Google Fitbit Ace LTE features gaming abilities

The smartwatch is said to deliver fully immersive, interactive 3D games on the wrist, where the more the ids move, the more game time they unlock. Each game is built specifically for the device — using haptics, sounds, the accelerometer and more — to deliver fun and engaging gameplay.

Ace LTE also recognizes and rewards all sorts of physical activity. All of this movement shows up in Fitbit’s activity ring yet — the ‘Noodle’ — that lives on the home screen.

Google Fitbit Ace LTE can be used with smartphones running on Android as well as iOS. It can be paired with the new Fitbit Ace app, enabling users to share location, messaging and calling.
