Samsung launched the Gear Fit wearable fitness tracker in 2014. The product was well received and it's about time that Samsung came out with an updated model. We first saw leaked images of the Gear Fit 2 about a month ago and renders of the device have leaked multiple times since then. Today, we can exclusively confirm the full specifications of the Gear Fit 2.

The Samsung Gear Fit 2 features a 1.55-inch 216 x 432 Curved Super AMOLED display with a Samsung 1GHz dual-core processor under the hood, it also has 512MB RAM, 2GB internal storage, and IP68 certification. For those who are unaware, IP68 certification guarantees that the device can be submerged in over 1.5-meters of water for half an hour, so the Gear Fit 2 will be a good fit for swimmers as well. The Gear Fit 2 has a 200mAh battery and runs Tizen 2.3. Aside from GPS and GLONASS it also features a heart rate sensor, gyroscope, barometer, and accelerometer.

No word as yet on the pricing or availability but Samsung is expected to launch the Gear Fit 2 in June.
