Anyone got a Fitbit versa 3? Too big?

My Alta HR is dying and so I’ve been looking to replace it. Really tempted by the Fitbit versa3.... but it looks so big!!!
Does anyone have one and able to give me an opinion please? Is it like a brick or is it okay?

Thank you

I have one, I love it, and I’ve hated wearing watches all my life. It’s definitely big, but light and comfortable (though I’ve changed the strap to a canvas one, as the original Fitbit straps cause a reaction on me. I’ve got a couple of coloured leather ones too for coordinating with going out outfits (if they ever start to happen again Grin ). I like the size of the screen for reading messages, WhatsApp etc. Saves getting my phone out when on walks or if I’m busy.

I had Fitbits for the last 10 years or so, but annoyingly they never last. 2 years seems to be the lifespan at most before something you can't replace goes wrong. My most recent was the Ionic and that was pretty big.

Now I have a Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and as I bought the smallest one it looks a lot better than the Fitbit smart watches. I missed the Fitbit app at first but I got over that pretty quickly. I use Strava on my watch when exercising outside and the Samsung app for inside.

Mine is about 2.5 years old so on its last legs. I was looking to do extra year guarantee next time! Looked at the charge 4 but reviews are a bit iffy, love all the features on the versa 3 but just don’t want a massive square. I’ve just had another good look round the Fitbit website and actually they are all very manly! Big size faces and dark colours. They do a bright coral but not sure if I want that either!

I got one a few weeks ago and I love it! I was also worried it would be big after having a FitBit Charge before but I got used to it really quickly and it doesn't look big on. Very light too.

It's the first time I've had a watch with built in GPS and not having to carry my phone with me to track a run is so freeing!
