There are a lot of activity wearables on the market but Samsung's latest effort delivers the features customers are looking for to help them track their fitness and reach their health goals.

I have had mine for about a year and the strap is the worst ever it unclips at least once a week I even bought aftermarket ones and the same thing

Fitness, like faith, remains a delusion unless it's tested; the training equally so, if not measured and recorded. But they should never be namesake, neither be your tracking gear. Among recent launches of new generation fitness trackers, the Samsung Gear Fit2 was announced at Note 7 launch in India...

Automatic exercise tracking; Refined design with a larger screen; Light and comfortable to wear; Standalone BT Audio playback and GPS for distance measurement

Only a couple of third party apps supported; Water resistant but not for swimming; Short backup duration of about 2 days

This is a great fitness band with loads of features and looks great as well on the wrist. My only major major concern is the auto tracking!! Yup, U head it right.. One of its main feature is a big problem.

As so, there you have it. A smart wearable by Samsung that hopes to give users a better look into their daily fitness. When taken in the context of fitness trackers, the Gear Fit 2 finds itself among an incredibly crowded market filled with companies that have a lot more experience in the fit world.

Easy to wear...able (ha) - Screen is well sized and easy to use - 4GB onboard storage for local music files - Can play music to Bluetooth headsets - Plenty of tools to track more than just workouts - Automatic tracking of activity and sleep

- Battery life largely varies depending on usage - Lack of apps in Tizen ecosystem - Heart rate tracking inaccurate during more intense workouts - Heart rate monitoring off for all but cardio activities - Replying to notifications is severely limited - No alarm despite sleep tracking

Samsung's wearables have been on the minds of the mainstream for years now, and it's this Gear lineup of products that Samsung likes to use for its latest accessories experiments and other wearable hardware.

Attractive design; Lightweight and comfortable; Gorgeous curved screen; 3-day or longer battery life; Significant additional functionality versus other fitness trackers; Comfortable band; S-Health integration is phenomenal; Automatic tracking is incredibly accurate; Stats tracked are accurate and...

App support is lacking at launch; Only a few watch faces to choose from; Always-on display drains too much battery; Clasp comes loose too easily

We were wolfing down lunch in a dank Austin chilli parlor, and I flicked my wrist. The time flashed, blue and bright on the OLED screen, and my friend's eyes darted to the wearable. "What is that," she asked - her interest piqued - her need for some perfect blend of Fitbit and Apple Watch apparent.

Samsung has taken a bold step and is competing with a large number of fitness makers and some who are experts in the field. While the first Gear Fit didn't turn things for the company, the new Gear Fit 2 seems like a promising device.

In the world of wearables, Fitbit is one of the most common names – it has achieved near ubiquity with the term ‘fitness trackers', which in turn has helped it become the obvious leader in the market.

Built-in GPS; Tracks a lot of types of exercise; AMOLED screen looks great and makes navigation a breeze; Extended notification support

Store region-locking is frustrating; Can't track swimming; Display is weak outdoors

This item has too many flaws and inaccuracies to be of any use for its designated purpose. It could be used as a basic pedometer, but all other functions are wildly inaccurate. The screen can't be viewed in daylight and it illuminating randomly at night is very irritating.
