Fitbit Inspire 3 vs Sense - Where are the differences?
Where are the differences?
Let's have a closer look by comparing the differences between the two Wearable Inspire 3* and Sense* made by Fitbit.
Release Date
There are 2 years time between the releases of both products. The Fitbit Inspire 3 was first released in 2022. Consequently, the Fitbit Sense from 2020 is older.
Waterproof
Both, the Inspire 3, as well as the Sense are waterproof, and have no further difference in this feature. Both Wearable can be used under water in depths of up to 50 m.
Battery
The Fitbit Inspire 3 sports a longer battery runtime with 10 days. the Fitbit Sense battery lasts merely for 6 days.
GPS
Comparing the two Wearable, only the the Fitbit Sense has integrated GPS. The GLONASS technology is only available with the Sense. With both Wearable, you have the possibility to use Connected GPS. The devices will take the GPS data from your smartphone. The downside to this can be signal issues and having to carry your smartphone with you.
Heart Rate Monitor
A fitness watch without a heart rate monitor is basically useless and not advisable to buy. That's because your heart rate is one of the key elements of different calculations. For example, many devices without a heart rate monitor claim to count your calories burned too. That number will hardly be right without having access to your heart rate.
Comparing the Fitbit Inspire 3 and the Fitbit Sense, both devices offer the heart rate monitor function and score in our books. On top of that, both will monitor your heart rate 24/7. Some devices only do that when you press a button, which is practically speaking rather useless.
Measured values
The number of floors you've covered, or altitude differences measured by your watch, can't be tracked with the Inspire 3. Only the Sense supports this function.
Both Wearable offer you the possibility to record your sleep time. On top of that, they also allow you to do a sleep analysis.
With the Fitbit Sense the data is stored up to 7 days.
Bracelet
Being able to change your fitness watch band is a great advantage. You'll only have to worry about the color of the device itself, and not the color or material of its accompanying watch band. For pretty much every device, you can get cheap watch bands that will fit your device. You can make use of this advantage with both devices of this comparison.
Smarct functions
Getting call, text, or other notifications is a feature that both tools have. Often times, this feature is only possible with an Android device. iOS user can be left behind on this.
One minor advantage that the Fitbit Sense has is that it offers Amazon (Alexa) voice control.the Fitbit Inspire 3 doesn't have this feature.
Contactless payment
Contactless payment is a highly useful and more in demand than ever technology. Many Wearable already offer it. Being able to do this from your wrist is even more convenient than using your smartphone or a credit card. There's a difference here between the two products, as only the Sense enables you to pay contactless. The Sense works with Fitbit Pay.
