    I received this watch as a gift and I absolutely love it. The sound quality on the phone is better than I expected and it's nice that you can reply to email and text. The only thing that is challenging is that there is no keyboard however you have the option to speak text or write it out. The other great feature is its a fitness watch and it reminds you to stay active along with keeping track of your heart rate and workout. This watch is the est of both worlds (fitness & smart) Also The battery lasts for 2 to 3 days which awesome.

    I've been enjoying this watch. It took a little getting used to since I didn't have a previous watch, but it is not bulky, and the battery lasts several days at a time. I use it primarily as a fitness tracker with a Samsung phone and the apps are very well coordinated. I purchased a leather strap and a screen protector right away and both were excellent choices. I am also glad I opted for the larger one since this is not uncomfortably large and the smaller one would probably be too small for my hands.

    The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 is just the perfect smartwatch for me. I love the size and readability of the screen. The interface is very intuitive and you can even set up Samsung Pay to use NFC with a connected debit or credit card without needing to take out wallet. The built in GPS is awesome when it pairs with your phone, it will show you turn by turn and vibrate to notify you. The battery life is about two to three days of fairly heavy use as well. I could not be happier with this watch.

    Paired with Pixel4XL. Previously owned Moto 360, Fossil Gen 1 and Gen 3. First off this is a major upgrade in hardware from my previous watches, The screen is BEAUTIFUL and the main reason I switched from WearOS. It's clear, clean and snappy. The fitness and health tracking is far superior to anything running WearOS, Not a huge concern of mine, but the health tracking has been an added bonus. Negatives for me are the lack of google integration. WearOS does notifications and texting better. Messaging was better on WearOS. I am hoping the google assitant deal goes through with samsung to replace their Bixby with Google Assistant.

    This is a great watch. I had the previous model, I think it was the Samsung Galaxy S 2, and the battery life sucked. This one has excellent battery life. The large screen also really helps. I like how I can take phone calls from it as well (Note, you don't need a LTE version). And a cool feature on this watch is you can put it in water mode where it blocks you from accidentally activating a feature on the watch while you are swimming. A good watch that goes with anything you wear.

    Amazing watch, does so much and so light in weight

    Wow, this watch is amazing. It is so light in weight, battery lasts about 4 days and looks awesome on my wrist. It does alot, steps, Samsung pay, make calls on it from pm phone, text messages and emails are sent to it. I conducted a reply to email on it. It was very easy to use. I had the the lte model of 46mm and it was awesome too, but was supper heavy in weight. I was kinda surprised when I started using this watch, and was like well it's so light, seemed new and shiny and kinda sceptical it would not hold up or keep up due to my last watch. This truly is amazing and it's the newer year version. I was so excited I made the jump, and I got the bluetooth version over the LTE because I was not excited in the monthly charge that came along with the LTE version. Except I left my phone at home one day and I had the LTE watch and was able to pay for stuff that day vs going back home to grab the phone. But I'm sure I can let that go and just make sure I keep the phone close by. It is so much easier to use then the last years model, so glad I got this one. I so recommend this even if its your first time watch. You wont be disappointed, only amazed and excited in the purchase.

    Can't live without my Samsung Active 2 watch. I had stopped wearing watches and wasn't happy with fitness devices, so I was somewhat reluctant to purchase this. I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and needed to monitor my exercise program more diligently, and this was the tool to do it. I love the features and ability to connect to my Galaxy S21 phone and my earphones. I would recommend this to anyone who is in the Samsung camp.

    Positives: This watch is really easy to use and I love the way it automatically detects that I am exercising and starts keeping stats. It also very good and turning on when I turn my wrist to look at it. The sleep feature is my favorite and the one I use the most. Negative: The one thing I don't like is the confusion around whether or not it can take blood pressure. Samsung says its capable, the problem is that it seems to not be approved in the US. So I bought it with the expectation I could use it for blood pressure and that was a disappointment.

    Bought this in hopes of having a watch that'd spur me on to be more active. I've had it for about 6 months now and it has certainly worked. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of higher priced watches, but it has done its job of keeping me more aware of my activity levels while working a desk job and enticing me to get some more exercise. Simple but sharp looking, I've worn it daily for 6 months and will gladly continue to for as long as the watch keeps working. Still holds an excellent charge for 3-4 days.

    Love this watch! I went through 3 Fitbits(charge 2, special edition Versa & Versa 2 lite) within the span of 4 yrs... So I was ready for a different brand of watch. I bought my mom this exact one for Christmas and ended up buying myself one about a month ago. Love the features, size, apps, battery life is manageable. The thing that has spoiled me with it is I now have the option to send and receive phone calls via watch. Amazing. 100% recommend.
