I have had this item fora week and I love it - i have only ever used a fit bit device as a watch and find it very much worth the money. I am having paring issues with the connection of the bluetooth but this is ikely to be my phone not the watch.

If its predecessor was the wearable that showed that Fitbit had the chops to make it in the smartwatch market, this is the one that you'll actually probably want to buy.

Great form-factor; Solid fitness tracking

Limited app functionality; No GPS

The Fitbit Versa is far from a perfect smartwatch. It doesn't have the apps of an Apple of Google watch or the fitness chops of a Garmin, and there are a few parts of the software that need some spit and polish.

A speedy interface and subdued look make it perfect for health nuts averse to the fitness a e s t h e t i c

Feels dinky, especially compared to the polish of the Apple Watch; Music control is a real hassle

The Versa is an undeniably appealing device, although its lack of GPS and paucity of apps compared to other smartwatches may hold some back from committing to it wholeheartedly.
