The Samsung Gear Fit is a fitness wristband made by Samsung Electronics, and forms part of their Samsung Gear family of smartwatch devices. It features a curved AMOLED display.[2] Its design was developed to appeal to people interested in fitness and style. The included applications facilitate monitoring fitness activities:

  • Heart Rate sensor
  • Pedometer
  • Exercise Standalone Modes: Running, Walking
  • Companion Modes: Cycling, Hiking
  • Sleep

Samsung stated that their Gear Fit is the "world's first" wearable device with a curved Super AMOLED touch display. It is smaller and lighter than the Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo smartwatches, and is focused on health. It features a 1.84-inch Super AMOLED display with a 432x128 pixel resolution. The Gear Fit comes with a pedometer, heart rate monitor, and a sleep monitor.

A 210mAh battery powers the Samsung Gear Fit, which gives a typical usage of 3 to 4 days and up to 5 days with low usage. The watch body measures 23.4 mm × 57.4 mm × 11.95 mm (0.92 in × 2.26 in × 0.47 in) and it weighs 27 g (0.95 oz).

Samsung introduced the Gear Fit to the market on April 11, 2014.[3]

In June 2016, Samsung announced its new Samsung Gear Fit 2. The activity tracker is the follow-up to the original Gear Fit, released in 2014. The new wristband has an updated design, built-in GPS, and the ability to automatically recognize certain activities, an increasingly common feature in fitness bands and watches.[4]
