Samsung Gear Sport review: A versatile fitness-first smartwatch

As the holiday season approaches and New Year’s and its inevitable fitness-related resolutions draw near, wearables makers are scrambling.

Samsung decided that “good activity tracker” wasn’t enough, though, and built a device around exercise that also packs a slew of smartwatch features. The Gear Sport does so much that it’s one of the most versatile health-centric smartwatches in this price range.
