Brilliant smart watch for good price!
I use this with iOS and can whole heartedly recommend instead of Apple Watch easily for the price and features. The only downside is I can't use Samsung Pay as iOS doesn't have an app for it and I can't reply to texts/emails from the watch but I can make and receive phone calls which is perfect for...
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 LTE review: A capable, connected, smartwatch
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 LTE review: Samsung has now added a touch-based digital bezel on the side and introduced an LTE variant. Here’s our review for the same
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 (44MM, Gold) - Excellent review
The trouble with releasing a follow-up device so soon after the first is there may not be too much to shout about- Looks great, Digital bezel works well, Fantastic screen
- Battery life could be better, Samsung Health isn’t great, Some menu items are hard to find
For me a good replacement for Apple series 4
My second hand 40mm Apple Watch had certain failings, battery and small watch face. I was swayed by the sale offer of $200 off and I find it works well with the iphone11, my only draw back is not being able to checkout emails, but that is not a show stopper. Message alerts, sleep tracking, activity tracking, alarms and timers all work for me just takes a couple of days to adjust as with any new tech device. Nice large face which with most watch faces uses a low power mode which makes the readable without elevating the wrist. Good batt life but again dependant on the number of apps in play. Display provides more help and assistance and of course more readable with the larger display.
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 (44MM, Gold) - Excellent review
The Galaxy Watch Active 2 has received a heap of new features that make it a seriously excellent smartwatch in 2021. Its mix of price, compact sporty build and decent health features put it at the top table of smartwatch options, with plenty of deals available.- Still a lovely smartwatch to wear, Rotating bezel, Feature-packed for the price, ECG and blood pressure
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 review: ‘good' is as good as it gets
I have been using the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 for about a week now, and it has accomplished something remarkable: it's made me decide to stop saying there are no good smartwatch options for Android users.- Touch-sensitive bezel
- Offline Spotify
- Decent battery life
- Requires too many Samsung phone apps to work
- Bixby
- No good mapping solutions
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 Review
The Active2 is one of the best you can get for those without iOS phones- Stylish, Great display, Comprehensive fitness tracking
- Unimpressive battery life, App compatibility could be better
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 is a solid smartwatch, but unless you want LTE connectivity, there's very little reason to buy it instead of saving some money on the original model.- Digital rotating bezel makes navigation easier
- Available in two sizes
- LTE connectivity
- Inconsistent battery life and fitness accuracy in testing
- Limited iOS compatibility
- Thick bezel
Samsung's Latest Watch is Great, but We Prefer the Old One
The company's latest sports watch is a little bigger and a little more expensive than the last one.- Beautiful, especially if you want a stylish, analog-style watch. Improved battery life. Works with both Android and iOS watches. Digital bezel restores a beloved Samsung feature. Charges on the back of your Samsung phone. Cheery encouragement to get active.
- Unless you're super stoked on a digital bezel and bigger size, you might want to stick to the Galaxy Active. Battery life still isn't great. Limited functionality with iOS.
Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 Review
Overall, the Active 2 is still a great option for Androiders looking for a decent smartwatch with cellular connectivity. If you like the look and feel of the Watch Active 2 but you don’t have cash to burn and don’t care about LTE connectivity, you might as well opt for the older Samsung Galaxy Watch...
