If you find yourself in the shower trying to interact with it, it’s simply not going to end well. The singular exception is water on the screen, where the swipe/tap options become pretty unreliable (there is a water lock if you want to enable it). That means all interactions occur via swipe and tap of the screen itself. To begin, the Fitbit Inspire 3 has a touchscreen display, with no dedicated buttons. My account is not set up for the premium Fitbit subscription, it’s just using all the standard/free features.) (Preemptive note: Everything I show in this entire review is with a basic Fitbit account. – Tile integration has been removed (was in Inspire 2)ĭon’t worry, I’ll cover just about all of those things throughout this review. – Made it slightly slimmer than in years past (11.75mm vs 12.99mm on Inspire 2) – Added high & low heart rate notifications – Changed to color screen (previously monochrome) In this revision, the Inspire 3 shifts far closer to being the little sibling of the Charge 5 than in the past. The Fitbit Inspire 3 is perhaps the biggest change we’ve seen to the Inspire series since introduction. And of course, being a DCR supporter makes you awesome! What’s New: If you found this review useful, you can use the links at the bottom, or consider becoming a DCR Supporter which makes the site ad-free, while also getting access to a regular behind-the-scenes video series on all the reviews. They find out whether I hate or love something the exact same second you do. Of course, I’ll also dive into the areas that aren’t so awesome – like the frequent pushes to sign-up for Fitbit Premium, but I evaded, and this entire review is written without any access to the paid Fitbit Premium – merely to show you what that experience is actually like.īefore we get started, note that Fitbit sent over a media loaner Inspire 3 to test, though as usual, they get no say in this post, nor do they get to see anything prior. And in my using it, it does a surprisingly good job at that. The goal of the Inspire 3 isn’t to wow you with technological prowess, it’s to be a super lightweight activity tracker that shows you what you need without getting in the way. But, that’s sort of the point of having a long-standing reputable platform, combined with incremental hardware updates. Of course, with so many Fitbits over the years in relatively similar form factors, it can probably feel like this is ‘just another Fitbit’, and, to some degree, there’s some truth to that. That’s in addition to the Inspire 3 providing more data metrics, including new blood oxygen level (SpO2) sensing as well as new high/low heart rate notifications. The Inspire 3 is a substantial upgrade over years past, especially in the display department, as Fitbit has added a color screen as well as an always-on display option. While the higher-end Fitbit Sense and Versa line get all the attention, the reality is the new Fitbit Inspire 3 is likely outperforming its $99 price point.
