Hi @Ronnie1234, good to see you in the community.

 

It all depends if you think the extra Sense features are worth the increased cost to you. Really the Sense is just a Versa 3 with a few added features. The most notable is the ECG sensor, EDA (to measure stress responses) and a dedicated external skin temperature sensor (the Versa 3 uses an internal sensor to measure skin temperature). Other than that they are very similar.

Hi, @Ronnie1234 , both Fitbits are similar in many basic ways.  They are both smart watches with ability to integrate with other apps, keep track of your activity, get messages, alerts, timers, etc on your wrist.

 

The Sense has a few more health oriented options such as AFib.

 

You might find this “quiz” from Fitbit will narrow down your choice:    https://www.fitbit.com/global/nl/products/find-your-fit.

I personally am enjoying the extra features of the Sense, but your needs might be different. 

If you have a look at the comparison and then still have some specific questions, please post again.  there is always someone here to help.

To add to what the others have said. If your primary goal is fitness, the Versa 3 is probably fine. If your primary goal is health tracking, then the Sense makes more sense.

Alta > Versa > Versa 2 > Sense

You might want to decide on what was bad on charge3 and what you would consider an upgrade.
Be careful since sense does not do everything that is advertised or they work in a weird way. Example SpO2 and temperature measurements only works after sleeping and using a specific clock face. If you are lucky you get a Sp02 number only 1hr after you are awake.  ECG only works in some countries, if you travel to other countries it will be forced uninstalled. You can read about all the other issues people are having on the forum here..

You might want to look at watches from other companies too.
