hi everyone Abby here and welcome back to tech tuesday today i'm going to be reviewing the fitbit
luxe special edition for you guys but before i get started make sure to hit that subscribe button so
you can stay tuned to all my new videos dropping weekly and so you can help the channel grow all
right guys so i'm gonna go ahead and walk you through all the major functions about this fitness
tracker how it works you know any cons and my opinion on it and i'm gonna leave timestamps
in the description below so you can head there if you want to jump to a certain point in the video
so i've had this for 30 days guys i wanted to do a 30 day comprehensive review for you guys instead
of just coming out with like a one week 10 day type of thing so starting off this is in the color
soft gold for the bezeling so it does come with the gorjana stainless steel parker link bracelet
it also comes with the classic silicone bands from fitbit in the peony color and soft gold
and it comes with both a large and a small band to fit a variety different wrists this was currently
$249.99 canadian or $199.99 american to get the special edition here the bonus that comes with
the special edition is you're getting stainless steel chain bracelet and you're also getting the
silicone bands in the peony color if you just want to get the traditional without this band
it's going to cost you $199.99 canadian or $149.99 american and the peony color is only available
with the special edition fitbit looks the classic versions don't come in the peony color but i would
definitely recommend actually getting the special edition because i think that the bracelet that it
does come with here is absolutely gorgeous and you know the whole thing about the fitbit luxe
is trend saying it's like a piece of jewelry it's beautiful and it is but if you just have it with
the silicone van in my opinion this doesn't look like jewelry it looks like a really nice fitness
tracker but not like jewelry it's not until you put this on that it looks like jewelry guys
absolutely beautiful in my opinion also one extra thing is if you're wearing this and you don't
really want people to know you're wearing you know a fitness tracker for whatever reason you could go
ahead and just kind of turn it upside down and wear it like this and nobody would even know
that you're wearing a fitness tracker because it's kind of hidden at the bottom of your wrist here so
that's also a benefit and when it is on the bottom of your wrist it's still tracking everything guys
so i'm going to walk you through some highlights about the fitbit luxe you can track activities
such as running swimming walking cardio workouts and more it does have an amoled display so you're
able to see those bright bold punchy colors it has 24/7 heart rate monitoring sleep tracking to
use smart wake alarm which is going to wake you up at the perfect time the least destructive time in
your sleep cycle it has your classic fitbit move reminders basic clock features like alarms timers
it has guided breathing and much more guys but these are the main functions the most important
i think all right guys so this is what it looks like on me with the peony band the small band here
and it does fit nicely as you guys can see i can wear it at like the fifth
kind of slit right here and i do have a seven inch wrist all right guys so i'm going to show
you what the large band looks like on me but i'm also going to show you how to remove the bands
so you're basically just going to push down with your thumb
and then you pull out so i think they're really easy to change the bands here guys
definitely easier than some other fitbits i've used in the past like the versa so i really
appreciate that once again this is the large just doing kind of a comparison side by side so you
guys see the difference here between the large and the small so when i put the large one on my
wrist i actually go up to the third from the top so it's definitely a lot bigger so this can fit a
variety of different wrist sizes i think i do have a seven entrance and i'm all the way up here so
if you have a bigger wrist than me i think you're definitely gonna be fine because you have so much
more room here guys all right guys so this is what the griana soft gold bracelet looks like on me
and i've gone ahead and removed two of the links for a tighter fit on my wrist so it's not as loose
and if you want to see how to do that you can go ahead and check out my video on the top right when
you're done watching this where i show you step by step how to remove the links and add them back on
all right guys so now i'm going to show you how to use this so the first thing you're going to
do is you're going to wake up the screen one way you can do this is if you have your gestures kind
of tilt to wake turned on you can just turn it towards your face and it lights up the screen
awakes for you if you do not have this turned on if you want to see a battery life for example you
can go ahead and just double tap this firmly and the screen also wakes up so now if i swipe down
we're going to see our do not disturb we're going to see sleep mode the auto wake function for the
screen which i just showed you this kind of thing you can turn it on or off and then you're going
to find your full settings here and you can go through and customize whatever you want so
going back by you know swiping right we're at the home screen again now that we're back on the home
screen we can swipe up you'll see the battery life and date you'll see all your different activities
you'll also see your sleep time your sleep score tells you how much steps you need for the hour you
have your heart rate menstrual tracking now going back swiping right i'm going to go ahead and swipe
right and we'll see your timer your alarms you have an option to do like a relaxation breathing
so guided breathing and honestly i find this super helpful for if you just want to meditate before
bed as well it just kind of slows down your heart rate and gets you a little bit more calm so inhale
exhale and while you're doing that when it tells you to inhale and exhale there's also a vibration
on here telling you exactly when to switch kind of as an extra prop we'll also see your exercises
for me my last exercise is a walk so that's what i'm seeing here but you can go ahead and see some
others like treadmill workout run put whatever presets you want on here you can put up to six
and you know you're gonna see your notifications and if you go ahead and swipe left you're gonna
see the exact same menu but just in reverse so that's all there is to this watch guys
it's very straightforward very easy to use and now i'm going to show you guys some watch faces
so the watch faces are definitely a letdown for me because they don't have many currently available
looking at all of them there's not that many i'm going to show you guys all of them though we have
one two three four 6 8 10 12 14 18 20 22 22 in total guys there aren't that many which is a
little disappointing for me hopefully they bring more in the future i personally like cycling
through a couple of them i really like this one as well and this is the one that it came installed so
i'm gonna go ahead and change it up i'm gonna go pick this one there's a little bit of kind
of like a smoke pattern on here which i think looks nice now i'm gonna talk to you guys about
the battery life fitbit said this can last up to five days and with my uses which i have on screen
for you guys you know things like weekly activity tracking 24 hour heart rate and more i have gotten
seven days of battery life guys like i honestly can't believe that so i am super happy with the
battery life here and one other thing i'm going to talk about comfort it is very comfortable to wear
whether you're wearing the gorjana bracelet here or if you have on the classic band it is super
comfortable either way and if you guys are liking this video please make sure to like and subscribe
it really helped my channel grow and help more people see my videos so now i'm gonna talk to
you guys about the sleep tracking but the fitbit luxe here is super accurate when it comes to sleep
tracking and in my experience fitbits are the most accurate sleep trackers currently on the market
in terms of sleep trackers built into smart watches so on your wrist you could see the
hours and you could see your sleep score which is 77 that's all you can see on here you cannot
see anything more in depth unless you go in the app which i will show you guys so just going into
my sleep data this is kind of what you see when you first open up the app it tells you the time
you went to bed the time you woke up it tells you the amount of time you're awake when you're in rem
sleep light sleep or deep sleep i'm going to click on this so this is my sleep from last night guys
we could see that my score was fair definitely could have been better so looking at my time
asleep when i click on that we can see a little chart of this and then you can make it bigger
so now looking at my different rem sleep so we're going to see that little kind of chart we saw at
the front screen tells you the amount of time you had in each stage and now going to the restoration
shows the amount of time that your heart rate was resting and the amount of time when it was above
that it also shows the amount of restless sleep you had and then it shows your oxygen variation
all right guys so a con i've noticed about the fitbit luxe after owning this for 30 days
is that the bezel here scratches easily so as you can see here there's just little scratches going
all across here really so i'd say definitely does scratch easily and this is after just 30 days guys
it's not like crazy noticeable especially from a distance you don't really notice it but it's
definitely annoying to have when you're looking at it up close the screen is fine guys there's
no screen protector on here no scratches dance anything and when we're talking about the band
here i actually don't have any nicks or scratch or anything on this band at all the only thing i've
noticed really is that it kind of picks up your fingerprints pretty easily so you got to wipe
that down continuously just to keep it looking nice so i think that the band here you know this
bracelet is definitely made of a stronger material than this is so the heart rate sensor here is
completely smooth no bumps or anything and it's not irritating at all which i really like and in
terms of the accuracy this is very accurate here guys alright guys so considering the price the
quality the color the durability the performance the functionality and everything like that
i would go ahead and give this an 8.7 out of 10. i definitely do give it a thumbs up so if you guys
are interested in getting the fitbit luxe i've gone ahead and left a link down in the description
for you and if there's anything i missed that you want to know just go ahead and comment
