Google launches Fitbit Edge, a slim fitness tracker with a screen and up to seven days of battery backup; price, release date, Steph Curry special edition and specs

Google has launched Fitbit Edge, a slim fitness tracker with a bright screen, built in GPS and up to seven days of battery life. Pre-orders are open on the Google Store and with retail partners, and sales in shops start later this month.

A Stephen Curry special edition has also been launched. Google product leads Ryan Krems and Noah Presler said in a company blog post that many people want a wearable between an advanced smartwatch like Pixel Watch and a quiet band like Fitbit Air. Fitbit Edge is made for that gap, they said.
