Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a huge game changer for me. So convenient, so helpful. Still figuring it out, but loving it so far. Took me awhile to figure out how to shut off most of the stuff I don't use. Battery was draining fast (less than 9hrs) with all the stuff running all the time etc. I'm very impressed with it's durability. I'm brutal with watches! So far this is still mint condition. I'm not a health nut, I got it for communication purposes and it's impressive. I finally learned how to speak my replies to messages and to make and answer phone calls. Has better reception than my cell phone. Still trying to figure out how to conserve battery life and shut off some things that keep popping up, but I'm getting there.

My wife really loves her watch. It's easy to use and automatically synced with her phone. The microphone feature is awesome and allows for hands free use effortlessly. Her only complaint is the battery only last about 2 days.

Great upgrade from the Galaxy Fit 2. The bigger screen and the haptics are great. Awesome for tracking workouts and all-around smart watch functions (with a much sleeker form factor)

I was using a fit bit before this and hated it! This watch is amazing! I love it so much that I can change the faces, use it for exercising, and great for notifications.

I bought one earlier in the year, but was hesitant about keeping it since I really didn't need it but I wanted it. I ended up returning it but the watch was so good I bought it again and I've really enjoyed it. I am able to keep track of my sleep, reminders, steps, and best yet I can make phone calls right from my watch and answer text messages without having to purchase another line like alot of other watches. Honestly for the price, its so worth it and If you are hesitant dont be, it really is a good watch. The charging is super fast. The battery can be better but no big deal for me. I usually charge it every night because I'm a heavy user. It can maybe go for 2 days max without heavy use.

Gifted this item to my mother. She loved it. I have a Apple Watch but she have a galaxy so I got her this. We are always comparing our steps and workout together. And she answers my phone calls faster lol.

I started out with the Galaxy Fit and recently it stopped working. I went in to exchange it for a new one, with my Geek Squad. I decided it was time for an upgrade and I am very glad I did! The Galaxy Active 2, allows one to make and receive phone calls and text messages from the watch itself! It uses Bluetooth and/or wifi. There is even an option for you to have the texts read aloud. There is space for you to add songs on the watch as well as personal photos! The fitness part actually tells one when it is time to move and celebrates because one did. While walking, it will announce when one has reached a mile or more!! There are so many different positives about this watch.

This watch helps track my fitness. I also like that it can track my sleep. The only thing I wish was that the battery life would last longer. Depending on how you use it you could maximize it for 2 days.

Bought this watch for my wife as a Christmas present. She loves it! So many features at an extremely reasonable price point. Well made and lightweight. Highly recommended!

I love that I don't have to pull my phone out to see my notification. I love it tells my steps & my heart beats per min... It even tells me to get up if I sit to long. I am 57 with bad knee.I need some motivation. I love the colors. The battery lasted 3 days but I was NOT constantly touching it..I just wish it had a blood pressure monitor..maybe that will come later. I love the size perfect for me. I just wish Samsung would put screen protectors in the box with it. & amybe 1 extra strap. but it works great & does a lot more. I have had it a few days now

I've had other smart watches before but this one does everything i need and more. Its the best watch for the price especially with all the functionality it has.

I really like the design and features. Disappointed with battery life as compared to past watch, but with more functions comes more battery usage so fairly understandable. For personal health reasons, the stress and breathing function is a definite benefit.

I bought this item for my partner and she loves it. She says it’s easy to use, was easy to learn and get acquainted with. It does everything she needs it to do for her.

Excellent product with reasonable price. This watch works well with my Galaxy S9 except the camera control! :( I found out that only S10 and Note10 will have this feature.... I can wait few more months for the S11 (or S20, new name) for this feature to be added on. The good thing I like about this watch is to remind me exercise/activity every hour during day time. Since I'm working with computer all day, this reminder is great to help me active! In addition, the watch displays message alerts from the phone as well as phone call, which I can answer through the watch!:) I high recommend this watch for active person, especially if you already have Samsung smartphone! :)

Purchased for a 72 year old, technology fearful spouse. She's decent with her smartphone, but every system update brings on a new round of acclimating to system changes. We were apprehensive she'd embrace a smart watch long enough to learn the many features and benefits. Surprise! She loves it. 2 specific features, the ability to use smartwatch to locate her misplaced phone, plus the "fall-detection" sensing and alert capability, provide comfort/confidence to be alone. I withheld one star in the rating for battery life. Requires recharging every other day, but she's modifying settings to minimize some duplicate functions of both watch and smartphone. An example is minimizing FB notifications on watch to reduce usage and extend a charge. Sometimes you can teach and old dog new tricks.

The galaxy Active2 watch is full of features and great displays. Apps are accessible and easy to get into. The watch faces are great for whatever yours needs. Notifications work well when set up properly and this is the first watch I've been able to text from. The only down side is battery life. I had a fit bit 3 prior to this and although it didn't have as many features, the battery lasted three times as long. Using the watch in normal mode as I intended when I purchased it, it will not last 2 full days and dies often while I'm sleeping. A little sad because I wanted to track my sleep better. Everything else about it has been great so far, but I had to buy an extra charger for work just to make sure I wouldn't get caught with a dead watch every other day.

I owned the original GWA, but returned it due to the poor tracking. With double the number of sensors on the GWA 2, I had some hope the tracking would be better. It isn't. Like the first, I bought this watch in hopes of replacing my Fitbit Versa. I have a Samsung phone, so it would be nice to have a more integrated/capable smartwatch. This one can easily find my phone, I can charge it off the back of my phone, easier to review emails/texts. The notifications are nicer and easier to read, using the icon from the actual app. It now also has a mic. You can use it to identify songs, do voice memos, make calls, or do inquiries with Bixby (which is better that the previous assistant, though a little slow to start hearing commands if awakened with the voice command.) I purchased the 40mm version, which is perfect for a 14.5cm/5.75 inch wrist. Any bigger and the lugs would go past my wrist. I also love the digital touch bezel. It gives the phone a lower profile than the bulky dial my S3 had, and looks sleeker. I'm still incredibly disappointed with the tracking and for that reason contemplating returning it. The sleep tracking basically doesn't work. Even after puttingit in good night mode, it recorded 30 minutes of Deep Sleep versus the 90 minutes/1.5 hours measured by the Versa. The extra hour was present in the Light sleep stage. Similarly, it had 30 minutes less REM and 30 minutes more awake time than the Versa. The stats in Samsung Health also count the time you were awake during the period in your sleep stats, rather than the actual sleep time (which it does calculator but doesn't use as the primary measure). Moreover, unlike on the S3, you STILL cannot edit measured sleep data (just like with the GWA). So if there's an error with the start (or wake times more commonly), you can't edit it on Samsung Health. Samsung Health is also a middling application. It has almost no integrations with other apps besides My Fitness Pal, so if you want to sync your data with anything else, you'll have to do it by syncing to MFP and then from MFP to the other app. In all, it's decent smartwatch. It's a terrible fitness tracker though, and Samsung puts a large amount of focus on the health and fitness aspects in its marketing/website. So in that sense, it's a failure. But if you don't care about the fitness aspect, then you'll likely enjoy it.

The watch is very nice, especially the color. This was a Christmas gift for my daughter and she loved it! She loves all the features and how easy it is to use.

I haven't gone a day without this bad boy here! Beautiful design meets awesome functionality. Its also smaller for people like me with small wrists! I LOVE THIS WATCH!

This watch is a great product and can be used with any Samsung device. It's a slight upgrade from the original with an invisible band around the edge.
