The screen size has increased to 1.1 inches compared to the previous model (0.95 inches), and it measures sleep stages to inform how efficiently you slept. It also measures stress levels. It guides proper handwashing by measuring the duration and provides functions to measure calorie consumption, heart rate, distance traveled, exercise records, and sleep patterns. As a smart band specialized for exercise, it can record 90 types of workouts including walking, running, swimming, and Pilates. It also allows checking and replying to messages. The price is 49,500 KRW.

Samsung Electronics expects demand to increase as smart bands offer health and exercise measurement functions at one-tenth the price of smartwatches. The wearable device market is also benefiting from growth due to increased interest in exercise and health amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

According to Strategy Analytics, the global wearable device market share in the second quarter of this year was led by Huawei (21%), followed by Xiaomi (17%), Apple (17%), and Samsung (3.8%). Market research firm IDC analyzed that the smart band market size will grow from 67.7 million units to 74.4 million units by 2024.
