Fitbit Versa Lite Review: Too basic for the price

Fitbit somehow managed to squeeze $40 of tradeoffs out of the Versa to bring us the Versa Lite. It brings over most of my favorite features from the more expensive watch, but might be too “lite” even for the first-time smartwatch buyers the company is targeting.

On sale, the original Versa goes down to about 165 USD, I haven't seen any retail company put the Lite on sale below its MSRP of 150 USD. Just get the Versa. It works much better and functions as a smartwatch more too as well as an advance fitness tracker.

It’s on sale right now for Mother’s Day though! I got it for $99.95 +tax and honestly you can’t beat that. I would never pay over $100 to buy a watch and as a first time smart watch buyer (other than the very simple OG Fitbit Charge HR tracker (not smart watch) that I got back in the day) I’m genuinely excited at all of the features this watch will have! I’m not that into tech so the basic-ness of this watch was actually what was MOST appealing to me! + the look as I find the Fitbit ionic fairly unattractive and too masculine-looking. I ordered this watch in mulberry (a pinky-purple). The color I got was actually $60 off as opposed to the other colors only being $30 off for some reason. I’m soooo excited! But it is informative to watch your pros, cons, and comparisons! I’m excited to wear it as just that alone will motivate me!!!

Probably. The ionic is already around the price point of the regular versa. I think it would make sense to drop the price on the versa and bring this down as well. I thought this thing had an altimeter. So, it's basically an inspire HR with a color screen and better notifications. I thought it was closer to a charger 3, but I guess not.

I'll stick to my Galaxy Watch 46mm over to any fitbit, very smooth and responsive albiet with light to moderate use i can get 5-6 days fairly easily. Even at that price point of fitbit lite, the ticwatch S/E 2 as a smartwatch performs far better, not many essential corners cut like wifi compared to it's $250 pro model

Pretty bad review not for the watch but from the reviewer, not picking on silly things like "for about a second" I mean come on what do you want light speed. There is a reason why is called versa lite!. Actual customer reviews pretty much everywhere I've seen is 4* out 5*. Go amazon and review the super cheap $10 watches 🙄
