    Samsung was pretty confident in the wearable devices segment. It was one of the first big-name electronics brands to jump onto the smartwatch and fitness tracker bandwagon. It released various Tizen-based smartwatches and fitness trackers over the past few years. Last year, it launched the Gear S3 and the Gear Fit 2. Now, the company seems to be working on a slightly improved variant of the Gear Fit 2.

    Samsung's new wearable (most probably a fitness tracker) devices with model number SM-R365 passed through FCC certification yesterday. It could be called Gear Fit 2 Pro when it launches. Going by its model number and its overall design, it is most probably a slightly improved version of the Gear Fit 2 (SM-R360). It features single-band Wi-Fi b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.2 LE. It also comes with an optical heart rate monitor, similar to all other Gear Fit devices.

    Nothing much is known about the devices right now, but we will report back as soon as we get to know more about the fitness tracker.
