Fitbit Versa 2 review: The subscription smartwatch

The Fitbit Versa 2 is in a strange place. It delivers multi-day battery life, and priced at $200 it offers almost any feature a Google Wear OS smartwatch might. But it bumps right up against pricing on the Apple Watch Series 3. Where it should set...

Affordable ; Multi-day battery life ; Native sleep tracking ; On-device music storage ; Intuitive interface

Fitbit Versa 2 review: A good, but unreliable fitness watch

On paper, the Fitbit Versa 2 is a compelling upgrade over its predecessor. It features a bigger, better display, useful Alexa integration and refined software. It still lasts days longer than Samsung and Wear OS watches and looks pretty, to boot. But...

Attractive and comfortable design ; Alexa integration feels useful ; Accurate sleep-tracking ; Long-lasting battery without Always On Display

Finicky connectivity ; Unintuitive OS

This smartwatch is faster than the original Fitbit Versa (and it's Alexa-compatible), but the Versa 2 still lacks GPS.

The Fitbit Versa 2 battery lasts for days and days. There's a clear, easy-to-understand breakdown of your fitness and sleep metrics in the Fitbit app. You get a wide selection of watch faces. It's faster and more responsive than the first watch. The...

Alexa integration is not as fleshed out as it could be. Connected GPS means you have to take your phone with you when doing outdoor workouts.

The Versa 2 is a great hybrid of a fitness tracker and a smartwatch, but lacks built-in GPS which may be a deal-breaker for runners. It's still one of the best wearables you can buy for under $200.

Fitbit Versa 2

The Fitbit Versa 2 takes everything we like about the original smartwatch and adds an always-on AMOLED display, a microphone for Amazon Alexa, and Fitbit Pay.

Attractive AMOLED screen with always-on option. Long battery life. Lots of useful apps and fitness features. Fitbit Pay. Amazon Alexa.

Screen isn't quite as bright as the original model. Alexa responses are text only.

Bottom Line: The Fitbit Versa 2 takes everything we like about the original smartwatch and adds an always-on AMOLED display, a microphone for Amazon Alexa, and Fitbit Pay.

Fitbit Versa 2 review: smart fitness tracker, dumb smartwatch

Fitbit's latest smartwatch is still mostly just a fitness tracker

Comfortable, lightweight design ; Week-long battery life ; Screen is bright and easy to see outdoors ; Great fitness and sleep-tracking features ; Voice replies are handy for Android users

Changing straps is still a huge chore, despite the quick-release pins ; Always-on display is too simple and not customizable enough ; Alexa integration is clumsy and largely pointless ; Smartwatch productivity features are lacking

The Versa 2 is Fitbit’s latest smartwatch, and while it’s better than its predecessors, it still struggles with being a top-tier smartwatch.

One month with the Fitbit Versa 2: Comfortable, affordable, and motivating | ZDNet

I've now worn the Fitbit Versa 2 as my primary wearable for a month and it served as a solid motivational tool, but had limited use as a smartwatch. It's the best Fitbit available today, but that may not be enough with older Apple Watch models at the...

Fitbit Versa 2 review: Buy it for its outstanding sleep and health tracking, not for its limited smartwatch functionality Review | ZDNet

Fitbit saw solid success with last year's Versa, but stumbled a bit with the Versa Lite. The Versa 2 improves on the original in every area and is worth consideration at $200 if you are looking for a 24/7 activity tracker in a watch form factor.

Gorgeous high quality design ; Always-on display option ; Bright and clear new AMOLED display ; Lightweight and comfortable for 24/7 wear ; Detailed sleep and heart rate data

No support for offline Spotify music ; No integration with Apple Health or Google Fit ; Bands can be tough to replace

Fitbit Versa 2 review

The Fitbit Versa 2 is the company's best fitness smartwatch for the money yet, but it's missing some features.

Attractive design ; Good battery life ; Customized training programs (via subscription) ; Sleep tracking

Lacks on-board GPS ; Alexa works inconsistently

, which both have GPS, onboard music storage and contactless payments. One feature that could set the Versa 2 apart is Fitbit's new subscription service, but it will take a lot to convince me to spend $80 more per year. Still, the Versa 2 is a very...

Fitbit Versa 2 review

The Alexa-powered Fitbit Versa 2 takes personalization of your health tracking to the next level.

Alexa onboard ; Bright AMOLED always-on optional screen ; Decent battery life

On the small side ; No GPS onboard

The Fitbit Versa 2 upgrades the screen brightness, battery life, and adds Alexa voice controls to the health tracker to improve on the original. But a lack of GPS and focus on sleep tracking keeps this a health focused watch.
