Samsung Galaxy Fit3 Bridges The Gap Between Tracker & Smartwatch

Samsung’s new fitness tracker, the Fit3 is a marked improvement over the Fit2. Its objective according to the Korean smartphone maker is to democratize its advanced health monitoring technology to everyone for them to be the best version of themselves.

Compared to its predecessor, it’s a leap forward in terms of technology, screen legibility, and usability due to the presence of a large physical side button. The tracker boasts an aluminium body and 45% larger display (1.6-inch), which users can use to keep track of their health and wellness data.

Despite the larger size, Samsung claims that it’s lightweight and comfortable to wear, allowing it to fit into most people’s daily routine.

The 208mAh battery can last up to 13 days on a single charge. And like any other Samsung wearable users can make the Fit3 their own by personalizing the display with their favourite watch face from over 100 presets or set their own photos the background. Users can also mix and match bands, which should be easy to do thanks to the quick release buttons.

Though it’s a fitness tracker instead of a full-fledged smartwatch, the Fit3 always helps you to monitor your quality of sleep. This lets wearers prioritize sleep for better wellness and adapt to healthier habits with advanced sleep monitoring tools.

Sleep Tracking
Samsung’s Galaxy Fit3 can track a wearer’s sleep patterns, detect snoring, and monitor blood oxygen levels. These detailed measurements allow users to monitor their quality of sleep each night and adjust where necessary. Its personalized Sleep Coaching provides useful insights for wearers to better understand their sleep.

Fitness & Durability
In terms of fitness routines, the Fit3 can track over 100 types of workouts. Since it has a 5ATM rating and IP68-rated water and dust resistance, wearing it while at the gym or during outdoor activities in a variety of environments, shouldn’t be a problem. There’s also tracking for heart rate and stress levels, which is especially useful to prevent overtraining.

Two nice additions to the features list are Fall Detection and Emergency SOS. This allows the Fit3 to detect abnormal falls and prove an option to call emergency services. You can also send an SOS by pressing the side button five times.

The Fit3’s Bluetooth connectivity allows it to take on various side roles like functioning as a remote shutter button for a smartphone’s camera, setting timers and controlling media on connected devices. And if you misplace your smartphone, easily locate it with the Find My Phone on the Galaxy Fit3.

Samsung is pricing the Fit3 at RM299 and should already be on store shelves around the country.

It’s available in three color options: gray, silver, and pink gold. Samsung will be having a special promotion until April 30, 2024, which lets buyers enjoy a 30% discount on the Fit3 when making their purchase on Samsung Online Store, Samsung Experience Stores, and other participating stores.
