    Love my Samsung Galaxy Watch Active Smartwatch. Now I know how many steps a day I take, My stress level and pulse rate. Best of all I don't have to retrieve my phone from my purse or another room to find out what time it is and I love the notices on my watch that lets me know if I have a message or call. It gets a 5 out of 5 from me. My 20 something yr old grandson has one identical to mine, he also has same Galaxy phone as mine so I have him to thank

    My wife loves it. Literally loves it. She can't go without it. It like another gadget she has to make sure to have around her like a phone, purse, wallet, and keys. Also you can customize your band with whatever you can find and like. Along with keeping up with her steps and heart rate. What she loves about us the Samsung pay no touch pay. Now she pay for everything because she claim it helps out with the COVID no touch and faster way to pay.

    The watch is a good piece. The pros: light weight, reliable in steps and is user friendly. Cons: in order to not need to charge daily you need to set it to battery saving option which closes off the use of apps. The workout options are limited. I do Zumba and the closest option on the actual watch is running. The bixby app has never worked regardless of how many different types of commands given.

    It's not super accurate in mileage and workout detection but it's pretty good. The screen is durable. I've hit it on so many things and it's still holding up. I've done plenty of hikes with it and really really love having a watch to track things. The battery life is pretty good. This is the first gen watch. I bought it on sale so it was good value for what I paid. I like the water feature that you can turn it on and swim with it as well, or hike in the rain.

    So I've had this watch for almost a month now and I've been using it everyday. It has a great battery live as it will last me about 2-3 days before charging it. The only thing I cant think of about it not being great is that it does not track my movements correctly. It thinks im walking while I'm just moving my arms while driving. But other than that the watch is great you can check messages, emails and lets you know who is calling you. Overall the watch is great for the price.
