Here are the 10 things runners will love about the new Fitbit Ionic

1. Stylish. It comes with square sporty look and sleek metallic finish. The blue band and gold case looked great that Quennie immediately took it from me. But the bands are interchangeable. It allows you to change from its sporty rubber band to a classic leather.

2. Long Battery Life. All Fitbit models are known for its long battery life. The Fitbit Ionic can last up to 5 days on a single charge depending on the type of use. But while using the GPS it can last up to 10 hours.

4. Automatic Run Tracking. It can detect if you are running or not. The Run Detect feature enables the GPS tracking. So just step out and run. You can already see real time pace and distance. It has also auto-pause feature when you top at intersections or to just take a breather.

5. Waterproof. Swim all you want! The Fitbit Ionic is now water resistant up to 50 meters. It also has swim specific features like lap counting, real-time laps, execise duration and calories burned.

6. Swim-Bike-Run features. You can now take our Fitbit Ionic for multi-sport events. It can track your swim, your ride, and your run. It’s your all-in one device that fits your active lifestyle.
