  "account": "A new listing for the Samsung Galaxy Fit 4 app on the Galaxy Store has caught the attention of tech enthusiasts, revealing a dedicated Wallet option that hints at the wearable's potential for contactless payment support. However, the tracker's FCC certification, which was released earlier, does not mention any NFC connectivity, leaving the possibility of payment support open to speculation.\n\nThe Galaxy Fit 4 listing also showcases new watch faces and an estimated battery life of just over four days. However, it is likely that this battery life estimate is a placeholder, as it is not uncommon for manufacturers to use such figures during the development phase.\n\nSamsung's fitness wearable ambitions do not seem to be slowing down anytime soon. Last month, the company shared video clips of the upcoming Galaxy Fit 4 from 360-degree angles, giving a glimpse of the device's design. Although the outside appearance of the wearable appears almost identical to its predecessor, new leaks suggest that it may have significant improvements on the inside.\n\nBeyond the new watch faces and stress-tracking support, the Galaxy Fit 4 could finally bring contactless payments to the Galaxy Fit line. This development would bring Samsung's offering more in line with competitors like Google's Fitbit Charge line and Xiaomi's smart bands, both of which currently boast NFC for contactless payments.",
