    I bought this watch for my wife and she loves it! The look and feel of the watch, along with the functionality is really good. It's her companion at the gym and for going out.

    I bought the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active when I had my Note 8. Performance is still very snappy to this day. I like how a bigger watch band is included for larger wrists. It is lightweight and looks great with any of my outfits. I lost the ability to remotely accept phone calls and send texts through the watch after connecting it to my OnePlus 7 Pro, but I barely used those features anyway. The only thing I honestly didn't like about the watch is there is no cellular option to talk through the watch. I guess that is what the regular Galaxy Watch is for. On the positive side, I can still use Samsung Pay on the watch without a Samsung phone.

    I love this watch. I have waited for a Samsung version of a smartwatch that was a little smaller for my wrist. I really love how this looks and it is very useful. Love it!

    this watch replaced my fit bit. I am very happy besides on a new platform from fitbit. Anyways, texting from watch with phone connected of course. Enjoy the size, feel and ease from this. I use the s20 so this watch makes a perfect companion. I set my phone down and walk away so I will miss messages and calls. Now I set my phone and use my watch. Stress tests and health with this is good. Plenty of apps and watch faces of course. I am very happy except just like phones these devices are expensive but still force you to buy a screen protector which i recommend to this watch

    My wife says she loves the aesthetic"it's pretty!" Coming from her previous Samsung watch she thought she would miss having the bezel for navigation, but "not at all", she confirmed.

    Awesome watch. Great for what I need. It does not have a speaker so I cannot use it without my phone or earbuds for phone calls but it's still an awesome watch.
