So if you find this review useful, simply hit up some of the links at the end of the post. In the case of the Fitbit Versa 3, I went out and purchased it myself. In this review I’ll dive through all the new features, what works well (and doesn’t), and help you decide whether or not this is the right unit for you. And probably more meaningful to some are the additional phone and text capabilities slated to come this winter, as well as Google Assistant integration later this year. The Versa 3 adds built-in GPS compared to the previous Versa units, plus a handful of health tracking features/metrics (that are also now rolling out to previous versions), but the Versa 3 gains the polish of the latest version of FitbitOS.

So I’ve got a pretty good feel for how they differ…and where they’re basically the same watch. After finishing my In-Depth Review of the Fitbit Sense, I switched it out for the Fitbit Versa 3. And the Fitbit Versa 3 is essentially a Fitbit Sense that’s $100 cheaper, minus a couple of features you probably won’t use very often after the novelty likely wears off (namely, ECG and EDA scans). While the Fitbit Sense earned all the news back a few weeks ago for its pile of new health sensing features, the reality is that the company will probably sell more Fitbit Versa 3 units than Sense units.
