Fitbit Versa comfort
Rating: 5
I bought this as a gift for my daughter. She absolutely loves it. She lives the pink color and she said the band is so soft and comfortable she wears it to Zumba and has no issue. She likes the size and comfort of wearing it. She like being able to see her heart rate and her favorite APP so far is the Relax App. She has had it for a few weeks now and has had no issues. She's still exploring the Apps and functions. I'm very happy with the purchase and the fact that she loves.

Excellent Smart Watch
Rating: 5
I bought this watch for Christmas and I love it. All features are as describe, easy to use and I also bought extra bands and accessories to match my wardrobe. The only down fall is that I'm not getting a low battery warning and battery does not last 4 days. 3 days batterylife max. I highly recommend it.

Loving my Versa
Rating: 5
I love my Fitbit Versa. It was easy to set up and I've had zero problems. I never realized how little I actually move. No wonder I gained weight. If you can't get a notification to come up, research how to turn it on. I'm very happy with mine. I'm getting 4 plus days of battery life. It charges quickly. I love that I can download free clock faces from the Fitbit app. Looking forward to buying new snazzy bands.

Used some Christmas money and got a great deal at Sam's Club. Nice features and links to my Samsung phone.

Great smartwatch!

I love everything about my Fitbit!! It would be better if you could actually talk on it though, especially for the price! Other than that it does everything it says it does, plus more! Really great product!

Keeps me on track!
Rating: 4
I purchased this Fitbit as a recommendation from my cardiologist. I wanted to keep track of my resting HR as well as my high points in the day, and I'm thrilled I can see all the data via the app and my watch itself. I appreciate the ability to link it with other apps like Myfitnesspal and Strava. Oh and of course my Starbucks card! It's the little things, ya know! I am also more mindful of my steps now, and I can see active minutes. The watch faces are customizable via the app, and so are a number of cool widgets like a little torch light, a weather app, a water reminder, and music. The possibilities are great with this Versa, and my only one complaint is the battery life after a while. I still get a solid 4 days with bits of play time but I expected it to be a tad more as the manufacturer stated 7 days on purchase. Not a deal breaker, I just have to charge it while sleeping and that interrupts my sleep insights, another super cool feature! All in all I'd highly recommend it. I've never owned a Garmin or Apple Watch for any sort of comparison, but this does exactly what I needed it to at a fraction of competitions price points. Great company, great customer service!

Good. The only thing bad is that when you move your arm and youre not Walking it counts as a step! When I wake up in the morning I have steps on my watch after sleeping! Like 39!

Not User Friendly
Rating: 3
Love the idea of the watch but I cant get it to perform like it promises. For example, you can customize quick responses to text messages in the Fitbit app but I have not figured out how to respond to a text yet. Also, it took me two days to figure out how to enable my watch to receive text message notifications. I have updated both my iPhone and Versa, went to the Fitbit community for help as well as read the online instruction booklet. Not user friendly.

Buy with caution
Rating: 1
I purchased this fitbit in Feb 2019, by October the heart rate sensor stopped working and it wouldn't hold a charge for more than 8hrs. Fitbit replaced it because it was still under warranty. By April 2020, I had the same issue but warranty was expired so I sent it to Square trade (bought $22 coverage for 3yrs). Square trade "fixed" it but I received it back and it wouldn't charge, I sent it back again and they returned it fixed but only lasted 4months. Now square trade will not accept it again as cost of parts and fixing has exceeded original cost of the item. I have had Fitbit flex and Charge 2 both lasting 2 years. The versa has been my worst and last fitbit purchase. One of my coworker also has a versa that lasted only about a year.

Love it
Rating: 5
I had for over a year and its good and still love it. I have different bands to change out the look. love it more then other smartwatches it has that girly touch and looks like a normal circle watch vs other smartwatches. I have other apps to make it custom to my liking and change it around. I read people complaining about the battery but every night my phone and watch go on the charger, nothing to complain about just part of my daily routine. I love it and always looking for new bands to wear with it.

Best Smartwatch Yet.
Rating: 5
I've used Fitbit, and then another wearOS Smartwatch, and the Gen 5 Julianna far exceeds them both. The battery life is shorter than some, but that's not a deal breaker for me. I live the smaller size and decorative touches as well.

I like monitoring my blood pressure and watching how many steps I take on my watch. I haven't connected it with my phone yet but I like it so far.

I would buy it again
Rating: 5
I bought this watch for my daughter, because I have so many Fossil watches, and thought she would like it too, but she choose another brand. I'd would buy one for me because it's practical and easy to use, not heavy at all and like the style very much. So I do recommend this watch.

So far so good,
Rating: 4
Havent had any issues I'm still gettin to know the watch. I quickly bought wrist bands because of the reviews of how fast the original gets dirty so I havent worned mines. I went to the gym with it seems pretty accurate with the steps. It's only been about 2 weeks or so that I've had not much to say. Replies to messages well and hasnt gone dead on me just yet. Like it works a full day, I'm not on it all day and not many apps running as well.. 3 stars because no issues yet . I bought accessories so I wont destroy it. That's a clear protector on the face

Amazing
Rating: 4
I love this watch. I got this to upgrade from my fossil hybrid. There is 1 main thing that this watch doesn't do that my hybrid did (and the reason I didn't rate 5 star). The fossil app for my hybrid kept up with my sleep but this gen 5 operates through Google and it doesn't have that and it's pretty disappointing. I would much rather have a Fossil app to go with this

Beautiful watch

My only concern is that the leather strap is so pretty at first but it gets dirty and work downtown almost immediately.
by Away on 2019-12-14T16:00:00

Love the watch but 2 things...
Rating: 3
1. Battery length not as advertised, currently at 62% after wearing for 9 hours from fully charged. 2. Leather band already looks old after 1 week. I do not keep it on while cleaning or washing my hands. It just seems to absorb dirt. Otherwise, this is a great watch once you get it set up how you like.

I loved this watch, until it fell apart
Rating: 2
I love Fossil, I love so many of the products they produce! When they came out with the HR Smartwatch, I was so excited!! I had wanted a smartwatch that looked like a traditional watch with the circular face, not the square face. My husband bought this watch for my birthday November 22, 2018. I've had this watch for less than a year and suddenly it wouldn't charge or hold its battery life. I tried all the troubleshooting I could find and nothing worked. Then yesterday, while trying to charge the watch, as I pick it up from the charger the bottom side of my watch almost completely separated (see included photos). The seal is completely gone. I have taken very good care of this watch. You will see in the pictures that there is NO damage, at all, to any area or parts of my watch. I have never showered, swam or washed dishes while wearing the watch. I have no clue how this could have happened. I can't find the receipt to send my watch in to be fixed or else I would. I love this watch because it's fashionable and functional to workout with. I don't love that it falls apart when well taken care of. Buy at your own discretion, but keep your receipt incase the worst should happen.

I've l had my watch for 3 day and the band looks horrible. I wash my hands a lot and it got wet and looks like it about to start falling apart.
