The Versa 4 gets new sport modes, while the Inspire 3 gets a color screen.
yesterday, Fitbit officially announced what we all knew was coming: the Sense 2, the Versa 4, and the Inspire 3.

The new sensor enables continuous, all-day stress tracking that alerts you when your stress levels are getting too high.
In terms of software updates, Fitbit is introducing some new exercise modes, bringing the total up to 40. Those include options like HIIT, weightlifting, and dance. And while it’s not an entirely new feature, Fitbit Premium users can access
