Fitbit Japan has started pre-ordering the health care & fitness tracker "Fitbit Charge 5" on August 26th. The price is 24,900 yen (tax included).
Fitbit.com will ship by late September. In addition to being able to purchase in advance at some retail stores' online shops, advance reservations will be started at Amazon, Bic Camera, Yodobashi Camera, Joshin Denki, Watch Honpo, neel, TIMETIME, and TicTAC. It will be available for purchase worldwide in the fall of 2021.
The product is a health management & fitness tracker that supports comprehensive health including fitness, stress, heart health (keeps track of heart rate 24 hours a day), and sleep. It features the first EDA sensor on Fitbit trackers.
In addition, it has a built-in GPS function, 20 exercise modes, automatic exercise recognition function, and V02 max guessing function.
EDA sensors can measure the body's response to stress by reading small changes in the sweat glands on the fingers. This is the first product of the company to be installed in the smart watch "Fitbit Sense" released in the fall of 2020. Since then, 70% of users have successfully reduced their heart rate during a 2-minute EDA scan session.
You can also manage your comprehensive health data, including respiratory rate, skin temperature fluctuations, and blood oxygen wellness, with the Health Indicators dashboard in the Fitbit app.
For sleep, sleep tools such as sleep scores, sleep stages, and SmartWake alarms are available.
