It seems that Samsung is nearing the launch of its anticipated Galaxy Fit 3 wearable device. This new device will succeed the Galaxy Fit 2, which is almost three years old.

The Galaxy Fit 3 was accidentally revealed on a Samsung website just days ago, and now some retail boxes have been spotted in the wild, according to Gizmochina. Although the retail boxes don’t reveal any new information that we didn’t already know, they do suggest that Samsung is getting ready to launch the Galaxy Fit 3 very soon.

As you can see in the image above, the Galaxy Fit 3 looks to arrive in at least two colors: white and black. However, there’s no way of knowing what material will be used for the watch body. As previously noted, the Samsung UAE website was the first to leak information about the Galaxy Fit 3. Although the content was removed quickly, it was still available in the website’s cache. According to the leak, the upcoming Galaxy Fit 3 will significantly upgrade the previous model.

The Galaxy Fit 3 is expected to feature a 1.6-inch AMOLED display, measuring 40mm diagonally. The watch will have up to 13 days of battery life between charges. The wearable will also have advanced health tracking features, safety features like fall detection, and over 100 customizable watch faces.

The upcoming wearable device could also have a sleep coach function that offers personalized recommendations to users on improving their sleep habits based on their sleep patterns and routines. This feature was also present on the Galaxy Watch 6 released last year.

The leaked information about the Galaxy Fit 3 suggests that it will have a similar shape to the Apple Watch. However, it is not expected to be a direct competitor to the Apple Watch. The starting price of the Apple Watch SE 2 is $249, while the Galaxy Fit 3 may be priced as low as $99. This puts it in the same price range as the Fitbit Charge 6 and Fitbit Inspire 3.

If the leaks are accurate, Samsung will likely reveal the Galaxy Fit 3 soon. However, it is unclear why the company didn’t announce it earlier this year when it launched the Galaxy S24 series.

This news follows Samsung’s tease that it’s working on the Galaxy Ring. If both devices are released this year, 2024 could be a significant year for Samsung’s health initiatives.

Google and Samsung phones will be receiving Qi2 wireless charging, the answer to Apple's MagSafe wireless charging, this year.

The Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) said in a press release ahead of CES 2025 on Monday that the "acceleration" of native Qi2 wireless charging support will be rolling out to more Android phones throughout the year, including the Samsung Galaxy and Google's Pixel line of phones. Both flagship companies confirmed their intentions to program Qi2 into their respective devices.

The 2025 Android phone I’m most looking forward to isn’t from Samsung or Google

2025 is rapidly approaching, and that can only mean one thing for a tech nerd like me: It's time to start looking forward to another year of smartphones. All signs are pointing to an interesting year for Apple with the iPhone 17, and I'm eager to see what comes of it.

But what about what's happening in the Android smartphone space? The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is just on the horizon, but I've yet to see anything that's made me really ecstatic about it. The Google Pixel 10 series should be a good one, but we've not heard enough about it yet.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 is just around the corner. We expect it to be announced on January 22 at the Galaxy Unpacked event that's expected to be happening that day, and a new leak further corroborates that information while adding in a few more tidbits we didn't know before.

Tipster Jukanlosreve shared the news on X, citing a "very reliable" source that confirmed the Galaxy S25 will officially be on sale in Korea (and presumably the U.S.) on February 7. In addition, the leaker says the Slim model will also be shown at the Unpacked event.
