Samsung’s Gear Fit 2 was arguably one of the best fitness trackers available in the market when it was first released. Now, the company has doubled down on its investment into the fitness tech market with the release of the new Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro. The pro version adds a few new features that are perfect for hardcore fitness enthusiasts. This time around, the Fit 2 Pro sports a number of pre-installed fitness apps that let users get on with their activities faster. The new device also boasts a higher IP68 rating, allowing it to withstand any type of abuse.

Design

Compared to the standard Gear Fit smartwatch, the Fit 2 Pro looks pretty much unchanged. Its overall design remains relatively the same. This is not necessarily a bad thing given that the older model is one of the best-looking fitness bands around. The only physical change on the “Pro” version is the addition of a standard metal watch strap clasp instead of the latch. The Gear Fit 2 Pro sports the same Super AMOLED screen on the previous model. The screen is bright with good contrast. It is also clearly visible, even in direct sunlight.

Hardware Specs and Features

The Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro comes with all the bells and whistles expected of a true fitness tracker. As previously mentioned, the watch does come with a number of pre-installed apps. This includes apps for different workouts, such as MapMyRun, Speedo Go, UA Record, and Endomondo. The watch also comes with a number of sensors, including an accurate GPS sensor and a heart rate monitor.

The watch can also function as a traditional smartwatch when paired with a smartphone. Users can set it up to receive different notifications, such as texts and social media updates. Users can also use it to stream different music services. Samsung has also graciously added 4GB of onboard storage. This allows users to bring their music with them during their workouts.

Samsung has dramatically increased the Pro version’s IP 68 rating. The Fit 2 Pro now sports a MIL-STD 810G certification. This means that the watch will be perfect for swimmers and water sports enthusiasts. The watch can now withstand 5ATM of water pressure and has no problems with salt water. Additionally, the heart rate monitor functions even when the watch is under water. As for its battery life, the Fit 2 Pro can last up to five days when used as a traditional smart watch. For more extreme usage, with GPS enabled, the watch can still last for a few days.

Pros

  • Same attractive design
  • MIL-STD 810G certification
  • Internal storage for music
  • Pre-installed fitness apps

Cons

  • Difficult to set up
  • Expensive compared to other fitness bands

Conclusion

The Samsung Gear Fit 2 Pro is definitely a device to consider buying. Water sports enthusiasts and swimmers will appreciate its added durability to the elements. While there are other fitness bands that are cheaper, the Fit 2 Pro does provide a lot more bang for the buck to users. With its various features, the Fit 2 Pro is currently one of the best fitness bands out in the market to date.
