Not only can you get the new entry-level Apple Watch SE for £259, but the Garmin Forerunner 55 undercuts it considerably at £180.įurther competition comes from Fitbit itself. That’s not the only thing making the Fitbit Sense 2 a bit of a tough sell in these belt-tightening times.
However, in the two years since the Sense launched, its price has gradually dipped, and you can now pick one up for under £200. While the original Fitbit Sense retailed for £300 at launch, the Sense 2 comes in at £270.

Still, at launch, the Fitbit Sense 2 is a curiously empty product compared to its predecessor – never a good thing on a device with a three-figure price tag. Some of these things may come back via updates, and in isolation none of them is a deal breaker. Most bafflingly of all, Google Assistant – introduced for the original Sense – has been taken away, leaving us only with arch-rival Alexa. Perhaps because of this, the built-in Wi-Fi is disabled, which means firmware updates are going to be delivered painfully slowly via Bluetooth. Downloading third-party software via the App Gallery is no longer supported, you can’t use the internal storage for music and you can’t even control on-phone audio via music controls. Those are all good things, but bafflingly, as with the Versa 4, Fitbit has seen fit to take away a whole bunch of useful bits and pieces.
