What are the features of Fitbit?

For this guide to be as readable as possible, we will not repeat the features common to each product of the brand. To see the differences in features, click on the image below.

Fitbit Versa: a smart health connected watch for everyday life

The Fitbit Versa is the latest addition to the brand's range of smart health connected sensors. It follows the Ionic, which is 100 € more expensive with only difference the integration of GPS. To choose between the two, discover our Fitbit Versa vs. Fitbit Ionic duel. The Fitbit Versa is a very complete watch. It allows you to follow the physical activity like all the other sensors of the brand, is resistant to water, embeds the contactless payment, the music (native or Deezer) can be read directly from the watch with a Bluetooth headset.

His sleep monitoring is the most advanced with the monitoring of sleep phases (light, paradoxical and deep), and intelligent alarm. The same level of monitoring is offered on Charge 2, Alta HR and Ionic. Applications are a plus, even if the Fitbit catalog is not yet very well supplied.

Fitbit Ionic, the most upscale with a (very) sporty design

The Ionic does just like the Versa by adding the GPS. If you are looking for a complete device dedicated to the sport, this is the model that you need. It is in direct competition with Garmin Vivoactive 3, which offers more sport features, but a less qualitative screen.

The difference of 100 € between Versa and Ionic is difficult to justify by the mere presence of GPS. If Fitbit manages to integrate the GPS with a model with the look of the Versa, the brand will certainly have taken a big step to establish itself in the market of smart health connected watches.

Fitbit Charge 2: the most advanced smart health connected bracelet in the range

The Fitbit Charge 2 has long been the best Fitbit of the range. It allows to follow the same data as the Versa, but with a screen much smaller and less beautiful than his little sister. If features like coaching, apps, music or contactless payments do not interest you, it may be a better choice than the Versa. The 40 € of difference on the public price are weak, and the Charge 2 can be found in strong reduction at a lot of resellers.

Fitbit Flex 2: the most discreet

Fitbit Flex 2 at the best price

Fitbit was largely inspired by its (former) competitor Jawbone on the design of the Flex 2, which is minimalist. The wide range of accessories makes it possible to use it as a sports bracelet, a fashion accessory and even jewelry, thanks to the partnership with Tory Burch. If you like swimming, this is the only bracelet to offer swim monitoring in the range (only Versa and Ionic can too).

It's the only Fitbit product without a display, and it's ideal for people just wanting to be physically active without having to wear a product that's too conspicuous. The Flex 2 is also very light, you will forget it quickly.

Fitbit Alta and Alta HR: the most design

The difference between the two models is the presence of a heart sensor on the HR. When Fitbit released the Alta, the brand insisted on the design, with a more feminine bracelet than the Charge 2. It is less destined to the sport than the latter as it does not allow the multisport tracking or the follow-up of the race sessions. foot via the phone's GPS.

If we had to compare the Charge 2 and the Alta, one is a sport bracelet, the other a lifestyle bracelet.

Autonomy: 7 days

Fitbit Zip: Why is it still on sale?

It's one of Fitbit's very first sensors. Its functionality and appearance are outdated, but it still remains in the lineup. Its only strength compared to all other Fitbit activity sensors is its autonomy, the Zip can take 4 to 6 months in conventional use. However the price seems to us today much too high for the functionalities that it proposes.
