Upgrade From FitBit Versa 4
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My husband needed a replacement for his FitBit Versa 4. I read they sold the company so wanted something that I felt he could rely on. He was apprehensive at first but find the ease of use and all the features fun.

A great smartwatch for a senior
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this watch after my Pixel Watch 2 stopped reading my heart rate after 14 months. Two items that I highlight are standouts. First the battery lasts at least 10 days and this is with daily cardio workouts and 3 time/week strength workouts. The second is the software stability. It is stable and doesn't change settings on its own. I recommend this watch.

great upgrade for me
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I moved from a Fitbit after my third started leaking water even though it is for swimming. So far, after the first summer in the pool swimming laps, it has done great. The batter life is way better than other smart watches that have to be charged daily. I go about 4-5 days between charging. The screen is bright and the notifications are working like I want.

Great fitness watch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Happy with making the switch from my Apple Watch. One of the main reasons is the battery life is so much better and I enjoy being able to track my sleep and body battery. Do miss some of the features from my Apple Watch like having a mic or responding to text but overall not a major loss for me.

Worst smart/fitness watch I've ever had
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had Fitbit, Garmin, and Samsung (Tizen and WearOS). This was the worst of them all. Likes: nice screen, long battery life. Dislikes: sleep tracker never worked (even on the replacement unit). Several times it stopped recording my 2+ mile walks, got home to "0.2 mile walk with 85 steps recorded." Buttons are awkward to press. User interface is not consistent and is not intuitive. Proprietary charging cable! Screen protectors are hard to find and were poor quality. I returned it. And kudos to Best Buy, their patient geek squad, and their knowledgeable sales staff for making this experience relatively painless!
