Motorola has unveiled a new fitness watch, the Motorola Moto Watch 2 Fit. Like the previous generation band, it features fitness tracking input from health tech specialist Polar.
The Motorola Moto Watch 2 Fit has an Apple Watch-like design, with a rounded rectangular 1.85-inch OLED screen and aluminum casing. But it uses a simplified health and fitness style operating system rather than full smartwatch software.
This lets a battery charge last up to 12 days of typical use, or up to seven days in the always-on display mode.

The Motorola Moto Watch 2 Fit will record your heart rate throughout the day and during exercise, it can monitor blood oxygenation and has dual-band GPS to track your location when out for walks and runs. Its wider feature stack is relatively humble, though.
There's no Wi-Fi, meaning you need to connect to your phone over Bluetooth to sync data. The Motorola Moto Watch 2 Fit lacks NFC, so can't be used for wireless payments.
Compared to the Watch Fit, released in 2025, there's what looks like a rotary dial controller. But it's not yet clear if it is an actual dial, or simply a button. This generation's screen can also reach 1,500 nits of peak brightness according to Motorola, which is respectable at the price.
Slightly more advanced-sounding features include menstrual cycle tracking and a built-in virtual assistant called Qira. This will almost certainly involve taking in commands through the built-in microphone, and sending that data to your phone, rather than pure on-device AI processing.

It also means the Motorola Moto Watch 2 Fit can be used for calls, though. It has a speaker as well as a microphone — by no means a given at this level.
Health and fitness related smarts provided by partner Polar include Nightly Recharge, which looks at how well your body recovered overnight, sleep stages, "Serene" breathing exercises and Running Index. This offers an idea of your performance based on how your running sessions go.
