Survey says the Fitbit Edge’s biggest rival could be its own Google sibling
The call is coming from inside the house.
The Fitbit Edge, a new fitness tracker aimed at those seeking an affordable smartwatch alternative, has been met with mixed reactions. Positioned between the Pixel Watch and Fitbit Air lines, the device offers a budget-friendly option for consumers looking to upgrade their wearable tech. However, its popularity has sparked curiosity about potential rivals.
A recent poll revealed that Fitbit's own Air line stood out as the top alternative to the Edge, garnering 26% of the vote. The unobtrusive, screen-less design of the Air makes it an attractive choice for those who prefer a more discreet tracking solution. Coming in close behind is the Samsung Galaxy Fit 3, another 2024 launch that sports a 22.5% vote share.
Surprisingly, Google's Pixel Watch 5, despite its feature-rich offerings, only received 20.3% of the support. This places it behind the Fitbit Charge 6, a device that has been on the market for several years. The Fitbit Edge's closest rival, in terms of popularity, seems to be the Air line, with the Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 following closely behind.
