Samsung has unveiled the new Galaxy Fit 2 watch, which features a streamlined design that focuses on fitness rather than integrating multiple functionalities.
By stripping back the features on the watch, Samsung is able to offer a longer-lasting battery, which means consumers don't have to worry about scheduling time to power up their device before they use it to track their workouts. The watch is able to track five types of workouts, provide information on calories burned, monitor heart rate, and keep track of distance. The watch also includes a sleep analysis feature, and can display calls and phone notifications.
The slim AMOLED touch screen is held in place with an adjustable silicone band, which are offered in an array of different colorways to suit consumer preferences.
