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 smartwatch.
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.
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 third-party apps; This really limits what it can do; The battery life is middling at best.
