– Sleep score is finally being released out of beta to the masses – Removed right side buttons, leaving only a single button (like the Versa Lite) In any case, we’ll get right into things, and there’s no better way to do so than a quick and efficient bulleted list of what’s new in Versa 2 compared to the previous Versa 1 I’ve reviewed. Most of the photos in this review I’ve used an extra accessory strap, because I’m highly bored of taking photos of black and grey watches these days. What’s New in Versa 2:Ībove is the box for the stock $199 Fitbit Versa 2. With that, let’s get into all the new bits.

If you’re looking for the quick run-down of all the new features, then look no further than the play button below. Who would have thought, a watch that you can actually see the display? This includes the new built-in Amazon Alexa functionality, new Spotify support, and perhaps most important: The always-on display! Yup, Fitbit has returned to their roots with a display that’s always showing you the time. I’ve got my hands on the new Versa 2, err…actually, it’s on my wrist – but either way, I’ve been giving the new features a whirl. Atop all that, they’ve also announced a new budget-friendly smart weight scale at a mere $49 – by far the least expensive mainstream brand on the market. However, with the new Fitbit Versa 2, they’ve also announced a clear shift in strategy away from “episodic device sales ”, as CEO James Park put it, towards a premium services revenue model. Like clock-work, Fitbit has released a new smartwatch for the fall and upcoming holiday buying season.
