For a “rudimentary” activity tracker that’s not even official yet, let alone actually up for grabs, the Fitbit Charge 5 is sure in the news a lot, leaking for the third time already in all its glory.
Not so rudimentary after all
That’s right, you’ll be getting both ECG monitoring and EDA scanning for under two Benjamins, not to mention a nice little color display in lieu of the Charge 4’s greyscale touchscreen and an arguably sleeker design than ever before.
A potentially big weapon in Google’s wearable industry arsenal
In addition to all that stuff, the Charge 5 will apparently be able to produce something called a “Daily Readiness Score” and thus help you manage your fitness better by telling you when you should push your body and when it would be wiser to relax.
On top of everything, Fitbit will naturally cover all the wearable device bases as well with 24/7 heart rate tracking, a built-in GPS sensor, water resistance up to 50 meters deep, a grand total of 20 different exercise modes, automatic activity tracking, and of course, both Android and iOS support.
Previously leaked Fitbit Charge 5 renders
Obviously, although we don’t have an exact announcement or release date to share with you at the moment, we fully expect the Fitbit Charge 5 to go on sale by the end of the year. Maybe even by the end of the week considering how detailed (and polished) the newly leaked promo video looks.
