Amid some glitz and glamour, Fitbit today announced the Versa 2 model. Coming in at $/£/Eur199 it is a sensibly priced upgrade for existing Fitbit owners who want the latest, greatest nice-looking model with a sweet OLED screen. There is little here to attract many new customers unless, perhaps, you specifically want voice access to AmazonAlexa or, perhaps, you specifically do not want an identically-priced, older, Apple Watch. The Apple Watch is better.
If you are looking at this for sport then it’s fine for indoor usage but GPS is needed from your phone when outdoors.
Fitbit Pay is still limited to the availability of your bank, although it can work on some city transport systems like those in New York & London.
Pandora, Deezer and Spotify are all available as music sources, which will cover a good many of you. Garmin has a much broader offering here and covers more music providers.
Fitbit also announced some improvements to their SLEEP functions but they’re just playing catch-up here to what others already do.
If you already have your personal data history in the GENERALLY GOOD Fitbit ecosystem then go for the upgrade.

I think everything published was very logical.
But, what about this? what if you typed a catchier title?
I am not saying your content is not solid., however suppose you added a headline that
grabbed people’s attention? I mean Fitbit Versa 2 Specifications the5krunner is a little boring.
You ought to peek at Yahoo’s home page and see how they
create post headlines to grab people to open the links.
You might add a video or a related picture or two to
grab readers excited about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it could bring your posts a little livelier.
you are obviously more of a content and SEO expert than me.
