Tech fans are likely familiar with Samsung's Galaxy Watch range, but the company also offers a fitness-focused wearable that provides all the essential fitness features at a much better
value. The Galaxy Fit 3, announced in early 2024, boasts fitness tracking, heart rate monitoring and sleep tracking capabilities, all from a slim device with an impressive 13-day battery
life. Even better, Amazon has now reduced the price of the Galaxy Fit 3 to just £41, making it even more affordable than Samsung's own sales. Originally priced at £59, the Galaxy Fit 3
is designed to compete with devices like the Fitbit Inspire in terms of features. The Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 features a 1.6-inch AMOLED display on the front, making it easy to check your stats
throughout the day. It allows for tapping and swiping navigation, with an additional side button for control. READ MORE: 77-YEAR-OLD SAYS 'MY OLD TEETH LOOK AMAZING' THANKS TO

monitors your vitals, giving you a clear understanding of your body's activity. Coupled with the onboard sensors, you can keep track of your steps and activity, helping users understand
how many calories burned throughout the day. With support for over 100 different activities, it's ready to record whatever sport you're participating in, whether that's
running or swimming, or something more adventurous like rock climbing or skiing, reports the Express. The Galaxy Fit 3, Samsung's latest fitness tracker, has hit the market without a
built-in GPS chip, meaning users will need to connect it to their phones for precise location tracking. The main downside is that you can't leave home without your phone. This
isn't unusual for devices in its price range – even pricier models like the Garmin Vivosmart, currently on offer at Very for £109, share this trait. For those keen on having GPS
functionality, the Fitbit Charge 6 includes it and is available on Amazon for £139. Focusing back on the Galaxy Fit 3, one of its perks is the seamless integration with Samsung's
ecosystem, ensuring it works perfectly with Samsung smartphones. Although compatible with other Android handsets, iPhone users won't be able to pair it with their devices. The Galaxy
Fit 3 extends its utility by providing notifications and music controls to support your smartphone. All activity data syncs effortlessly to the Samsung Health app. Priced at £41, the Galaxy
Fit 3 is lauded as an excellent value-for-money fitness tracker, particularly for its step-tracking capabilities. "In my opinion, it is far better than Fitbit", one satisfied
customer remarked. Another added: "Great product, battery life compared to Apple Watch is exceptional and at a fraction of the cost."
