    Intro:
    Over the last weeks I have extensively tested the new Fitbit Sense 2 for its sports and health tracking performance. And in this video we will take a comprehensive look at the heart rate accuracy, sleep tracking performance, GPS tracking and step counting accuracy of this brand new watch from Fitbit. As always, my videos are not about listing the specs for you, but instead I will focus on independent and unbiased performance testing of this top of the line Fitbit Watch.
    Like I said, I do not want to list the specs for you, but before getting to the test results, I do want to make a few short remarks. First of all, Fitbit is now owned by Google; so in many ways this is now also a Google product, and in a way competing directly with the Google Pixel Watch. However, I personally did not feel that anything major changed in the way the Fitbit app or the Fitbit Sense 2 operate since Google bought Fitbit. Second, Fitbit has had a subscription service for a while now, where you only get certain statistics after you pay for this subscription. I am not a fan of this model, though this does seem to be where a lot of companies are heading. However, basically everything I will be discussing in this video is available in the free version of the app. Now, without further ado, let’s get to the test results. And, I want to start off with the heart rate tracking accuracy, since this is one of the most important features for most people buying a health tracker. I actually tested this during a total of 48 workout sessions.
    Now, I should note that I didn’t test all functionalities of the Fitbit Sense 2 yet. I did not test the temperature sensor, electrodermal activity or EDA sensor and ECG sensor, mostly because these are very difficult to actually test at the moment. In terms of usefulness, these are probably also some of the least important features. The temperature trends could be useful for women who want to track their cycle, and for anyone who wants to check for an elevated body temperature throughout the night. I personally think the EDA sensor is more of a gimmick still, and not that useful for most people.

    Great video. I also have a Polar H10 I tested my Sense 2 against, and I can confirm your results re the gross inaccuracy of the Sense 2 unless you are motionless. What's really disappointing is that plain HR should not be hard to capture from just a single sampling location unlike HRV which requires multiple sampling locations. So if plain HR is so inaccurate, I can only expect the other measurements (except O2 saturation) are pure fiction. Put my return in the mail 2 days ago. I know the inner workings of Google well, and there will never be a firmware update that adds the missing but advertised features as long as the new Pixel Watch exists.

    Thank you for this video! My Charge 4 recently broke, so i purchased a Sense 2 to replace it. Since I am a Peloton App user and my fitbit charge 4 would not connect to the fitbit app, i previously purchased a Scosche 24 so that i would generate a "strive score " on the Peloton app. I noted that the charge 4 (worn on my wrist) and the Scosche 24 (worn on opposite arm, above elbow) always generated same/close heart rate data. However, today when i used my sense 2 simultaneously with the Scosche, the Sense 2 was far off (on the low side).

  • @EliasAlucard
    @EliasAlucard Год назад +9

    Thanks for the review! I bought the Sense 2 recently, mostly because Fitbit trackers have had pretty good sleep tracking in your other reviews. I think Google can significantly improve the sleep tracking with an algorithm update for the Sense 2, and I hope they do if they watch your review. It's good to see that the Sense 2 is comparable with Whoop 3 and 4, and I've stopped using both Whoop 3 and 4 (I upgraded to Whoop 4 when it was new, but ditched it recently when I switched to Sense 2, as Whoop is pretty useless for anything other than sleep tracking, and since Sense 2 has about equally good sleep tracking as the Whoop 4, I see no reason to pay $30 per month when I get more and better data with the Sense 2). I hope the Sense 3 gets much better sleep tracking, and really, the Sense 2 could perform equally to the Apple watches with a firmware update. I also use the Garmin fenix 7X Sapphire Solar, and now I know better what I should sync to Google Fit between the two. Keep up the good work man!

    Thanks for this. I specifically went for the Sense 2 vs the Pixel watch due to battery time. 😊I do find the EDA is fairly accurate at noting my stress/frustration times so would love to see at least an overview on this piece at some point in the future as it was the main reason I upgraded to the Sense 2 vs going with the Charge 5. As an android user- the two ecosystems that are robust would be Fitbit and Garmin. And while I would be fine for either of those- it seems that each has issues with various aspects for accuracy.

    • @tonywhite5883
      @tonywhite5883 Год назад +9

      Interesting and I agree but I thought I'd add my findings .. I have Versa 2, though have had a brace of older Fitbits over time as well as a Garmin Forerunner now. Also Apple Watch SE (original) .. I know .. a bit of a tart!
      From my personal experience and needs I find:
      Fitbit is great / best for general sleep and general wellness and the app is great though I refuse to pay for premium.
      Apple: WTF .. why 3 apps dudes - watch app then health app then fitness app .. come on .. this is just a mess? For fitness tracking (for me it's walking, running and some pool swimming) it's OK and better than Fitbit. For sleep .. come on .. tell the watch your sleep times? Really? Yeah the absolute accuracy for heart is great but it is general consistence of readings which for me is more important - to track progress though others may have a different view here. Great display and integrates very well with iPhone but laughable battery even with the new low power mode.
      Garmin: Poor display, but outdoors it is exceptional the post activity fitness tracking and suggestions for recovery etc is great. Excellent battery - we are talking more than a week with daily exercise GPS tracking and worn at night. Really poor sleep tracking though, but you don't have to tell it when you are about to sleep so there is that I guess. Finally the app is great and no pay wall.
      Fitbit & Garmin apps let you use you stuff on iOS & Android and swap over and still retain all your data. Apple? Well, it's Apple but I think you can export stuff to Strava???
      So I guess this all comes down to what is important to you. For me right now though what is important is my coffee!

  • @swagatgaikwad9463
    @swagatgaikwad9463 Год назад +2

    Used Fitbit Charge 3 for 4 years, pre-ordered Versa 4 and returned within 2 weeks in October this year - shockingly inaccurate HR tracking (very low HR when I'm clearly out of breath) during even the simplest exercises for a wrist-based tracker (indoor cycling, treadmill, elliptical). Forget about weight training. Bought Garmin Venu 2 after that and its my first Garmin - my god Garmin is miles ahead of Fitbit and Venu 2 is extremely accurate - can't believe why I didn'tget a Garmin earlier - almost 1-5 bpm from the equipment's HR monitor. Battery life of Venu 2 is superb and app is amazing. Would not recommend any Fitbit, its nowhere close to what other companies are doing.

    Great video, as always. I had been a dedicated Fitbit user since the Charge4, along with subsequent Charge 5, and Versa 3. I did try the Sense 2 for 1 month before returning it for a refund. The accuracy was just so poor, and the long battery life did not balance that out enough for me to keep it. I moved on to the Apple Watch SE 2022 and am very happy both with the accuracy, the sleep tracking and the exercise tracking. The 2 latter things are much improved with Apple's newest updates. I wouldn't have known to try this switch to a new brand without your channel, so thank you!

    • @borisgurevich5504
      @borisgurevich5504 Год назад +1

      I have also been using fitbit, namely charge 2, for a long time, and wanted to replace it with charge 5 or one of the fitbit watches. But I am also leaning towards Apple Watch SE. Fitbit used to have the best sleep tracking but it appears to have been surpassed by apple watches. So the only advantages of fitbit are longer battery life and of course price, but with the obscene subscription model this goes out the window. Getting ready for Apple Watch SE and happy to see how good it performs in Rob's tests. Yes it is pricey but it has excellent accuracy in all departments (heart rate, steps, sleep) and by far the best iPhone integration.

      How is the app on apple, is it just this apple health? I feel that Fitbit have a very good overall app for suggestions and calculating things together to measure data and give you tips on how to improve. Does apple watch have any of that?

    • @5ervalkat192
      @5ervalkat192 Год назад

      @@xPowerShotx Not really. Apple excels in providing accurate data, which I like. But they do not offer much in the way of suggestions or interpretations. Apple Watches accept a bazillion third party apps such as Workoutdoors, Athlytic, and Heartwatch , etc) which try to fill that gap. But it’s irritating to pay extra for third party apps when Apple could offer interpretation themselves. I still do not regret my choice.

    My versa 2 (got it Nov 2020) was usually spot on with my hr and was accurate with high hr. I wanted the ecg option for more heart health features, which is why I thought I was upgrading to the sense 2. 😢

    Hi Rob, I have some heart problems and would really appreciate your help with a recommendation. I have seen many or your excellent videos! Would you please give me your top recommendation for an Android watch that has excellent heart monitor function PLUS has at least very good ECG function? This would be GREATLY appreciated!! Thank you very much in advance!

    I have a sense 1 and my heart beat can be beating at 180bpm and the fitbit says 105bpm it doesn't want to pick up my heart beat sometimes after while it starts picking up my heart, and starts being more accurate. It seems like software problem to me.

    I had the same thing with the Sense 1, it is what drove me to the Apple Watch after being a Fitbit user for like a decade! - it was showing shockingly inaccurate results and the battery life was barely 2 days.

    • @qwertimus
      @qwertimus Год назад +2

      Genuinely same. With the Pixel Watch & Sense 2 being so inaccurate, and after being with Fitbit for 8 years, I switched to all-in on Apple Watch (& iPhone from Android).
      I was really hoping either Galaxy Watch 5 or Pixel Watch would finally compete against AW, but nope.

    • @micahjohnson9184

      @@qwertimus It depends on what you want. It's pretty good if you want sleep tracking I have the inspire 2 which Rob is really positive about 2 weeks of battery life and great sleep tracking and the pixel watch isn't "really bad" it has pretty good heart rate tracking. It's just the price point and fitbit subscription but if that's not good enough I'm sure we could pair a polar h10 chest strap to it. A lot of us get caught up in thinking just because one thing is better the other is bad. But for an all in one tracker and smart watch Apple watch is great. How are you enjoying the apple ecosystem? I'm mainly an Android guy but I'm curious to know because I might give it a try.

      @@dragonemp727 True. I always bought Fitbit because I hated the Apple Watch battery life, still do. But the Sense 1 battery was 2 days with the always on display, Apple Watch was 1.5 days but for a literally night and day experience, it's like going from a rusty old bicycle into a Lamborghini, so that was a no brainer.
      With this said, that's the Sense, the Fitbit Inspire 2 is still a great device with 2 weeks battery, if only it was more accurate.

    Now it makes "sense" why a $300 Sense 2 has come down to $200 so quickly. Heart rate accuracy on the first test is R=0.87...while a $40 Mi Band 7 gets R=0.92...and its battery lasts for 7-10 days! The battery life on the new Pixel Watch is measured in hours!

      No it's not. I also have a Polar H10 and the sense 2 accuracy is as bad as his testing indicates. He essentially confirmed what I was seeing. The more vigorous the exercise, the greater the deviation of the sense 2 from reality. I've already returned mine.

      @@steveweinberg462 That forum is heavily censored by the mods in a sad attempt to make the Sense2 seem like an accurate fitness tracker and 'smart' watch. The sad part is that virtually every new post is either an obvious shill or an actual complaint about missing or inaccurate apps causing the Sense2 to seem horrible regardless. I deleted my account after I shared the observation that, given the $300 many people were paying for a fitness company's "flagship product" with such a high rate of missing or grossly inaccurate features, Google/Fitbit could be at risk of a class action suit for fraud in dumping excessive inventory of a defective product - which was promptly deleted. A general search of Sense2 reviews now brings up many shills that make the $300 list price seem like a bargain.
