Bottom lineįor most people, the slightly less expensive Fitbit Charge 4 will be the better pick.

Of course, there are always third-party options for both the Charge 4 and the Versa Lite. However, the selection of bands for the Versa Lite is larger, and it includes designer bands. The Fitbit Versa Lite comes in five color options (band color listed first): White/Silver Aluminum, Lilac/Silver Aluminum, Marina Blue/Marina Blue Aluminum, Mulberry/Mulberry Aluminum, and Charcoal/Silver Aluminum.įitbit makes additional bands for both the Versa Lite and the Charge 4, so you can have different looks. Choose from four colorways: Black, Rosewood, Black with a Storm Blue band, or the Special Edition (slightly more expensive), which is the Black color with a second Granite Reflective Woven band. You have fewer color options with the Fitbit Charge 4. And most importantly, the Charge 4 has built-in GPS, which works independently from your phone, while the Versa Lite ties into your phone's GPS. The Charge 4 will track how many stairs you climb and will track your swims in a more specific way than the Versa Lite.

However, the Fitbit Charge 4 offers a few features that the Versa Lite does not. If you want to be able to download apps onto your wrist and not have to pull out your phone to access apps for news, weather, sports, travel, transit, and more, then you need a smartwatch such as the Fitbit Versa Lite.
