Google's wearable device lineup may be welcoming new members. Foreign media have recently exposed a new fitness bracelet called "Fitbit Edge". Different from the Fitbit Air, which was launched abroad in May this year and features a screen-less design, Fitbit Edge will add a screen and be closer to a traditional smart bracelet in use.

It is reported that Fitbit Edge is a fitness bracelet product, positioned between Fitbit Air and Pixel Watch 5, and is also regarded as the successor of the Fitbit Charge series. The current Fitbit Charge 6 was launched as early as 2023 and has not been updated for more than three years.

According to suspected Google retail channel marketing materials obtained by foreign media Android Headlines, Fitbit Edge uses an oval screen. The overall appearance continues the style of the Fitbit Charge series, but the lines are more rounded.

Fitbit Edge can directly view time, exercise and health data through the screen, and continues Fitbit's consistent fitness monitoring functions. It has automatic activity recognition, GPS and altimeter, can display mobile phone notifications, supports basic apps such as Google Maps and YouTube Music, and has a battery life of up to 7 days. In addition, Fitbit Edge not only supports Android phones, but is also compatible with iPhones.

In terms of color matching, Fitbit Edge is expected to echo the Pixel 11 series, such as sandstone pink, olive green, etc., and may be unveiled as soon as this month. The price is estimated to be between 149 and 199 US dollars, approximately NT$4,700 to 6,300 yuan. For reference, the Fitbit Charge 6 is currently priced at NT$5,200 on the Taiwan Google Store. However, even if Fitbit Edge is launched this month, it is still unknown whether Taiwan will introduce it simultaneously. After all, Fitbit Air has not yet been sold in Taiwan.
