However, Fitbit is taking a risk with today’s launch by getting rid of physical buttons on the new devices, something that hasn’t worked well for wearables in the past - small touchscreens suck. Google is one of the four tech giants targeted by increased antitrust investigations - Fitbit is just caught in the middle. The smartwatches ship in late September.Īlthough Google has vowed not to use Fitbit data to target ads, the deal is facing a full EU antitrust probe.
You can preorder all three today - Fitbit Sense for $330, Fitbit Versa 3 for $230, and Fitbit Inspire 2 for $100. Fitbit claims the Sense and Versa 3 offer over six days of battery life. Fitbit also introduced Fitbit Versa 3 with GPS and Google Assistant, plus Fitbit Inspire 2 with battery life of up to 10 days.

The exact release date for these health wearables in Malaysia has not yet been revealed but consumers throughout the world can expect to see them in stores sometime in October.Connect with top gaming leaders in Los Angeles at GamesBeat Summit 2023 this May 22-23. In terms of pricing in Malaysia, the Fitbit Sense will start at RM 1498 while the Fitbit Versa 3 and Fitbit Inspire 2 will be made available for RM 1148 and RM 498 respectively. Since Fitbit Premium subscription already costs RM 335 per year in Malaysia, that is surely a value for money addition to the new fitness tracker but you have to sign up for a new Premium account to take advantage of it though.
Interesting enough, Fitbit has also decided to pair the Inspire 2 with a one-year worth of Fitbit Premium subscription. The new model carries several improvements including a brighter display and longer battery life of up to 10 days alongside new exercise modes and Active Zone Minutes.
Instead of having two separate models, the follow-up to the Inspire and Inspire HR comes in just one form: the Inspire 2. In addition to Google Assistant support, the new health watch also comes with fast charging capability which allows it to obtain one day worth of operating time with just 12 minutes of charging time although it still has similar battery life rating as per Sense at six days. Other than that, users can now also take calls on their Versa 3 if they connect it to Android phones.
