Fitbit has revealed the existence of Charge 3 some time ago (more than a month ago) and many fans are waiting for more details. It happened today.

Charge 3 will go on sale next week, October 7, although pre-orders are now online. This will cost you $ 149.95, unless you want the special edition equipped with NFC technology, in which case you will need $ 20 more for the price of $ 169.95. For UK readers, the price is £ 129.99 and pre-orders have also started here.
For many Fitbit users, it's an exciting new. Here is what's new.

Touch screen and new design
The new charge 3 is completely different from the charge 2, especially because the new screen is high resolution and touch. Charge 2 had a screen that seemed to respond to all your contacts but cleverly used the accelerometer to create this effect – technically, it was sensitive to tapping rather than a touch screen.
Anyone who has ever used the pressure sensitive touch screens that preceded the capacitive screen on the iPhone will know that a suitable touch screen is what you want.
And now, the last charge has one. It's not a color screen or anything like that, but it has an improved appearance, with gray levels instead of just white LEDs on a black background, which looks smoother and more detailed.
And where the previous display was plastic, it's Gorilla Glass 3. Since the goal of a tracker is to encourage you to be active, this extra resistance to scratching and Damage will be welcome.
There is also an inductive button, that is to say a button that does not move but has the impression to do it thanks to a haptic feedback. Cared for.

Resistance to water
There was some resistance to the water before, but now this charge can actually be used for swimmers to follow their workouts. Oh yes, this model resists water up to a depth of 50 meters. If you want to dive so far, it now supports swim tracking.

Better battery life
Unlike smartwatches like the Apple Watch, Fitbit Charge trackers work again and again. And this time, the life of the battery has gone from six to seven days, which is a full week of charging. One of the reasons this is possible is that Charge 3 does not have a GPS on board, which is infamous for the life of the battery falling off a cliff.

Better heart rate monitoring
This is a big part of the trackers nowadays. After all, the Apple Watch Series 4 will soon offer the opportunity to measure a real ECG / EKG on your wrist. It's no wonder other followers need to help you better monitor your heart rate. And there is a SpO2 sensor that measures oxygen saturation levels, which also adds to the credibility of fitness here. Oh, it also automatically recognizes exercises such as running, swimming, elliptical exercises and records them when you forget to do it.

And sleep?
Glad you asked. Starting next month, the Fitbit Labs Sleep Score program will begin beta next month, giving participants a better assessment of sleep quality. I believe that sleep monitoring will be one of the largest areas of health monitoring growth in the months and years to come. I firmly believe that Apple, since the acquisition of Beddit more than a year ago, is getting closer to its own sleep tracking app. Competitors must therefore build their capacity as soon as possible. This beta program could be important. Apparently, he will even follow the respiratory disturbances that could indicate health problems such as sleep apnea.
