Demand for smartwatches has attracted consumers with extra functionalities beyond timekeeping and Fitbit becomes most recalled brand in the household when it comes to fitness tracker. Fitbit took over Pebble, Vector as well as mobile payment company Coin . Rumors of Fitbit's "Project Higgs" GPS smartwatch have been around for months, but the chatter has been getting louder in recent days. A launch may be getting closer. Experts believe that Project Higgs is a straight competition to Apple watch and the Fitbit Blaze was an attempt at bridging the gap between fitness tracker and smartwatch and is expected to be water proof.
