
- No offline Spotify support
Fitbit Versa 3 Pink/Gold FB511GLPK review
Whilst the Fitbit will track a large number of key parameters for you, it is (understandably) reliant on the user to input metrics such as fluid intake and food. This is something Lady A is notoriously bad at, but with the Fitbit on hand now, it is something she is getting better at.
Fitbit Versa 3 Pink/Gold FB511GLPK review
Fitbit started the whole wearable craze with its original fitness tracker more than a decade ago. With the Fitbit Versa 3, it’s now been in the smartwatch market long enough to warrant serious consideration.- Built-in GPS
- 24/7 heart rate tracking
- Sleep monitoring
- Lacking some features
- like fall detection
