It will be better if you use light background for you video. Since the galaxy fit is black and you use dark green plate on background, i cant see it clearly.
Oh no doubt S3 is a great device and has more features than this fit. But I've had personal problems with fitness tracking on the S3 (doesn't pick up my heart rate effectively maybe due to how much hair I have). The fit does a great job at fitness tracking for me, and feels alot more comfortable when exercising opposed to the massive 46mm watch
When i saw this galaxy fit ads, i just gonna sell my xiaomi miband 3 and buy this galaxy fit. But after watching your review... i think i'll pass. Don't get me wrong, i am a big fan of Samsung. Btw thanks for review! 🤗
I was deciding whether to upgrade my Fitbit Alta HR to the Charge 3 until I saw your unboxing video. My question is whether does it analyze sleep patterns as well as HR resting like the Fitbit app does...
It does analyze sleep patterns like Fitbit does. And I'm not so sure on its resting heart rate capabilities. I think it takes it too literal and tells you your resting heart rate is just the lowest reading it finds.
@@542317 I do agree with you that Fitbit's app has more analysis and a cleaner presentation with it, however both apps do provide valuable information. I think as long as you utilize it efficiently and learn to rely on your own body's signs, you'll be fine. Often, it seems that people ignore their own feelings and progress with the data a wearable presents. I'm even thinking about switching from my Fitbit Ionic to the Galaxy Fit.
DEATH never had a chance to use those. These fits definitely have a smaller form factor but the first fits seem to have a much better screen experience
@@ShaneSymonds that's just terrible. I have bought for Samsung charging pads and now this tracker that is marketed as wirelessly chargable requires its own cable. And that cable isn't even a USB C one but something specific for this device? Yikes. That's no good
@@Skv86 but it's not marketed as wirelessly chargeable...that's the Galaxy Watch Active and Galaxt Watch. Get your products and facts correct. The Fit is alot smaller, what do you expect? It's still an overall great watch.
That's what I was thinking. It has an AMOLED screen so you'll never really see the bezels when using it but it would have been awesome to see screen on the entire front
This is a nice video. It could benefit from better audio quality. And if you could do a kore in depth video of battery life. How easy the charging is. Is it compatible with s10 reverse wireless charging. How well does it track activities and stuff. Thanks
As far as I know you can add as many of the activities found on the Samsung health app to the fit as you wish. So after your set up is done, choose any workout you want directly from the band
Have you had any issues with the step tracking? Got my fit yesterday. Did not reset steps at midnight and then randomly reset during the morning, around 10 or so
What's the point if these watches?? I know it sounds like a DUMB question but just curious why would anyone want to count their steps?? What's the benefit in that??
I've got the Honor band 4 and it's basically exactly like Galaxy fit (colored screen as well) with the only differences being with the charging and the band. I got mine for 26€. Sticking with mine too, 99€ just isn't worth it.
I just bought mine 2 days ago, and the charger somehow got damged, one of the metal rods got stuked inside, from me trying to connect the carger to the watch, i don't know what to do:(
That's amazing, so the only difference with the Galaxy watch active is the size, that does not support 3rd party apps like Spotify and the watch faces?
Outro will be completely changed in a few videos from now, currently transitioning from Mac/imovie to windows/premier pro. That outro was made in keynote lol
It takes your heart rate and you enter how you're feeling and it provides a stress level for you. But honestly idk how well it works considering I've been happy, entered my mood as happy, and it comes back saying I'm angry. Maybe someone else can chime in on the stress feature? I think it's gimmick-y if you ask me.
I personally prefer the look of the Gear S3 watch though. It looks more rugged, high quality and better. And also this watch looks a whole lot like my smart watch which is a WeLoop something something. And it's like $100 USD.
Although they have things in common, Gear S3 and Fit are very different devices for different people. The Fit will get it done for those strictly wanting a simple fitness tracker, alarm in the morning, and notification reader. Gear S3 gives you an entire smartwatch experience. For $100 more the gear S3 is providing a lot more.
Does anybody else get a heart icon on screen and then the heart rate monitor(set to always monitoring) stops working for a while? In the S-health app, it shows a gap in the heart rate graph. Anyone knows a fix or why does this happen? thx
They have similar features but honestly they are completely different devices. You can engage alot more with the Gear S3 whereas the Fit is moreso something that let's you collect fitness/sleep/diet data quickly and effectively without lugging around something large on your wrist
@@ShaneSymonds Thanks for replying. Sounds about right; pretty sure the only thing I'll miss from the Gear S3 is Samsung Pay and answering the odd call.
I will give you an opinion on Galaxy Fit e, it's bugged, doesn't have touchscreen (there is a vibration sensor, it senses tap as touch), can't start sport activity tracking from it, has small display, few display faces, black and white display which is awful and not good looking on men. But it has small prices, which is for someone big plus. Personally I returned it. If you are buying this, don't expect it'll be useful for something not sport related.
I'm interested in using this band as a sleep tracker. Is there an ability to manually start a sleep tracking? (I don't like automatic sleep tracking) On gear s3, I put it in good night mode and then it tracks my sleep. That's the way to go for me
Most people are right handed and wear the watch on their left arm. I myself am left handed and wear the watch on my right arm. Why does this anger you?
It will be better if you use light background for you video. Since the galaxy fit is black and you use dark green plate on background, i cant see it clearly.
Fair point. Thank you for the feedback!
Nice Unboxing
Nice video
Nice commentry
Nice comment
Thanks for watching!
You have a S3 Frontier that already doubles as a fitness tracker and with the recent update it now has one ui.
Oh no doubt S3 is a great device and has more features than this fit. But I've had personal problems with fitness tracking on the S3 (doesn't pick up my heart rate effectively maybe due to how much hair I have). The fit does a great job at fitness tracking for me, and feels alot more comfortable when exercising opposed to the massive 46mm watch
Useful video ! I have a mi band 4 . Should I buy the Samsung Galaxy Fit ? Is it better in your opinion ?
Nice video 👍 thank you for going over its features. Can't wait for the fitness review!
Fitness review coming at the start of the week!
@@ShaneSymonds awesome man!! I'm looking forward to it.
When i saw this galaxy fit ads, i just gonna sell my xiaomi miband 3 and buy this galaxy fit. But after watching your review... i think i'll pass. Don't get me wrong, i am a big fan of Samsung. Btw thanks for review! 🤗
Thanks for your input and thanks for watching! My review video on the fit is up if you're still thinking about it.
mi band 4 is launching soon in other countries
@@jaspalsinghuppli yeah. And mi band 4 avengers edition is amazing! Looking good!
@@cdy2022 yah looking forward to buying it
Xiaomi band 4 or samsung fit better?
Nice video! I have one question, how many apps do you need to install to work with the band? And how many storage do they take up? Thanks a lot! ☺️
Estará disponible en México?
The galaxy fit comes with some protection on the screen? Some plastic or anything similiar? Thanks for the video!!!
Hey there ! nice unboxing. Have a question though. Can I use this watch even If I am underwater?
It is "swim ready" and has a 5 ATM water resistance which can withstand water pressure up to 50m/165ft.
Well, yes but actually no.
this thing is same with xiaomi and huwaei bands . It has also the same price .. So one company makes it for all and just change the logo each time .
Stupid
Agreed except I do like the experience with the wearables app.
Well you atleast have complete transparency with one of those companies
can it be used for swimming, showering etc..? still working well?
I am thinking to buy a small sport watch for the gym .. I think this will be good for me
thanks
does it work with Nokia phones or it works with Samsung only
Thanks for the review. Is there any option to keep the screen always on with the time shown? Thanks!!
I haven't seen an option for that
Better to buy amazfit. They have translucent display. You will be able to see the watch screen 24/7
Shane Symonds please doa review on these AirPods lookalikes www.jukebuds.com/product-page/ultimatebuds
I wanted to know this as well - deal breaker for me
Hi, wich one do you recomend. Galaxy Fit or Galaxy active?
I want to download a different watch face like in mi band 5 what can i do
Which phone are you using?
Great unboxing Shane. Nice product from Samsung. 👀
Still wearing it now!
I was deciding whether to upgrade my Fitbit Alta HR to the Charge 3 until I saw your unboxing video. My question is whether does it analyze sleep patterns as well as HR resting like the Fitbit app does...
It does analyze sleep patterns like Fitbit does. And I'm not so sure on its resting heart rate capabilities. I think it takes it too literal and tells you your resting heart rate is just the lowest reading it finds.
@@JorgeFlores-jr3mz Thanks for your reply. It does sound like the device is great but app wise, Fitbit does a better job where analysis is concerned.
@Mike Strawson That is true. Thanks for your reply.

Can you tell us how to set up sleep tracking on this device ? I’m having difficulty doing this. Thanks.
hey there nice video
if possible I want u to do unboxing of the series 5 apple watch nike plus
I liked the very first fit with the curve display better
DEATH never had a chance to use those. These fits definitely have a smaller form factor but the first fits seem to have a much better screen experience
Hi Shane me having sumsung smart galaxy watch now looking for fitband too should I go for Samsung or Mi am really confused help me out ...!!!!
Is there a feature for when u listen to music, play, pause, back and skip button??
There is not sadly.
Hello IAM from Bangladesh . Like your video . What price of that in Bangladesh
Which band should I buy mi band 4 or Samsung fit please tell me
Can you charge it using a Qi wireless charger or the wireless powershare of the Samsung S10?
You'll have to charge it with the charger provided.
@@ShaneSymonds that's just terrible. I have bought for Samsung charging pads and now this tracker that is marketed as wirelessly chargable requires its own cable. And that cable isn't even a USB C one but something specific for this device? Yikes. That's no good
@@Skv86 but it's not marketed as wirelessly chargeable...that's the Galaxy Watch Active and Galaxt Watch. Get your products and facts correct. The Fit is alot smaller, what do you expect? It's still an overall great watch.
Oh? I thought the galaxy fit's screen is full to the edge.-.
That's what I was thinking. It has an AMOLED screen so you'll never really see the bezels when using it but it would have been awesome to see screen on the entire front
Nice unboxing. What are your views on the galaxy watch active?
Thanks Charles! Honestly never had any interest in it.
hey,what model of Samsung it is?
Does it have a VO2 Max feature that Fitbit Inspire HR has? Have you tried Inspire HR and how does it compare to this since they're similar prices?
What is VO2? And my last activity tracker was the Fitbit charge 2, which was more expensive that this fit and the fit is arguably a better experience
excellent Review I wish it could release in India also
Is the Fit e available in India?
@@ShaneSymonds no they didn't release fit and fit e in India
Shane Symonds not yet still waiting..
Whats the model # on this unit? It seems like there's several kinds. Thanks!
Could you please put the link of the app in the bio:)??
This is a nice video. It could benefit from better audio quality. And if you could do a kore in depth video of battery life. How easy the charging is. Is it compatible with s10 reverse wireless charging. How well does it track activities and stuff. Thanks
All this is coming with the 7 day review video which will drop after the weekend
Can it do reverse charges? With phone?
Nice Review man. One question. How many sports can you choose directly from the band?
As far as I know you can add as many of the activities found on the Samsung health app to the fit as you wish. So after your set up is done, choose any workout you want directly from the band
Have you had any issues with the step tracking? Got my fit yesterday. Did not reset steps at midnight and then randomly reset during the morning, around 10 or so
What's the point if these watches?? I know it sounds like a DUMB question but just curious why would anyone want to count their steps?? What's the benefit in that??
@@Unstoppable9000 by doing that we can see our calories, rage (km) etc.
I'm pretty sure the fitness features are fine but can it give an overview of your calendar agenda and set alarms, and countdowns?
7 day review will be out after the weekend.
Is there any NFC on the Watch
How can i change the pattern (when i turn on the watch that wrote the hour and all of this i want to change it for other pattern)?
You shold review the galaxy fit e aswell
Ended up ordering one off eBay since they don't seem to be in stores in US yet, unboxing and review coming at the end of the week
@@ShaneSymonds Ill make sure to remember to watch it
Still not on market yet . Would love to have it.
Picked mine up at a local Best buy here in the US .
Thanks
Does it have the same silicon band size with the Fit E?
Yes
Are there a silence mode for phone?
You can turn on do not disturb from the fit
Thanks
Is the screen made of glass or of plastic?Can someone answer please,i want to know if i need to buy a screen protector
What the app name please
Great unboxing Shane! it would be good to see a full review which is probably in the making
In due time yes!
@@ShaneSymonds Cant wait to see that, there are literally no other videos on this yet.
Is it came on amazon for sale!??
Plzz tell us
Not on amazon yet.
I have a question, since the galaxy fit charge by wireless charging, can we charge it from the galaxy s10 ??
Can
Can I pair this and my galaxy buds both to my phone at the same time?
yes
1. How do we get it? Samsung.com doesn't show it yet.
2. Does it track floors climbed?
Got mine at a local best buy, other than that I havent seen it anywhere else yet honestly.
It don't track floors
The screen is so small... With thick bezzel, guess I'll stay with my Mi Band 3 for now.
How is the mi band 3?
MiBand 3 is the better and cheaper option. Only thing Galaxy Fit is better right now is a colored display.
I've got the Honor band 4 and it's basically exactly like Galaxy fit (colored screen as well) with the only differences being with the charging and the band. I got mine for 26€. Sticking with mine too, 99€ just isn't worth it.
@@homiu4 I totally agree. There are so many cheaper and better alternatives out there.
any ideas when its going to avail
I got mine here in the US at a local Best buy.
Cool unboxing, thanks for the info - a young gurman man, named nyk fck would enjoy this video.
I just bought mine 2 days ago, and the charger somehow got damged, one of the metal rods got stuked inside, from me trying to connect the carger to the watch, i don't know what to do:(
What phone you use?
Currently using One Plus 7 Pro.
What is that phone ur using ??
One Plus 7 Pro
Oh okk bro
Good band and good review
Thanks for watching!
That's amazing, so the only difference with the Galaxy watch active is the size, that does not support 3rd party apps like Spotify and the watch faces?
It's honestly a pretty different product but it's compatibility with wearables app and Samsung health make it very familiar
Can use for NFC Samsung payment?
No samsung pay on these fits.
@@ShaneSymonds TQ for reply :)
And BTW you should make the squares in the end of the video a bit larger
Outro will be completely changed in a few videos from now, currently transitioning from Mac/imovie to windows/premier pro. That outro was made in keynote lol
Bro How the stress management works in it?
It takes your heart rate and you enter how you're feeling and it provides a stress level for you. But honestly idk how well it works considering I've been happy, entered my mood as happy, and it comes back saying I'm angry. Maybe someone else can chime in on the stress feature?

Thx for the unboxing ! Do you know if the watch can count the number of strokes when you swim ? Can it detect which swimming "style" you are doing ?
It will count your strokes
Can you change the watch faces in the watch itself
No, alot of things are done on the app
Does anybody else get a heart icon on screen and then the heart rate monitor(set to always monitoring) stops working for a while? In the S-health app, it shows a gap in the heart rate graph. Anyone knows a fix or why does this happen? thx
A champion
When you get it released can you review the fit e, it's supposed to be a even cheaper one
Maybe! Haven't decided.
Plz review fit e...
Can i use galaxy fit for music remote control
There is 3rd party app at play store called fit control for controlling music app through galaxy fit.
Samsung Galaxy Fit or Mi Band 4?
Great unboxing video. Quick question: does the fit have a stopwatch?
Hi Shane, physical size aside, how does it compare it to the Gear S3? I too own a Gear S3.
I've preordered a Fit so hopefully it compares favorably.
They have similar features but honestly they are completely different devices. You can engage alot more with the Gear S3 whereas the Fit is moreso something that let's you collect fitness/sleep/diet data quickly and effectively without lugging around something large on your wrist
@@ShaneSymonds Thanks for replying.
Sounds about right; pretty sure the only thing I'll miss from the Gear S3 is Samsung Pay and answering the odd call.
what is better mi band 4 or galaxy fit?
Not sure yet! Have the mi band 4 on order.
Does it have Stopwatch functionality
Yes it does!
I is love samsung galaxy Gear fit
Is it good?
It has been good!
I buy, thx
Any music playback controls?
I want to know as well
i wanna know too!
No
Can anyone tell about its price... plz
0:20
Need help mine ain't charging. Bought 2 months ago
What can you do on it
It is a fitness tracker
I am using gear fit 2
How is it?
@@ShaneSymonds yeah its better than fit bigger display but battery time 1.5 days only
That battery life is too short in my opinion . And it's also a bigger device but I'd prefer that if it provides more functionality which it does
Can you do a video of galaxy fit vs xiaomi mi band 3?
Is the galaxy fit worth upgrading from a gear fit 2 pro? Earned a new subbed btw
It seems, galaxy fit is cheaper version, than fit 2 pro, it has smaller screen than fit 2 pro..
is it worth it?
It's worth it but I wouldn't recommend it to everybody. 7 day review is coming after the weekend
Should of worn a watch on both wrist lol ultimate samsung flex.
What if I told u that u can get it for €35
is that galaxy A80?
I think it is
One plus 7 pro
Great video! Can u make an unboxing for Galaxy Fit E and give an opinion on which one is better? Thank you
I haven't seen it available in US yet
I will give you an opinion on Galaxy Fit e, it's bugged, doesn't have touchscreen (there is a vibration sensor, it senses tap as touch), can't start sport activity tracking from it, has small display, few display faces, black and white display which is awful and not good looking on men. But it has small prices, which is for someone big plus. Personally I returned it. If you are buying this, don't expect it'll be useful for something not sport related.

On gear s3, I put it in good night mode and then it tracks my sleep.
That's the way to go for me
That's what I did last night and it worked perfectly fine. Never touched anything on my phone or the wearables app.
Great video but you should unbox it a little bit slower so it would be more satisfying AND DON'T TROW THINGS AROUND. But still good video
Hope the heart rate monitor is better than the galxey watch
Just went for a run and the HR monitor is GREAT. So happy about this
Chronometer??
It is a time piece , yes
@@ShaneSymonds really? Beacuse in the video in dont see

Hello from Italy! Can you tell me the real autonomy without workout tracking, just with all notifies on...?? I hope it lasts at least 3-4 days..!!
Advertised battery is 7 days. After 2 full day's I'm at 63% right now

I'm mad about the fact you wear your watch on your right arm. Right. Arm. The left arm is the watch arm.
