Claims that there will be no new Versas or Senses is incorrect, rep says.

Alright, where's my replacement once my current Fitbit dies? What company makes a watch that tracks steps, heart rate, sleep, spO2, notifications, is generally water resistant (light swimming) and has a battery that lasts ~5+ days? Bonus points for open firmware/hardware that doesn't require me to design my own apps/systems for each of those items. I don't even use most of what my Versa 3 can do, but I know it won't last forever and I'd at least like an idea of where to go if/when it breaks down.
Garmin is the gold standard in athletic watches. They have a ton of models, from generic entry level to high end, sport specific.
Check out Withings. Not open, but they are pretty good on respecting privacy and check the boxes you want. withings doesn't do the full screen app stuff, but it's a good watch with all the smart features.
Garmin Instinct 2 does all of those things well, and has excellent battery life. I charge mine about every two weeks.
