Google introduced the Fitbit Edge on Monday, a new fitness tracker priced at $179.99 that sits between the Fitbit Air and the Pixel Watch. The device pairs a slim band with an OLED display to show map directions, weather, and notifications. It includes built-in GPS that Google claims is 40 percent more accurate than prior generations, and sleep-stage detection improved by 15 percent.
The battery lasts up to seven days, and the hardware resists water up to 50 meters. The Edge supports over 50 exercise modes and automatically logs up to 100 activities by reading movement context. The wearable works with Google Health Coach to build weekly workout plans using fitness and health data, though users need a Google Health Premium subscription to access it.
It also features Google’s Health Guardian tool to spot health shifts over time, including indicators related to blood pressure and insulin resistance. Preorders are open now on the Google Store ahead of an October 27 store release. Google offers the device in Obsidian, Fog, Olive, and Canyon colors, alongside a Stephen Curry Special Edition priced at $219.99.
