Smarter and sleeker than a Fitbit, Samsung's Gear Fit 2 is our favorite fitness tracker.

Wide curved display shows stats; Heart rate tracking; Tons of fitness metrics; Notification support; 3 day battery life

Still too big for the small wristed; The interface is too dense; No iOS support -- yet

Samsung's first effort, the Gear Fit , was an attractive and functional fitness tracker held back by some irritating limitations. Chief among them was the fact that you needed a Samsung Galaxy phone to use it. Samsung has solved this issue, along with many others, with the Gear Fit2 ($179.99).

Sharp, colorful display; Comfortable; Doesn't require a Samsung phone; Integrated GPS and heart rate monitor; Standalone music player with Bluetooth streaming capability

No iOS support; Few additional apps or watch faces available at launch; Narrow screen results in cramped, awkward layouts; Heart rate monitoring isn't continuous

Wearable devices today generally fall into two categories: fitness trackers or smartwatches. Since many people are looking for different features and functions, the fact that there are so many different devices with varying features is not surprising.

I bought this fitness band close to 6 months ago, it stated it has 4 days battery life. That is not a true statement. If you put the band on power saving mode after your workout, you will get a day and half at best.

Very sleek, and comfortable but unfortunately not very accurate. It was constantly adding floors to what my floor counter when I hadn't gone up any. By the end of one of my days using this, I was at 34... I had not climbed any stairs. The calorie counter is also very inaccurate.

solid construction.all functions work well.nice looking.

Between the Gear S3 Frontier and the Gear IconX smart headphones Samsung already has a healthy collection of wearable tech to hand. The Samsung Gear Fit 2, however, is something different. Not just from what Samsung has on offer, but different from the rest of the market too.

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

Update : Rumor has it, Samsung is prepping its next wearable. While we fully expect to see the Samsung Gear S4 within the year, there's also word of a new type of wrist-based tech coming.

The Gear Fit 2 has some unique features, the system allows for noting down water and caffeine intake during the day and makes it possible to factor these into overall health.
