5.0 out of 5 starsI don’t feel completely dressed for the day without it!

This is my 3rd FitBit, I pre-ordered the Versa 2 with Alexa as soon as I heard about it as my Ionic had just died after nearly 2 years. I tried an Apple Watch but switched back for a few reasons. One, the battery life on Fitbit beats Apple by a landslide, Apple has to be charged daily, my V2 is a year old and still lasts 4+ days. And it charges crazy fast! Two, I love my community on FitBit. Weekly challenges with people I know from all over the world, family, old friends & new friends. It’s a neat way to stay connected without all the social media crap.
As mentioned, this one is a year old now, it still works great, the watch face is in great condition (a few minor scratches, I’m hard on all my devices and wear my FitBit 24/7), it has lots of great features and apps. The sleep score is very helpful, sometimes it stops working properly (it glitches on avg 2-3 months) but all that is needed is a reboot of the watch itself.
For me personally, I should have ordered the one without Alexa and saved a few dollars as I never use that feature, despite having plenty of Alexa devices around the house. But this in no way diminishes the quality and Alexa is something you would use a lot, def go for it, it works just fine, I just don’t really like talking to my watch (I guess I’ll never work for CONTROL 😉).
The app itself is good, I’d make some changes but nothing major.
