Initial impressions are great, with the handsome form factor and gorgeous display putting up a good front. When you get down to really using the Galaxy Fit, though, its inaccurate heart monitor and lack of GPS tracking take the shine off proceedings. Considering the fact that you can pick up the Galaxy Fit-e for around £50/$50 less and only miss out on wireless charging, the larger colour display, and a few other minor features, or buy the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 4 or Honor Band 5 for the same discounted price, it’s hard to recommend the expensive Galaxy Fit.

The Samsung Galaxy Fit is accessible and easy to live with, but poor distance readings and basic tracking see it fall behind the best.

The Galaxy Fit is fine for the step counting basics but falters when asked to track runs. You can get much better for a similar price.

Budget smartphones have a tendency to look quite low rent, but this handset largely manages to avoid this trap. From the front it actually comes across as quite a handsome device. With a dark chrome band running around the outer edge and light chrome highlighting on the home button and earpiece speaker grill, its classier than most budget rivals. The rear doesn’t look quite as good, though, as the ribbed battery cover feels quite plasticky.
