Without exaggerating too much let's say that Fitbit's plans for the smartwatch market were saved by Versa's very good sales. We're not sure if we're going to see another smartwatch coming from Fitbit this year, but we're definitely going to see other wearables.
As a matter of fact, the first product after the Fitbit Versa that's likely to be introduced on the market this fall has just been leaked out. A clear image of the unannounced Fitbit Charge 3 recently popped up online and from what we're seeing there are quite a few differences between the new model and the predecessor design-wise.
The form factor has been slightly changed so the Fitbit Charge 3 looks a bit more rectangular, while the side button has been removed completely. Various straps seem to come with the Fitbit Charge 3, but we expect at least two to be included in the sales package.
According to the leaker, the Fitbit Charge 3 will be showcased in late August / early September at IFA 2018 trade fair, but we're certain details about the intelligent fitness tracker will emerge in the next couple of weeks.
