Fitbit is reportedly gearing up to launch a new smartwatch for the mass audience. The smartwatch is reported to beknown as Versa and it might come with ‘mass appeal’.

The smartwatch was leaked by Evan Blass and it will reveal the official name of the smartwatch. Further, Wareable reports that it would be the successor to Fitbit Blaze and it will run on the same operating system, which is present in Ionic smartwatch. The report highlights that the brand is struggling with the Ionic smartwatch as it did not appear to be mass appealing. “It wants this to be something that will appeal to a larger, more general smartwatch audience,” a source close to the development told the publication.
