Fitbit Versa to Apple Watch Experience | The Better Watch?

I love how you moved your tv after the many comments from your other video 🤣

[@DayoAworunse]

Surprisingly this was the setup I’ve always had for 90% of my videos. That Fitbit video randomly took off because for that one time I was too lazy to raise up the table lol

[@suzietoanoneart]

@@DayoAworunse haha wow, I have only seen two of your videos including this one. But I like your content and how you review them. You're detailed. Thank you for replying back !

[@EezaLast]

I came here from you Fitbit farewell and this is very helpful. I still went with a Fitbit though because I just can't compromise on the battery life. Once Apple makes a watch that can last even just 3-4 days, I'd switch. I totally agree with your review on Fitbit though.

[@ceyb8672]

I switched from an Apple Watch to a FitBit Versa 3 and so far loving it! I only used my Apple Watch a total of 15 times before giving it to my mother. In which, she has gotten more usage than me out of it. As long as I can read my notifications from texts and answer received calls I am okay. I use the Versa mainly for work (Health Care Professional) to track the time, use the calculator app, etc. The Apple Watch was too much for me (too distracting) and I don’t understand the hype of it and I am 26 years old.

[@AbhishekSharma-tz7be]

As a doctor, I too feel the same...💞

[@eado]

SAAAAAMMEEEE! I got it for my bday and feel bad because took it off and put the Fitbit back on after about 6/7 days… plus Fitbit batterie is SO much better

[@LL-et3yk]

How’s your versa 3 holding up? I’m leaning towards getting my first smartwatch and eyeing the versa 3 but saw some reviews about it falling apart after a year.

[@ceyb8672]

@@LL-et3yk Hello, my FitBit no longer sync to my phone and I have tried everything to get to work. I ended up a few months ago going back to a smartwatch. I did enjoy the Fitbit and it’s intact but the software got laggy over time and no longer working. It will not do anything. So, for longevity, I’ll say get a smartwatch but for a better productivity I loved my Fitbit. I still don’t wear my smartwatch everyday. I still say it’s still too distracting for me.

[@LL-et3yk]

I agree the solo loop is very underrated I absolutely love it, it is so comfortable

[@maggiec5400]

I switched from the original Fitbit versa to the Apple Watch SE, two months ago. Best decision ever. I love that I can now answer messages and still track my sleep and activities. I love the braided solo loop and charge it every night before bed. Best decision I made. 👌🏻⌚️ Also turned the breath reminders off.

[@DayoAworunse]

I JUST got my braided solo loop, seriously an underrated part of the product, and even more comfortable than the sports solo loop. Glad you've enjoyed the switch over. Also yeah breath reminders were a bit much lol

Thanks for your comment. I have the original Versa as well and similar to Dayo I have an iPhone XS I’m debating the SE or latest series. Your comment based on your experience has helped greatly in my decision.

Been busy with my job so apologizes if are expecting newer videos, they’ll be coming soon. Appreciate the sub :)

[@RedheadLG]

Here's my biggest problem with the Apple Watch and the deal breaker for me: the Apple Watch hijacks notifications from the iPhone. There is no way to get notification sounds on your iPhone if you're wearing an Apple Watch. And the watch gives you no ability to customize notification sounds, you just get the same generic ding for everything that comes in. So I can't tell whether I've gotten an email, text, WhatsApp, etc, nor can I get the custom notifications for individual contacts from the phone. I don't understand why nobody has mentioned this in any review I've seen, but for me I'm not going to lose important functionality on my phone for a watch. The watch is supposed to make your life easier not harder.

[@fshstksmoneybags5086]

I've never realized that but I still don't care. I set my watch to only notify me on the things I care about anyway

[@JeffNucci]

LOL turn off mirrored alerts in the Watch app on your phone and solve this problem

[@KoolKukumber]

Problem solved guess it’s not a dealbreaker after all. My main problem is the battery life, I feel like it drains fast, also scratches easily but that can be solved with a screen protector which is just annoying

[@JB-hq9yj]

Or you can just learn how to use your watch? There is a mirror setting for this. It’s not a problem with the watch

[@RedheadLG]

The mirror setting doesn’t solve it. I’d already tried that first. Apple support itself said it doesn’t do it.

Hey there! I had ordered an Apple Watch stainless steel gold and curious - did they change the gold color of the 4 and the 5? It doesn’t seem as gold as to be expected

[@DayoAworunse]

I believe Series 4 & 5 are the same. Series 6 has a much different color and has a more yellow hue to it. Where as the previous generations of stainless steel gold is more of a rose/copper gold look.

[@cassandrac346]

Thanks! The gold def seems to not show as many marks. Do you have good recommendations of dressier bands? I feel as silver and SS black may go with more, but kind of like the gold

[@IHaveAnAwfulUserName]

The fitness gaming mode is most likely aimed at people with VR gear or something like a Switch. There's a range of VR titles such as BoxVR, Creed and Hot Squat which are designed to give you some form of workout without going to a gym or even feeling too much like you are just working out. The same can be said for games like Fitness Boxing and RingFit Adventure on the Switch. The issue is that the fitness gaming mode is a kind of broad strokes option unlike some 3rd party options which can track what game you're playing (such as YUR).

Hi, I am about to return my Sense (so sad, I’m coming for a Blaze and the sense felt like a more expensive version of the blaze with not a lot of new tech). What fitness app do you use now that you can’t use the Fitbit app? I LOVE the Fitbit app which is what has kept me from the Apple Watch this whole time. I like the analysis of the Fitbit app not just colorful rings, such kid stuff! Anyhow, do you use Strava? What do you use that’s close to the Fitbit app on the Apple Watch? I’d love to not need my phone all the time!

[@souljayeni]

I’m in the same boat, I love the Fitbit app too much 😔. Idk if I should switch or not

[@jessicamunday9377]

I’m a month into my Apple Watch 6. I still miss the Fitbit app and info, but with all the native functions that work with the iPhone I’ll be staying with the Apple Watch. Phone calls and texts are great. Replying to texts, great. And I’ve been using Strava and Peloton apps for my fitness. There’s a lot of stuff I don’t like about the watch, some mentioned below, but it works a lot more in my world than the most $$$$ Fitbit Sense. But I still miss the Fitbit app and the way it displays all the info.

[@souljayeni]

@@jessicamunday9377 thanks for the update Jessica! I think I will switch to the Apple Watch SE. I guess I’ll be tracking my calories and diet through MyFitnessPal from now on. I’ll check out Strava and Peloton too! But yes I also have an iPhone so the perks of having an Apple Watch would be amazing

[@jessicamunday9377]

Yeah, all the ‘rings’ a d visual info on the Apple Watch feel so big and dumbed down. I just want the info in regular graphs. I just miss the fitbit health info. For sleep tracking I use an app called AutoSleep becasue I loathed all the others. Fitbit was better at this. I have the 6 and I’m not sure it better than the SE. I turned off ‘always on’ with in the first two days of owning it because it’s drained the battery with in a day. Really pretty upset about that. And then by the time my return period was over I realized the Oxygen feature is a little useless. My physiotherapy trainer pointed out that unless you are sick, your oxygen is pretty much the same all the time. Those were the two features I wanted over the SE... so. Wasn’t happy about that. But it’s pretty, I leave my phone a lot so I’m glad I got the cellular option! The sport loop took a bit to get used to as well! LOL

[@GH-ic4ll]

NOW I'M CONFUSED AS HECK! I just watched your I'm done with Fitbit video ((1) I'm Done With FitBit | Sense & Versa 3 Review - KZbin); in which your complete focus was on the ongoing fitness issues with the device and how the cost of the device has increased to the price range of the Apple Watch. Now, you state in this video, "people don't buy the Apple Watch for Fitness." WTF Dude, was your purpose to educate and advise your viewers on the transition from Fitbit to Apple Watch. I'm feeling someone is enjoying some free products from Apple. Thanks for sharing! I bet you just got your notice of my post on your Apple Watch...

[@DayoAworunse]

I still agree with most of the points here but disagree with the last one. Yes, Fitbit products prices are climbing to mainstream competitors and at the price point, it makes it harder as a choice when you’re invested in an android ecosystem and even worse the apple ecosystem. And Apple Watch dominates the smart watch market share even though they don’t have “budget” options (now the SE rivals Fitbit in price. Apple has some of the loyalist customers in ALL industries so when you present a Fitbit or Apple Watch SE side by side, 9/10 the apple customer is going to pick the SE, regardless of the fitness. I’ve never gotten a free apple product in my life, and 99% of the products on this channel come from my own personal money. I also explained in this video I bought this Apple Watch off Facebook marketplace which I always advise people to do. Used is better value for your money, especially apple products. I can see how you can be confused though, but being done with Fitbit, their price increases, lack of functionality after some time and biggest of all support (lot of people share the same sentiment in the comments), the company just isn’t the same of what it used to be. The only thing Fitbit has going for it is battery life and…sleep tracking I guess, but I don’t wear my watch to sleep. To each their own though.

[@GH-ic4ll]

@@DayoAworunse Thanks for your response Dayo. Ok, I take it back; you didn't get free Apple products. This is going to come down to the personal preference of if you want an awesome smartwatch with some fitness feature or if you want a smart fitness tracker. You are invested in media and KZbin. It would make sense for someone invested in social media to have a device with more social and media capabilities. As you've already stated in the video, people are not buying the Apple Watch for it's fitness platform. I agree with that completely. For those of us who are invested in activities and fitness; some may try the Apple Watch as we have, but find it disappointing, again, as we have. I'm wearing both as I stated earlier, and my wife has gone back to just wearing her Versa 2. That's why I'm still looking around. We are iPhone users and it would seem logical to continue to invest into the ecosystem, but that doesn't appear to be an option for us now. I'm really hoping that Google Wears next release with the combined Fitbit and Tizen OS will produce a device with all of the Fitbit's tracking and community features, as well as , Tizen's more stable OS. From what I've read, it should, and that may be where we end up once released. I'll look for your review once it does.

Hi Dayo, I am also considering upgrading my FitBit Ionic to either a Sense, or to the latest Apple Watch. My biggest concern with changing to the Apple Watch is being able to convert my data that I have collected over the last four or five years from the FitBit ecosystem into the Apple Health ecosystem. Do you know if this can be done and, if so, how? Thanks!

[@Jampper]

Should be possible with Rungap app maybe

[@brendansardelic]

Thanks@@Jampper, I decided to buy the FitBit Sense as the third band I have purchased for my Ionic broke and the Sense was readily available while I would have had to wait for the much more expensive Apple Watch 6 (which was nearly four times the cost of the sense including the stainless steel band I would need!). I'll just wait until the band on my Sense breaks (I know it will in a couple of months as I am often offshore fishing and the salt destroys the bands) and then buy an Apple Watch next time.

[@Jampper]

@@brendansardelic I switched from Versa Lite to Apple Watch 5. I never use the always-on display as I thought I would, but it burns battery pretty quickly. I would recommend the SE which doesn't have always-on display but the screen turns on immediately when you flip your wrist. Even faster than Fitbit. My personal opinion is that 6 is not worth the extra money.
