SAMSUNG GALAXY FIT
SAMSUNG FIT ,IS IT REALLY FIT????????
LET'S SEE.........
In addition to the two new Samsung Gear smartwatches
we got saw a few days ago, Samsung is actually showing us something new
in its wearable line: The Gear Fit, a combination smartwatch and
fitness tracker. It's svelte and slick—and potentially the gorgeous
functional wearable we've been waiting for. Updated with hands on below
The new
Samsung wearable has a curved Super AMOLED touchscreen display measuring
1.84 inches. Its dimensions are 23.4 x 57.4 x 11.95 mm, and it weighs
just 27 grams—half the weight of Samsung's lightest smartwatch to date,
the Gear Neo.
The Gear Fit replicated many of the functions of the Gear we've already
seen, including the capability to receive incoming calls, emails, SMS
messages, alarms, as well as notifications from S-planner.
Besides the
form factor change, it's not immediately apparent what sets the Gear
Fit apart from its brethren. It's got built in Gyrocope, accelerometer,
and heart rate monitor. The Gear Fit can measure a host of fitness
metrics, including pedometer, exercise level, heart rate, sleep time, as
well as a stopwatch and timer.
The Gear Fit has a 210 mAh battery which Samsung says will get it 3-4 days of battery life.
All in all, it looks like a very interesting device that's sleeker than the clunk Galaxy Gear/ Gear 2 that came before. Sadly, it appears it only works with Galaxy devices.
Update: Hands-On
Here's the
skinny. Most fitness trackers don't have heart rate monitors yet, which
makes them much less of a compelling buy. So it's exciting that the Gear
Fit has one. Provided that it works. We got to spend a few minutes with
it at the New York press event, and it took it a couple tries to
actually give a reading. We had to make sure it was on very tightly
before it worked.
The Gear
Fit is pretty much a pared down version of Galaxy Gear. It's smaller and
lighter and much more comfortable. But that's not to say that it
doesn't have any heft. For it to have an LCD screen it has to have some.
The
interface is pretty basic and easy to use. There's a stop watch, a
timer, a section where you can track your activity, a watch, and a music
player. It's straightforward and easy to use. But it's not the most
stylish piece of wrist wear, although that's not at all surprising
considering the existence of Galaxy Gear in the first place.
Though the stylish looking features of the fit . the perfectly balanced gadget it packs a lot of features .The question still arises with fit is it really worth it???
Though I thought it would have been great if the gear 2 and fit were merged and samsung would reveal an outsanting product combining the 2 products.Its still beginning but fit is a good product.
