Samsung Introduces ‘Gear Fit2’ and ‘Gear IconX’ Wearables

Samsung has added two new products to its fitness wearable lineup, the Gear IconX and Gear Fit2. Both items have been optimized for their users’ fitness needs, including accurate tracking technology.

The Gear IconX is a pair of cordless earbuds that tracks fitness data such as distance, duration, speed, heart rate, and calories burned. The earbuds can also provide users with information about their performance with instant voice feedback.

The Gear IconX can also serve as a standalone music listening device with 4GB of memory, swipe and tap controls, and Bluetooth connectivity. Samsung’s new earbuds come in three sizes to fit any ear. One downside is the IconX earbuds only have about an hour and a half battery when continuously streaming music, but the compact charging case helps soften that blow.

The Gear Fit2 is a wearable fitness watch that includes a heart rate monitor and an embedded GPS. The tracking and feedback are viewed on a high-resolution, large AMOLED curved display, and the band comes in a multitude of colors. It also works with a companion app to allow its user complete control of their fitness goals and achievements.

The Gear Fit2 goes for $179.99 and is available in retailers like Best Buy. The Gear IconX earbuds will be available in the third quarter of 2016 for $199.
