Fitbit’s first official smartwatch, Ionic, is finally here. At first glance, it looks like a sleeker version of the Blaze fitness watch, but Ionic is packing a lot of cool new features under the hood. The all metal unibody design with swappable bands looks great, and the construction also gives it up to 50 meters of water resistance (swim tracking!) and better sensor contact with your skin. Ionic has common features like a mobile payment platform, built-in GPS and music storage, along with the Fitbit Coach app that allows you to access dynamic workouts and personalized recommendations. Couple all those features with four-day battery life and it’s clear why this watch is going to be a real contender for the fitness minded. The Fitbit Ionic will be available in three colorways (charcoal/smoke gray, slate blue/burnt orange, blue gray/silver gray) and is currently up for pre-order through Fitbit.
