That is why you dispense with high powered screens and dual core processors. If health/fitness/activity is the use case that Samsung are talking about, then it's useless to their device sitting on a bedside locker not tracking anything for a significant portion of the time. The problem here is that Samsung have a hammer (ie. lots of technology), so all they see are nails (how much stuff can we pack onto a device). The end result is a confusing device that doesn't know what it wants to do.
