Great watch at a good price! The LTE feature is nice, have to add to phone plan to be able to use it but if my phone dies, I will still get texts and calls to my watch. Must have for people that can't afford to miss a call

Bought this for my husband, he absolutely loves it! He works in construction and has yet to break it, which is amazing. He now leaves his phone in a safe place since he can get calls and text on his watch. Saves us a ton of money on phone replacements!

Significantly lighter and more comfortable than my galaxy watch 46mm. Looks great. I'm athletic, so i replaced the stock band with a silicon one right away. The silicon seems more comfortable than the stock band. The heart rate monitor is only "meh" with exercise, in my experience.

I had an old version of Samsung Watch. This one is a much better and improved upgrade. I am loving it. It looks like a rich, classic watch. Best upgrade is ECG and improved heart rate. The battery life is good too. One full charge easily lasts more than 2 full days.

Bought it to track my golf game on the course. Works great. I use a golf app and record each club and stroke. Battery makes it through 18 holes without an issue. I do charge it every night. Pairs well with my Samsung phone.

I love Samsung devices and this is a great watch! I work on care for a living and it gets hit everyday and this stainless steel takes the abuse. I'm glad I went with the LTE with the stainless steel, because I'm not to sure how the aluminum would hold up. This was is light and it does it all. I also wear it while working out, I wipe the sweat off it when I'm done, and it's good to go. I get about 2 and a half days of battery, which is the only downfall because if you compare to other competitors such as the Amazfit GTS 2 which has VO² and other features that the Galaxy Watch Active 2 has, and get about 5 to 7 days. I've had Amazfit watches before though and you're limited on face designs, so I recommend sticking with Samsung if that's what you're used to.

This was my first smart watch, so I'm easy to please. But I wasn't. The battery life is pretty bad on this thing. I had to charge it every day if I was on bluetooth, and every half day if I was on LTE. I found spotify hard to navigate on the watch and it would randomly disconnect from bluetooth.
Additionally, the watch would get hot. I ran on an indoor track for only a mile and it said it was overheating. If a watch is going to be called active, then maybe it should hold up to the activ-ities. The very next day, the battery dropped over half in an hour. Maybe I got a defective one. None the less, I returned it.

Disclaimer - I think this was an open box purchase, but it came with it's original box and band ,with zero tarnishes or any immediately noticable problems.
This was not my first smart watch. I had used Fitbit and Garmin. something I really appreciated about my Fitbit was that not only did it read my pulse and sleep, but also my Spo2, which I follow closely because of medical reasons. I was rather disappointed to learn that the ability to detect Spo2 was not available.
Another problem I encountered was nearly constant disconnecting from Bluetooth and Wireless. I had set notifications to inform me whenever this happened, and it was so frequent that I turned notifications off in annoyance. Updates would either resolve the issue, but then bring it back later, or just make it worse in general.
Next would be battery life . When I first began using this watch, it could last two days before needing to charge. But after about six months of use, it began to require more frequent charges. Mind, I didn't use any excessive watch faces , and didn't add music onto the device . Storage and Ram were mostly free .
But after almost a year, this watch will lost almost 60% battery life from full after maybe 90 minutes. This renders the watch unusable for me . This became exceptionally worse after each watch update. Resetting the device multiple times did nothing.
I am convinced that Samsung has no idea what they're doing in regards to updates. They're far and few between, and they seem to cause more problems than they fix.
I still wanted to have a Smartwatch, as the convenience is necessary for my busy life. So hopefully most of these issues will be resolved with the Galaxy Watch 4, which does come with SP02 reader!

Had watch for 2 months. I keep it in its own data instead of bluetooth. When i had it on bluetooth and somebody called, 50% of the time, when i answered it on my watch it told me to check my phone. The call had automatically answered on my phone, which i would have to fumble through my purse hoping that the caller would not hang up before i was able to get to it.
The bad thing about not using bluetooth is that any alarms set on your phone won't send to your watch.
All that said, i do love my watch!

I have 6 inch wrists....but got the larger one! So glad I did....as a senior I know I wouldn't have been able to read the smaller one. I hooked up to Verizon 4 g late using the Samsung wearables app. It was a snap. I can listen to music...read and respond to texts...make and receive calls....watch you tube...listen to music...install familiar apps....change watch faces in a snap! It's fun....and heart rate and steps seem to be fairly accurate. A really great watch!!
