As well as their line of premium smartwatches and fitness trackers, Samsung have also quietly produced a simple fitness solution that could be a perfect fit for newcomers to the quantified self / fitness tracking movement. It’s called simply the Activity Tracker, and it’s coming soon to Mobile Fun.
The Activity Tracker covers the basics well, tracking the steps you take, the exercise you perform and the calories that you burn as a result. Because there’s no built-in display, battery life is very good, with the device lasting up to five days between charges.
The Tracker also contains some other useful features, like an alert which lets you know if your phone gets more than ten metres away from you. You’ll also be alerted to incoming calls and texts on your phone by a LED lighting up. The Activity Tracker can be worn on a clip or on a wrist band, according to your preference.
The Activity Tracker works using Bluetooth 4.0, and is compatible with Samsung smartphones and tablets running Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and later. You can use the bespoke Activity Tracker App or S Health 3.0; both programs will show your activity and give you a nice overview of your recent fitness and calories.
The Activity Tracker is coming soon to Mobile Fun. For more information or to place your pre-order, please visit the product page below!
