![]() If you’re looking for a great-looking, back-to-basics fitness tracker that fulfills a few smartwatch functions, the Versa Lite is a great choice.Īs my colleague Lauren Goode noted, you could very easily mistake the Versa Lite for the original Versa (and the original Versa for the Apple Watch). I don’t miss a lot of the features that Fitbit cut out, and a few have even improved. A year after testing the Versa, I am surprised by how delighted I was to strap it back on my wrist. At $160, the Versa Lite is one of the most affordable smart fitness watches around, which Fitbit accomplished by scaling back on features like onboard Wi-Fi and NFC payments (all still available on the original Versa and the Versa Special Edition). That's exactly what makes Fitbit's new, lower-priced offerings so appealing to customers like me. Coughing up $400 for an Apple Watch feels absurd, especially for someone who ran with a cheapo Timex Ironman for a decade. But after years of reviewing fitness trackers, I have yet to pull the trigger.Ī big part of my reluctance stems from the price tag. I like them a lot and have devoted serious thought to buying one of my very own, to have and to hold, et cetera. Every few weeks, I put a new one on, take it running, hiking, and swimming, and then ship it back to the manufacturer.
