The watch itself comes in white, lilac, mulberry and marina blue colors. The left edge of the watch contains the only button that you’ll be using on the Fitbit Versa Lite Edition, which will wake up the watch ready for you to cycle through the menus. The screen isn’t as responsive as you’d find on the Samsung Galaxy Watch or Apple Watch 4, but it works well enough for you to navigate around and use the Versa Lite’s various apps and functions. The Fitbit logo is also emblazoned along the bottom bezel. There are thick bezels around the display here, but if you’re using a black watch face it’s difficult to notice these.
It seemed clear and bright in our testing time, but Fitbit's screen tech has never seemed as vibrant as the Apple Watch 4 or some Wear OS devices. There’s a touchscreen on the front, and it’s a full color display with a resolution of 300 x 300 (that's the same as what the Fitbit Versa has). The durability in water is more for when you’re out running in the rain or you accidentally submerge your wrist. This watch is water resistant up to 50 meters, but it’s not specifically designed for the pool as it doesn’t feature swim tracking. It will definitely be much more suited to you than the Fitbit Ionic was. In our week of testing we found the watch to be comfortable, and this will be particularly suitable if you have smaller wrists.
The Lite edition is - no surprises here - the company’s most lightweight smartwatch yet, although we don't currently know the exact weight of the device. If you’ve used the Fitbit Versa, you’ll know a lot of the design that’s on offer here. Months on from release, the Versa Lite has also seen price cuts of its own, so it retains its place as the budget Versa device, with the original Versa slightly more pricey and the Versa 2 the most high-end of the trio. That’s something to bear in mind, so if you can get the Versa for only a bit extra we’d recommend buying that instead. So we’re hoping retailers will take the Fitbit Versa Lite and in the following months drop the price lower than what you’ll be paying on day one, but there's no guarantee that will be the case.Īt the time of writing our review, the Fitbit Versa was available on Amazon UK for only £154, which is obviously only a little more than the selling price of the Versa Lite at £149.99.
In fact, Amazon sold the Fitbit Versa for only £135.99 / $145 over the Christmas 2018 sales period. We’ve seen the Versa’s price drop a lot recently though in some places. The price is where this gets interesting, with it only costing $159.95 / £149.99 / AU$249.95, compared to the standard Fitbit Versa’s selling price of $199.95 / £199.99 / AU$299.95.
