Versa 2 interest

[NDN_Girl]

I would like to get a new Fitbit. My Charge 3 died and I wanted to upgrade. Would the Versa 2 be a good choice? Looking for some opinions from people who have one. Trying to weight pros and cons from the Iconic as well.

Hi @NDN_Girl, welcome to our Fitbit Community! I'm sorry to hear that your Charge 3 stopped turning on. Regarding your question, thank you for your interest in the Fitbit Versa 2, which is one of our newest watches.

@NDN_Girl - 

NDN as the stock ticker symbol for a discount retailer? Nah, couldn't be.

I had my Charge 3 "white screen" on me in January and replaced it with a Versa 2.

With the exception of bluetooth pairing issues that I had - repeat h-a-d - with it, it is a great device.

Highly customizable, with a screen that is a lot easier to read in bright daylight (three levels of brightness), a large amount of custom watch faces, exercise modes that allow for two user-defined fixed stats top and bottom with a middle section you can swipe through additional user defined stats during the exercise.

The user manual can be found here:

If you get one and have any issues with bluetooth pairing, syncing or the dynamic update of heart rate and steps, etc. in your mobile app's Today screen I would recommend two things:

1. Look at the board for your mobile app (iOS App, Android app or Windows 10 app) for tips for syncing and notifications, etc.
2. If that doesn't work, return the device for replacement. Do not wait for six months like I did, letting FitBit Customer Service string me along. I was lucky that Best Buy gave me an in-warranty replacement with no hassles and the replacement Versa 2 is working great.
