Samsung has introduced two new wearables today, the first being second-generation Gear Fit called Gear Fit 2, and second being truly wireless earbuds called Gear IconX.
The Samsung Gear Fit fitness tracker and smartwatch is probably the least bulky smartwatch around, but it's also more of a fitness tracker than the kind of smartwatch that we're all so excited about getting. That doesn't mean that it's not awesome though, and if you've been on the fence about picking one up and happen to live in the United States, then now might be a great time to take the plunge.
As well as taking the wraps off the flagship Galaxy S5 at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona last month, Samsung also introduced a slew of new wearables. The Gear 2 and Gear 2 Neo, as well as the Gear Fit, were all showcased by the South Korean outfit at the event, but while we have a decent insight into their tech. specs and features, the pricing has hitherto eluded us. Thanks to the launch of the Gear 2 and Gear Fit in Taiwan, we now know roughly how much the two smartwatches will retail for, although the cost of the Gear 2 Neo still remains a mystery.
At Mobile World Congress towards the end of February, Samsung showcased its latest and greatest Galaxy S5 smartphone to the world. Like the launch of the Galaxy Note 3 back in September, the Korean outfit also added a smartwatch to proceedings, and after a generally negative response to the initial Galaxy Gear, the company will be hoping that the Gear 2 fares a great deal better. To whet the appetites of fans excited about the forthcoming releases, Samsung has delivered a hands-on video offering a walk-through of the Galaxy S5, as well as a further clip demonstrating the numerous bells and whistles of the Gear 2 and Gear Fit. Check them out after the break!
