Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 40mm SM-R500

The newest Samsung Galaxy sport watch is known as Galaxy Watch Active. Will the new features and enhancements make this an active mover in the marketplace? Early indications suggest it will.


Bye bye bezel

The first change you'll notice is the removal of the rotating bezel used in its predecessors. Instead, the Active is operated by touchscreen and two low-profile buttons on the edge of the watch.  


Less bulk, more comfort

The Active is slimmer and more streamlined than its predecessors, making it a superbly comfortable watch to wear. The stretchy strap adds to the comfort, and it also allows the Active to be laid flat on a surface, meaning you can use the watch’s wireless charging facility to top up the battery on any charging pad. 


A super-sporty smartwatch

The Galaxy Watch Active is a fitness-orientated smartwatch, so you can expect it to monitor every core activity you're into. Steps, calories, heart rate and sleep are all tracked, while the built in GPS means you can monitor runs and bike rides without needing a smartphone. Its excellent water-resistant qualities make it perfect for swimmers too.


It does everything else too

Like a great smartwatch should, the Watch Active has music playback controls via Spotify, smartphone notifications, and NFC for contactless payment. Samsung is also excited to announce a choice of 60,000 different watch faces! The new dual-core 1.1GHz processor will keep everything humming along nicely, and should extend the battery life.

Do not use in water

Got this watch in April, used in in the sea and it stopped working, samsung wants to charge £269 to fix it, more than a new one!!!! They said you can only use it in freshwater which it does not say this anywhere. Was used in a pool ands no problems. Do not buy this if you want to dip it in water.

So I'm going with a 3/5 for this not for the device (which is a solid 5/5) but the fact that I assumed I was getting a Canadian version since I bought it on Amazon.ca. However I recieved an international version. How does this matter you may ask, Well for most things it doesn't.

Lovely design; Great build quality; Good price; Easy to use interface; Good fitness tracking options

Bixby isn't strong; No rotating bezel; No LTE model; Tizen OS still lacks apps; Active 2 has more features

Samsung Galaxy Watch Active review: Slim, sporty, lightweight

Think of this as a smaller, sportier version of the Galaxy Watch. Thanks to a fabulous display, good battery life for its size, easy-to-use interface, and premium finish, it's up there with some of the best-looking smartwatches on the market. But with the Active 2 now also available, the original model feels a step behind - unless you can find a bargain price.

Lovely design; Great build quality; Good price; Easy to use interface; Good fitness tracking options;

Bixby isn't strong; No rotating bezel; No LTE model; Tizen OS still lacks apps; Active 2 has more features;

Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 review

With two-day battery life, excellent design, and fitness features that don’t overpower the overall experience, the Galaxy Watch Active 2 is one of the best smartwatches you can buy for an Android phone.
