SAMSUNG GALAXY FIT3
Gadgets Philippines|May 2024
There's something about smart bands that resonate with me. Beyond being a fitness tracker, its small form factor makes it a joy to wear for everyday use. There's also the connectivity between your phone and the band to allow you to monitor your notifications and messages. But what really gets me is the number of health monitors fitted on such a small device. Samsung has done that and more in their latest smart band, the Samsung Galaxy Fit3.

SAMSUNG GALAXY FIT3

DESIGN 

The Samsung Galaxy Fit3 has a pretty straightforward design. The main unit has a 1.6-inch display, which is covered by a 2.5D glass design (slightly curved).

The body is aluminum, making it lighter than most similar devices. The dimensions are 42.9 x 28.8 x 9.9mm, weighing around 18.5g (just the device) to 36.8g (with straps).

The 1.6-inch display is AMOLED with a 256 x 402 resolution. There's no brightness indicated on the spec sheet, but during testing, the display was visible even under direct sunlight. The bigger display was a joy to use, especially when reading messages. There are big bezels around the display, but it's surprisingly hard to spot immediately, thanks to the 2.5D glass design of the display.

The Samsung Galaxy Fit3's display is a touch screen. Navigation was fairly easy and returning to the watch face was no problem with the home button on the side. If you're a lefty who wears their watch on their right hand, Samsung has got your back. You can set the device display to cater to right-hand wear with the home button still pointing outward.

Underneath the main device, you'll find the main bulk of sensors and the strap release button. Samsung is selling different color variants of straps, but no metallic strap or any other strap variation is available.

The whole device is also waterproof, with an IP rating of IP68 and an ATM rating of 5 ATM. This means water exercises are no problem with the Samsung Galaxy Fit 3.

I would say the Samsung Galaxy Fit3 is alright in the looks department. The main unit is only available in the color grey. Our unit came with a silver strap, which surprisingly was easy to fit into whatever outfit I needed to wear.

HARDWARE 

Samsung has updated the Galaxy Fit3 with some neat new features that are otherwise found in much more expensive devices.
