Fitbit Versa 3 and Sense users have recently received a mandatory base program update to eliminate the potential problem with overheating batteries. Google, belonging to Fitbit, said the update will reduce the risk of overheating, but at the same time reduce the battery capacity. The injured user has been provided with a loan of $ 50.
Although overheating is very important, many users report that the update has reduced the battery life. Some people say that their devices, each operating for a few days, now almost unable to stand it someday, which makes them almost not suitable for use. Many people are also disappointed with Fitbit's answer, believing that $ 50 is not enough compensation.
This is not the first problem of Fitbit with the battery. The company was fined $ 12 million after the ionic clock caused burns in 78 cases.
