Taking a look at the Fitbit Sense's display, it's simply fantastic.

It offers ample haptic feedback and feels good to use, but I occasionally found myself pressing on the area and not getting any response. Rather than giving you a legit button, Fitbit opted for a small divet on the side that vibrates when you press it. The only design aspect I'm not all that happy with is the faux side button that's used for going to the Sense's home screen and accessing app shortcuts. Coming from a 44mm Apple Watch Series 4, the Sense is substantially more compact and enjoyable to wear for long stretches at a time. The metal/glass construction looks fantastic, it's super lightweight, and it fits on my tiny wrists without any problems at all. This is the best-designed Fitbit smartwatch yet.Īs for the Sense itself, it's mostly a home-run. I still wish there was support for Qi wireless charging for a more universal charging option, but this is a marked improvement that I'm thrilled to see. Fitbit Sense ditches that for a magnetic charger that's considerably smaller and much easier to use. All of the past Versa watches have used a clunky cradle that you had to open and close to nestle the watch into, and while it worked well enough, it was never a great design. Fitbit also overhauled the charging accessory for the Sense.
