Best review of the Fitbit Versa 3. My Fitbit Ionic just died and I am heartbroken. I really liked it and they are now discontinued. I am looking into the Versa 3. I hear a lot of complaints about the syincing and no actual button. I am still deciding if I even want to stick with Fitbit. I love the App itself.

Thanks so much for your comments Gloria and thanks for watching! I've been happy with the Versa 3 using it now for the past 10 months. I've gotten used to using the haptic button on it. My Versa 3 has been syncing well and I really like the Fitbit app. If you can wait just a bit longer, typically there are a lot of new smart watches released in the fall (mid September) at that time current smart watches like the versa 3 typically drop in price making it an even better deal to pick one up.

Hi I have the Fitbit versa 3 and when I'm watching the videos they are leaving a lot of stuff out for example on my one I am able to you use 5 watch faces as you know but you can now incorporate a personal photograph as a watch feature also when a watch is on display there are four Points top-left top-right bottom-left bottom-right which will shortcut you two different features also when you download Google assistant once the watch is linked to your phone you can just say to Google dad and it will call also you can set it so that when your phone receives a call it will go directly to the Watch audio and all I have also been able to stream KZbin music coming from the Watch then I linked my airpods and was able to listen to them through my earbuds Wi-Fi was not necessary once you connect with Bluetooth it will keep most features running just have a good look at your watch then your phone there is a lot of stuff that people are just not aware of I hope this was helpful if you want to know anything or have any questions just hit me up and I'm sure I can help

Great video. Helped me a lot although I currently do not have a Fitbit. My previous Fitbit, which just died in 2019, was purchased sometime in 2014 or 2015. I loved it, but it eventually would not charge any more. About the only issue I had with it was that I could not update the current time when I changed time zones. This was really a problem when I moved to New Zealand for 7 months. It took 2 weeks for the time to catch up, and then I visited Australia, which made it have incorrect time again for about a week. HOW do you manually change the time when you are travelling and need to keep track of the correct time? I would assume that Fitbit's Versa 3 does this.

It's not bad, sometimes it seems like it's not always as responsive as I'd like. Occasionally when I push on it it doesn't seem to recognize I'm pushing on it.
