    Hey samsung!! Step up!! Unhappy customer here!!

    I went for a walk with S2 on one hand and a fitbit surge on the other. I compared at the end and the S2 showed 4289 steps and fitbit showed 4480. Then I used Google maps to calculate the distance that I walked and it was exactly two miles. I used an online calculator to convert 4289 to miles...
