Fitbit rolled out its newly redesigned app. Additionally, the Google-owned subsidiary also teased a new device that is likely set to debut next week. A short teaser shared on X (formerly Twitter) hints at the arrival of the Charge 6. It is expected to be the successor to the Charge 5 that debuted way back in 2021. For those unaware Google acquired Fitbit in 2021 and the latter’s upcoming product launch happens to be just a few days ahead of the search giant’s annual Pixel event. 

Fitbit Charge 6 teased to arrive next week

On X, Fitbit teased the product unveiling on September 28, next Thursday. The six-second teaser shared on the microblogging platform shows a person swinging their arms with a wrist-worn tracker that looks similar to the previous Charge devices. We can notice the screen, case, and band. This points to the arrival of the Fitbit Charge 6. 

As per 9to5Google, the Fitbit Charge 6 will look identical to its predecessor, the Charge 5. However, there will be one noticeable change. The Google-owned subsidiary will resurrect the physical button to navigate and access various functions easily. The Fitbit Charge 6 is also expected to come with integration for Google apps and services like YouTube Music for playback control and Maps for navigating purposes. 

Previously a Fitbit device had passed the FCC certification website. It was listed as a “Google LLC Wireless Device G3MP5”. This solidifies that the brand is indeed planning to launch a new tracker which could potentially be the Charge 6. 

We will learn more details about the upcoming Fitbit device next week.
