The editors didn't like

  • Too many charging components
  • Limited to Samsung devices
  • Angle of screen is slightly awkward
  • 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
  • Fitness tracking is not on par with others
  • Exercise tracking and pedometer are less accurate
  • Compatibility limited to Samsung devices only
  • Pricey
  • Heartsensor is dishearteningly slow
  • Sleep tracking does not yield much usable data
  • Proprietary charger. Reading emails is a little awkward on the display and not easy to manage. Software could use a more than a few tweaks to make it more intuitive. Like most smart watches
  • Battery life could be better
  • Inaccurate data logging
  • Confusing
  • Opaque interface functions
  • Poor battery life
  • Display orientation is not ideal

  • Phone notifications, Good looks, Curved AMOLED display, Lots of accessories,
  • Poor sleep tracking, Accuracy issues, Limited analytics, Fiddly charging component,
  • So, is it a top wearable? There's so much to like about the Samsung Gear Fit but its greatest strengths are those that matter least. The mobile notifications and utilities are the best in field but it's a little behind in the actual fitness applications...

  • Great design, beautiful display in right conditions, simple and fluid interface, built-in heart-rate monitor, interchangeable straps, good price, some smartwatch functions
  • Some Samsung device compatibility only, no auto brightness, battery life not amazing, fitness features limited, lack of apps, restricted to S Health (Samsung' s app) only, accuracy questionable at times, no altimeter
  • The Gear Fit offers a slim design, beautiful display and a fluid interface that's quick and easy to navigate. As its name suggests, it's a device focused on fitness, but here it's Samsung's way or the highway: the Gear Fit is only compatible with so...

  • The Gear Fit's curved Super AMOLED display looks great, and it's responsive and bright too. It wraps around your wrist, making for a more natural fit than other smartwatches. Inside, it's easy to read, but sunlight completely kills the screen. That means
  • While Samsung has pretty much nailed the hardware, the software leaves a lot to be desired. It runs Samsung's own OS – not Tizen or Android – which means it can't use thirdparty apps. This really limits what it can do, The battery life is middling at best
  • The Gear Fit looks the part, but when it comes to results, it doesn't make the podium. Like many Samsung devices, it's a jack of all trades, master of none. Its fitness skills are left wanting, while the screen is too cramped to make it a decent smartwatc...

  • Great screen, Decent design, Smooth performance, Good fitness features, Water proof
  • Specifically pairs with Samsung S Health equipped smartphone (Galaxy S5) and doesn't do anything the phone can't do, Expensive
  • So what do I reckon then? Well, one thing which really colours my viewpoint is the price. I've seen it go for as low as £150 in a few places online, but Samsung's RRP of £199 appears to be more common across the web and that's quite steep for what you ...
