Samsung Galaxy Fit3 Review: Reliable and Easy-to-use Fitness Tracker
Samsung’s contributions to the evolution of wearable fitness technology have come a long way since its predecessor, the Galaxy Fit2. With a sleeker aluminum design, larger display, and additional advanced features, the newly released Galaxy Fit3 can be a helpful companion whether you’re a beginner wanting to start your fitness journey, or a seasoned athlete aiming to crush your goals.
After a week of using Samsung Galaxy Fit3 and testing several features, here are our first impressions:
Design and Comfort:
Immediately noticeable is how large the Galaxy Fit3’s screen is compared to the previous version. With a 1.6” AMOLED display, it was a breeze to tap and swipe through the Galaxy Fit3’s plethora of features. The screen is also bright enough to view even when you’re out walking on a sunny day.
The Galaxy Fit3 has a new aluminum body that feels premium, and at 18.5g, it feels light and comfortable to wear. It comes in 3 different colors (we got the silver!) not to mention the colorful watch faces you can choose from.
Fitness Companion:
The Galaxy Fit3 can track over 100 workouts and daily activities. We tried using the auto-detect workout on a typical gym day and it works surprisingly well. You can choose whether to auto-detect: walking, running, elliptical trainer, rowing machine, pool swim, and dynamic workouts. We tested it on the treadmill while doing various dynamic and weightlifting workouts, and the Galaxy Fit3 did great on tracking heart rate and calories burned.
One of the most overlooked aspects of fitness is sleep, and with the Galaxy Fit3’s sleep tracking, you can get insights on your sleep patterns. Sleep score and Sleep coaching can help you take control over your resting tendencies (It also tracks naps and afternoon sleep). Also because the watch is the perfect size and weight, you won’t mind wearing it while you sleep!
Stress Management
In today’s fast-paced world, managing stress is essential for maintaining health and productivity. The Galaxy Fit3 includes stress tracking and guided breathing exercises to help users unwind and relax, promoting mental clarity and emotional balance.
Notifications and Connectivity
The Galaxy Fit3’s seamless connectivity with your smartphone ensures you never miss an important message or update. Stay connected on the go with the Fit 3’s smart notifications feature, which alerts you to incoming calls, texts, and app notifications directly on your wrist.
Ease of Use:
Perhaps our favorite feature of the Galaxy Fit3 is how easy it is to use and how quick it is to get to where you want. The touch screen is very responsive and never lags, and you can access different menus through simple and intuitive gestures: Swipe right for Notifications, left for Tiles, down for Quick Panel and up for App List. For quick workouts, simply double-press the home button to get to the exercise list.
Samsung Galaxy Fit3 is now available in the Philippines and retails for Php 3,490.00
The Samsung Galaxy Fit3 is an all-around and reliable fitness tracker that goes beyond basic activity monitoring. With its sleek design, accurate tracking capabilities, and comprehensive features for fitness, sleep, and stress management, it serves as a valuable tool for anyone committed to leading a healthier and more balanced lifestyle.
