How are you supposed to make calls on the Sense 2 when there are no 3rd party apps to make calls..........Bought a Sense 2 and very disappointed that there are no 3rd party apps available.

    Fitbit application not run in many monile

The smarter a watch tries to be, the less time it can last being smart. Take the Pixel Watch for instance, all that functionality and yet I hear frequently that the thing has to be charged twice a day.

      I have returned more than one Apple Watch over the past couple of years as I just cannot get along with having to constantly be aware of the battery life of something I am wearing.
      So for me the Sense 2 is as smart as it needs to be, in order to function in the way I prefer from a wearable. That is to say it packs in plenty of health related features, gives me the ability to triage my notifications on the go, and lasts several days between charge.

      This is in stark contrast to the likes of the pixel Watch and Apple Watch etc. who are trying desperately to replicate as much functionality from your smartphone as they can, and then requiring frequently daily charging as a result.

        On the Fitbit Sense 2 the bezel includes the ECG/EDA electrodes, so it's not exactly wasted space. Bezels are not evil things; a bit of bezel is acceptable, and helps to prevent accidental taps. Also improves durability against shocks.

        I'm thankful for this update. It's true that the latest generation of Fitbit smartwatches is controversial. Many speculate that Google has nerfed these watches to prevent them from competing with the Pixel Watch, which is such a scummy, unfair move to us. In terms of fitness features especially sleep tracking, these watches are still quite good however many would agree they are now more of "feature watches" rather than proper smartwatches. Sad to see this happen, but I have hope this situation can be slowly improved with updates over time. However, third-party app support is realistically probably never going to come back...

          If be surprised if Fitbit is shifting many of these, they've been panned in reviews.

              It's kinda hilarious how with updates they're "adding" features which have already been on my Versa 3 for a long time. Plus, I can use the speaker for the Google Assistant which Versa 4 lacks.
              Versa 4 really feels like a downgrade...

                If they solve that thick bezel might buy one, fitbit sense 3 next year...

                  Finally. Great update! When it comes live?

                    I can't get past that thick bezel. 😝
