    My wife loves this watch and has now converted over from Fitbit. The ONLY thing is, with all Samsung watches (even my own as well) the battery life needs improvement. A battery life of 2 days is kind of tough. Other than that, the watch is really nice

    It's great. Don't have any major issues. Sometimes the battery drains quickly. Once in a while the notifications don't come through. Overall good.

    If this is your first smart watch, it will be great! I came from the Apple watch to the Active 2 as I switched platforms for my phone. The Apple watch would not sync to the Samsung phone, so I had to switch. Watch is functionally good, does what its supposed to do and is smaller than the Apple watch. It does feel cheaper made than the Apple watch, the heart rate monitor is not as advanced as the other product, but works. I would also buy some form of screen protector as the screen was scratched twice in the first week of owning it. Would I buy again? Yes if I bought another Samsung phone.

    Excellent product. Lightweight, lots of watch faces to change and play with, also, many interchangeable bands are available, to match your dressing style, including stainless silver. I use it all day, and the battery lasts for an entire day for me. The best I get out from this watch is when I use it for running/jogging when it shows my heart rate continuously and I can adjust my pace and be in either zone 2 or 3 for endurance/weight loss. Also, Samsung will be rolling out ECG and blood pressure monitor in the coming days. All excited about those features. I would recommend it to any one.

    I bought this when I got a new phone to help when I'm busy. So far it has been great for what I need. Only downside is the battery seems to need to be charged every day. I guess if you remember to charge it often it won't matter.

    I purchased this product for my wife because of its features. We are "senior citizens" and are blessed to be healthy. She is into physical exercise, especially power walking. She was so excited, Whenever we walk together, she wears her active2, she can track her steps and since we have it paired to her phone it becomes her "Dick Tracy wrist phone". The watch as so many nice feature and you can download an app to your Samsung phone called Galaxy wearable. The wearable has an app called find my watch that will dial your phone so that you can locate it, if it is within range.

    We tried a few different smart watches for my wife, from the original Active (which didn't have a microphone for calls) to a pre-owned Gear watch (which didn't have a good battery). The Active2 is just right for her -- chose the 40mm size which we thought would be too small of a screen but the software makes good use of the real estate. Wife says it's comfortable too with the silicone band. Battery life is excellent and the magnetic charger attaches nicely to both the watch and the metal on our microwave... :). And yes, you can make and take calls on the Active2 (via Bluetooth, since we chose a non-carrier model).

    I got this when I thought my older first gen, refurbished watch was going down. Turned out the charger was not plugged in properly so I decided to try this new out and kept it. It has a really loud alarm on it that I thought was coming from someone's phone. The band is better than previous model, has a hole for sliding excess between band and wrist so no more sliding of the band "belt" and having a tail pop out. My older watch required to turn the top like a dial, this one, you just run your finger around edge and is more intuitive. Love it. Overall layout of apps/options are better and to me, more easily visible.

    Does everything it says it will. So far, the only downside is the battery. You definitely have to charge it everyday and not have as many widgets. The fit is good. If it's supposed to be black, it doesn't look it. It's navy.

    I'm very happy with this watch! The size is very reasonable and is the best android version of the apple watch. Just make sure that you have a Samsung phone in order to take full advantage of the features.

    Got this a gift for my wife as she already had the Galaxy S10. She loves the watch, synced without any issues. It picks up her workouts quite well and the size doesn't overwhelm her wrist compared to other smartwatches on the market.
