Fitbit is recalling 1.7 million smartwatches due to a potential burn hazard, the Consumer Product Safety Commission says
The voluntary recall exclusively involves Fitbit Ionic smartwatch models, which contain a lithium-ion battery that can potentially overheat and pose a burn hazard to consumers, according to the CPSC. The agency said the recall impacts one million devices sold in the United States and an additional 693,000 that were sold internationally.
"Customer safety is always Fitbit's top priority and out of an abundance of caution, we are conducting a voluntary recall of Fitbit Ionic smartwatches," Holing said in the statement."These incidents are very rare and this voluntary recall does not impact other Fitbit smartwatches or trackers."
