BEWARE! Sensor cover will fall off.
on June 9, 2020
Posted by: JAMES HESLIN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] great watch until the back sensor cover falls off. then you send it in to get it replaced a few months after buying it. you're within warranty so they glue it back on. guess what? 3 months later it falls off again! for an "active" watch, it has shoddy craftsmanship and poor product quality. i have never swam or gotten water on it and it doesn't matter. the back will fall off. don't waste your time with this watch.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I swapped from being a long time fitbit user to getting the active 2. I opted to get the 44mm watch face and I honestly don't regret it. At first it was interesting to get used to after having a fitbit versa but I really enjoy the larger screen. I also really enjoy how interactive the watch can be. One of my favorite features to use is Good Night mode for bed time. I also really like that i can respond to my Message+ text's. Generally I get anywhere between 2 and a half days to 3 our of my watch unless I am frequently messing with it or using it for workouts.
I am not super thrilled about how short the charging cable itself is, but I just hook it up to my laptop or find a spare charging block to plug it into. Charging isn't THAT fast (about 2+ hours to fully charge from about 10%) but that is also because I don't have any charging blocks (even samsung ones) that match the charging block requirements.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Seems like they sent a refurbished product

Watch looks great but the box came with an uncut sticker over a cut one, and the bezel has weird discoloration that seems to be coming from the underside of the glass since it cant be rubbed away and is only visible in good lighting.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Never Did I!!

i am a strong fitbit user every since my samsung gear fit didn't work right. but i am a even stronger samsung product lover. so, when i got my son a samsung watch for christmas 3 years ago. it made me look at it. i have an fitbit versa 2 and never did i think anything would make me stop wearing it. when the new active 2 came out. it caught my eye. so, i got one. started out just wearing it on the weekend and it soon became my number 1 watch. love the style and shape of it. sorry fitbit you have been replace.

can live without the touch bezel. the workout detcted mode is inaccurate, and id rather not select specfic workouts like dumbbel curls, and squats of i do those and more all in one gym session. but overall. a great watch and contender to the apple watch. battery is amazing. i get more than advertized

Love it! But there is a wish list

First of all I love my GWA2, I came from the Gear Fit and obviously there is a huge difference in form and functionality. That being said there are some things to get used too as well as changes/additions I would like to see Samsung do. First and foremost is the ECG feature, this is a promised feature along with fall detection and neither have been activated. The other is more google integration, I understand it runs on Tizen but Google's "Wear OS" seems smoother than Tizen to add on to that Samsung is still holding on to Bixby being a viable smart assistant, it's not. Bixby is horrible on the galaxy phones and it's 10x worse on the GWA2. Please, please, please removed Bixby and replace it with the Google assistant. Other than those issues the watch looks great, is comfortable and light on the wrist and incorporates very will with the galaxy platform. It has a very decent speaker for taking calls or even watching YouTube videos on and reply to texts are a breeze.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Poor Battery
on August 1, 2020
Posted by: Disappointed
battery life would maybe last 6 hours before being completely drained. this was also on zero use other than just wearing it while sitting at a desk. switched to a fitbit and have had 6+ day battery life on a sibgle charge. this samsung is the worst purchase ive ever made and i ince bought heelys.

Don't buy for health tracking

this product wouldn't know a stair if it hit it in the face. i live on the third and fourth floors of a building with no elevator and this watch never registers me going up stairs. i literally go up and down four stair cases daily and i'm lucky it registers one. fitbit works better. i just wear this to notify me about texts now.
