The topic Google will still sell you the Fitbit Sense 2 or Versa 4 after launching ‘Air’ is currently the subject of lively discussion — readers and analysts are keeping a close eye on developments.
This is taking place in a dynamic environment: companies’ decisions and competitors’ reactions can quickly change the picture.
Google’s Fitbit lineup is remaining almost entirely unchanged after launching the screenless Air tracker. That means you can still buy flagship models outside of the Pixel Watch family.
The Fitbit Air takes a stab at the displayless tracker, which has its own dedicated following of people who want to wear a tracker without a screen or any sort of distraction. It’s a great option for those who like to keep activity logged while dressing up or down, since it looks like a traditional bracelet.
Google hasn’t let the additional model disrupt its current offering pool. The company has not pulled the Google Fitbit Versa 4 or Sense 2 to accommodate the new model. Users can still buy one of the flagship wearables on the company’s website, for the time being.
After all, they offer very different experiences from the Fitbit Air. The Sense 2 still sits as the most capable tracker because of ECG tracking, where the Versa 4 and new Air don’t have the ability to read any electrical signals. The Versa 4 would still be a good choice if you need a display readout and phone notifications, though the Fitbit app brings all health information into one spot.
The Fitbit Charge and Inspire 3 are also still available from the website. The lineup has only expanded, but we could see Google consolidate in future. There are quite a few overlapping options, as the Fitbit lineup stands.
Pricing for the Fitbit Versa 4 and Sense 2 hasn’t changed, though Google is currently running some deals while the display-free model gets its debut. The Versa 4 is down to $150, and the Sense 2 is similarly discounted to $200. The Air, of course, undercuts all of them at $99.
