Google’s Fitbit Air is getting a shiny new Metal Mesh band and better automatic tracking

The Fitbit Air is finally getting another band option that isn’t fabric or polyurethane. Instead, the Metal Mesh band might actually take the Fitbit Air up a notch.

Band selection for the Fitbit Air has been limited. The Elevated Modern band and Performance Loop options are good, but they lack a little flair. The Fitbit Air needed another band option to take advantage of just how easy it is to swap styles.

The Metal Mesh band fills that gap. It comes in Polished Silver and Champagne Gold with the intent of matching your existing jewelry. The look lets the wearable blend in with an elevated outfit, even if the Performance Loop band does a good job fitting most looks.

Google says the Metal Mesh band for the Fitbit Air will be priced at $69.99. You’ll also be able to buy the Fitbit Air with the Metal Mesh band and the Performance Loop band for $149.99 as a bundle, but it only comes in gold. That’s $20 more than the special editions, like the Steph Curry band and the Pokémon Sleep band, but it comes with two bands instead of a single option.

Packed into the band announcement, Google detailed a couple more feature additions to the Fitbit Air, regardless of band choice.

Google announced Health Guardian features that analyze your overall health picture. For Google Health Premium users who set up blood pressure and insulin resistance trends in the app, a report will be available each month to guide lifestyle adjustments.
