        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - Google introduced its latest fitness tracker, the\nFitbit Edge, on 12 October 2026. The device features an AMOLED\ntouchscreen, built-in GPS, health-monitoring functions and a battery\nclaimed to last up to seven days on a single charge.<\/p>\n<p>The Fitbit Edge is designed for users who want activity and\nhealth-tracking features without having to wear a large smartwatch. It\nsits between the screen-free Fitbit Air and the Pixel Watch smartwatch\nrange.<\/p>\n<p>According to information from Google, pre-orders for the Fitbit Edge\nopened on 12 October 2026, with sales scheduled to begin on 27 October\n2026. Google is also giving buyers three months of access to Google\nHealth Premium.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Google Fitbit Edge price<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Google Fitbit Edge starts at US$179.99, or around Rp3 million at\nthe estimated exchange rate, before taxes and import charges. This is\nthe price in the US market and may differ when the device is sold in\nother countries.<\/p>\n<p>Google is also offering a special Stephen Curry edition for\nUS$219.99. It comes with a custom strap developed in collaboration with\nNBA basketball player Stephen Curry.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, the available information did not confirm the\nofficial price or launch date for the Fitbit Edge in Indonesia. The\nrupiah figure is therefore only an estimated conversion, not the\nofficial price for the Indonesian market.<\/p>\n<p>The Fitbit Edge has a 1.34-inch colour AMOLED display with an\nalways-on feature. This allows users to view activity information and\nnotifications without having to manually wake the screen each time.<\/p>\n<p>The device measures 39.22 x 25.56mm and is around 11.58mm thick. It\nweighs 17.7g without the strap, and its casing is made from recycled\naluminium. The Fitbit Edge also has a physical button on the side for\neasier navigation.<\/p>\n<p>For connectivity, the device supports Bluetooth 5.4 and has built-in\nGPS, which can track outdoor activities without users always having to\ncarry a phone. It also includes an altimeter to measure changes in\nelevation while running or doing other physical activities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Health and fitness features<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Google has equipped the Fitbit Edge with a range of features to\nmonitor physical activity and health. The device supports tracking for\nmore than 50 types of exercise, all-day heart-rate monitoring, blood\noxygen (SpO2) readings and sleep-quality tracking.<\/p>\n<p>The Fitbit Edge also offers an electrocardiogram (ECG) function to\nhelp check heart rhythm, skin-temperature tracking, menstrual-cycle\nmonitoring and irregular heart-rate notifications. The availability of\nsome health features may vary by country and region.<\/p>\n<p>The device also supports Google Health Coach, which uses Gemini\nartificial intelligence to provide workout recommendations and fitness\nguidance tailored to users\u2019 activity.<\/p>\n<p>The feature requires a Google Health Premium subscription. Fitbit\nEdge buyers receive three months\u2019 access free of charge, after which use\nis subject to the applicable subscription terms. Google says that its\nhealth-monitoring and Health Coach features are not intended to replace\na professional medical diagnosis or advice.<\/p>\n<p>One of the Fitbit Edge\u2019s key selling points is its claimed battery\nlife of up to seven days on a single charge. It also supports fast\ncharging, with Google claiming that five minutes of charging provides\nenough power for up to a day\u2019s use.<\/p>\n<p>Actual battery life may vary depending on settings, features used,\nthe environment and usage patterns. Google also describes the Fitbit\nEdge as its first fitness tracker designed to be repairable, including\nwith a user-replaceable battery. (blog.google)<\/p>\n<p>The device has 5 ATM and IP68 water- and dust-resistance ratings.\nThese ratings do not mean, however, that it is completely waterproof or\nimmune to all forms of water exposure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Compatible with Android and iPhone<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Fitbit Edge works with most phones running Android 11 or later,\nas well as iPhones running iOS 16.4 or later. Users need a Google\naccount and the Google Health app to access the device\u2019s features.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to fitness tracking, the device can display call and\nmessage notifications, weather information, media controls and daily\nactivity details. However, the Fitbit Edge focuses more on fitness\ntracking than on offering the full range of smartwatch functions.<\/p>\n<p>With its AMOLED display, built-in GPS, health-monitoring features and\nclaimed battery life of up to seven days, the Google Fitbit Edge offers\na new option for users seeking a compact fitness device. Indonesian\nconsumers will nevertheless have to wait for confirmation of official\npricing and availability before deciding whether to buy it.<\/p>",
