‘Fitbit Edge’ leaks as Google’s next fitness tracker with ‘Apps’ & ‘Notifications’
Key Points:
- Google is launching a new wearable called the "Fitbit Edge," featuring a bulbous screen that extends closer to the perimeter than previous Fitbit trackers, with a display resembling an adjusted Pixel Watch face.
- The device includes heart rate, step count, workout start complications, and metal strips on the sides likely for ECG readings, following the design style of the Fitbit Charge 6.
- The Fitbit Edge uses a sensor stack similar to the Fitbit Air and may share the same magnetic charger, with band removal mechanisms on both the top and bottom.
- Available strap colors include Canyon, Obsidian, and Olive, reminiscent of the Pixel 11 Pro, and the device supports Bluetooth connectivity but lacks Wi-Fi.
- The Fitbit Edge offers up to 7 days of battery life, supports both Android and iOS, and includes apps such as Google Maps, media and music controls, and Find My Phone.
