Does everything it says it does, fairly well.. I just wish it did a little more.
For what it tries to do, it succeeds pretty well.
I mean, we can only judge a product against it's intended uses and functions, not against our own personal desires, right? The tracker really does work fine. It's not *perfect* at understanding what's going on when I'm on the treadmill (the accelerometer isn't sure I'm moving).. but it definitely tracks some steps. It also tells the time to the nearest 5 minutes.. though sometimes it seems to drop or gain 5-10 minutes... but re-syncing it seems to fix that when it does happen.
Super light, super easy to leave on my wrist.. no problems sleeping with it on.. and it does a fine job of figuring out when I was asleep and when I woke up.
All in all, I'm pleased with it. It does the things it says it does.. the app works with MyFitnessPal, and it's all just quite good.
But it's not the tracker I *WISH* it was. But for that, I think I'd have to shell out more money, on a more modern 'smart watch'... something with extra features like timers and stopwatch functions, media controllers, things like that.
But for what this device is trying to be, it does a fantastic job. And if you happen to find a good price on one, and all you need is a basic fitness tracker that gives you an idea of how active you've been without being obsessively precise, with decent app support and connectivity, and a very basic 'watch' function to boot.. Something that will just run on cheap, replaceable batteries and always 'be on'.. I honestly can say that this little gem will do ya.

Works well, good price.

For a Smart Watch, it's kinda Dumb
3 von 3 finden das hilfreich I bought this refurbished. For the $29 I paid, this was a good product. Compared to other smartwatches these days the Gear Fit (1) isn't worth bothering with.. and if you don't own a Samsung phone I absolutely can NOT recommend it.
I bought it hoping I could use it as a nice looking watch that also served as a fitness tracker. My old Fitbit Ultra had died, and I figured I could take the cheap way out with a refurbished Gear Fit... Samsung's a top-line brand, I figured it wouldn't be junk.
To be fair, it isn't junk. Though the first unit I received (again these were used) had a graphics fault, and showed a large black circle blotting out part of the screen. The second one I received has some button issues (the button's been mashed too hard too often by a previous owner).
Positives:
The screen is lovely, and while the active area of the screen has a comparatively large black border around it of 'non-screen', the screen is bright and vivid.. I've even had to turn down it's brightness.
When you can get it to pair with a phone the features expand a bit. (I used the third party "Gear Fit Pro" app - to connect to my HTC Desire 530, but I did also use a Samsung Galaxy S4 for testing)
I used the clock that shows the weather icon and temperature. It gets this info from the phone, so you'll need to take your phone with you.
There's a really neat timer app that I have set to launch on the 'double-press' action. Double-click the power button and then tap the 'start' button on screen and you have a quick and easy timer (I have a 30 minute timer that I need several times a day, this is super convenient to have on my wrist).
The wallpaper function is really fun, and I've had fun making some of my own.
The 'find my phone' button is cool too, but sadly the app I use plays a very low-volume 'here I am' ringtone. The Samsung app on the samsung phone did not have this issue.
The Negatives:
The whole "Notifications" function is a complete joke. I just turned them all off.
The pedometer is useless. I gained a hundred steps putting on a sweater, then walked across my apartment and hadn't gained a step. As such, much of the 'fitness' part of the application suite is useless. No idea how reliable the "Heart Rate" app is.
There's no "Alarm" integration with the phone. I can set a timer and use a stopwatch on the phone, but there's no function to 'let me know when it's 7pm' on the watch. HUGE oversite. There's a hacky workaround in the app I'm using, but again it doesn't use the phone's standard 'clock' alarms.. I find I'd rather get out my phone to set an alarm and just listen for the phone to beep, leaving the fit out of it.
No way to reorder the app icons using the watch. There's a function for this in the samsung app, but the third party app I use can't do this.
The "Media Controller" app can't control just any media app you're using. This means Xiia and Rocket Player are out. In fact with the phone app I'm using, I can only control Google Play Music, Spotify, or something else I don't use. The workaround is to use Google Play Music... but meh.
You can't 'transfer' it from one phone to another without completely resetting the watch to factory defaults. I thought maybe I could set the Gear Fit up exactly the way I wanted with my failing Samsung S4, then pair it to the HTC Desire... but then I found out that wasn't going to work. So I was forced to choose between customized app icon layout, or the battery life of the HTC.
The Verdict:
All in all, it's not a terrible watch. I mean actually it's pretty, I can customize the background, it'll even tell me the weather, and that quick access function being tied to the timer means I'm just 3 clicks from my timer starting. The watch can go several days between charges and is fully charged overnight.
But as a fitness tracker, it's bad. Really bad.
As a Smart Watch it's pretty bad too. While you can receive notifications on it, and you can control your media player if you use the right one.. there's not a lot of 'smart' to it.
I wish this device had been more platform agnostic, or that Samsung had made their support apps more compatible.
I still wear it, and use it, because it is an attractive watch, and that timer function is super handy for me. But I find myself hoping to replace it with something a little more capable.
