Swap it out for, say, the Gold Mesh version that Fitbit also sent me, and voila! Instant style elevation. When paired with the silicone option you get in the box, the Luxe still looks kinda basic. But the strap you pick can make all the difference. The stainless steel case itself is slightly curved along the edges, making it less blockish than the Charge 4 and the Alta.

So yes, the Luxe is a dainty little thing, which is nice for people like me who have small wrists. It’s also about three quarters as wide as a Fitbit Charge 4, and a hair thinner. That’s about as thick as the Apple Watch SE, but about a third of the width. It’s indeed very small and thin, with a profile of 0.4 inches. It used techniques like metal injection molding to make the stainless steel case, “providing the warmth expected of handcrafted jewelry, all while delivering a level of precision needed to enable its advanced sensor technology.” After throwing in a few dozen mentions of how elegant the Luxe is, the company ends up calling this “one of Fitbit’s most fashionable and comfortable devices yet.”Ĭo-founder James Park said “We’ve made major technological advancements with Luxe, creating a smaller, slimmer, beautifully designed tracker packed with advanced features – some that were previously only available with our smartwatches.” Meaning that Fitbit was able to squeeze advanced components into the teeny tiny body of the Luxe, which is about as wide as my index finger and just 1.43 inches long.
