Design
The device is dustproof and water-resistant. Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water.
Resistance to sweat makes it ideal for use while doing sports.
Damage-resistant glass (such as Corning Gorilla Glass or Asahi Dragontrail Glass) is thin, lightweight, and can withstand high levels of force.
The ATM rating indicates how much water pressure a device can withstand. 3 ATM is one of the lowest ratings and means that the device can only withstand splashes of water, whereas 20 ATM is one of the highest ratings and means that the device can be used for snorkeling and water sports.
The size of the screen (measured diagonally).
Resolution is an essential indicator of a screen's image quality, representing the maximum amount of pixels that can be shown on the screen. The resolution is given as a compound value, comprised of horizontal and vertical pixels.
The type of technology used in the display.
The watch band is removable and can be replaced by any standard watch band of the correct size, allowing you to customise it to your liking.
You can operate the device easily, by pressing the screen with your fingers.
Sensors
GPS enables global positioning, useful in map, geo-tagging or navigation apps.
A heart rate monitor can help show your fitness levels, enabling you to calculate a suitable intensity of exercise.
Your blood oxygen level is a measurement how much oxygen is reaching your muscles. It is important because low levels mean that you will become easily fatigued during exercise. The more exercise you do, the better your blood oxygen levels will become.
This measures barometric air pressure. It can predict weather changes, for example a sudden drop in air pressure could mean a storm is coming. When calibrated correctly it can be used to determine altitude, which helps GPS devices to lock on quicker and with greater accuracy.
An accelerometer is a sensor used to measure the linear acceleration of a device. A common application is detecting when a device changes between vertical and horizontal positions.
A compass is useful for gaming, maps, and navigation software.
With a temperature sensor you can monitor changes in temperature to measure your exertion levels and avoid hyperthermia.
A cadence sensor measures the number of pedal revolutions per minute when you are cycling. It enables you to monitor how fast you are pedaling.
A gyroscope is a sensor that tracks the orientation of a device, more specifically by measuring the angular rotational velocity. Initially, they were built using a spinning rotor to detect changes in orientation, like twisting or rotation.
Activity tracking
With a route tracker you can add your route onto a map. It is helpful if you plan to do the same route again, or want to share it with your community.
It tracks how far you travel.
Measuring pace shows how much time it takes to travel one kilometer or one mile. For example, in running, a 4 minute kilometer would be a very good pace.
It can track your sleep, such as how long you sleep for and the quality.
A multi-sport mode allows you to easily switch between tracking different sports such as running, cycling, and swimming. This feature is ideal for those who need to change quickly between various activities (e.g., triathletes).
The device automatically detects when you start an activity such as jogging, saving you from entering it manually at a later time.
It can detect changes in elevation, such as when you are climbing stairs.
It tracks how many steps you take throughout the day, allowing you to see how active you have been.
Your sleep data is analysed to give you a report, available to view through the app or website. This allows you to see the quality of your sleep and to help you make improvements.
Connectivity
It is compatible with a range of iOS devices such as iPhones, iPads and the iPod Touch.
It is compatible with a range of Android devices such as smartphones and tablets.
The device can connect to Wi-Fi.
Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
Devices that use cellular technology can connect to mobile networks. Cellular networks have much wider signal coverage than Wi-Fi.
ANT+ is a wireless protocol similar to Bluetooth Smart, and is very power efficient. It is mainly used for fitness monitoring devices such as heart rate monitors and cadence sensors to connect to other devices (e.g., sports watches, smartphones, and cycling computers).
The Wi-Fi versions supported by the device.
NFC (near-field communication) allows a device to perform simple wireless transactions, such as mobile payments. Note: this feature may not be available in all markets.
Battery
Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.
With a longer battery life, you don’t have to worry about charging the device as often.
There is less chance that you will run out of battery during an adventure.
The time it takes to fully charge the battery.

A solar battery takes its energy from light, and stores it in a self-recharging battery which never needs to be changed.
The battery can be recharged and used over again.
The battery is removable and can be replaced by the user if broken.
Features
Heart rate variability (HRV) tracking measures fluctuations in the time between heart beats. These fluctuations can be an indication of health conditions (such as heart conditions or mental health issues). Note: This feature may not be available in all markets.
VO2 max capacity is a measurement of the amount of oxygen your body can use during physical exercise. A high VO2 max capacity indicates good fitness levels.
This measurement is your heart rate per minute when you're at rest, such as when you're relaxed, sitting, or lying down. For adults, this is typically between 60–100.
It can notify you when your resting heart rate is above or below the normal range.
This is based on various information, such as your previous workout, sleep quality, and stress levels. Taking everything into account, it will give you an idea of whether your body is ready for another workout or if you should focus on recovery.
Vibrating alerts have a variety of uses, such as interval training.
With a stopwatch you can time yourself.
The device has a feature that allows you to find your smartphone if you have misplaced it.
The device can wake you using vibration, so as not to disturb anyone else sleeping in the room.
App & Software
Your activity data is analysed to give you reports, available to view through the app or website. This allows you to see how active you have been and to help you make improvements.

A good watch with exceptional health features.

The details of health related data gathered by the Sense is really good, compared to many other watches out there. If you are health conscious and care less about third party apps and notifications but prefer to focus on health, heart, sleep, then this is the watch for you. I compared the Fitbit Sense with my wife's Apple Watch and I have to admit, the level of data & details provided by the Sense is unmatched. The Apple Watch really lacks behind in regards of data and detail level. My only issue with the Sense is that it has thick bezels around the display, it's too "thick" (probably because of the health related hardware) and lacks blood pressure.

Bought first in September. In 4 weeks the replaced with refurbished not new! It was garbage. I had to fight to return it and bought a new one at Xmas. It’s worse than the other 2. Battery life is probably the worst feature. I don’t use music, pay, or any features except fitness and Tex alerts. I am extremely lucky to get 36 hours. Their service is terrible. You can’t speak to a supervisor, they refuse. They email you back. The watch has difficulty syncing with the app…. Everyday. It takes 10 mins or fails to sync. Constant restarting app or phone. The tracking is terrible. If I run on treadmill in exercise treadmill mode for 5 I manage to climb 192 flights of stairs. I have a medically verified irregular heartbeat that had never once been picked up by the watch or the special ecg. This has been the worst purchase. Still have it because I have t de edited on garmin (my hubby loves) or apple.
