The first thing you’ll notice is the Luxe’s slow reaction to inputs. Fitbit’s never been home to the most intuitive wearable UIs, but in melding the simplistic carousel-based UI of typical fitness trackers with more common smartwatch functionalities, Fitbit has done a decent job of keeping things usable. Where things get a trifle annoying is the Luxe’s user interface.

Not everyone wants an activity tracker that looks like a LIVESTRONG bracelet with a screen. Otherwise, the $150 base price-a $50 increase over the less opulently equipped but similarly functional Fitbit Inspire 2-may be the sweet spot between style and cost. If style is important to you with this kind of device, you may consider these relatively costly accessories. There are also leather and stainless-steel bands, among others, to choose from. This special edition fetches an extra $50 on top of the Luxe’s base price, or you can buy the link bracelet separately for $100. When working out, you’ll want to swap it out for the included silicone band, though, as Fitbit notes the Gorjana bracelet may discolor after prolonged contact with sweat. It passes decently as a piece of jewelry, thanks to its golden body attached to a stainless-steel, golden-colored “Parker Link Bracelet” made by California-based jewelry brand Gorjana.

Looks are the main appeal of the Fitbit Luxe, and the special edition is particularly striking. (Ars Technica may earn compensation for sales from links on this post through affiliate programs.)
