The most thorough Galaxy Fit 3 leak yet pits Samsung's next big wearable against a key rival

The most thorough Galaxy Fit 3 leak yet pits Samsung’s next big wearable against a key rival،

You may find this hard to believe, but the Galaxy Fit 3 is always not official despite leaking high-quality renders for the first time over three whole months ago. Since then, Samsung's next big wearable device has had almost all of its specs, features, and capabilities revealed… more than once, even starring in an actual hands-on video before its actual announcement.

This isn't something that typically happens with “rudimentary” activity trackers, but then again, this isn't a very “typical” (let alone rudimentary) fitness band, as shown in this way. very detailed in yet another MASSIVE information leak today.

Galaxy Fit 3 vs Galaxy Fit 2 – what's new, what's happening unchanged

If you don't really remember the “deal” with 2020's Galaxy Fit 2, that's either due to the advanced age of Samsung's previous Fitbit alternative or its general lack of mass appeal. By 2020 standards, the Fit 2 wasn't terrible… but it wasn't great either, brilliant in the battery life department and disappointing just about everywhere else.

The Galaxy Fit 3 aims to solve this problem by improving almost everything about its predecessor and not suffering big problems in terms of endurance between charges. That's right, it looks like you'll “only” be able to squeeze up to 13 days of “typical” usage out of the Fit 3's 208 mAh cell, which isn't comparable. extremely favorably with the 15-day battery life of a Galaxy Fit 2 which actually packs a smaller 159mAh ticker.

Of course, 13 days is way more than virtually any of the best smartwatches currently available can realistically promise on a single charge, and Samsung's 15-day downgrade is easy to justify when you take into account all expected internal upgrades. consideration.

The Galaxy Fit 3 will first and foremost sport an incredibly large and sharp 1.6-inch display with a resolution of 402 x 256 pixels while adding emergency SOS functionality, fall detection capabilities, Find My support Device and blood oxygen monitoring compared to its rather basic model. precursor.

The sleep tracking technology already present on the Galaxy Fit 2 will be enriched with snoring detection and global “coaching”, while in terms of training modes, the Galaxy Fit 3 should strengthen its sleep monitoring capabilities. automatic and manual supervision.

Incredibly, the Galaxy Fit 3 will be 10 percent thinner and 46 percent larger than the Fit 2, with its sturdier aluminum body of course taking on a bit more weight compared to the old plastic construction to rock it weighs 36.8 grams (with its plastic strap included).

Galaxy Fit 3 vs Fitbit Charge 6 – keeping up with the competition

Does the Galaxy Fit 3 have what it takes to become the world's best fitness tracker in 2024? Samsung certainly thinks so, and based on all the documents leaked today, it's pretty hard for us to disagree.

The relatively popular and reasonably well-reviewed Fitbit Charge 6, for example, doesn't appear to offer many (theoretical) advantages over its next rival, with a smaller, much lower resolution screen, worse battery life, a bigger screen. profile, a number of missing sensors and a big deficit in terms of training versatility.

But (and it's a big “but”), it doesn't look like Samsung will implement standalone GPS connectivity on the Galaxy Fit 3, as the FitbitCharge 6 supports, helping its wearers accurately monitor their runs and other outdoor workouts without a smartphone nearby.

This is a very important corner that Samsung probably needed to cut in order to keep this thing affordable, which is actually the only major question left unanswered. How much the Galaxy Fit 3 costs could mean the difference between commercial success and failure in more ways than an additional auto workout mode or the ability to detect your snoring, so stay tuned for confirmation… and everything else in the near future.
