Half-baked smartwatch features
Managing music is a nightmare
Very big if you have small wrists
It does not look like a smartwatch that costs $300. Fit is a little strange because of the convex bottom
Small and rectangular with low resolution
Uses a nonstandard connector
And the stock band isn't very comfortable. The buckle also does not lay flat
Buggy sync process
Lack of apps
No workout audio cues
Music interfacing is flaky
Functionality as a smartwatch is severely limited
Nonexercise apps don't really do much
As pricey as an Apple Watch
Limited 3rd party support
Fitbit Pay not yet active in UK
Slow interface
Needs more third-party apps
Loading music is cumbersome
Notifications can't be interacted with

Lack of apps is the biggest killer for the Ionic for me at least. It has promise though, with a more robust app catalogue it's got a bright future as it's quite a smooth device to navigate and use. Fitbit's health and fitness hardware and software are top...

Highly usable fitness tracking capabilities, wonderfully clear display, strong app tracking performance, music playing
Music loading very creaky and slow, app needs work to remove final bugs
The Fitbit Ionic is a real smart watch, and a no-compromise tracker band that's better than Fitbit's previous models, especially in the ability to see what's going on more easily than previously.Tags FitBitFitness bandSmart watchPrevious article Review: B...
