RHR on Series 6 vs Fitbit Versa

I’ve been wearing both my series 6 and my original model Versa to bed and I’m getting very different RHR readings. The series 6 is at least 10 beats lower than the Versa. Which one should I trust?

Hi there, its_maz.


It appears that you're seeing a discrepancy between two watches you own in the resting heart rate reading. Your Apple Watch 6 is showing a slower rate than your Versa watch, and we're glad to help with this.


While we aren't able to say which watch you should trust more, we can help you make sure that you're getting the best results from your Apple Watch:
