having a smart watch is way more useful then i would've though. i just recently purchased it but fell in love instantly. yes, there are some issues like some music apps not working sometimes and messages taking a little longer to come threw but other than that it's a 10/10
i simply love my watch. it has excellent features and a plethora of watch faces. i wish it had more apps but it really does a lot of things already. it fits wonderfully and i have no problem wearing it comfortably throughout the day. my concerns are battery life i get about a day and a half of usuage. i also wish the samsung health app worked as it once did with just the phone. my app no longer has the 0² monitor. at least not that i can find and the heart rate is strictly through the watch. wish i could do those as i choose. but those are really minor nitpicky inconveniences. this watch is really nice and the rotating bezel is a joy to use.
i had an older galaxy watch, had to be at least 4 years old so the active 2 is quite a step up. the only thing i didn't like was the band, the need to tuck the strap back into your wrist after buckling just doesn't sit well with me, so i purchased one separately. battery life could be improved. i love all the features, especially the new health options, ecg etc. i have high bp so this is exactly what i needed. very user friendly as long as long as you do not turn on the voice assistant, lol.
everything about this watch is smooth. from the way it looks, the way it function. everything works fine. the only con is the battery, i can go from the start of my day to the next morning with only 50%, but unfortunately the other 50% percent don't last a day...more like 4hrs....don't get it. so i have to charge the watch daily cause it won't last couple of days like advertised
I would recommend this to a friend!

Crazy Wicked Cool

my first experience with wearing a "fitness watch" was with a fitbit & i liked it. i stopped wearing it for several years & decided to jump back into the pool after getting my new galaxy note 20. i decided to go w/ the galaxy watch active2 because i wanted to be able to pair it to my new phone. i am so glad i did. the watch does so much & i keep discovering new things it can do, it is crazy wicked cool (do the kids still say that?) i love how easy it is to switch out the bands, because yes, i need to accessorize, along with that, switching faces is super easy too. i have had to trouble pairing it with my phone. the overall look & functionality has been great. earbuds my just be next in my “galaxy” (see what i did there?)!!
