Samsung plans to unveil a new fitness smartband, the Gear Fit2 Pro, at the company’s Unpacked event on August 23rd, according to VentureBeat. The latest fitness tracker has added water resistance up to 165 feet, and it can sync to the Speedo On app, which lets you swim with it and track lap times. Samsung’s current smartband, the Gear Fit2, isn’t submersible underwater, so that’s a definite winning point. There’s also a music playback option that allows Spotify tracks to be played offline, as well as GPS functionality.

Details about the new Gear Fit2 Pro were posted by well-known leaker Evan Blass, who got his hands on training slides that feature the upcoming smartband. The Gear Fit2 Pro will be compatible with iOS and Android phones, and comes with a premium subscription to Under Armour’s digital fitness platform. The clasp has also been updated to a more functional watch style from the Gear Fit2’s snap closure.
