Disappointing - poor job tracking steps
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I prefer the Samsung/Google platform to Apple, so I was excited to hear about the Galaxy Watch Active when I decided it was time to upgrade my trusty Fitbit Alta, which I had worn for 3 years. I preordered and picked mine up the day that BestBuy shipped them to the stores, so I've been using it daily for about 3 months, and I'm disappointed. First the good - it's small, light, round, and comfortable. I rarely notice that it's there. I also like that there are many watch faces available for a reasonable price. Unfortunately however, it does a poor job of tracking steps, which is the primary reason I bought it. The Galaxy Watch Active only records steps taken with swinging arms. This means that steps taken while pushing a grocery cart or carrying something in my arms are not recorded. After 3 years of wearing a Fitbit, I know my habits, and how many steps I take in an average day, and the Galaxy Watch Active records approximately ⅓ fewer steps daily. Disappointing. And, forget about tracking flights of stairs. I'm lucky if my watch records 1 flight daily, and I regularly do at least 10. Also, I expected the Galaxy Watch Active to be capable of engaging in phone calls, like my husband's Apple Watch. Not so. While I like that I can reject calls from my wrist, when I answer there, I am directed to my phone. There is no audio on my wrist, so what's the point of being able to answer there? Pointless feature. In addition, I was deceived about the blood pressure monitoring capabilities of the Galaxy Active in the pre-sale marketing hype. I'm still waiting on that in a stable and reliable format. And also, I do really wish that the Galaxy Watch Active had the EKG function, like the Apple Watch. My health insurance is no longer covering that in routine physical exams, so it's pretty nice to be able to run it in the doctor's office on the Apple Watch. I also wish that I received high stress warnings, like on the Apple Watch, encouraging me to breathe mindfully. Incredibly annoying is the bright green light that constantly flashes against my wrist while wearing the watch comfortably loose. It shines in my and my husband's eyes at night, in movie theaters, at shows… it's quite distracting. The Apple Watch doesn't do this. Not as important, but noteworthy, are the dreadful (Bixby) voice to text and texting capabilities of the Galaxy Watch Active. While acceptable on my Galaxy phone, they're barely tolerable here. I expected a similar experience device to device. And I should mention that while it was quick and easy to replace the watch band of my Fitbit Alta, this is quite cumbersome. The band cannot be replaced quickly or easily. Even with my small fingers, working with tiny pins is tedious. I have to use needle nose pliers and tweezers. Poor design. Finally - battery life. I have never been able to get 48 hours from a single charge. I must charge every day. But on the bright side, it usually only takes about an hour to bring it back to 100% from 50-60%, so that's not too bad. I really wanted to love this device, but a step tracker that doesn't accurately track steps is pretty disappointing.
