Looking for these features in Fitbit Sense

[salilsurendran]

Hello,

   I was looking at buying a Fitbit Sense. I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and one of the biggest problems I have is that it has a very poor battery life. I had the following questions about Sense:

1. How responsive is it when I turn my wrist. One of the problems I have with my watch 3 is that when I turn  my wrist it doesn't always recognize it and doesn't turn the screen on and while I am running etc. it is a pain to have to touch it to turn it on

2. Does it have FitBit pay and does it work as good as other payment systems?

3. Does it have automatic activity tracking where it automatically recognizes that I am working out or running?

4. Do I need to be Fitbit Premium subscriber to use any of the basic functionality like heart rate monitoring, activity tracking etc.?

1. I find it very responsive

2. Yes, it uses Fitbit Pay, it works but very few payment systems adopts it, compared to other systems. More information here

3. Yes

4. No, you don't

Hi @salilsurendran

1.  Yes I find it responsive on the whole, though sometimes a wrist turn doesn't work, but usually it is great

2.  Yes it has Fitbit pay and that works really well for me. You can check  your bank on the supported banks list HERE 

3.  Yes it does auto recognise common activities, but not all. The ones it doesn't auto re organise you can manually start on the watch. Auto recognised activities are walk, run, swim, outdoor bike, elliptical, sports, aerobic activity.

4.  No you don't.
