The update of the well-known fitness tracker doesn't turn out small. In the Charge 5, Fitbit replaces the outdated monochrome OLED of the predecessor with a color version, removes the button on the side, and expands several functions for health monitoring.
Update: ECG and Daily Readiness Score are available at this point.

Many reviews have noted the touch navigation is inferior without the single button. We have all experienced miss-taps on a screen, which is inevitable compared to a button, especially for a small device like this. Users will very often find themselves accidentally choosing the wrong function. So it is not an all-round upgrade, it is a downgrade in this regard.
I've owned 3 Fitbit watches in the last five years and can't get one to last more than a year. Lot of hope for the money. Not sure I'm a believer
