According to our smartwatch expert
Displays heart rate zones during your workout, so you can focus your training on improving your endurance or burning fat, for example.
You can leave your phone at home when you go for a run, because you can use the watch to listen to your favorite playlists.
In addition to registering your route, the watch navigates you in the right direction.
Is less suitable for frequent or performance-focused runners.
The watch case is relatively small with a diameter of 40mm.
The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active is the sporty version of the Galaxy Watch 42mm. Thanks to its small design, light materials, and accurate tracking, the brother of the Galaxy Watch is suitable for daily use with your active and healthy lifestyle. The smartwatch automatically registers which sports or exercises you do, so you can focus on the real job at hand. For example, you can dive into the swimming pool, because its waterproof up to 5 ATM. In addition to tracking your workout performance, the smartwatch also analyses your sleeping pattern. This way, you always know if you're getting enough rest. What's more, you're always connected to your smartphone and make use of the newest version of Bixby Voice for fast access to your favorite apps.
Note: an adapter isn't included. Do you want to charge the watch via the socket? Use the adapter from your phone charger or order a separate adapter.

Actually, this was my first choice, but my husband persuaded me to choose a fitbit. I had ordered it from a competitor, but it got stuck when installing, we couldn't get it to work. Disappointment everywhere. So sent it back and ordered my first choice via coolblue.
That turned out not to be a bad choice. Delivered quickly, neatly packaged. The cat was also very happy with the box, which she actually just didn't fit in, but still had to and would sit in it. It gave a bit of a barbapapa effect.
The installation went smoothly, charging for a while while I read how to do it and amused myself about the spit-up of the cat. But in no time, the watch was paired with my phone.
To gain some skill in how it works and what you can set up. That's a lot and you can put extra apps on it via your phone. Everything I need is there or can be set up. He works great! Never had a smartwatch before, but quickly got used to it! I've used it quite a lot, from pedometer to skipping songs on spotify, and then it lasts about 2 days before it needs to be recharged. Only downside is that apparently my heart rate is quite high at times, so my husband is a bit concerned now. I just kept it that my heart beats faster with joy.

Thanks to CoolBlue's great service, I exchanged it for another smartwatch. It is not possible to get reliable data from your Samsung Smartwatch to Strava. An essential function for me to be able to compare my training data with my previous training sessions and those of others. The first option I used was a Strava app that you can download on the watch. It was immediately clear that the data was incompletely passed on to Strava. Often not even half of the training. The other option is via the (downloadable) Samsung Health app on your mobile. The training data will then come from the watch to the Samsung Health app on your mobile. But there too the problem arises that the data is then passed on to Strava completely mutilated. It only works when cycling. But when running and swimming it is a drama. Strava user platforms revealed that the problem has been around for a year and that neither Strava nor Samsung is willing to work together to solve it. This makes the Samsung Watch an unusable sports watch for me. It might be a good choice for people who don't use Strava.

Received the active yesterday. I searched for a while which watch I would buy but, given the price and what you get for it, I came up with the active. Rosé gold is also really rosé, the strap is a bit pink, I had to get used to it. The system works well and smoothly and the watch is easy to operate. It is a light watch and is really comfortable, the strap slides under it so that the strap is not in the way. The screen is beautifully clear. Last night I swam with it, even then the watch is easy to operate and there is a 'lock' on it so that it does not react to drops. The pedometer works well, it doesn't quite keep up with the stairs, I've walked more than it says.
Disadvantages so far: I can't find a Spotify app in the store, in the end it worked but that took a lot of time. You switch on the phone on Spotify, go to music on your watch and there you can choose which music source you want to play. Another disadvantage is that if you receive a call, you can refuse but cannot accept the call, this all goes through your phone. The speech function is not yet in Dutch, so you have to give commands in English.
All in all I am very happy with it so far! It is a beautiful watch with many good features.
