    I purchased this before my trip to Hawaii to calculate my activity and I enjoyed it so much that I purchased a 2nd one for my wife upon return. We have enjoyed both with water sports and no issues. Other than health tracking, my favorite feature is the sleep tracker that automatically syncs the number of hours slept with Samsung Health. This motivates me to get to bed earlier with hopes of getting 8 hours of sleep.

    I've never owned a smartwatch before so I was hesitant about buying one. I was a bit skeptical about this purchase because I never wear watches or bracelets, but I've grown to love my watch. I don't think it's bulky and it's lightweight. I wore it while running and loved how I could skip my workout songs with the watch instead of reaching for my phone. The original band it came with is really nice and comfortable as well. All around, it's a great smartwatch!

    Coming from an older Asus Zenwatch 2, which is Android Wear, I was expecting better. For the most part, the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active is better. Pros - Lightweight - Lasts All Day on battery charge if on always is disabled (does not show time all the time) -Waterproof - Measures heartbeat - Measures various exercises including bicycle - Reasonable price - Works with Android or iPhone Cons - Bixby does not work - Limited to Samsung apps

    Bargain Price, but useless Blood Pressure feature

    Excellent smartwatch for the price. It's lightweight, Good battery life. Sharp screen. Responsive touch. However, the advertised blood pressure monitoring feature is all but non-existent. It requires one of a very few Samsung phones, limited situations to measure, a very specific release form - just pretend it isn't a thing. And that's the only reason I bought it in the first place.

    I had a fitbit for YEARS and loved it..until it fell apart after getting wet (said it was water resistant) I decided to get the Galaxy watch since I have a Samsung Phone. I have to tell you, its amazing. Im so glad that my fitbit broke and I decided to make a change. Its features are better and it has a water lock, and it still works after swimming!!!! If you are thinking about getting this, do it. Worth every penny!
