I am seeing conflicting information on which fitbit products have gyroscope. According to the sensor list on the product page, only ionic has it, but there are numerous website albeit not fitbit (wired, arstechnica, etc...) which state that some others have it and some don't... The developer forums also imply this... Finally, when I contacted fitbit support via chat, they say that all the products have it.... Can someone shed some light on this?

Hi @Alch  your posts were merged so your responses could be in one place. Customer support has the latest information and knows more than the community. I'll ask a moderator to stop by to clarify this for you.

@MarreFitbit @Odyssey13 Many thanks for your quick replies and the attempt to answer the question.

However, the point is exactly that the manual that you reference *does not* list the gyroscope as one of the sensors for the Versa. It *does * for the Ionic. And if memory serves me right, it *does not* for Charge 3 or Charge 4. (Checking the manuals was one the of the first things I did to figure out the answer to this question.) And the statement of the service rep contacted via Fibit help chat contradicts the manuals and your statements above. So I hope you can see the reason for my confusion.
