    I have a Flexbit2 but it doesn't have nothing on my Galaxy!! I love the different display choices. It monitors more than my Flexbit2. I see my text messages and my reminders. If I do not move in a hour, it will buzz and tell me to move. I am still learning this watch. It has exceeded my expectations.

    Excellent quality watch. Has all features I was looking for, including Samsung Pay capability, which is nice since I'm trying to go as touchless as possible during COVID19. Also controls my music and gives me all my alerts during the day since I can't have my phone on me at work.

    the watch synced well with my Samsung Phone, but haven't figured out how to talk thru the watch, like reply to text messages, or answer calls, it says it should be able to. So gar so good, would buy this watch again & highly recommend it!!!

    This smart watch is great. Easy to pair, navigate and the battery lasts a long time. Texts, social media apps, downladable apps, photos, and health management are easy to view and monitor. The daily briefing feature also is a nice bonus.

    I love that there are so many different faces to choose from depending on my mood! So much better that my Apple watch. It's very similar but a lot cheaper, but in a good way!

    I had well still have the Samsung Galaxy watch and the difference between the two that I have noticed is you can't answer phone calls on the active but you can use NFC. on the Samsung Galaxy you can answer calls but no NFC....

    It comes with additional bands for larger wrists. I did have to return it because the charger was faulty but no issues since. Does exactly what you would expect and very customizable with the app.

    Bought as replacement when Samsung gear screen crashed. Love it! Does everything I want it to! Like the silicone band that tucks under. Lightweight and holds a charge. Flat charger is great too!

    This is my 1st smart watch and I'm ubber happy, BUT I wish that I could hear music on it and answer phone calls, after all it is called "active" The graphics are really good and the touch sensitivity is precise
