    I love the band on this smartwatch! It is very comfortable and the end of it tucks inside so it doesn't snag on anything. I also love that it doesn't have a high profile like my previous brand smartwatch had which was very uncomfortable and didn't look good.

    This watch I bought for my mom and she really likes it. The display is good and battery life goes more than a day that is very good. Overall this is good quality watch from Samsung in this price point.

    I had a 2nd gen Moto 360 for years and the battery started giving way so I switched to the Active the day it came out. I think the Moto was more accurate with tracking steps. I also question how accurate heart rate and stress monitor is. I like it overall though

    I bought this as a gift for my wife. She has the gearfit 2 and wanted something different. This watch does everything she needs it to do. Some of the smart watches are huge. This one is not....it looks good on her wrist and she was very pleased with the upgrade.

    Love this product. Actually purchased for hubby and he loved it. Lost it for 3 months just to find in the freezer dead and frozen. Charged that bad boy up and it was still working. I recommend to everyone. Great buy.

    I bought this watch with the intention of using it as a timepiece and a pedometer (track steps). It does both of these things very well. After buying it, I found the sleep tracking feature very useful too.

    I got this to replace the Galaxy Sport, as this was a smaller watch, better designed for a smaller wrist. I love this watch! I have had the Galaxy watches since they first started coming out and now feel that I'm missing a piece of me if I don't have it on.

    This is my first smartwatch and I chose the active because I run everyday. I'm really happy with this watch as of now. I enjoy that I can see texts, calls, and work emails while I'm working out. It pairs perfectly with Samsung Galaxy phones.

    Love this watch. Easy to navigate settings and works better thsn than my first Samsung gear fit smart watch. Smart eatch and tracker all on one and this time it's water resistant. Can't wait to try in the pool

    The new active is a nice tracker/watch. The only think I would say negative about it is the response when lifting it to see the time is not sensitive enough. A slight motion doesn't work all the time. A faster movement is necessary. Other than that I'm loving it

    Bought this as a gift for my husband he loves it. So far it’s been 3 months and we have had no issues, would recommend this product. The band is a little small for his wrist but it just fits, next time I would get a bigger band.

    I've used an apple watch (my wife has one) and I upgraded to this from the Fitbit versa. This has a battery life that is well more than double the apple watch but not quite as good as the Fitbit. I would estimate with heavy use the battery life is about 40 hour.

    I'm a Samsung cell phone person all the way. This watch works great with the Samsung phones. I love the heath tracker;sleep, exercise, active minutes. Very motivating. Love getting texts anywhere on my watch. Easy to use.

    I got this for my wife to replace her old 1st gen Galaxy Watch. She loves it and uses it everyday. The features are plenty for a smart watch and probably one of the best smart watches in the market for Android users. Greatly recommend it!

    I am really enjoying my first truly SMART Watch. I choose the active after researching multiple options. I have had 4 Fitbits and they do not last over 2 years. Love my Samsung phone so this pairing is perfect. I also like that this watch is made of aluminum,

    I actually like this watch. I bought two of them for my wife. One rose gold and this one. She just wanted the rose gold one so I returned the black one. She loves it. She also has a fit bit versa. Samsung lacks the good apps however.

    My husband got me this watch for Christmas and wow . Absolutely great. Tracks my sleep and it’s able to let me know when I’m stressed out . Reminds me to move around when I’ve been to still. Over all it helps me stay active and want to be active .

    I was looking to replace a fitbit and found this on sale. It is fantastic. Love the ability to personalize it. Samsung Health is a great program and so easy with this watch. HIGHLY recommend it if you are a Samsung or android user.
