    My open box ourchsse for this watch was absolutely terrible. First, it came with no wrist bands or charger, so i purchased those separately. I charged it, set it up and realized what was relaly wrong. It held vharge for all of 4hrs and that was it. I had 2 weeks to test it out, which i was glad. I had to return it because charging every 4hours became a chore. But I still have faith in ipen box items from best buy. I just wished they wouldnt sell such utter crap.

    This is the first smart watch since my Huawei watch. It’s a lovely watch it works really well it has decent battery life which is key for me. It’s a freestanding phone as well as a smart watch tied to my main phone I like that too. Glad I got it.

    I had a Michael Kors smart watch. The Micheal Kors watch was pretty, but does not do what this watch does. The Samsung - Galaxy Watch Active2 Smartwatch does everything that I need for it to do to keep up with my busy day and even holds a charge

    Love the way the watch looks and feels. The gold is subtle and works daily as well as on special occasions. I wish the band was a tad bit more comfortable. Hence the 4 stars.

    Picked this up for my girlfriend, definitely one of the best looking smartwatches out there! Beautiful OLED display and decent battery life! This gold version definitely has more of a Rose gold tint to it.

    Samsung! Great product! What can I say? This gift went over big time. Small case, elegant, light weight... She loves it. Changed bands to Rose Gold Bling etc. and now she can talk on her watch like Dick Tracy!

    Sleek design, fits great, and comes in handy. It makes texting while busy great with voice text and keeps me updated on important things from my calendar. The call option works great too.

    The first day went great. Battery life was amazing. After syncing my phone to the mobile network, everything went down hill. The battery does not hold a charge. I'm talking lost 30 percent in under 30 minutes. It burned my arm because it over heated. I tried updating and factory resetting. I am still having the same problems. BEYOND upset I paid 500 for a useless watch. Will be returning.

    Love it. I don't loose my phone anymore. It's semi waterproof when sailing. Phone secured in gig bag under front hull, watch is always on my wrist. 2nd nice feature is I can call for help if I have an emergency at home.

    Overall, I like the product. I am frustrated by the limitation for weight loss with the samsung app, and with the limitations of what weight loss apps that are compatible.

    Got his for my wife. Surprisingly, she loves it and uses it all the time! The LTE feature lets her go without her phone when out for walks or going to the gym. Works great so far!

    I like this watch. Don't love it. I'm still trying to learn it. It does bug me that the home button on the side continues to be accidentally pushed and activates the face swap option

    I purchased this watch on May 6 2020. The watch is beautiful but the battery life is not even a full 24-hours and that is with few apps open and power-save on. This watch is way too expensive to have such a battery with a short life. Tracks steps, Peloton, and calories fairly well but because it does not include calorie value for incline on treadmill, its calorie count is always less than what the treadmill records.

    Beware of color

    Black is not black - more of a deep blue/black and gold is not a true gold- more of a rose gold. Disappointed since I ordered a black stainless band to match.
