The Fit has one physical home button, which you can also double-press as a shortcut to certain apps (that part's customizable - just choose the feature you use most often). Still, it's a sporty-looking device, if you know what I mean, which means anyone looking for something elegant should probably look elsewhere. It's comfortable enough that it's not a burden to wear for long periods of time, which is something I can't say about many rival watches. It's easy enough to swap colors, though you won't have many options at the beginning - just six for now. Moving beyond the screen, the Fit is a narrow plastic module that comes with an interchangeable wristband. And since there's no ambient light sensor, there's no auto-brightness setting to make it easier for your display to adjust when you go outdoors. It's barely readable in sunlight, though you'll need to bump it up to "outdoor brightness" mode, and even then it only stays in that mode for five minutes before reverting back down to your previous setting. The screen itself has vibrant colors, making it fun to stare at even when you're not using it. It helps this smartwatch/fitness band hybrid look and feel more natural, and it's much more aesthetically pleasing than most of its rivals, too. Mostly it was the screen that got me, a 1.84-inch curved Super AMOLED display that wraps around your wrist. That's the thought that ran through my mind when I handled the Samsung Gear Fit for the very first time back in February.
