The hardware is near-perfect. Really, all it's missing is an ambient light sensor, and maybe a mic for quick replies to email. But the screen is lovely, the band is comfortable, and the whole thing just looks great. Four days of battery life is totally re
The software is unforgivably bad. Tragically bad. It feels as if the Gear Fit and the S Health teams barely spoke to each other at all. Which is especially bedeviling since Samsung made the conscious choice to sell a wearable product that only works with
No. Absolutely not. This incredibly promising device is utterly ruined by bad software. Also, it's £180. If Samsung does a major software overhaul—and I mean from the ground up—then it could be a great device. But for now, the fact that it only works with...
Part smartwatch, part fitness tracker, Very, very pretty, Smartwatch notifications are nicely done
Needs a supported Samsung device, Requires two apps to use fully, Short battery life
I really enjoyed fiddling with the Gear Fit in the first few days that I tested it – lifting my arm quickly to turn on the screen and see the time, swiping through the screens, taking my heart rate every so often – but a few frustrations and disappointme...
VERDICT Open Gallery When we first saw the Samsung Gear Fit, we saw a light, wearable fitness device with a unique curved screen and the ability to work seamlessly with Samsung phones. What we got was a light, but quite bulky, wearable device. It...

Attractive curved screen and good looks, lightweight, changeable strap, water and dust proof
Leather strap option would have been nice, no option to add thirdparty apps, no option to filter messages, accelerator doesn't always activate screen when you move
The Samsung Gear Fit manages that difficult hat trick of being genuinely useful, while being technically advanced and actually desirable. It passes the test as a smart-looking and smart-acting watch, but also packs in a range of health-related data gath...
Abstract: The Gear Fit might just be the first piece of wearable technology we actually looked forward to putting on. Ever since getting our first look at the device at the Samsung Galaxy S5 launch event, we couldn't wait to see if there was a smart watch success b...
Abstract: When Samsung revealed the Galaxy S5, they also unveiled three other products, all of which were wearable's. These make up the new Gear range, and while two are all-out smartwatches, the other is focused more towards fitness. However, unlike similar device...
I need to spend a bit more time with the Gear Fit before I can cast a proper judgement but so far it's making for a nifty fitness companion. The limit to Samsung devices will be a bugbear for a lot of people, especially when they see how nice that screen...

The Gear Fit has a forward-looking design, many more extras than the average fitness band, and the ability to measure heart rate. Its curved AMOLED display looks fantastic, too
The long display means text reads awkwardly on your wrist. The Fit only works with certain Samsung phones. Can't load apps, so you're stuck with the features included. And the price is high, so much so that you might consider a cheaper alternative or the
The Samsung Gear Fit is a great-looking wearable that doesn't quite successfully reconcile its dual roles as activity tracker and smartwatch....
Water resistant, Decent battery life, Useful as a second screen
Heart rate monitor doesn't always work, No third-party apps
Wearables are still a bit of a difficult subject. While they are still yet to enrich our lives like the smartphone has, they remain massively cool gadgets.The Gear Fit sits right at the top of the cool pile, delivering just enough functionality to justify...

Abstract: Over time, the Galaxy Gear was upgraded substantially with new software. Today the new Gear drops the ‘Galaxy' epithet because it runs software called Tizen rather than Android, although the difference is imperceptible.More GearSamsung Galaxy S5 review:...
