Samsung releases first fix for the Gear Fit, allows for vertical display orientation

The Samsung Gear Fit may not even be out in the UK yet, but Samsung has already released a major update for the device – one which addresses one of its most glaring flaws.

The Gear Fit’s display can now display on screen items vertically, rather than strictly horizontally. Of course on a device as oblong as the Gear Fit, this might not sound terribly practical, but when you consider how its worn on the wrist it actually makes a lot more sense. Whilst there might not be as much presented information in vertical orientation, it should be a lot easier to quickly ingest it.

The device will hopefully be priced somewhere in the region of £120 and will be released in the UK on April 11th alongside the Samsung Galaxy S5, which we’ll be reviewing in next month’s issue of What Mobile Magazine.
