Fitbit Edge Straps & Bands: Will Fitbit Charge 6 Straps Fit the New Fitbit Edge?

The Fitbit Edge looks set to become one of the most exciting new Fitbit fitness trackers in years – and if the latest leaks are accurate, it could effectively be the successor many people expected to launch as the Fitbit Charge 7.

For existing Fitbit owners, however, there's another important question:

What straps will fit the Fitbit Edge?

If you're already searching for Fitbit Edge straps, Fitbit Edge bands, Fitbit Edge replacement straps or Fitbit Edge accessories, there's one important thing to know: Google has not yet officially confirmed the Fitbit Edge strap connector or compatibility with previous Fitbit Charge straps.

So, will your existing Fitbit Charge 6 strap fit the new Fitbit Edge?

Here's what we know so far.

Fitbit Edge Straps and Bands

The leaked Fitbit Edge images show the new fitness tracker with removable bands, which strongly suggests owners will be able to change the original band for different Fitbit Edge straps and replacement bands.

That should eventually create plenty of choice for anyone looking for a different style.

Depending on the final connector design, we would expect the Fitbit Edge strap market eventually to include options such as:

  • Fitbit Edge silicone straps

  • Fitbit Edge sports bands

  • Fitbit Edge leather straps

  • Fitbit Edge metal straps

  • Fitbit Edge Milanese straps

  • Fitbit Edge nylon straps

  • Fitbit Edge replacement bands

  • Fitbit Edge women's straps

  • Fitbit Edge men's straps

However, Fitbit Edge strap compatibility has not yet been officially confirmed, so we'd recommend waiting before buying a band advertised specifically for the new device.

Will Fitbit Charge 6 Straps Fit Fitbit Edge?

This could become one of the biggest questions for existing Fitbit users.

Will Fitbit Charge 6 straps fit the Fitbit Edge?

At the moment, we don't know.

The Fitbit Edge appears to use removable bands, but leaked images alone aren't enough to confirm whether Google has retained the same connector used by the Fitbit Charge 6.

That's particularly important because Fitbit has changed strap designs and connectors between previous generations.

Until we can physically confirm the attachment system or Google publishes official specifications, we wouldn't recommend assuming that a Fitbit Charge 6 band will fit Fitbit Edge.

As soon as compatibility is confirmed, we'll update this guide.

Will Fitbit Charge 5 Straps Fit Fitbit Edge?

Owners of older Fitbit trackers may also be wondering whether their existing Fitbit Charge 5 straps will fit the Fitbit Edge.

The Fitbit Charge 5 and Fitbit Charge 6 already share many compatible replacement straps, which means there's currently a huge range of Charge 5 and Charge 6 bands available.

Whether any of those straps will also fit the Fitbit Edge depends entirely on the connector Google chooses for the new tracker.

If Google retains compatibility, existing Charge owners could immediately have access to a huge selection of replacement bands.

If the connector has changed, however, the Fitbit Edge will require an entirely new generation of straps.

We'll confirm this as soon as reliable compatibility information becomes available.

Best Fitbit Edge Straps

Once the Fitbit Edge launches, choosing the best Fitbit Edge strap will largely depend on how you use your tracker.

For everyday fitness and workouts, a Fitbit Edge silicone strap should provide a lightweight, water-resistant option suitable for running, gym sessions and general exercise.

For a softer everyday band, Fitbit Edge nylon straps could offer greater breathability and comfort.

Anyone wanting to dress up their tracker may prefer a Fitbit Edge leather strap, while metal and Fitbit Edge Milanese straps could give the fitness tracker a more premium watch-style appearance.

As soon as Fitbit Edge strap dimensions and compatibility are confirmed, we'll begin testing compatible replacement straps.

Fitbit Edge Sports Straps

The Fitbit Edge is expected to remain primarily a fitness-focused wearable, so Fitbit Edge sports straps are likely to be among the most popular replacement bands.

Silicone sports bands are particularly useful for running, cycling, gym training and everyday activity because they're easy to clean and cope well with sweat and moisture.

We expect Fitbit Edge sport bands to become available in numerous colours and designs once the new tracker reaches the market.

Fitbit Edge Leather Straps

A Fitbit Edge leather strap could be a good option for owners who want their fitness tracker to look less sporty during everyday wear.

Leather Fitbit bands can make a tracker considerably easier to wear at work, at dinner or in more formal situations.

If the Fitbit Edge becomes a direct replacement for the Charge range, we'd expect both traditional leather bands and slimmer leather strap designs to become available.

Fitbit Edge Metal Straps and Milanese Bands

Another popular option will likely be Fitbit Edge metal straps.

Metal link bands can transform the appearance of a fitness tracker, while Fitbit Edge Milanese straps should provide a lighter mesh-style alternative.

These types of replacement bands have been particularly popular across previous Fitbit models because they allow users to switch between a sports band for exercise and a smarter strap for everyday wear.

Fitbit Edge Nylon Straps

For comfort, a Fitbit Edge nylon strap could be one of the best alternatives to the standard silicone band.

Nylon Fitbit bands tend to be lightweight and flexible, making them particularly suitable for all-day wear.

They can also provide more adjustment than traditional buckle straps, which may make them useful for people who struggle to get the perfect fit from standard Fitbit bands.

Fitbit Edge Replacement Straps

Replacement bands aren't only about changing the appearance of your Fitbit.

A Fitbit Edge replacement strap could be useful if the original band becomes damaged, worn or uncomfortable.

Having several Fitbit Edge bands also allows you to change the strap depending on what you're doing – for example:

A silicone band for the gym, a nylon band for everyday comfort and a leather or metal strap when you want the Fitbit Edge to look more like a traditional watch.

What Size Strap Does Fitbit Edge Use?

The official Fitbit Edge strap size has not yet been confirmed.

Until Google publishes the dimensions of the new tracker and its band connector, listings claiming guaranteed Fitbit Edge compatibility should be treated cautiously.

Once we have confirmed measurements, we'll publish full information covering:

Fitbit Edge strap width, Fitbit Edge connector type, Fitbit Edge small and large band sizes, and compatibility with previous Fitbit Charge straps.

Can You Change the Fitbit Edge Strap?

Based on leaked images, the Fitbit Edge appears to have removable bands.

That would mean users should be able to remove the original strap and install a replacement Fitbit Edge watch band.

However, the exact release mechanism has not yet been officially documented.

We'll publish fitting instructions once the final Fitbit Edge hardware becomes available.

Fitbit Edge Strap Colours

One of the advantages of interchangeable Fitbit bands is the ability to change colours without replacing the tracker itself.

We expect replacement Fitbit Edge straps eventually to appear in a wide selection of colours, potentially including:

Black, white, blue, pink, rose gold, purple, green, grey, red and other seasonal colours.

This should make it possible to customise the Fitbit Edge for sport, work or everyday wear.

Fitbit Edge vs Fitbit Charge 6 Strap Compatibility

For current Charge owners, this is the comparison that matters most.

If Fitbit Edge uses the same strap connector as Fitbit Charge 6, existing Charge 5 and Charge 6 owners may already have compatible straps at home.

If Google introduces a new connector, you'll instead need bands manufactured specifically for the Fitbit Edge.

We won't claim compatibility until we've confirmed it.

That's particularly important when shopping online because two straps can look almost identical while using slightly different connectors.

Where to Buy Fitbit Edge Straps in the UK

Once compatibility is confirmed, we'll be adding a selection of Fitbit Edge straps in the UK covering different materials, colours and styles.

FitStraps already specialises in replacement Fitbit bands, so we'll be checking the new Fitbit Edge connector as soon as reliable specifications or physical devices become available.

Our aim will be to offer Fitbit Edge replacement straps covering everyday wear, sport and smarter occasions.

Fitbit Edge Bands in the USA

Interest in the new Fitbit isn't limited to the UK.

We're also seeing increasing interest from people searching for Fitbit Edge bands in the USA, particularly as news surrounding the next generation of Fitbit hardware develops.

Once strap compatibility is confirmed, we'll update our compatibility information for customers looking for Fitbit Edge straps in the US as well as the UK.

Fitbit Edge Strap Compatibility – Latest Update

For now, the most important thing to remember is:

Fitbit Edge strap compatibility has not yet been officially confirmed.

The tracker appears to support removable bands, but we don't yet know whether Fitbit Charge 5 or Fitbit Charge 6 straps will fit.

Rather than guessing, we'll update this page as soon as reliable compatibility information becomes available.
