Fitbit Edge at $180 sits between a tracker and a smartwatch

A hands-on with the Fitbit Edge finds it a compelling middle ground: $180 buys an interactive AMOLED display, unlike the $100 Fitbit Air, while undercutting the $399 Pixel Watch 5. It lacks a speaker, microphone and most onboard apps, and its compact, light design targets people who don't want a full smartwatch.

• Fitbit Edge costs $180 versus $399 for the Pixel Watch 5
• It has an interactive AMOLED display the $100 Fitbit Air lacks
• No speaker, microphone or most smartwatch apps onboard
• Compact, lightweight design aimed at non-smartwatch users
