Galaxy Fit 2 to be launched in South Korea this week

Samsung had unveiled the Galaxy Fit 2 last month alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 2. Now, the company has announced that it will launch its new fitness tracker in South Korea this week. The Galaxy Fit 2 is priced at KRW 49,500 in the country, which translates to around $43.

The Galaxy Fit 2 will be available in Korea through Samsung Digital Plaza, Samsung’s online store, 11Street, Coupang, G Market, and Naver. Samsung’s latest affordable fitness tracker will be available in two colors: Black and Scarlet. Due to its already affordable price, the company doesn’t seem to be offering any pre-order benefits.

Samsung’s new fitness tracker features a slim and lightweight design. It features IP68 certification for dust and water resistance, and it comes equipped with an accelerometer, gyro, and a heart rate sensor. It can automatically record five types of workouts, including walking, running, and rowing. It can also track sleep, stress, and over 90 types of workouts. It is compatible with both Android and iOS.

The Galaxy Fit 2 sports a 1.1-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 3D glass protection. The screen can show over 70 types of clock faces and notifications from the connected smartphone. The South Korean firm has also implemented a feature that periodically reminds you to wash your hands. It can last up to 15 days on a single charge.
