1. The Welltin Woven Fabric Strap
Product Highlights
Working out in a breathable fabric watch band prevents chafing and other unpleasant symptoms that may occur after exercising with a regular watch.
Features

What We Like About the Welltin Woven Fabric Strap
This band is really easy to clean, which is especially necessary after a workout when it gets a bit sweaty. The straps dry quickly after being washed.
It attaches (and detaches) easily and – most importantly – stays securely on the watch. You don’t need to worry about the fabric fraying either because it is woven well and thick.
A really comfortable band that fits well on small or larger wrists.
What We Don’t Like About the Welltin Woven Fabric Strap
If the band is not washed after workouts, the fabric will start to smell. Think of it like your clothes that similarly need washing after exercise.
The pins are found to be a bit small for the watch, therefore, they break or come out without warning. The material seems to be of flimsy quality.
PROS
- Easy to clean
- Easy to affix and remove
- Breathable fabric
- Fits all wrist sizes
CONS
- Needs frequent washing
- The pins don’t fit the watch properly

What We Like About the Fintie Metal Band
The link removal tool is of high quality and easy to use. Up to 8 links can be removed to accommodate many wrist widths. Extra pins are included with the band.
A professional looking band that feels solid and high grade. Very durable and reliable in that you won’t find the watch pop off the band.
What We Don’t Like About the Fintie Metal Band
While it is convenient to be able to remove links, there is no option of purchasing links to add to the band. The pins are not found inside the band, you must insert the pins yourself;
It does not consistently conform in fitting all Fitbit Versa watches. The sizing isn’t accurate
PROS
- Looks professional
- Links can be removed to fit a smaller wrist
- Made of stainless steel

What We Like About the Coperr Bands
A great substitute for individuals who are allergic to silicone bands, no more rashes. Being less bulky than other bands on the market gives the Versa a more feminine look.
The band easily attaches to the smartwatch, is really flexible and soft. Feel like the original band.
What We Don’t Like About the Coperr Bands
Although the plastic is hypoallergenic, be aware that the metal clasp is not. So anyone with sensitive skin may get a rash from the clasp;
All four of the bands are inconsistent in their sizing. The straps are designed for the wrong ends which makes it incompatible with the Fitbit Versa.
PROS
- Easy to wash
- Great for people with silicone allergies
- Flexible and doesn’t chafe your skin
- Feel as good quality as the original
CONS
- Very feminine looking, which would not be suitable for men
- Metal clasp isn’t hypoallergenic

What We Like About the Hapaw Bands
A unisex band that looks great on both men and women.
A strong and secure magnetic clasp that is great for small wristed people.
That means it is not necessary to pierce a hole in a watch strap to accommodate smaller wrists.
It comes with two extra pins for your convenience. This lightweight band doesn’t get in the way or bother you while you are asleep.
What We Don’t Like About the Hapaw Bands
The magnetic clasp seems to drain your smartwatch battery faster. The metal isn’t flexible and is very stiff to move about.
Pulls and catches on long sleeves and other clothing.
Instructions are not included to explain how to attach the band to the Versa watch.
PROS

Soft fabric that isn’t itchy, especially after a workout. Suited in particular for people that wear their Fitbit Versa on a regular basis and find it doesn’t irritate the skin, even after wearing it for a long time.
A lightweight band that doesn’t feel fragile in any way nor does it feel like you are wearing anything at all.
A no-worry secure band that will not come undone by itself. Included is a convenient tool for removing and installing the bands to the Versa.
What We Don’t Like About the Kimilar Woven Band
We find the wrist clasp to be a bit flimsy. The plastic is not polished smoothly enough and may scratch your wrist.
If the band is not regularly washed after exercising, it may itch or start to smell.
Its appearance reveals visible glue in the areas it is holding the band together

What We Like About the Maxjoy Magnetic Metal Band
The TPU protective case is flexible so it doesn’t interfere with the touch screen and if the TPU screen gets marked or scratched, you can just buff it down and it is gone.
The magnetic clasp holds the strap in place tightly. The stainless steel mesh doesn’t catch on arm hairs. Although it is made out of metal, it is really breathable and doesn’t weigh your wrist down.
What We Don’t Like About the Maxjoy Magnetic Metal Band
The metal band is very thick, giving a bulky look on slim wrists and will discolor over time.
The screen protector is situated in such a way to prevent you from being able to use the side buttons on the smartwatch.
Users have found it a little tricky to connect to the Fitbit if they haven’t changed the strap before.

What We Like About the Fitbit Versa Family Accessory Band
The fact that it is made by Fitbit means that it fits perfectly with the watch and it is not hard to affix. The width looks proportional to the size of the Fitbit Versa and fits securely on the watch.
This sporty looking band really goes well with your workout clothes. The holes in the band make it breathable prevents chafing under the band and it doesn’t get ruined in the shower or when you wash your hands
What We Don’t Like About the Fitbit Versa Family Accessory Band
The band only looks good when worn with sporty clothes and needs to be changed when you wear the Versa to the office.
The style is very masculine and doesn’t look right on a small framed female
The rubber looks cheap. Attaching the band to the watch can be very fiddly.

- Easy to attach to the smartwatch
- The silicone doesn’t chafe your skin

The flexible protective casing is a major bonus and keeps your Fitbit Versa safe from scratches and bumps. Overall the band is great quality and reliability, you won’t even need to mess about with removing or adding links as you would with other metal watches, because the magnetic clasp will attach to the band wherever you want them to.

Q: Is it compatible with ALL Fitbit Versa Models?
A: It will fit on all the Fitbit Versa smartwatch models, even the limited edition and exclusive models.
