Verdict

If you’ve never used the original Versa and are in the market for a new reasonably priced smartwatch, then the Versa 2 is a compelling proposition. Physical tweaks to the design and a fabulous display make the Versa 2 look like a premium wearable that would look good on almost anyone, while the addition of Alexa offers something different to the Fitbit range, even though it’s not perfectly implemented.

And while it may not support all messaging platforms (for example, Slack), you will receive notifications for most other popular texting services including WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger.

However, full Spotify support and built-in GPS would have made this near-perfect, affordable device that much more compelling wearable.
