Google Fitbit Versa 4 Fitness Smartwatch - Pink Sand/Copper Rose

I am not the kind of person that wanted a wristwatch, let alone a smart watch. I don't need that level of connectivity, and I have the unfortunate tendency to destroy nicer watches because of clumsiness and absent-mindedness. But, I do enjoy working out. I love having data when I want to see it. And, importantly, I work in a profession where I would benefit from having a wrist watch to check the time. It's with that mindset that I finally caved and purchased the Fitbit Charge a few years ago. I liked it, but it crashed a bunch of times and eventually refused to reboot. So, I started looking for alternatives. I found the Versa but resisted, as I really don't want or need most smart watch features. Then Black Friday sales came along and I took the plunge. I am glad I did. The watch is durable, easy to use, fits well, and does all of the things I want it to do. I mostly use it to track steps, heartrate, workouts, check the weather, and set timers at work. It does not have a catchy or flashy look, which I am more than fine with. My biggest concerns are whether or not the screen can take a hit (it does) and if I'll fry the darn thing when I inevitably forget I'm wearing it while showering or swimming (it's waterproof). I don't use a lot of the features on this thing. I tried syncing with my Google Wallet, but I find it way easier to just use my phone or wallet -- two things I am very reluctant to travel without. My phone is on silent most days, so I guess it's nice to get alerts when I've missed a call, but I really don't pay much attention to it. I've never bothered with the advanced features for health monitoring, though I guess for a person experiencing health difficulties or someone wildly focused on wellness would find the features useful. The Fitbit app is a nice bonus, and the premium features include some solid workouts and tools for holding yourself accountable to fitness goals. I've dabbled with these when really focused on personal goals, and seen the usual mixed results of someone who will only somewhat commit themselves to diet and workout goals. Still, nice to have. In a world where most smart watches are double the price for a slew of features I don't want or need, this is an excellent product.

I love my Fitbit Versa. It tracks my sleep, fitness, steps, reminds me to move, displays my texts, and looks nice too. The biggest benefit to me is the battery life. I usually can go days on one charge. With my iWatch, I had to charge it every night. what’s the point of the iWatch tracking your sleep if you have to charge it overnight.

Loving it. Works great. The sleep tracker works very well. Accurate tracking for swimming laps and walking. Heart rate and oxygen info very helpful. So far, easy to use. Very comfortable on the wrist. Hardly know it’s there. This is my third Fitbit. I’ve tried other brands but this is by far the easiest to use. Size and shape of watch face is easy to read. Phone app has all the info laid out nicely. Really helps me stay on track with my health and fitness goals. Lots to love about this tracker.

Bought 12Jul23. Great fitness tracker, I've worn it every day for nearly 3 years. I sweated on it. it got rained on. it got scratched. I wore it around my ankle, upper arm, and my wrist. Got the best reading from my ankle wear. I went through five bands. Today, 18May26, there was a bright flash on the screen, and it went gaaput! It is DOA. I plan to replace it, and the new FitBit Air is a contender; I haven't decided yet. I wish the device were like a classic watch that collected the health details. Anyhow, it served me well. I wish it lasted longer.

Do not buy this watch to track runs. I’ve had a persistent problem with the Versa 4 where the first mile or so of GPS tracking is wildly inaccurate even on perfectly clear days. It doesn’t always fail, but maybe 50% of the time or more, and appears to be getting worse lately. The two screenshots are of the same loop run. One shows a reasonable track, the other shows the issue I'm having with the watch, where the GPS tracking inaccurate and thus incorrectly reports distance and pace. I purchased this watch in December 2023 for my son who didn’t use it. I started using it 6 or 7 months later when my Versa 3 died. I have 30+ years of experience debugging and resolving issues, a master’s degree in computer science and work as a director of engineering. I’ve owned both Garmin and the prior Versa 3 GPS watches. I contacted fitbit support last November as I was fed up with the poor performance. They were cheery and stated their commitment to resolving the issue. Support: try loosening the watchband as far as possible. Me: I don’t like a loose watch while running, but I’ll try it. No luck Support: keep the watch away from your bones Me: The watch generally sits by the wrist bone, but since I’ve loosened it up, I’ll try sliding it up my forearm. The problem persists. Support: Factory reset the watch. Me: I went through the tedious factory reset process and appeared to have success on the first following run. But the problem reappeared on the next run Support: Your fitbit app is out of date, it’s 4.34.11 and needs to be 4.35 Me: I’m not having problems with the fitbit application, I’m having problems with the watch. I went to update to 4.35 on my Android phone, but it wasn’t available. Support: You need to wait for 4.35 to come out in order for us to continue this case. Me: I waited for 4.35 to come out and resent the screen-shots of my failed runs. Support: In the fitbit application go to exercises/run and make sure GPS is enabled. Me: There are no exercise/run settings in the phone app, but there are on the Versa 4 watch. I’ve sent them many screen-shots of the GPS tracked runs using the Versa 4. Sent them a picture of GPS being enabled on the watch. Support: Make sure the phone app has GPS always privileges and has privileges to run in the background. Me: What does this have to do with the GPS on my watch? Sent screenshots to show that GPS is always enabled on the phone app and it is permitted to run in the background. [I'm now waiting for another response, but they continue to throughout seemingly unrelated solutions to the fundamental issue] Note: I’ve noticed now, with V4.35 of the fitbit application on my phone, that the Versa 4 will immediately report “GPS Connected” when I start a run, even if I’m in the house with both my phone and watch. Neither can access the GPS satellites. I suspect, with this version of the phone app, the watch is using the phone’s location services to indicate GPS connection, even if the phone is using Cell or WiFi to get approximate location. The initial mile or so of my runs remains inaccurate, even though the watch starts off with “GPS connected”. Fitbit support does not seem to be focused on the source of my issue, the poor performance of the GPS system on this Versa 4 watch. Is my watch faulty, or does the Versa 4 have a weak GPS system in it’s design? I don’t know. This watch is not useful for tracking runs. I would recommend anyone looking for a run-tracking watch look elsewhere. The Versa 3 took a little time to get initial GPS lock, but then tracked without problems. The Garmins locked quickly and were accurate.

Long-time Fitbit user from the early days. The Versa 4 has worked well for me, particularly regarding sleep tracking. My newer Apple Watch is wildly inaccurate for sleep stages and is getting worse each update. I tested my Versa 4 against a medical sleep study and it was within a few percentage points, where the Apple Watch was off by a significant enough amount to be considered unusable for sleep tracking per the sleep docs. The Versa 4 does not have all the fancy shmancy bells and whistles of the Apple Watch, but what it does it does well. Plus a 5-7 day battery is nice. Too bad Google will not be making any more Fitbit smartwatches. The Fitbit Air is a very nice tracker, but not having the notifications to me makes the Air a nice device, but not what I need.

I absolutely love my Fitbit Versa 4 and would not want to be without it. I have been wearing a Fitbit for at least the last 15 years. I appreciate that it keeps track of my steps and reminds me to walk at least once an hour. However, recently, it might’ve turned into a lifesaver for me. I woke up to an alert, that I was in atrial fibrillation during the night. I would have never known otherwise. Also, my heart was racing for about 3 1/2 days, I knew I had to take it extremely easy until my heart rate comes down.. Google Health urged me to seek medical attention. I immediately went to urgent care and they referred me to see my cardiologist as soon as possible. I did that and they found there is a problem. It is yet to be resolved, but I am on top of things, only because I have a Fitbit. So I recently bought a new one because I do not want to be without and my current one had a little bit of a crack in the case and yet, it was still functioning fine. I wear it to sleep, to swim, and shower. Never had a problem. Battery lasts for about a week. Be aware, never plug it in directly to an outlet, it should charge by attaching it to the USB port on your computer. No complaints.. . I’ve seen others with much more expensive watches, but this does it for me. Oh, I also love the fact that Amazon has so many sellers who have the interchangeable, watch bands, for much less the cost than the original Fitbit band. Back to the Versa 4, I love the large face, my boyfriend’s watch look! Very smart looking.

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?

good quality, lots of features, works well

تم استلامها 12 اكتوبر والا أكملت شهرين من الاستخدام و تعمل بشكل ممتاز ولم أرى عليها اي ملاحظات

Fue un regalo. La persona a la que se lo regalé me dijo que salió muy bueno, no tuvo fallas. Fácil de sincronizar y muy útil. Llegó a tiempo y muy bien empacado. El único problema, pero es ajeno al producto, es que, por estar cambiándole las correas muy seguido, la última vez no debió haber quedado bien puesto y se le perdió. Pero compró otro, porque estaba muy contenta con el reloj.

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.

Fitbit, is perfect to record data that everyday folks would like to no.
