The Fitbit Sense 2 is lighter and thinner than the original, and it’s a more attractive watch that sits more comfortably on the wrist as a result. The continuing cost of Fitbit Premium is $9.99/£7.99 a month or $79.99/£79.99 a year. It comes with a six-month membership to Fitbit Premium which unlocks extra features like the daily readiness score. It costs $299.95 in the US and £269.99 in the UK. The Fitbit Sense 2 was announced in August 2022 and went on sale the following month. While the health, activity and sleep tracking are good, the sports tracking on the Sense 2 was often inaccurate during my testing, and it’s hard to recommend compared with other Fitbits like the original Sense or the cheaper Fitbit Versa 4, let alone rivals like the Apple Watch or Garmin Venu 2 Plus. It’s a good health watch and fitness tracker, but it’s a poor smartwatch, lacking several features that are available on the original Fitbit Sense.

The Fitbit Sense 2 feels like an in-between fitness tracker, one that is essentially a placeholder in Fitbit’s range ahead of the launch of smartwatches that are more fully integrated with Google.
