It gives a hearty buzz when you receive a notification, have been still for too long, or reach a milestone like hitting 10,000 steps a day.įitbit says the Luxe has five days’ worth of battery power, but I got about six and a half from a full charge. Like the others, you can connect the Luxe with your phone to receive calendar alerts and text messages (though you cannot reply to them from the device), and the Luxe can use the phone’s GPS functionality to measure mileage of outdoor walks, runs, and bike rides. The Luxe lacks the Charge 4’s built-in GPS, temperature sensor, NFC (near field communication, which lets you use the watch for contactless payment at places where it’s accepted), and altimeter (a function that measures altitude and translates to floor climbed in the Fitbit universe). With the Luxe, you get an optical heart rate monitor, sensors for oxygen saturation (SpO2) monitoring used mainly in sleep tracking, automatic activity tracking, water resistance up to 50 meters, and a memory that stores heart rate data for seven days and daily totals for 30 days-all features found in the Charge 4 and upgrades to the Inspire 2, which only does automatic activity tracking and heart rate monitoring.
You can get the standard Luxe (left) or special edition (right).įeature-wise, the Luxe blends the slim profile of Fitbit’s entry-level Inspire 2 and many of the advanced tracking features of the top-of-the-line Charge 4.
What makes the Luxe different from other Fitbits? The device has a one-year limited warranty. Both the standard and special edition come with an optional six-month free trial of Fitbit Premium, which provides deeper health and wellness insights and workout videos, though you’ll have to give a credit card number at signup, so you’ll be charged $9.99 a month for continued access unless you cancel in time. The special edition costs $199.95 and includes a charging cable, the classic wristbands, and a stainless steel link band. The standard Luxe retails for $149.99 and comes with a charging cable and two sizes of its stock plastic wristband, in three color options.
You can change the style of its digital watch face (free on the Fitbit app) and wristband (sold separately in designs like a leather double wrap and stainless steel mesh). Its main distinction is its look-sleek, petite, and meant to blend in with or complement whatever you’re wearing, instead of making you stand out as someone dedicated to purely functional fitness. The Luxe is an all-new Fitbit, not an update to its previous models. The Luxe is a slim, sleek fitness tracker.
