Many users appreciate its step tracking and bicycling time monitoring features, as well as its stylish design, waterproof construction, and convenient notification display. However, some users have expressed concerns regarding its durability, connectivity issues, potential for skin irritation, and occasional defects.
If you are considering an apple watch you should strongly consider this. If your reason for getting an apple watch (or any smart watch) is really to track fitness, then get one of these. I did, fr the following reasons: 1. Lighter and thinner. I don't know about you but a lot of the full blown smart watches are super think and seem not ready for prime time. It's not a watch, it's a brick on your wrist. 2. Focus - this just does fitness stuff - although you can actually install other apps (I installed the Hue lighting control and now I'm Dick tracy). 3. Existing ecosystem - Fitbit has been around for a long time, and your friends and family might already be a part of it. I was invited to a "Workweek hustle" by a client and because of that I was motivated to get my steps in. Battery - Battery life is supposed to be like 3-4 days, but mine gets about 2 days. That doesn't matter because it can literally charge fully while I'm in the shower, it charges super-fast. Faces - I know they can all pretty much do this, but fitbit has a LOT of faces. I chose one I could read without the use of a microscope. And it was free. It's also comfortable to wear.

I'm a clock face developer, so I have all three Fitbit smart watches -- the Ionic, the Versa, and now the Versa Lite. The performance is just as good in the Versa Lite as it is with the Versa. The Versa has three buttons (one on the left, two on the right) while the Versa Lite only has the one on the left so It's not really meant to run complex apps -- just exercise functionality. There are more differences, but instead of wasting your time here, you can click this to see them: https://www.tomsguide.com/us/fitbit-versa-lite-vs-fitbit-versa,review-6247.html The biggest pet peeve I have is the fact that as of now, Fitbit really only lets you have one device paired with your phone, and therefore on your account. If you want to switch between devices, you need to essentially re-activate each one, each time you want to switch. Once you get the hang of how to do it, it probably takes less than 5 minutes (really about 2 if nothing goes wrong, and you have an easy WiFi password to enter) but in this day and age, it seems like a silly thing to have to jump through two minutes of hoops just to swap your watch. If I could give 4.5 stars, I would for that reason alone, but if it's your only smart watch, it's a great option for a basic level of fitness tracking.

I bought my wife one of these and in the process of setting hers up I decided I needed my own. I will say I am an apple guy. Multiple iPads & iPhones but the cost of the Apple Watch seems a bit much. I figured I'd start with this and I couldn't be happier. I admit I'll probably step up to the Apple Watch in the future but as a first capable smart watch this can't be beat. The texts, and info to the watch from my iPhone is great. Despite not being an apple product it pairs well.
