While its feature set isn’t quite on par with that of its bigger brother the Ionic, the Fitbit Versa feels like the same watch but with a lighter and friendlier design and a much lower price point.

As fans of the larger, more expensive Ionic, we appreciate that for the Versa Fitbit hasn’t cut back many features to allow for the smaller watch size and much-cheaper price-tag. The lack of built-in GPS affects only the determined phone-free runner, and most of us run with our smartphone anyway so the Versa can use the GPS on the phone. The new Female Health Tracking functions are helpful to 50% of the population, and it will be interesting to see what insights these bring to the Versa user and health professionals in general. While it’s not the most accomplished smartwatch it remains one of the best activity trackers. While new apps are being added all the time, Fitbit’s place in the smartwatch arena is its superior fitness, health and activity tracking features, and the Versa looks like it will win over more people to the Fitbit smartwatch world.

La Versa est probablement notre Fitbit préféré car elle allie beau design et facilité d’utilisation. En prime, elle peut être utilisée à la piscine. Que demander de plus ? Un GPS probablement. Cela dit, comme la montre se synchronise à celui de votre smartphone, ce n’est pas très dérangeant. La Versa est plus un traqueur d’activités qu’une smartwatch à proprement parlé. En effet, le nombre d’applications disponible sur ce modèle est encore limité par rapport à d’autres accessoires comme l’Apple Watch ou même certains WearOS. Si vous recherchez un accessoire pour suivre votre activité physique et améliorer votre santé au quotidien, la Versa vous plaira. Si vous recherchez une montre connectée pour télécharger des apps, lire les informations ou accédez à vos emails, alors vous risquez de la trouver limitée.
