The Fitbit Versa is a compact, lightweight smartwatch and fitness tracker with an improved interface for easier fitness stat readouts. It's water-resistant to 50 meters, and works with iOS and Android. Many of the apps and watch faces are useful and fun
Its battery life falls short of other Fitbit fitness trackers. The apps and watch faces aren't always easy to load. Music transfer to the watch is complicated and limited. The pricier tap-to-pay model is only available outside the US. There's no on-board
The Fitbit Versa is the best fusion of smartwatch and general fitness tracker under $200, if you can live with its limitations...
More agreeable design than the Ionic, Packed with features, The price is right
Fitbit Pay not on all devices, Heart rate inconsistencies, No built-in GPS
Were it not for the lack of GPS, the Versa would be the smartwatch the Ionic should have been. It looks better and yet does most of the same things for two thirds of the price. For Android users, who can't use the Apple Watch, the Versa is especially appe...

While its features set isn't quite on par with that of the Ionic, the Fitbit Versa feels very much the same watch in a different, lighter and friendlier design. And it's also worth noting it's not supposed to be replacing the Ionic, it'll be on offer alon...

Slightly erratic HR tracking and recording, Connected GPS rather than built-in GPS
The Versa is shaping up to be a fine all-round fitness tracker, perhaps the best Fitbit you can buy. And its smartwatch powers look much more polished than the Ionic's early showings. If you're a Fitbit veteran with a fondness for its smartphone app, or...

Compact design,Fitbit ecosystem and app,Lots of straps and colour choices
Battery life isn't amazing,No GPS limitations,Bulky battery charging
As we mentioned above, the lack of GPS sets out the Fitbit Versa as a device that might not appeal to those who need precise location information. If you're a runner, for example, you'll be better served by the Ionic or a different sports platform.But wha...
Fitbit wants to widen its smartwatch customer base, and on first glance the Versa looks like a step in the right direction. The chunky and inelegant Ionic was unlikely to appeal to all, so the more attractive design of the Versa will certainly help in thi...
