Samsung Galaxy Fit 2 Revealed — What We Know About the New Fitbit Rival

The Samsung Galaxy Fit 2 is a new activity band designed to challenge Fitbit in the fitness tracking wearables market.

Announced during IFA, the Galaxy Fit 2 is a (presumably) cheaper alternative to the new Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 and Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2. Unlike its circular relatives, the Fit 2 looks more like a Fitbit or Xiaomi band, with its AMOLED, rounded rectangular display.

Samsung doesn't share much about the Fit 2 in terms of price and availability, but we do know that the upcoming fitness tracker will offer up to two weeks of battery life, over 70 different watch face designs, and automatic detection of five different workouts.

Like the first Samsung Galaxy Fit and most of the best fitness trackers out there, the Galaxy Fit 2 will provide metrics such as steps, heart rate, calories burned, and distance. It also offers sleep tracking, with daily analysis and personal sleep scores. This data can be viewed and managed through the Samsung Health app.

Supposedly, the Galaxy Fit 2 will be priced at about $100, competing with the upcoming Fitbit Inspire 2 and the all-new Amazon Halo Healthy Tracker.
