Is it just using the green like all other Fitbit's or is it using the other colors as well? Or are the other colors for later features?

It's for a more accurate heart rate, they improved the technology and is said to be one of the most accurate heart rate sensors. It also has the SpO2 sensor. I'll try to update with a link for more info for you.

The optical HR sensor is totally new on the Fitbit Ionic, with the company shifting to a tricolor sensor platform (green, red, and infrared). They showed during a presentation some of the numerous designs they tested prior to finalizing the design of the Ionic, including a number of different sensor positions and patterns such as moving photo diodes and LED’s in different patterns and how many of each. They settled on three photo diodes and one LED set in the center.
