    I've had the Gear Sport, Galaxy Watch, and now Galaxy Watch Active2. It's a lot lighter than the Galaxy Watch and has a smaller profile and I like it because I have small wrists and the first two watches looked huge on me. Each time I get a new watch, I hand the previous one down to my husband and we compete who gets the most steps throughout the day. I work at a hospital and he works at Home Depot so we are both on our feet all day. He usually beats me but it's fun competition. I also like how the bezel is digital now. TBH, I don't really use the bezel all that often but it's nice to have that option if I do want to use it. Bixby has come a long way but it could use some work. Third party apps are scarce but slowly the Galaxy Store is coming up with some cool apps. "Some." The watch faces selection seems to be never-ensibg which is nice because you could literally find one to fit any mood...or outfit! It's a good mix of smartwatch slash fitness tracker with more emphasis on health/fitness. I can't wait to see what the ECG feature will look like and how well it works! Obviously it isn't meant to replace your doctor, so don't get this watch for that reason! Otherwise, it's lightweight, tracks my steps, calories, sleep, and a bunch more. Everything I needed all in one small watch :)

    I looked at this watch for awhile before deciding to buy. I'm so glad I did! It does everything and more. I'm still learning everything, but I don't have any bad things to say about it. You do have to charge it often, but I've gotten in routine of that so I'm not taken by surprise when it gets low. It counts steps better than other "fitness" brands, and I love the stretch reminder! My only regret is not buying this watch sooner!

    Yes, it has all the stuff I've been waiting for: round design, relatively slim, fairly realistic watch faces, the ability to read texts... But the one thing I didn't realize I would use as much as I have is the phone feature. I can't tell you how many times I've been driving and forgot to bring my bluetooth earpiece, or it's buried in my pocket when a call comes in. The ability to answer on my wrist, and talk and be understood simply by keeping my hand on the steering wheel is the best feature. Sure, you can make Dick Tracey jokes, but this one feature has made it all worthwhile.

    I've purchased this for my daughter. So far she loved it because its lightweight. More than just a watch because it reminds you of your appointments as well as alarms, notify you if you have messages without carrying your phone all thè time. It's not loud enough if you use it answering calls in a noisy environment. Better to have it paired to a BT earphones. Battery life is not impressive especially if you use it like playing your music otherwise use your phone if you want to prolonged battery for the day.

    I purchased the Active 2 to replace my Fitbit. I love all of the features especially answering calls and texts without having my phone sitting right next to me. The only downside is the battery life is at most 48 hours for me. I need to look into maybe some changing some settings to get more battery life. Except for that, very pleased with my purchase.

    Bought for wife since she is the more active person in family. She loves it. She has been through several fitness watches; Polar, Fitbits only have lasted maybe two years. I have a 2 year old Samsung smartwatch which I haven't had problems. Nice thing about this watch is that it is for exercise active people and provides smartwatch options. Highly recommend it. Has more sensors than other brand-name active watches.

    The Galaxy Watch Active 2 is a great device, however, it has some scope for improvement. Pros: 1) Simple yet sleek design 2) Good standby time 3) Significantly accurate activity tracking 4) Seamless connectivity with Samsung device Cons: 1) Samsung needs to reintroduce the weight management feature 2) Since the watch supports it, ECG and BP monitor feature should be introduced at the earliest.

    Samsung GearFit Active 2 - Awesome

    My Wife has used the Samsung Smartwatches since the first gearfit. These have severed her well. However, not a go out and party styling. That has all changed with the Active 2. This is durable, functional, long lasting between charges and very elegant watch. She gets a lot of compliments on it. I have always been a non-galaxy Smartwatch user, but this new Active-2 has me reconsidering. I feel the 42mm for men is in my future.

    The watch is nice. I like the fact that you can choose a variety of watch face. You can respond to messages in a variety of ways: quick responses, write it out, or talk txt. You can add apps, play games, listen to muisc. The only down fall is listening to music plays on the cellphone only not on device. You can adjust brightness, and volume of ring tone. The only downfall is that the watch last about 2 days of not using it so much. If you actively exercise it probably won't last 2 days. Overall its a pretty good watch to have.

    I love that I can actually talk on my watch. I love that it keeps me motivated by telling me to keep moving.

You can test your hart rate & track sleeping. I like that it tracks my steps. I love the look of the watch. You can dress it up or down.
