Fitbit's new Versa 3, Inspire 2 have minor changes, higher starting prices

Alongside its brand-new biometric tracking Sense smartwatch, Fitbit on Tuesday also unveiled updates to its Versa and Inspire devices, bringing new features, including onboard GPS and 10-day battery life–but there's a catch. Fitbit has eliminated both lines' low-end models, so where the Inspire previously started at $70 and the Versa 2 at $200, prices have been bumped to $100 and $230, respectively. Most notably, the Inspire 2 no longer has an option without a heart-rate sensor, so you get advanced fitness features and all-day tracking just like Fitbit's other devices. In fact, Fitbit will no longer sell a tracker that isn't equipped with a heart-rate monitor, so $100 is the cheapest adult Fitbit you can buy now. Also coming to the Inspire 2 are Active Zone Minutes, which tracks "time spent in the fat burn, cardio, or peak heart-rate zones" throughout the day, along with a brighter screen, haptic button, and "an enhanced stylish, slim design," which is practically identical to the original Inspire.
