The Samsung - Galaxy Watch Active2 Smartwatch 40mm Aluminum - Pink Gold is wonderful. I am in love with this watch. First of all I love the color of it. It's a very high quality watch. It's made nice and strong. This watch has so much stuff that it does and many things you can see on it instead of reaching for your phone. My favorite part of this watch is I can see who is calling me, answer and talk through my watch. I can recieve text messages, read them and respond on my watch. You can get all kinds of notifications on this watch, from texts, to emails, to weather, whatever you have it set on. I also like the actual health app on the watch, and it tracks your daily steps. It can do alot under the health app and measure different things on your body. I also really like how we can put so many colorful watch faces on our watch, I am just so in love with this watch just because it gives us so much access to alot of things without looking at our phones. I do definitely recommend one of these watches they are the best.

I purchased this to replace my Galaxy Sport watch. I love it! My wrist is small so I love the size of the 40mm. It doesn't look bulky at all. I don't miss the rotating bezel from the sport and the pink gold color is a very nice touch. Overall, I love the watch.

The Galaxy Watch Active 2 is one of the best purchases that I've ever made in wearable technology. It delivers with more than adequate battery life, far superior comfort when compared to other products, a feature set that will appease most so-called "Geeks" such as myself, and the availability to add more features and/or applications via the Galaxy app store. The new customizable watch face feature makes the creation of customizable watch faces easy and simple. With just a snap of your clothing, and multiple watch faces are created for you that match your outfit. I also appreciate the much slimmer and sleeker design, when compared to the regular Galaxy Watch. With that, I can confidently say that (at least in my opinion) the Watch Active2 is the most fashionable, functional and flexible. (The Three Fs, as I call it.) It is fashionable, due to its sleek glass, (in my case) aluminum housing, and unobtrusive thickness that is no thicker (if not, thinner) than your average premium analog watch. It is functional, due to the fact that you have all the basic necessities that any digital watch should have PLUS, step tracking, workout tracking, heart rate monitoring, upcoming electrocardiogram capability, text messaging, the ability to accept, decline, and create phone calls, pay for things using Samsung pay, find your phone, the creation and cancellation of alarms and reminders, the ability to check the weather, and have music playback controls (also including track selection), just to name a few. (And I don't think I really need to explain why I think it's so flexible). And just to mention other things I love about the Watch Active2, I love the touch bezel (which is much better than you think it is), I love the SAMOLED display that by default automatically dims to fit the environment that it's in along with providing smooth animations, I love the now larger back button so you can tell that it's different if you're in the dark, I love the ability to triple click the apps/home button to send a message to your emergency contact(s), and so much more. Now here's the part where I would usually explain the cons of the watch/device. But there was an issue, I struggled to come up with any. I would usually have a very long laundry list of cons, but I really don't have any. The only part I can say is a con, is that some people aren't satisfied with the accuracy of the health tracking features. Maybe it's just me, but I really haven't had any. The lack of feminine health tracking might be a con to some women, but I'm not female, so... That doesn't apply to me... That's all I can really say. So in the end, if you are currently looking for a smartwatch to go with your Android device, then I say you should absolutely go with this one. It has many a feature that the competition do not supply, has great battery life, a digital rotating bezel that is the best way to interact with it, a decent amount of customization, and health tracking that I believe to be accurate. (Disclaimer: I am not a health professional by any means, and therefore I am not the first person you should listen to when it comes to advice about health tracking). So, I say it is a very worthy purchase. And I am enjoying my time with it.
