Needing new Fitbit

[kiral9]

My Fitbit Charge 2 just died (screen and ribbon wire detached) after having it for 10 years. Wondering if anyone has suggestions on which Fitbit to buy. I loved that the steps tracking was accurate and that it had a timer (Im an RN and used it to time IV pushes). I prefer it to be less that $200.

@kiral9   I moved your post to the Get Moving forum, the best available fit for your question.

@kiral9 if I were in the market right now, I'd be looking very hard at this Pixel Watch 3. It's currently $209, so slightly above your price limit, and it's not compatible with iPhone, so that may not work for you. This is a very nice watch, but it needs to be charged every day. I have no idea how long that price is going to last. 

Among the current Fitbit devices, I would suggest the Versa 4, if you want more smartwatch features, or the Charge 6, if you want a tracker that is similar to your Charge 2. Both of these have much better battery life than a Pixel Watch. In the past, Fitbits have gone on sale in early to mid-February. If you can wait until then, you may be able to get a better price. 

Google has confirmed that there will be new Fitbit hardware released this year. I don't know what that is yet, but it will be a tracker, not a smartwatch. It may be worth waiting until more information about that is available.
