Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 review: Samsung's best wearable!
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 is an impressive successor to the original Galaxy Watch Active, which also featured a lightweight and sleek design meant to be worn 24/7 by active users. While slightly larger and heavier than the previous model, the Active2 is an exceptionally comfortable and easy-to-use wearable, with a strong multi-day battery life and the connectivity features you’d expect from the best smartwatches, including the ability to receive and send calls and text messages, as well as standalone use with LTE connectivity.
Other exciting improvements revolve around advanced health and fitness features that rival Apple and Fitbit models. Wellness enthusiasts and runners will enjoy the new VO2 max feature, running analytics, and ECG monitoring support, and all users can rest easy with fall detection. While iOS users with an iPhone 5 and newer will find compatibility, it's more limited than Android or Galaxy users.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 is sleek, sporty and easy to navigate. It comes with a vibrant SUPER AMOLED 360×360 1.2-inch display that’s easy to read in all different lighting conditions with adjustable brightness levels, the ability to use an upward wrist motion or tap to wake, and the option of an always-on display.
