Samsung Galaxy Fit launches in the US at last with reasonable price and robust features

Unveiled alongside the Galaxy Watch Active and Galaxy S10 smartphone lineup way back in February, the low-cost Samsung Galaxy Fit is only now going on sale stateside. This is aimed directly against the Fitbit Inspire HR at a recommended price of $99.99, and Samsung is probably hoping the activity tracker will help the company narrow the gap to brands like Xiaomi and Huawei in global sales of wearable devices.
You obviously don’t get a lot of premium smartwatch stuff, like standalone GPS connectivity, wrist payment support, or voice calling functionality. Incredibly enough, the Galaxy Fit is both extremely lightweight, at only 23 grams, and fairly robust, touting “military-grade” durability protecting the fitness band from bumps, dust, and extreme temperatures.
In addition to swimming, the waterproof wearable can automatically detect and monitor activities like walking, running, and cycling. It also tracks your sleep patterns, sending real-time alerts when detecting a high or low heart rate, and yet Samsung still advertises up to a week of battery endurance between charges.
