Exclusive: This is Samsung's Galaxy Fit 4 in three colors

It looks like Samsung is getting ready to refresh its affordable fitness tracker lineup very soon. Android Authority has obtained exclusive video clips showing the upcoming Galaxy Fit 4 from 360-degree angles, and the wearable looks almost indistinguishable from its predecessor.

The footage, shared with us by Telegram user @J09Notts after some sleuthing uncovered the device, shows the Galaxy Fit 4 in three colors. There’s a black version, a white variant, and a third option that appears to have a very light blue finish. The videos give us our best look yet at the Galaxy Fit 4 from all sides, including its display, frame, strap, and rear panel.

Samsung’s next fitness tracker looks awfully familiar

From the front, the Galaxy Fit 4 features an elongated rectangular display with rounded corners, housed in a casing with curved edges. A physical button sits on the right side, while the silicone strap features multiple adjustment holes and a conventional buckle.

Flip the device around, and the rear panel features the familiar sensor arrangement you’d expect from a fitness tracker. The overall design, from the display proportions to the band attachment and casing, looks remarkably similar to the Galaxy Fit 3.

In fact, based on the footage we’ve obtained, it’s difficult to spot any obvious exterior changes between the two generations. Samsung could still introduce meaningful hardware or software upgrades, but the design itself doesn’t appear to be getting a major makeover.

That’s consistent with our earlier reporting. In August, we spotted documentation identifying a Samsung wearable with model number SM-R391, explicitly designated as “FIT4” in some documents. We also uncovered a rear render that looked nearly identical to the Galaxy Fit 3, and the clips we now have confirm we were on the right track.

Meanwhile, the documentation indicated Bluetooth Low Energy support, while the device was believed to use Goodix’s GH3036 optical sensor module, designed for low-power heart rate and other health monitoring. However, Samsung hasn’t confirmed the Galaxy Fit 4’s specs, and the footage alone doesn’t tell us whether the company has upgraded its sensors or added new features.

Unfortunately, we don’t know much else about the wearable just yet. It’s worth noting, though, that the Galaxy Fit 4 is arriving at an interesting time for affordable wearables. Google’s Fitbit Air introduced a screenless approach to fitness tracking earlier this year, while the newly announced Fitbit Edge offers a more traditional experience with an OLED display and a broader set of health and fitness features.

However, these devices occupy different price brackets. The Fitbit Edge costs $179.99, while the Fitbit Air is $99. In comparison, the Galaxy Fit 3 launched at around $60, and we expect the Fit 4 to have a similar price tag. So while the Edge and Air have certainly renewed interest in fitness trackers, the Fit 4 isn’t going to be a direct price-for-price or feature-for-feature competitor to Google’s bands.
