Googles new Fitbit watch with a screen just leaked again
Photos of the next Fitbit device, which has a more traditional smartwatch display, just keep coming.
Google's new Fitbit device, tentatively named Fitbit Edge, has likely been seen multiple times, despite its official announcement being yet to be made. This observation is based on exclusive photos shared on Android Headlines, showcasing the device, which resembles Fitbit Air but features an oval smartwatch display. According to Android Headlines, the device is set to launch in October with a price tag of $149 to $199.
It is expected to support limited apps, be compatible with both Android and iOS, offer notifications, have a seven-day battery life, and include GPS functionality. The new watch will also come in the same colors as the Pixel 11 Pro phone: Canyon, Olive, Fog, and Obsidian.
Additional details suggest that the device will have sensors on the back for tracking health metrics and a long button along the side of the display. However, it remains uncertain whether this is the device's first appearance. Google seemed to showcase a similar watch in photos of its upcoming product lineup in August, which were promptly noticed by Reddit users. Those initial images were released directly by Google, though the company has not confirmed the details presented in the latest leak.
Should all these details prove accurate, the Fitbit Edge might offer a viable middle ground between the Fitbit Air and more expensive smartwatches, such as the Google Pixel Watch 5. If the October launch materializes as predicted, more information about the device is expected to emerge soon.
