Watch band not the most secure
Short battery life. The accuracy of the heart-rate sensor fluctuates during workouts. You can't wear in the shower or while swimming. No iPhone support. Samsung's S Health app can be confusing

Stylish and comfortable design, Accurate activity tracking, Built-in GPS and step tracking, Automatic workout logging
Android-only at the moment, Samsung's health apps aren't as robust as others
With the Gear Fit 2, Samsung has succeeded in making a capable and stylish fitness tracker. But it also doesn't do anything significantly better or differently than the competition. trycatch(e) Hardware The Gear Fit 2 is an evolution of the o...
At $179, the Samsung Gear Fit2 is priced competitively, but not aggressively. It features enough technology and functionality to compete effectively in the current market. The Microsoft Band 2 now retails for ~$179, and Fitbit Blaze goes for ~$200.We're g...
Sleek looking, very comfy, lovely curved AMOLED display, decent battery life
App selection is small right now. As with all optical heart rate monitors, it gets confused by certain activities
The Samsung Gear Fit 2 pleasantly surprised me: it's a good combination of smartwatch notification features and fitness tracker for the beginner to moderate exercise fanatic. The band's interface is intuitive and the Gear and S Health apps are easy to use...
If you've been paying attention to Samsung's wearables over the past few years, the Gear Fit 2 will stand out immediately as an improvement over 2014's Gear Fit.The added compatibility with Android phones, GPS functionality, and wireless charging are but...
Samsung's 2016 tracker has gone under the knife, so to speak, and has come out looking focused as ever. The new look not only blends in better with the aesthetic of the company's other products, it looks good all on its own, Among many other winning compo
For some wearables, this is the section when I have the chance to deliver the biggest blows. Thankfully, I don't have many for the Samsung Gear Fit 2, The product is well-realized and does a good job at facilitating your journey, whether it be at the gym
All of the Samsung Gear Fit 2's flaws seem to be ones that can be addressed and fixed through a software update. This hope makes it much easier to deal with the Day One launch problems, that is, unless they stick around for the life of the product.We'll b...

Accurate distance and heart-rate tracking, solid notification options, cool and comfortable design, bright and crisp display
Uninspiring battery life, S Health lacks training advice, live data is limited
The Samsung Gear Fit 2 is a well-round fitness tracker that's more than the sum of its parts. Its integrated GPS and heart-rate sensor are both on point, while its sizeable screen is both beautiful and responsive.While it offers core tracking skills and r...
Bright curved Super AMOLED display, tracks with pinpoint accuracy, loads of watch face options, comfortable, flawlessly designed
Average battery life, S Health is mandatory, Cant interact using your voice
When the biggest caveat is a short charging cable then you know theres little else wrong with the Samsung Gear Fit 2. While it will certainly not be replacing your smartwatch, theres not much it cant do. It will track your life with accuracy and speed...

Heading in the right direction with GPS tracking, Activity tracking makes this smarter than the average Gear, Great value overall
An app store devoid of life, Very little stamina
At £179, Samsung has hit the perfect price point for the Gear Fit2. It's stocked full of tech, with GPS tracking really adding value to the original model's otherwise comprehensive set of sensors. Factor in the sleek design, and this fitness tracker has...
Accurate distance and HRM tracking, Vibrant display, Useful activity tracking and prompts, Great notification management
Lacking training insight, Spotty bodyweight exercise rep counting
Samsung Gear Fit2 – Software and apps As mentioned, the Fit2 runs on Samsung's own Tizen operating system, much like its new Gear S3 smartwatch. It feels slick and intuitive on the Fit2, and you can customise the widgets or change the watch face to your l...
