Integrates Well with Samsung's Ecosystem
Rating: 5
i recently upgraded to a samsung galaxy s10e and wanted a fitness tracker that would integrate with the samsung health app. i switched from a garmin fitness tracker and have been using the galaxy fit for about a month now and i love it. the interface is easy to use/navigate and i love being able to get notifications from my phone on my fit. (the garmin wearable's notifications didn't work as well as i would like.) the heart rate tracker, sleep tracker, and fitness tracker all work well. i use this to track my runs and if you run with your phone like i do, the samsung health app on the phone will also record your gps settings from your run as well! overall, this is an excellent product for the price and i personally prefer this because it plays well with samsung's other apps.

Great Watch - Tracker
Rating: 4
The watch is great. I can read and see everything on the watch out in the bright sun, I don't worry about it getting wet while doing dishes etc. It has a big bright interface and syncs with Samsung Health. The only reason it didn't get five starts is that I would like the home screen to have the date on it. I can add my calendar to it but that is the second screen. Compared to the two fitbits I had, I would buy this one again and recommend.

Good watch for the price
Rating: 4
Love it. The only thing I miss on this that the bigger Samsung watches have is "Find my phone". I like the buckle on this one more than the one with the bigger watch face. I have had 2 of the bigger Samsung watches and they didn't last more than a year so I didn't want to pay a lot of $$$ but still wanted the exercise tracking functionality that interfaced well with Samsung phone.

An excellent Fit with Galaxy S10
Rating: 4
Overall very satisfied, easily connected to Galaxy S10 thru Gear app. For small wrist need a band retainer. I use 10% power in a day and recharges in less than hour. Recommend a start screen for exercise. Recommend auto adjustable to light.

Simple Features, Lousy band.
Rating: 3
I bought this back in December of 2019. I like everything about it except the band. The end tucks under and because the material is some kind of rubber or plastic the only way I can get it off is to use some kind of tool to get it off. Presently there are no other bands available for this unit.

Just ok
Rating: 3
I should have spent more money and purchased a fit smart watch that had the display on all of the time. Even though, you have to turn on the display with a wrist turn or pushing the button, it seems to run out of charge quickly. The watch works fine and keeps the data I need: time, steps, weather, etc. It does not sync with my computer only with my phone, which is also a disappointment.

Not as good as I had hoped.

Worked good at first. But the battery life is getting shorter and shorter. It's taking longer to charge also. I've only had it about three weeks. I still haven't figured out how to give quick response to texts.

The watch has great features, especially if you use Samsung products. The battery was great for exactly ONE WEEK, then it started to die. Even after trouble-shooting everything, I have to charge it daily. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND.

Avoid at all costs! you've been warned
Rating: 1
This is the worst quality watch I've ever owned. I'm currently on my 3rd watch within 2 months. I'd switch except i can only exchange for same one unfortunately. First one quit charging after 2 weeks and the screen refused to do anything except flash colors. 2nd one the band broke after 3 weeks (connection the watch itself) I'll just keep exchanging it until my time runs out. (no pun intended) Cant believe Samsung would allow such a low quality item when normally they have decent quality.

14 months later & I still LOVE the Samsung Active
Rating: 5
It was back in early 2019 that I purchased the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active, months later the Active 2 was released. I sold my Active and Purchased the Active 2. Months later, November 2019, I purchased my first Active 2 LTE and then sold my Active 2. Yeah, the Active 2 LTE has been my favorite smartwatch in the last five years!!! Here's my YouTube channel in which I have tested the watch and added VLOG style posts.

Better than my Apple watch 3
Rating: 5
Im in love with this smart watch! Is way better than my apple watch 3. If you are going to buy the Galaxy watch active 2 invest the extra $150 for the LTE version, I bought the regular watch and end up changing it for the LTE version which is PREMIUM in ALL the sense of the word.

Cool Watch!
Rating: 4
Great watch. It has a lot going on. I only hope that an update will eventually allow it to support a trail hiking gps map system. That will make it "whole for me". That was the main reason for me purchasing it. The name "Active 2" made me assume that it would support more gps aps.

Galaxy Active 2 Needs Improvment
Rating: 3
Samsung really makes Good Hardware, But software I don't think so. But Samsung Active 2 Hardware is very Nicely Design, But Software wise is Behind Google Wear OS, I don't like the Tizen Software lacks of Pure Android Apps and the Samsung App Store is really Bad., I come from a Fossil 5G with Wear OS and it had most Android stock apps Like Google Play Music, and a lot of Stock Android Apps, Samsung Needs to End TIZEN and BITZY, and add better specs to its Samsung Smart Watch, Samsung should dedicate making Hardware not Software.

Rating: 3
I bought this 2 weeks ago with the understanding that it is a standalone device. Unfortunately, even if you purchase the LTE version you will still be tethered to your phone by the short range leash of bluetooth if you're on certain carrier networks. I've learned this the hard way. No one tells you this till you find out your watch keeps going out of range and becomes useless as a standalone device, as advertised. My carrier is Sprint and they only fessed up after I spoke with Samsung. Doesn't always track steps if your arms are not in a certain position and motion. Disconnects from WIFI and network thorough out the day.

Hard to Sync!!!!!!
Rating: 2
I bought the Gold 44m. On 12-26-19. And could not get it to sync to my Note 9. So I am returning it back to the store for another one. If this does not work Samsung you all need to try it again. It should not be this hard to sync a Samsung device to another Samsung device.

Way too buggy and was pointless to get LTE model
Rating: 1
I purchased this mainly for the sleep tracking, but I was hoping to use it for a lot more. Unfortunately, it has far too many bugs and has proven to be completely unreliable. For instance, it will miss entire nights sleep, will count time on the charger as being asleep, and oddly enough, it will correctly detect that I'm awake in the sleep tracking (for some reason, "awake" is one category of sleep that it uses), but will still count that as time "asleep", so even when it correctly (believably?) detects my sleep it still gives an inflated amount. Also, its heart tracking is horrendous! It often has me at 30-50 extra bpm when I use the tracking. The only way I've found to get it to correct itself is to change it back to manual, then do a handful of manual readings. Each reading will be roughly 10-15 bpm less until it gets down to the (hopefully) accurate value. My biggest complaint though is that I paid for the LTE version so that I could use it independently of my cell phone. This only works as intended if it's in frequent range of my cell and my cell is turned on. If my phone shuts down or restarts for any reason (low power, etc), the watch software stops it from being usable for ANYTHING other than the watch face itself. You can't even adjust the watch brightness or mute it without having to go to your phone, charge it, power it back on, and unlock your phone. So don't even think about hoping to use this in AN EMERGENCY... There have been a lot of other issues, but those are ones that make it amount to little more than an expensive fashion piece. I wish I'd gotten a different brand. Can't mention any other brands in reviews per their guidelines, but sounds like (don't) 'get this'.

This watch absolutely sucks.

i got the watch to use on my workouts and record my runs more accurately but the battery dies with little to no use. i charged the device to 100% and 4 hours later its completely dead, the power save mode doesn't help much either.

BLACK SCREEN - UNRESPONSIVE- NO FIX
Rating: 1
BLACK SCREEN - After owning for two weeks, I didnt want to wear it without a protective cover, so I waited another week for it to arrive. Once it arrived I was anxious to put it to use. The watch was charged to 89% as indicated by the Wearable app on my phone. I turned it on, I could feel the haptic response when moving my finger around the bezel...no screen response. Tried all options noted by other customers. Reboot, hold power button, hold both buttons 15 seconds...nothing. Black screen. Samsung rep stated no other customers have experienced this. Not true. Even though there are responses from their technicians on their website, the tech still denied anyone else had the same issue. So...either mail back for repair and wait or return for a refund. Disappointed for sure.
