    Check out my Comparison of the Fitbi Versa 4 vs Apple Watch 8: th-cam.com/video/i4pusLYhHwQ/w-d-xo.html 🔥🔥

      I bought both. Fitbit Versa 4 is a nice watch but mediocre. Now have
      Apple 8 as my main watch. Charge 4 above my R. ankle for steps and mile counting.
      Charge 5 was so bad I may never buy another Fitbit.

    Thank you for addressing this issue. I personally suspect Google is slowly phasing out Fitbit watches in-favor of the Google Pixel watches coming soon. It seems like they're downgrading Fitbit watches on purpose-almost to the point where they're useless. After seeing what the Sense 2 and Versa 4 lacks, I'm sticking with my Fitbit Sense and I suggest everyone else to do the same.

    • @TheProductReviewer

      I was shocked as well as I saw the downgrade to the Fitbit Versa 4 and you should really stick to the older versions or to another brand

      Using Versa 2 and upgrading to Versa 4 after reviewing all Fitbit watches including sense 2 decided to order it in Amazon us on pre Black Friday deals 149💲. Solves my purpose like sleep score with a good battery life . As I use it 24/7 .Lot more better than pixel and Apple

    No google apps yet is a huge deal breaker yet - if I'm spending £200 on a watch I'm expecting it to at least come with everything that you'd usually see in a smartwatch like maps and google pay. If the price was less steep, I'd understand. Fitbit support also sucks they misunderstand every question. Not impressed for such a price tag.

    I just got this watch this week. Its been giving me one issue so far. Its not one to connect to my Amazon account when it comes to Alexa. When it comes to things that I like about it. The battery life is great and gps and having maps on it is great as well. I ended up coming from the Fitbit blaze.

      You might want to try a new charger. I thought my Sense way fried and even Fitbit did and provided a discount for a purchase. Only to find out after buying the Versa that it was the charger that had gone bad.

    • @ct8765
      @ct8765 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I purchased a new charger as soon as my Fitbit stopped charging in the hope that was the issue. It made no difference, my battery is shot. That’s a great design feature making it impossible to replace a dead battery and therefore forcing customers to purchase a new Fitbit altogether. Needless to say I’m done with Fitbit.

    • @dev3571
      @dev3571 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Probally for the best to go with another brand. If I had the extra cash to burn I would either go with the Garmin or the Galaxy but the later requires their brand of phone for certain features so that not happening.
