Advice before buying [Versa Special Edition] in regards to Deezer/ Smart Notifications

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

Hi to everyone,

 

I'm thinking about getting a Versa (SE). Before I'll make my decision, I have a few questions:

 

1. Is the sync time for Deezer music still that bad (very bad overall reviews on yt/online)? How long does it take to transfer something like 100 songs?

 

2. Are the smart notifications working (S9+ is my smartphone)? Are there any delays, let's say for incoming WhatsApp manages?

 

Thanks in advance for every "real life" feedback here.

Hello @Manuel86001 and welcome to the forums.  A great place to come for advice.  Except, in my case, I can't help you with either of your questions.  But I do have some important advice before you buy the Versa SE.  Make sure your bank is on the Fitbit Pay Bank and Transit List.  Fitbit Pay has been out since the release of the Ionic.  My bank is still not on the list.  Don't waste your money if you can't use the feature.

 

If your bank is not on the list, get the Versa, not the Versa SE, if you get the help you need.

Deezer will take a while top sync the songs,  but it syncs through the wifi while the phone is charging.  This does not need to be done in one setting,  and will simply pause when removed from the charger to be continued next time the Versa is placed on its charger.  What had been synced will be able to be listened to. 

 

Do a quick search of this board and the ionic with your headphone models. 

Some don't want to connect up and Fitbit is aware and looking into it. 

 

Is this the Galaxy S9 or the S9, much galaxy S9 is really working very smoothly. 

 

What's app im not familiar with,  but if there is a delay it would be only a few seconds. Messaging usually shows up on three tracker before the phone notifies me. 

Rarely but do occasionally see a delay of 5-10 seconds with the call notification

 

I too am happy to see someone research rather than assume. Cat Happy

Just a quick reply (in case someone is thinking about buying the device).

 

Whatsapp notifications are pretty quick (if not without any delay).

Sync time for Deezer music is not fast (but not as bad as I thought it would be). I synced 140 tracks witch took about an hour (without it charging) and 100 Tracks in (while charging) in about half an hour. Thats good enough for me.

Fitbit pay is also working fine!
