What’s up everybody it’s your first time here make videos on the best tech that helps improve your health and your wellness and of course there’s other tech that I think you would be happy with so if you haven’t already go ahead and subscribe so today we’re had be going over the Fitbit Bursa - yes I did purchase the new Fitbit Versa - I bought the Apple watch series for around November of last year and it’s been a great I guess you could say a great SmartWatch it tells the time of course but then also has a lot of good features it connects really well with all my devices or I could see messages I can answer messages I could see my reminders see sports game updates view pictures there’s a lot of things I can do with this Apple watch however there is one thing missing that I just feel like Apple hasn’t done right and that’s the fitness features as somebody who is a health coach and loves Fitness I feel like a SmartWatch if it’s on your wrist one of the main functions that it should do is be a really robust fitness device and don’t get me wrong Apple has done a great job with like that tivity rings I think tracking the different type of workouts you can do those are great don’t get me wrong they made a lot of strides since the series one however I don’t think they’ve done it as well as Fitbit so I wanted to kind of give you some of the main reasons why I’m going with the Fitbit Versa over the Apple watch series 5 when it comes to getting a fitness SmartWatch so for the first reason its battery life this Apple watch can maybe last me about a day and a half if I’m generous with it if that’s with it not being on for G I’m not taking calls on it that much I’m literally using it to just kind of check it to you notifications throughout the day the Fitbit Versa - actually does five days of battery which is amazing five days of battery is really really good that means you’ll have to charge it really for the whole workweek and to me that’s something really important and to that fact about the battery leads - really I think one of the main reasons why I want to go with a Fitbit versa - is the sleep tracking and Fitbit verse or two actually has a thing called the sleep score which will basically kind of take the records of how you’re sleeping throughout the week and give you an overall sleep score of how you can improve to me that is amazing in order to track my sleep on the Apple watch I had a download I had to pay that three or four bucks to buy a sleeping app and then once I bought the app for my watch I usually have to put my my Apple watch on the charger around like 8:00 p.m. and then try to remind myself if I can’t even remind myself to put the watch on before I go to sleep and they don’t track it for me it’s not native to the Apple watch which kind of blows my mind but sleeping is such a huge part when it comes to health wellness your energy how productive you are and to be able to track that and see how you can improve it is literally game-changing that leads me to the third point which is all that sweet tracking data leads into the Fitbit the Fitbit app is literally one of the best apps that you can use it’s the user interface of the Fitbit app is amazing I love it try to think of some apps that I would really like to use it and it face up and really Fitbit comes to mind like I just love how that has the graphs you has your whole profile on one area it’s just very that’s very user friendly and I feel like I understand it a lot better and going through it’s very smooth I just really like the Fitbit app itself compared to you know a lot of the other apps that I have on my phone so compared to the Apple watch from a native perspective looking at the health area that’s kind of confusing has a lot of numbers everywhere it’s a lot of different like graphs and different things but it’s not as like user intuitive if that makes sense now the last and final reason why I really wanted to get the Versa to over the series 5 is because they made a lot more extra features and integrations with the Fitbit verse or two the first thing being Amazon Alexa where does this air Harry the Amazon Alexa built-in voice so I haven’t actually I have an Alexa dot that I’m gonna do a review on but this can connect with Alexa which is really really cool when it comes to doing any type of voice activated stuff so I don’t know exactly the features of it but I think it is cool how they do have it in there and then of course they also have a Spotify integration so I’m guessing you can download playlists from there and then the last thing the last extra feature I really am looking forward to is the fitbit premium coaching app or subscription again as a health coach it’s great to have all this data right you get to see how much you sleep you get to see you could track how much you eat how much you work out how many calories you burn how many steps you took but all of that doesn’t matter unless you know what to do with it right it’s great to have all that information but you have no clue what to do with it how does it serve you that’s like a doctor telling you well you’re X Y Z pounds your blood is this it’s like okay great what does that mean I need to do to change it and that’s what I’m excited about the fitbit premium coaching subscription it’s $10 a month so I’m gonna try to try it out for maybe a month or two and do a review on the coaching premium app and see if it’s something that is helpful per you reaching whether it’s weight loss goals gaining muscle all that jazz so I’m super excited I didn’t want to go ahead and do a quick unboxing for you so you guys can see what is in the box what comes what comes in it and yeah let’s go ahead and a pack this puppy open pretty cool instructions okay looks like you have a longer band the watch and this just looks like it’s like the same ones as always where you just kind of sit it into the charger and then you plug it into the USB here are the Fitbit verse or two in the Apple watch size comparison they really are about the same size to be completely honest I would say the verse of two is maybe a little bit more wider and a little bit more rectangle shape and the Apple watch is a little bit more of a square shape but if I was to put it on feels good feels nice and light Wow feels super smooth I kind of feel like I mean it’s similar to the Apple watch but it’s just very very seamless I love it like that I know they say you typically are supposed to like charge it before you turn it on turn it on anyway Wow the screens a lot brighter so it screams a lot brighter definitely seems like I don’t have to kind of go through the whole Fitbit startup feature which I think might take a little bit but yeah like I said this is something that I’m excited to dive back into I do think I’m gonna miss a lot of the Apple watch features that I currently have again it’s just when you have an Apple product all the Apple products work better and the more integrated in it so I do think it’s gonna be an overall bad experience with the Apple watch but I’m excited from the fitness feature side to have this Fitbit and I’m actually got a workout actually after this video and tell you guys exactly how I like it from a fitness perspective and hopefully give you guys a review in 30 days so let’s go ahead and see if this app is good they’re basically saying they have a new sleek look how you burn for the day track your exercise - how many get pounds of gained water logging your food and that’s all under the today tab discover tab stats got it programs challenges workouts this right here is what I think people need they need to find a way to see if they’re on a fitness journey or try be healthier turn lose weight trying to gain muscle they need something to help keep them accountable and I think an app is an amazing way to do it so yeah I’m super excited to do a 30-day review which will be coming up and their days and yeah
