Google’s new Fitbit Edge solves my biggest gripe with the Pixel Watch

ZDNET’s key takeaways

Google just unveiled the $180 Fitbit Edge, a smart watch with a slim display.

It’s a new product, but it resembles Google’s own Fitbit Charge, among other slim smart watches.

Despite a price increase, not too much is different between the devices.

The Pixel Watch 5, for all intents and purposes, is my ideal platonic smartwatch. Of all the exercise smartwatch apps I’ve used, Google Health is the most approachable for tracking sleep, stress, readiness, and exercise.
