The smartwatch will be available in grey, pink gold, and silver colour options.
Coming to features, the Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 sports a 1.6-inch display and the company highlights that it is 45 percent wider than Galaxy Fit 2, which came with a 1.1-inch screen. While the type of display was not disclosed, reports suggest that it could be an OLED panel.

The smartwatch also gets more than 100 watch faces, and users can also add their photos as background.
The Galaxy Fit 3 features heart rate and stress level monitoring, blood oxygen (SpO2) level monitoring, sensors for tracking sleep patterns and snoring, and more. There is a Sleep Coach feature available that provides users with personalised insights to improve their sleep quality. For fitness enthusiasts, the fitness tracker comes with more than 100 workout modes. It has an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance (up to 5ATM).
Apart from this, the smartwatch also has new functionalities such as Fall Detection and Emergency SOS. Describing the feature, Samsung said, “When an abnormal fall is detected, the Galaxy Fit3 gives users the option to call emergency services right away to get medical support in a timely manner. When users are in an emergency, they can send an SOS immediately by pressing the side button five times.” The tracker can also be used as a remote control for their Galaxy smartphones to take pictures, set timers, and control media player settings.
