Samsung Gear Fit 2 specs, release date news: Promotional images show fitness tracker in various colors

Purported promotional images featuring the Samsung Gear Fit 2, the rumored sequel to the fitness tracker that the company debuted in 2014, have been leaked online.

According to Phone Arena, the photos appear to be authentic and are definitely in line with Samsung's marketing approach so fans may actually be looking at the real Samsung Gear Fit 2 in these leaks.

The photos showed the wearable in bands of various colors including pink, blue and black. The screen of the fitness tracker displays the app that allows wearers to track their run—their location, the distance and the speed.

The images also hint that the Samsung Gear Fit 2 will have a more durable rubberized body, which should allow users to use it in other sporting activities like swimming.

If promotional images like this bunch are already set up, it could be an indication that it won't be a matter of time before the Samsung Gear Fit 2 is officially launched.

This is in line with the persistent rumors that the new and improved version of the Samsung Gear Fit will be launched next month in South Korea.

With only days from the purported release, fans of the fitness tracker can prepare for the long-awaited day. After all, it will be two years since the Samsung Gear Fit was launched and a year since expectations surged about the device coming along.

Last month, Samsung itself accidentally published on its website a listing for the device. Before the tech firm could take it down, users were able to feast on the page, which was loaded with information.

The Samsung Gear Fit 2 is expected to sport a sleeker look than its predecessor. It will feature a1.84-inch AMOLED display. It is said to come with 4GB internal memory and the latest version of Samsung's bio-processor.

A notable upgrade from the Samsung Gear Fit from 2014 is that the Gear Fit 2 will have built-in Global Positioning System (GPS).
