Samsung Gear Fit2 release date and price
The first Gear Fit appeared in 2014 and was presented together with the Samsung Galaxy S5. With the first generation of the Gear Fit, Samsung created a great device for the time: a fitness tracker with a heart rate monitor and pedometer which could also receive app notifications. However, these features were not the real highlight of the Gear Fit: its curved 1.84-inch AMOLED display, which displayed all important health data and notifications, was the real showstopper.
The original Gear Fit was also cause for some head shaking, however, as Samsung had designed it so that the screen’s contents were only oriented in landscape mode, rendering it largely useless in everyday life. A later software update changed this, putting an end to the need for awkward head movements to read the display.
With the new Gear Fit2, Samsung updates the hardware and software and integrates 4 GB of internal memory, to allow the fitness tracker to function as a portable MP3 player, meaning you can leave your smartphone at home.
The Gear Fit2 is available for purchase now for $179.99. It comes in three colors – black, red or blue – and in two different strap sizes (S or L).
