Fair enough, I wouldn’t have called it a review anyway at this stage. There are no other restrictions on what I or other media can write, except that we can’t call it a review (since the product isn’t done yet). My usual in-depth review will be released on/about September 25th, which is the date Fitbit ‘allows’ anything with the word ‘review’ (per media embargo). That’s not happening till mid-late September.

While the hardware is final on these units, the software isn’t. I suppose technically that’s tripling down.Įither way, I have all the new stuff (save the scale) and have been using these loaner units for about a week now across all sorts of sports. That’s all in addition to a revamped optical heart rate sensor, refreshed GPS platform, new coaching services, and a boatload of smaller features and plenty of accessories.Īnd because they were in the doubling down mode, they also launched new wireless Bluetooth headphones that can dual connect to the watch and your phone concurrently, as well as a new Fitbit Aria WiFi scale (the Aria 2). Today Fitbit launched their first legit smartwatch with 3rd party apps, wireless payments, and music support onboard.
