Samsung's next fitness band, the Galaxy Fit 4, may be close to launch, but early word says it may not differ much from the Fit 3.
Samsung may be getting ready to launch the Galaxy Fit 4, its next fitness band. Android Authority reports that the biggest features have leaked. The same report says the new band may not differ much from the Galaxy Fit 3, so it could be a small step rather than a big leap.
A fit band is a slim tracker with a small screen that you wear on your wrist. It is simpler and cheaper than a full smartwatch. The Galaxy Fit 4 is the likely follow-up to Samsung's Galaxy Fit 3.
A band like this suits people who want basic tracking without paying for a full smartwatch. If you already own a Fit 3, the early signs point to little reason to rush. A model that looks much like the old one rarely justifies a swap.
The material available does not give a price or a release date. It also does not list the leaked features in detail, so it is too early to say what, if anything, is truly new. Samsung has not been quoted in the information provided.
If you own a Galaxy Fit 3, there is probably no hurry to upgrade. Wait for confirmed details and a price.
