I recently had the same problem. My Versa went dark while at Great America when I tried to reboot via the screen. It would not come back on. I had over 50% of my battery left but decided I would try connecting to my charger when I got home.
Nothing happened.
I called Fitbit customer service and said I was basically out of luck because my watch was 365 and 1/2 days old.
I found a cure in the community that said hold all three buttons until the logo reappeared. That took 15 seconds (as in my case) or as long as 3 minutes. The point is that it worked.
I contacted the same person at Fitbit that I connected to originally and he said that they are not allowed to give solutions from the wild.
I will skip saying what I really think about that response but try it. I have had zero issues since then but would it do it again if it ever reappears. BTW - It occurred two days after I performed the system update.
Good luck

The battery on mine also won't charge. I updated the firmware yesterday as the app kept telling me too. After that, it wouldn't take another charge. I've been on the chat with customer service doing trouble shooting, and there suggestion is that it is out of warranty and that I need to buy another one.

I also tried the 3 button thing. However, my battery says it is at 0% and it won't take a charge at all. Since the reset buttons are not accessible while it is being charged (unlike some previous fitbit models I've had), there is no way to reset the device when the battery is at 0%.

This happened to mine a 2 days ago but I left it charging overnight. Today it died and it's been on the charger for more than 30 min and still wont turn on 🥺 I have had it for about a year and a half. Hopefully this trick works for me!!🤞🏼
Edit: This turned on my versa! Hopefully it continues to work! I even sent my husband to go buy me a charging dock in case this one messed up!!

Thanks for shared your experience. I had the same issue, after read your comment. I hold the 3 buttons for 20 seconds and works. Now my watch is on, but 50% less battery than yesterday, and shows yesterday date. I synced and is working. Also Is charging. Let's see how works the rest of the day. Thanks!!!

Thank you! Thank you!
This turned on my versa after it suddenly wouldn't restart. I'm so glad I clicked on your post.
Mine turned back using this trick. Much appreciated!

Hi, my Fitbit Versa 2 also died, and I am trying everything I can to reset it. I contacted customer support, but no luck (other than to send it back for a replacement). Can you tell me what three buttons you are referring to? I think mine only has one. Thank you!
