I think in the desire to offer more features, and have better sales, they have added newer products they feel are placed better in the broader market. I am a big fan of the fitbit one myself. It was nice to have the floors, and rechargeable battery. I finally ended up getting the charge 3 as a replacement and I am really enjoying the heart rate monitoring. I always wanted a heart rate monitor for my treadmill workouts. Some people don't like the wrist band style, though, so if that was an important feature, I don't know there is anything as compact as the one.
