And with more details leaking out, we’re getting a clearer picture of the upcoming device than ever — but plenty of unanswered questions remain. </p><p>New <a href="https://fccid.io/ZCASMR391" target="_blank">FCC regulatory documents</a> (spotted by <a href="https://gadgetsandwearables.com/2026/08/04/samsung-galaxy-fit-4-fcc-filing/" target="_blank">Gadgets & Wearables</a>) have spilled the beans on the much-rumored <a href="https://www.techradar.com/health-fitness/fitness-trackers/fitness-trackers-are-back-hot-on-the-heels-of-the-google-fitbit-air-samsung-is-reportedly-launching-a-new-galaxy-fit">Samsung Galaxy Fit 4</a>. There, you’ll find various nuggets of info on what we can expect from the product, as well as a few things that it likely won’t do. </p><p>For one thing, it looks as if the Fit 4 will not be a screenless device, as the FCC documents include diagrams showing a product with a very similar design to the <a href="https://www.techradar.com/health-fitness/fitness-trackers/samsung-galaxy-fit-3-review">Samsung Galaxy Fit 3</a> — which did include a display. That could be a key difference with the Fitbit Air, which notably forgoes the display entirely. </p><p>The regulatory filings also confirmed that the Fit 4 will come with Bluetooth 5.4, which is a slight upgrade over the Fit 3’s support for Bluetooth 5.3. And there’s a button on the side and optical sensors on the back, much like the Fit 3.</p><h2 id="shrouded-in-mystery">Shrouded in mystery</h2><figure class="van-image-figure inline-layout" data-bordeaux-image-check ><div class='image-full-width-wrapper'><div class='image-widthsetter' style="max-width:3200px;"><p class="vanilla-image-block" style="padding-top:56.25%;"><img id="cn9C94nwETwAyPLYi852zG" name="Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 watch" alt="The Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 watch in grey worn on a female wrist" src="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/cn9C94nwETwAyPLYi852zG.jpg" mos="" align="middle" fullscreen="" width="3200" height="1800" attribution="" endorsement="" class="inline"></p></div></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description" class=" inline-layout"><span class="credit" itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Lauren Scott)</span></figcaption></figure><p>The Samsung Galaxy Fit 3 is one of the <a href="https://www.techradar.com/best/best-cheap-fitness-trackers">best cheap fitness trackers</a> money can buy, making it ideal for budget-conscious users. But if Samsung apparently isn’t planning to reduce costs by going down the screenless route, how else will it keep the price down? </p><p>That’s one of the big unanswered questions from the FCC report. Given the Fit 4 diagrams’ similarity to what we know about the Fit 3, there’s a decent chance we’ll see things like GPS omitted, meaning it might not end up being one of the <a href="https://www.techradar.com/best/running-watches">best wearables for runners</a>. But we don’t know for sure right now. </p><p>Plenty of other areas remain an enigma. The documents mention battery testing but do not specify the battery’s capacity, for instance. The Fit 3 packed in a 208mAh battery that lasted around 10 days on a single charge in our testing, but it’s unclear whether that will change with the Fit 4. </p><p>If anything, these FCC files raise more questions than they answer. They note that documents like product photos and a quick-start guide will remain confidential until January 31, 2027, but that doesn’t necessarily point to a release date. We’d expect Samsung to launch the Fit 4 sooner, but until that happens, much of this secret device will continue to be shrouded in mystery.</p> </article> ]]>
