the Fitbit may seem like Benjamin in the battles on the customer’s wrist, but the u.s. company sells is actually more smart and fitnessure than both the Samsung, Huawei and even the Garmin. Only Apple manages to sell more smartwatches than the Fitbit.
One of the reasons for Fitbits success is probably that their watches cost more tilnærmelige and Fitbit Versa Lite is the company’s so far the cheapest smartwatch. The low price means, of course, to cut several features, but it is not necessarily a dealbreaker, if you just want a fitness smartwatch to the ease of training, and can do without all the wild features as the more expensive competitors can offer.
Fitbit Versa Lite has the same Apple Watch-like design as its predecessor, the Fitbit Versa, in the sense that it is quadratic. I personally like, as I have not yet seen a round screen use the space available wisely. There may simply be more information on a square screen and just the information is well reason to not buy an analog watch?

the Screen is on 1,34 inch and gives the watch a pretty good size for both women and men. Included silikoneremme in both small and large, but the watch can also be equipped with traditional straps, if preferred. Versa Lite is a tad thicker than the Apple Watch Series 4, but not something that generate when you have a jacket of the. The design is rather toned down with just a single button on the side of the watch.
hopefully, can be sensed by the pictures, there is nothing to expose at samlekvaliteten. In turn, work materials are not, as though they are taken from the top shelf. It makes the watch very easy, but it does not work just as robust as, for example, the Apple Watch.
I got the white version to test, but Fitbit Versa Lite is available in three different color variants, if you, like I, think that the white is too pussy force to a herrearm.

Fitbit is rooted in fitness tracking, and it felt. Versa Lite has a wide variety of fitness metrics without taking the upper hand and becomes unmanageable. Versa Lite running the same Fitbit software big brother Versa (FitbitOS).
the Watch has an optical heart rate monitor and tracker both running, cycling, walking, vægtløft (!), interval training and ran on the treadmill. In addition, it can track sleep and since the Fitbit Versa Lite has a imponernede battery life of up to four days, so provides the functionality to actually make sense.
As mentioned previously, the Fitbit cut on the features to get the price down. One of the cuts, that hurts, is the lack of storage space for music. Last year’s Versa be able to accommodate around 300 songs and be able to sync offline playlists with both Deezer and Pandora. Versa Lite is completely empty for music, so you have to take your phone (or MP3 player) with you if you want to hear music on the run. Versa Lite also has no GPS, so you will track your route, do you still have the phone.
another significant thing that is removed compared to last year’s Versa, is the tracking of swimming. So are you going to use the watch in the wet element, so you must also go for a different solution.

Although the Fitibit has a cut in the features, is the quality of the measurements intact. My experience is that both the heart rate monitor bearings and pace counting is completely on par with other smartwatches, I’ve tested. I actually went with the Apple Watch Series 4 and Fitbit Versa Lite on each of his wrists in a period of time, and the numbers were quite similar.
All of the data collected during training, is sent to the Fitbit app on your smartphone. I used it primarily with an iPhone, but it is available, of course, also for Android. The app is manageable, although it contains nicely many options. It also allows you to keep an eye on meals, water intake, weight, and – if you are a woman – the menstrual cycle.
One thing, however, irks me, is that Fitbit have not made the app compatible with Apple Health-system, since I normally store all my data there. But you can’t have it all.
As the smartwatch features Fitbit Versa Lite basic functions. You get notifications on the watch when someone is calling, or if you get messages on social media, just like you can set alarms and be reminded of things.

It is also possible to install a number of third-party apps on the watch; for example, I found both the Philips Hue to control my LED lights and a stripped-down version of Spotify, Spotify HR, fjernbetjener Spotify on the mobile. The more curious can include SickScore, which warns if there are many outbreaks of diseases in your neighbourhood – in my case ‘the Capital’.
Unfortunately, the processor in the watch is not fiercely springy, so it all feels a bit subdued, but it is a very good reason for that: battery life.
Like the big brother the Fitbit Versa from last year has Versa Lite an impressive battery life of up to four days. And it is according to my experience, even on the low side; if the clock is not be used for all sorts of fun, so it becomes hardly a problem to squeeze in five or six days out of a charge. For comparison, one must be lucky if you can squeeze two full days out of a Apple Watch.

supplied with a USB charger, which the clock can be placed, but I’m not fond of. It is clear that the Fitbit has saved here; it is, strangely designed, so it can’t lie flat on the table, when the USB cable is mounted in the ninety-degree angle at the bottom. Sex is certainly not, as it is stored neatly away after use.
For the price Fitbit Versa Lite, however, a fine fitness watch. If you do not know, whether you want to use a smartwatch, but would like to try some of the possibilities – and at the same time have the opportunity to measure the training and activity – so is the Versa Lite is a fairly obvious choice for a reasonable price.
It is my impression that the watch has fitness features enough to satisfy the majority, who do not cultivate the elite. On the other hand, the watch is not stuffed with unimaginable opportunities. There could be more apps in the store, and the apps seem generally a little dull, but it’s easy to forgive at this price.
