Fitbit announces lifestyle smartwatch Versa 2, and Fitbit Premium in India

 

Fitbit today announced the availability of its new Fitbit Versa 2™ expanding the family of its best-selling smartwatch, Fitbit Versa™. With innovative sleep features like Sleep Score and Smart Wake to help you improve your sleep as an important component of overall health, Versa 2 is equipped with a swim-proof design and an on-device microphone. It brings more convenience to users with Spotify expanding music options for motivation.

The next generation of its best-selling smartwatch, Fitbit Versa 2 is now available in India for Rs 20,999 across Reliance Digital, Croma, Helios, Landmark and other major retailers offline and online on Amazon.in. Coupled with even faster performance, thousands of apps and clock faces and a brighter, crisper display with an optional always-on mode, Versa 2 is your 24/7 health and wellness companion – now with 6+ days battery life at the same approachable price as Versa.

Fitbit’s latest sleep features will allow users to not only better understand their sleep, but also to improve it:

• Sleep Score: Receive a nightly score in the Fitbit® app for better insight into your sleep quality. Your score is based on heart rate (sleeping and resting), restlessness, time awake and Sleep Stages.
• Smart wake: Coming soon to all Fitbit smartwatches, smart wake uses machine learning to wake you during an optimal time of your sleep cycle while in light or REM sleep, based on a pre-selected 30-minute interval, so you wake up feeling more refreshed.
• Sleep Mode: Simultaneously disable your screen display and silence notifications for a night free of disturbances. Sleep Mode can also be used anytime you don’t want to be interrupted, like during a workout or in a meeting.
• Estimated Oxygen Variation Graph: Coming soon, this graph will provide users with an estimate of the variability of oxygen levels in their bloodstream. The data is derived from a combination of the red and infrared sensors on the back of your device. Being aware of short-term variations in the oxygen levels in your bloodstream may indicate variations in your breathing during sleep.

Versa 2 is now available in India for Rs 20,999 in black with a carbon case, petal with a copper rose aluminum case, and stone with a mist grey case; with accessories ranging from Rs 2,999 to Rs 3,499.
