Title: Make sure you have the latest version of the fitbit app
Review: When I first got this, it would not maintain sync. I updated the firmware on the watch, tried doing a factory reset twice, uninstalled/reinstalled the fitbit app twice, ensured that the app wasn't allowed to go to sleep when in the background... nothing worked. It would work for a few minutes, then when I tried to command Alexa, it would say connection lost. I decided to contact support, and they informed me that my app was outdated. Come to find out, version 4.04 of the bitbit app is too old, and will not work. The latest version, 4.06.7 had not been released for my phone yet, as is typical ridiculous play store behavior. Google... are you listening? When a developer releases an update, you shall IMMEDIATELY make it available to EVERY device! I manually downloaded the apk and installed it, and everything has been working great since. Alexa follows my direct orders immediately, phone calls come through, texts come through, and I can sync with ease.Overall, I suppose this is an improvement over the Versa 2. Screen is a little bigger, but the notification vibrations don't seem to be as forceful, even when set to strong.This uses google wallet instead of google pay as the Versa 2 did, so my AmEx will not work for contactless payment.Phone call feature is nice, seems to work OK. I can hear them, they can hear me. You can only answer calls, you can't make them. The $50 brand x watch I ordered to replace this one before I got the sync figured out was able to do that. It could also control my camera and music player, neither of which is possible on the Versa 4.Google maps is nice if you walk in unfamiliar areas. I'll probably never need it, but it's nice.Battery life seems to be improved over the Versa 2, but mine was 2 years old so I'm sure the battery had gradually decreased it's charge capacity. I used it for several days, and he battery was still at 55%.Skin temperature sensor will one day be nice when it can sync with a smart thermostat and automatically adjust the temperature as needed. But for now, it's just a novelty and has no purpose. Yes, I know my skin is hot. I woke up in a puddle of sweat. Yup, I'm freezing, so my skin is cold.o2 saturation is nice if you have any relevant health problems.If you want to take full advantage of the watch, get the free "Overview" clock face by Chris Blyth. It gives you current and average heart rate, battery percentage, fully customizable date format, allows for a larger clock that shows seconds, and you can have weather, and 6 other health stats displayed on the main screen, all at once. I have steps, distance, calories burned, active zone minutes, floors, and BMI/BMR. It all fits, and is easy to read. Vast improvement over the default face, which shows no useful information. I had th is face on my versa 2, and loved it. So glad it's available for the 4.Bottom line, it's a good watch. There are cheaper brand x ones out there, but none of them have NFC payment, and not all of them have Alexa. And, you get what you pay for. fit & finish feels cheap, the screens get washed out in the sun, finicky alexa integration and so on. Best to pony up and get a refined product. Be sure to update your fitbit app. Their customer support said the latest version should be released within a week, but I circumvented the beurocracy and downloaded it manually. Why wait?

Title: Really Very Good
Review: Use it constantly, worth every penny.The charge lasts over a week and it gives a low battery warning at 35%, meaning it NEVER does unexpectedly in the middle of the day.It's definitely waterproof (wear it in the pool or shower all you want).Sometimes I have some trouble getting the GPS to work but strangely only for biking?Loved it enough that I also bought my husband one and he used even more than I do.

Title: It works well but not in extreme cold conditions.
Review: This is my second purchase. It works well with my IPhone. I can measure my steps, heart rates and keep tracking my sleep scores well. I also can receive all messages before grabbing the phone. A little bit of splash water okay. The first one didn’t do well with extreme cold weather, -25c. I wore it in the snow storm and noticed later that the function had been changed especially the shorter battery. I give it another try and overall is great.

Title: Pretty much love
Review: I had a Samsung Active 2 watch that finally died on me. I thought that watch was pretty awesome, but hated that it had to be charged every other day, so I decided I was going to get something different.. and then I got thiswatch.. I get about 11 days with gps. Sooo nice!The Versa 4 has me pretty much in love.All of the things that this watch can do is just amazing. I got it to monitor health, track my steps, and routes.. it does so much more. It's missing a few things, but I can live without them.Talking on it was cool for a minute, kinda felt like inspector gadget, but I'd rather just use my phone.. lol.I really wish it was linked to my alarms on my phone.. I got used to being able to hit snooze from my watch. The alarm on my Versa is a very dull vibration that I can't even feel.. kinda useless for waking me up. I think the steps are off a little bit, but aren't they all?!I miss having YouTube Music linked, so I could control what my earbuds played.. but it's ok. All of the perks that this watch offer really outweigh the 2 or 3 things it doesn't do.The band is super soft, and doesn't irritate my skin at all, which had me concerned, because I have sensitive skin, and seen that some people had issues.It was super easy to add the Fitbit app onto my Samsung phone and get everything set up.I decided to try the premium for the free 6 months, and I'm pretty sure I'll keep it.. I like all the extra stats that are available, and $79 a year isn't bad. I mean, I pay $13.99 a month for no commercials on YouTube, so.. there's that.When you get everything all set up through your Google account you're offered a 2 year warranty on your watch for $29.99 that covers all sorts of stuff.. enter in the serial number and it's done.Great color, stays synched, nice big screen that I can see even in the brightest light, and it does everything it's supposed to.great price.. I got it on Prime Day.

Title: Not even on year
Review: Update… after talking with customer service thorough Fitbit… I’m sending my watch to them for a replacement. Customer service was awesome.I purchased this watch December of 2023 and as of August 2024 it quit working. I’ve been buying Fitbit products for over 8 years and upgrade about every 2 and so bummed this one didn’t last. I’m not sure what to get now.

Title: Handy
Review: Bought this for my husband, but I've been using it. I love, love, love it! I am now lost without it. The look is also great!I love the quality of it. I can wear it while swimming. It is waterproof. You do need to put it on "swimming" mode so it will waterproof itself.It charges quickly and lasts for a good week. I like how it keeps track of my sleep, my heart rate, my steps, all the performance you're looking for in a "watch" and then some. The screen is easy to read. I love the calm feature.It's also easy to set up. Just know, you need to purchase. It's a great piece. You'll love it!! Get it!

Review: Absolutely loved the watch! Fitbit pay works perfectly for public transportation and most merchant stores. Tracks sleep and steps well too so far. No offline music support was not an issue for me as I don't listen to music usually. Have not tried answering phone calls. Also realised no notifications on my watch for messages but will try to set it again. Overall, very worth it as I got Versa 4 at same price as Versa 3.
