You’ve still got a 40mm case that’s made from aluminium and a strap that comes in small or large size options, with both strap sizes included in the box. Putting it side-by-side with the first Sense and it’s not a marked change in how this watch feels to wear. It just meant that maybe, thanks to an injection of Fitbit DNA, Wear OS fitness trackers might become marginally less clunky and annoying to use.The Sense 2 doesn’t look too dissimilar to the original Sense, though Fitbit says it’s thinner and lighter.

At least Fitbit offers six months of Fitbit Premium for free with the purchase of any of its trackers.Įven though the Apple Watch continues to dominate the smartwatch market, I'm still fond of the attractiveness and simplicity of Fitbit's designs. As with the Inspire 3, the Daily Readiness score, sleep profiles, and advanced stress management metrics are accessible with a Fitbit Premium subscription. There are infinity band options as well-certainly a take on the Apple Solo Loop. The Versa and Sense lines include accessories designed by the Black-owned fashion brand Brother Vellies. A Check-In button prompts you to decompress with stress management tools like guided breathing.īoth watches are also much lighter and thinner than previous iterations. Rather than spot-testing, the Sense 2 now continuously monitors your electrodermal activity, along with your heart rate, heart rate variability, and skin temperature, to help you identify your stress triggers. When you measured stress on the first Sense, you held your hand on the watch’s metal bezel. However, the Sense 2 now has a new Body Response sensor.

The Versa 4 is optimized more for working out, with built-in GPS and 40 different exercise modes.

When will fitbit sense 2 be released
