    it was purchased for my 78 year old mother who is at home due to covid for Christmas. This has easy text reading, email reading, exercise reminders, step counter, heart rate, and find my phone. The ease of use is why I picked this unit.

    highly recommend for smaller wrists. Have the galaxy watch as well and found it to be too heavy for my wrists for long term wear. Switched to this watch and I barely even notice it's there. Also have a galaxy phone and they are seamless together.

    My wife has been a persistent Fitbit user (I can’t get her to switch to Apple products) and she recently took the leap to a galaxy watch and she loves it. It is a huge step up from Fitbit and much easier to use with way more features!

    Did lot of comparisons for smartwatches (Android only), finally bought this is thanksgiving deal. Display is very nice and smooth, syncs perfectly with Android, looks perfect on the wrist and has some very nice watch faces, overall very satisfied with the product.

    I brought this watch as an open box package. I paid much less that the asking price. It came with all the original packaged items. It does have a very minor scratch only I can tell though. I love it and it does everything I need it to.

    A good smart watch, can be a better fitness tracker. Coming from a cheaper fitbit, i was expecting this watch to track my workouts automatically, but it doesn't. You have to always select the workout first before starting to make it work. Battery life is average - 1-2 days on a full charge.

    Love the watch and options. Great way to keep active and count steps, as well as answer calls, etc. Battery life could be better as it dies faster than I originally thought, but no major complaints. Wish there was more info on the options for use and setup. For a new user, it doesn't explain much. Love it so far.

    Excellent smart watch for the money. I can answer my calls, get my messages, monitor my exercise. Super easy to set up. It works on Android phones and I am using it with an apple phone now. Great all round workout apps. Buy this watch.

    I am still figuring out the options, but over all the watch is a good value. I love the band style. The battery only last about a day or 2 but I like that it has a battery saver feature. It looks nice and sleek. I would prefer the square face option though. I think it would be easier to maneuver through the different screens and read txt.

    Great size for me. I had been interested in the flagship model, but felt it was just too big, heavy, and uncomfortable for me to wear. This size is great, and love that it's a hybrid for both being active and general everyday use.

    I just adore this watch, it's fun, comfortable, useful, and I can even shower with it! I like the look, I like the size, I like customizing the look, and I like tracking my steps and workouts... The only thing that I haven't figured out, is why messages I've sent on my phone, that have gone through already, often pop up as an "expired" message on my watch... it may be an app thing... and I've sent texts through my watch easily, using finger writing, but they don't get to the people, I've found out later, nor show up on my phone text history. I don't necessarily think this is an error on the watches part... it's something I need to try and figure out, but I haven't cared enough to do it, honestly. I still love this watch! I've had normal watches over the years, and several fitbit type things too, and I never liked any of them like I like this watch!

    This is my 6th trial to find a decent smart watch. I started with a $36.00 from Amazon. Then I progressed up to a $149.00 from Garmin which I had high hopes for. For one reason or other, broke after days or weeks or no customer service, I bit the bullet and bought the Samsung Galaxy active 2. Good choice. Setup was a snap, ease of use is very intuitive and an abundance of watch faces. I treat his watch more or less as a basic watch. I use steps, weather Samsung Pay, Bixby and notifications. I get 3 days of battery life with about 40% left. Watch brightness is very good, very comfortable to wear. I do agree with some reviews about the vibration for notifications not being strong enough. I've had it for 3 weeks now and I think it is a well made and well designed watch. Keep in mind that there is a learning curve for any smart watch. Be patient,

    I have the small face, fits well and have gotten compliments on it on a few occasions. Overall I'm enjoying it and recommend it. Alerts, talk and text are great. Cons - -Doesn't update as fast as fitbit. -App needs improvement. Especially on the details of your sleep patterns and a female tracker - Volume loudness is low

    I bought this for my wife who immediately loved it. Easy to set up and personalize. The only problem is that it got scratched up (very small nicks) quickly on the sides of the watch near where the glass meets the metal. Other than that, it's a great watch!

    Love the samsung galaxy watch. It is very easy to setup, love the app on my phone and the details that I can get from it. I came from a fitbit versa and had issues with syncing it with my phone all the time. This is by far much easier!

    The watch is great, it (40 mm) is small enough for a small wrist. The silicone band, if not desired, can be replace with most 20mm bands. All works well expect the health monitor. Despite having a Samsung phone it isn't recognized by location to use the monitor. I am working on this with Samsung.
