This appears to be the Fitbit Charge 3 and, if it is, several big changes are in the works for Fitbit premier fitness tracker band.The leak comes from Android Authority which points to the changes.
First, the device has a full touchscreen rather than a clunky quasi-touchscreen like the Charge 2.
From the touchscreen, users can navigate the device and even reply to notifications and messages.
Second, the Charge 3 will be swim-proof to 50 meters.
Finally, and this is a bad one, the Charge 3 will not have GPS built-in meaning users will have to bring a smartphone along for a run if they want GPS data.Price and availability was not reveled but chances are the device will hit the stores in the coming weeks ahead of the holidays.This is a big change for Fitbit.
If the above leak is correct on all points, Fitbit is pushing the Charge 3 into smartwatch territory.
The drop of GPS is regrettable but the company probably has data showing a minority of wearers use the feature.
With a full touchscreen, and a notification reply function, the Charge 3 is gaining a lot of functionality for its size.
