Fitbit will lay off 110 employees amid challenges ...
The new Charge costs more than the old one and doesn't have a GPS. Now I have to run with my phone on me to get accurate location data.
They're regressing.

The charge 2 is the same price as the old one -- but I'd agree if they could put an actual gps tracker on a $150 watch -- like with polar m200 -- it'd be a better competitor to other fitness bands.

Only the Fitbit Surge has built-in GPS (the first generation Charge and Charge HR didn't).
The Charge 2 does cost more at retail presently, however.
