The Activity app lets you set and keep track of your daily movements and exercise goals, and challenge fellow Apple Watch owners to friendly fitness competitions.

The Apple Watch tracks your steps taken, distance traveled, and heart rate and syncs these metrics to your iPhone's built-in Health and Activity apps.

Winner: The Apple Watch has a nicer overall look and offers more customizability, but the one-size-fits-all nature of the Fitbit Versa is also really appealing, so this round is a tie. The Fitbit Versa is also made out aluminum, and comes with two bands - one large, and one small - made out of 'a flexible, durable material similar to that used in many sports watches.' The reason there are two bands is that Fitbit took a slightly different design approach than Apple instead of designing the same watch in different sizes at different prices, it stuck to one. The two included bands cover enough wrist sizes that the Versa should fit well right out of the box. While the band that comes with the Apple Watch is fine, several third parties have designed cheap, alternative bands that you can swap on and off with ease.

The watch available in two sizes - 38mm and 42mm - to accommodate different wrist sizes unfortunately the larger-sized watch is a fair bit more expensive. The Apple Watch and Fitbit Versa have a similar overall design, but there are a handful of key differences.Īpple uses an aluminum finish for its most basic watch, with a single-color fluoroelastomer (durable, synthetic rubber) band.
