One of the areas that Fitbit has always done a good job at is encouraging community. The essential apps I would want are available, and on Android, I can respond to messages that come in with either a quick response, emoji, or by voice. That's all been possible on the Sense 2, well, most of it. As I mentioned before, I've never been drawn to fitness trackers, even those claiming to be a smartwatch, because I want to have access to some apps and the ability to act on notifications if I choose to.

I generally enjoyed the software experience on the Sense 2. But there are a lot of great options for replacements, both from Fitbit and third parties. The band attaches to the Sense 2 with proprietary, quick-release clips. In the box, you get two different size straps, small and large, to accommodate different-sized wrists.

Overall the Sense 2 has a very low profile that makes it comfortable to wear for long periods, including during the night when tracking your sleep. While this change reduces the device's overall weight and theoretically cost, the price isn't much reflecting that. The original Sense was offered in stainless steel, whereas the Sense 2 opts for aluminum. Another change to the case is the material it's made from. The case is more rounded and introduces a physical button on the left side of the device in favor of the capacitive button found on the original.

In its second iteration, the Fitbit Sense 2 refines the design of the first edition of the wearable and aims to stay in the race for the best fitness trackers available.
