The leader in global fitness technology, Fitbit, has just launched the new Fitbit Luxe, a refined and feature-packed high-end fitness tracker; let's go find out more!
Official Fitbit Luxe: High-end fitness tracker with a refined design
Let's start with the design, the Fitbit Luxe has a chic design that goes with any outfit. The slim profile, stainless steel case and comfortable strap make it perfect for any wardrobe. We then have a vibrant AMOLED color display that automatically adjusts the brightness based on the surrounding environment.
But as mentioned earlier, the features are the real highlight of this fitness tracker.
Starting from the “Active Zone Minutes” feature, which is used to count every minute during workouts by vibrating the wrist when entering the customized target heart rate zone.
There is 24/24 heart rate tracking which helps maximize training sessions, includes resting heart rate stats, monitors sleep stages, and better estimates calories burned.
The Luxe also tracks SpO2, the level of oxygen in the blood, to help us understand when there may be major changes in physical fitness or general well-being. You can view your average overnight SpO2 at your wrist with an SpO2 watch face or view your stats from the last week in the Fitbit app.
The Fitbit Luxe can connect your smartphone's GPS to see real-time pace and distance on your wrist during walking, jogging, hiking and biking tours and view a map of our effort after training. Plus, as every part of our day affects our goals, Luxe tracks steps, distance, and calories burned throughout the day.
The fitness tracker has a total of 20 training modes to get real-time stats during your workouts or you can let SmartTrack automatically recognize and record our exercises.
Of course, the Luxe is water resistant up to 50m, so you can take it into the pool and even automatically detect how long you swim.
For women, the Fitbit app can also log periods, log symptoms, track ovulation, and more.
As for the smart features that are not related to the sports / health side, the fitness tracker uses Google Fast Pair technology so that Android users can have an easy setup and reach their goals quickly.
The device supports the display of calls, text messages and notifications from the smartphone that can be displayed on the wrist very quickly.
There is also the "do not disturb" mode which is really useful when you want to mute the notifications of calls, text messages from smartphones during the day.
While thanks to the sleep mode it is possible to set a program to automatically disable smartphone notifications at night and stop turning on the screen so that you can detect sleep without interruption.
However, you can set a silent alarm on your wrist that will wake you up with a silent vibration for quieter mornings.
With the “Timer & Stopwatch” mode you get instant access to tools that make your life easier, such as a timer to cook healthy meals and a stopwatch to monitor your sets in the gym.
As for autonomy, however, the Fitbit Luxe can work up to 5 days without having to be recharged.
Finally, the fitness tracker comes with an extensive set of accessories, from a trendy bracelet designed by chic and casual jewelry brand Gorjana to braided straps that are comfortable enough for sleeping, so there's an accessory for every look.
For pricing, the Fitbit Luxe is now in pre-order at the starting price of € 149,95 for the Lunar White / Soft Gold Stainless Steel and Black / Graphite Stainless Steel and Orchid / Platinum Stainless Steel versions. While the Special Edition Gorjana Soft Gold Stainless Steel Parker Link Bracelet costs € 199,95
