Fitbit Versa 3 Health & Fitness Smartwatch with GPS, 24/7 Heart Rate, Alexa Built-in, 6+ Days Battery, Pink/Gold, One Size (S & L Bands Included)
sothere it is the all-new amazing awesome
stunning and good-looking fitbit burster
and what's great is they've added some
pretty cool new features
like blood oxygen readings gps tracking
playing music aloud and
even taking calls on your wrist so
there's a bunch of stuff i want to show
you about the versa 3 so sit back and
get comfortable
and let's get into it
starting off with what you get in the
box and fitbit have changed the
packaging quite a bit compared to
previous
fitbit versa
models but nonetheless it's
still an amazing unboxing experience and in the box you first up get the charging
cable then you also get some straps with
different sizes
of course the beautiful versa 3 watch
itself a little product information
booklet all packaged in this box with a
fitbit versus sleeve on the outside
it really is a nice unboxing experience
now at first glance it does look quite
similar to the versa 2 model but
of things and i must admit it has a very
premium look and feel one of the main
things you'll notice with the versa 3 is
how the display
now has a curved edge and not that
squared off finish
it also has gorilla glass 3 on the front
and comes in a couple of other colors
they also made some much needed
improvements on the back with the
charging connection which i'll show you
a little bit later
and it does still have a button on the
left hand side of the watch except
now it is a haptic button so when you
push it you'll just feel a slight
vibration
and the reason for this haptic button is
to improve the watch's water resistance
it does take a bit of getting used to
but overall is not that bad
then they've also made a huge
improvement when it comes to the straps
and honestly i could not be more
thrilled about this
if you've owned a versa model before
then you will know what a struggle it
was to change the straps but that is no
longer the issue with their new strap
mechanism as you can see between the old
and new strap there is a huge difference
and let me tell you guys it is
much easier to remove the strap you just
simply push this button up
and like that the strap disconnects from
the watch and you're done
to reconnect the strap you just pop it
back in and you'll hear a
click that's it the watch strap is in
place and it'll stay put
until you push that button again so this
is a huge
improvement compared to previous straps
and what's also nice
is you can interchange the straps from
the versa 3
and the fitbit sense watches overall a
huge improvement
and i love it
now on to the display and not only is
the screen size slightly bigger but the
resolution is also higher
within the display settings there are so
many things you can change like the
brightness of the screen
your watch time out and if always on
display is something you enjoy
you can just toggle that on and as you
may know this saves hugely on the
battery life
it is still an amoled display which
again saves on the battery but just
helps make those colors pop
and the screen so much more vivid it is
of course also still a touchscreen and
honestly
no complaints there when it comes to
responsiveness and at the end of the day
i am
super impressed with the display guys no
matter what your lighting conditions i
guarantee you
you'll be able to see the display even
in full-blown sunlight
[Music]
so there are definitely a bunch of cool
new features
on the versa 3 that you need to know
starting off with
find my phone so you head into the
application menu
and click on this option right over
there find my phone
once in this app you'll see this button
you tap on that
and in seconds your phone will start
ringing
and also yes we finally have gps built
in on the versa which is super simple to use when exercising
so in the app menu if i just scroll past
and select exercise then just tap on walk for example as you can see gps is automatically starting to
connect already if you swipe up you can access some more
settings and here's where you make sure
that the gps is toggled on because if this is off it's not going to track you
at all. then to see all your various gps routes
you can just access the fitbit app click on track your exercise and here's where you'll be able to see the exact route you took now blood
oxygen levels.is another new addition that works with
an integrated watch face so unfortunately you can't access it
straight away and take a reading on your
watch but if you do want to check it out then
go ahead and open up
the fitbit app on your phone and in
there under clock faces
make sure you select the sp02 signature
watch face
install that on your watch and right
over there is where you'll see your
blood oxygen reading the next morning
you can also check out those metrics on
the fitbit app but you do have to be a
premium member in some cases so just
check that out
so some of you might know that the versa
2 and now the versa 3
have amazon alexa built in but with a
future update
they'll be adding google assistant so
pretty soon you'll be able to access
google assistant
right on your wrist and ask it anything
plusvcalling from your wrist will also soon
be coming in that future updatevso you'll be able to make and take calls
right from your wrist which is
awesomevthen chatting about some standard
features and you can receive a bunch of
notificationsvjust be sure to check what notifications you can receive whether you're on iphone or android but for the most part you can receive whatsapps instagram dms and
]emails you also have a bunch of response
options like these quick replies which
are pre-made but you can change these just by heading
on over to the fitbit application
on your phone and making your own custom
ones so under versa 3 you'll scroll down
until you see notificationsvonce in there select quick replies and
you can actually make custom quick
replies for each applicationvso for what's up i just popped in a
couple of different ones that i often use and you can also choose which
custom emojis you'd like to use
so when all of that is done in future when you go to reply to a message or
someone you will have all your custom quick replies right over
there and i just love that you can do
this you can also switch up the watch faces a
bunch by heading on over to clock faces
all clock faces and there are literally
hundreds to choose from once you've found the one that you want
to install just tap on it you'll see the
select button and finally click install it'll install on your
watch in a couple of seconds and it is
literally that simple if you want to change it
again you can select from ones you've
installed beforeor brand new ones and the bam you've got
yourself some new watch faces as mentioned there are so many different
ones to choose from so definitely check out the clock faces
then you can also access spotify just by heading into the app menu and clicking on spotify once you've logged in andvconnected everything it acts like a remote on your watch where you can
control your music pause play or even skip songs
unfortunately you can't download music just yet but still it's nice to have
that then of course you have the
exercise app where you can choose to track a bunch of
different exercisesand there are a ton to choose from guys
once you've selected your exercise there are a bunch of different metrics
displayed from your heart rate to
calories and so much more for some extra settings
you can just click on that haptic button and you'll be able to resume
or end your exercise on to the size of this watch and the
versa 3 is 1.59 inches wide by 1.59 inches long here's what it looks
like alongside the previous versa 2 model as well as
the apple watch series 5. it is so similar in size to
the versa 2 but as mentioned the display is bigger it is
also much the same when it comes to the
thickness of the watch and at the end of
the day sits super comfortably on the wrist the charging for the versa 3 has also been dramatically changed and for the better so this is what the
charger now looks like and all you do is
take your watch place it on top and it
magneticallysnaps into place your watch will start
charging instantly and to remove it you
just snap it offso this is way better and much easier
than the previous model where you had to clip your watch into the charging cradlethis is also fitbit's first quick
charging cable so for 12 minutes of charge you will get
24 hours of battery life i mean that's insane and a huge plus
then onto some other features and you
still get the 24 7 heart rate tracker but they have improved the technology to
get a much more accurate reading
throughout the day. you can go onto the fitbit app and see
all your recorded heart ratemeasurements throughout the day and i
honestly find this super fascinating especially if you want
to keep a close eye on your heart rate. you can also monitor it live while in an exercise like elliptical for example you'll see a
change as you exercise which is super awesome shortcuts is also
really new and you can access them by
scrolling down within settings. and tapping on shortcuts once in there
you'll be able to choose what various shortcuts you want for
example music spotify quick settings or even payments
and then what happens is when you click.
and hold down on that haptic button it'll activate your shortcuts so for
example i use spotify andjust like that it loaded my spotify the
other shortcut you can choose is the double press one
and this is really cool because it opens up four different shortcuts
when you go ahead and double press that haptic button so as you can see these were the four that i chose from
and it just makes life so much quicker and easier
then finally you also get sleep tracking on the versa 3
and you can check out all your sleep sets on the fitbit application
what i really love that fitbit have done is they create a sleep score for you so
you can quick and easily see how well you slept that night as well as
a whole bunch of other really interesting sleep metrics so definitely check that out if you enjoyed this Article.
