It has the same 1.58-inch AMOLED display as the Versa 3, as well as the same resolution.

I also found both the display and the text on the display easy to read and navigate, even at a glance, no matter if I was jogging on a treadmill, riding my bike, or sitting at work. This is especially noticeable (or, more accurately, not noticeable) when I exercised, as it hardly felt like I had a wearable on at all. Overall, it has a thin, lightweight design that looks and feels minimal. The design of the Fitbit Versa 4 is nearly identical to the Versa models that came before it, featuring a square watch face with curved edges. The design of the Fitbit Versa 4 is nearly identical to that of the Versa 3, though it does now feature a single physical button on the side that can access some of the watch's features, as well as Amazon Alexa. While I found it to be somewhat of a well-made activity tracker, its shortcomings were apparent far too often. To get the full Versa 4 experience, I spent the better part of a month using it as my everyday wearable. Versa 3 owners don't benefit from an upgrade, and it'd be hard to convince any wearer of an Apple, Garmin, or Suunto watch to embrace a new ecosystem for something this lackluster. It's such stagnant innovation that also makes it hard to pin down who exactly benefits best from wearing one. What's more, the Versa 4 actually drops key features that made the Versa 3 great, including third-party app support and onboard music playback.

And while the Versa 3 is one of the best Fitbit devices you can buy, the fourth-gen does little to push the line forward is disappointing. It features the same lightweight, minimalist design of Versas past, as well as a diverse array of trackable activities, a nearly week-long battery, and an upgraded version of Fitbit's stress-management tools.īut even those positive aspects feed into the Versa 4's main sticking point: Much of what the watch does was lifted directly from the Versa 3. This puts the Versa 4 in a tough spot in Fitbit's lineup, even though it has some appeal. While the number four suggests a generational advancement over the Versa 3, the wearable is instead an almost-carbon copy that pales in comparison to the company's other offerings, like the Sense 2 or the Google Pixel Watch. If you're expecting the Fitbit Versa 4 to be one of the best fitness trackers, or even an upgrade over its predecessor, you'll likely be disappointed.
