It's unknown whether there will even be a Fitbit Sense 3. If there is, there are a few features we'd like to see on the wearable device.
The Fitbit Sense 2 is Fitbit ’s most advanced and expensive smartwatch. Its features include an electrocardiogram app, sleep monitoring, GPS, and heart rate monitoring. Additionally, it has exercise tracking, stress management tools, and a skin temperature sensor. The watch also features Google Maps and Google Wallet, among other things.
Related To resolve this issue, Google should consider including Wear OS in the next Fitbit Sense, thus enabling Play Store support. Alternatively, Google could bring back select third-party apps for the wearable device — these were removed from the Fitbit Sense 2. Unfortunately, in the EU, access to such apps will be removed from all Fitbit products by June 2024, which suggests that Google may be taking the wrong direction entirely.
Wi-Fi support Unlike the first Fitbit Sense, the Fitbit Sense 2 watch can only communicate with a supported smartphone through Bluetooth. Although the watch has Wi-Fi hardware, it is not available to be used. You guessed it: We want the Fitbit Sense 3 to have Wi-Fi support, which provides faster speeds and a longer range than Bluetooth. This was another strange downgrade from the first Fitbit Sense to the Sense 2, so if we ever get a Sense 3, hopefully, this is something Google can rectify.
New materials The Fitbit Sense 2 smartwatch is built with aluminum, which is also used in some versions of the Apple Watch and other smartwatches. Google may consider upgrading the material of the Fitbit Sense 3 to titanium for at least one version, but the cost might make this unfeasible. Nonetheless, it remains on this wish list.
A price change, in one direction or another The Fitbit Sense 2 is priced at $250, which is relatively high considering its limitations. The Fitbit Versa 4, on the other hand, is priced at $200, leaving a little room for a price adjustment on any new Fitbit Sense that Google might release, assuming it’s similar to the current version.
