SAVE $50: As of Aug. 11, the Fitbit Versa 4 smartwatch is on sale for $149.95 at Amazon instead of its usual $199.95. That’s 25% in savings and $30 cheaper than it was just last week.
The fitness tracker and smartwatch industry is a bit oversaturated these days, but Fitbit remains one of the top dogs. And when it comes to Fitbits, the Versa 4 is the one we recommend “to anyone in need of something functional, but also simple and affordable.”
While it’s not the most advanced smartwatch in the Fitbit lineup (that would be the Sense 2), it looks and feels good, has a massive selection of built-in fitness features, and comes at a relatively low price. As of Aug. 11, Fitbit Versa 4 is on sale for $149.95 — that’s 25% off its list price and $30 cheaper than it was just last week when we featured it.

What it lacks in widespread app access and ECG and stress sensors, it makes up for with its fitness features, design and usability upgrades over its predecessor (which we also loved), and its responsive touch screen. You’ll get heart rate tracking, sleep tracking, Sp02 monitoring, stress tracking, and a built-in GPS. Our reviewer noted that it’s not the most accurate GPS she’s used, but “if your aim is general fitness rather than long distance exercise with detailed tracking, it’s perfectly fine for casual use.” It’s also waterproof for swimming and can track basic swim metrics.
It’ll outlast the Apple Watch with five to six days of power and it can track an entire 10K with GPS without dying. Unfortunately for Apple users, you can’t reply to text directly from the watch — that feature is only available for Android users. But you still can get notifications and voice calls.
Ultimately, the Versa 4 is a pretty solid purchase at full price. At $50 off, it’s an even better value.
