Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2: I like the design stylish

Sharp and colorful screen
Touch edge responds quickly
Can call any phone number
Dial always-on screen too simple

I think the Active2 is a stylish watch. The clean lines and minimalist design really appeal to me. It may be swearing in church, but the watch reminds me of the round version of the Apple Watch. Although there is also a sporty variant, it is mainly a smartwatch and less a sports watch.

Touch edge works well, but I use little The screen responds quickly to my touch and is bright and colorful. Long before I could test the Active2, I heard about the touch edge that allows you to quickly navigate between apps. Indeed, when I swipe the screen, the watch quickly switches between apps. I even get feedback from the staggered apps with a little vibration. However, I notice that I hardly use the touch edge after a few days. Clicking on the apps works just as fast, if not faster. Of course this is a matter of taste. Someone else might really like this.

Answer apps like you used to text Answering whatsapps goes like you used to text. The first key represents a, b and c. I have to say, it took some getting used to, but after practicing a few times it actually went quite quickly. Still, I grab my phone if I want to send long messages. The messages I get are easy to read. What I do regret is that photos do not show.

Call whoever you want, but on speaker I also like that you can not only call numbers from your phone book, but any number. Not many other watches have this. However, the watch must be connected to Bluetooth to be able to call and you always call on the speaker. That's why I only call at home via the watch. The quality of the music player is fine and better than I expected. At least it's good enough for listening to music during my weekly session at the gym.

A new watch every day You can make the Active2 as personal as you want. There is a lot of choice in dials: from classic to modern. I think it's nonsense that you have to pay for some dials. So I don't either. What's nice is that you can set a photo as background. You can also create watch faces based on a pattern or color combination. What strikes me is that the dial of the always-on display changes to a simple version where you see the time. I regret this.

The small version fits well on my small wrist Now the format. I have narrow wrists, say 6 inches in circumference. The small 40 millimeter version looks nice on me, but I think many of you find it too small. Fortunately, the Active2 also comes in a larger 44 millimeter version. I've included photos of both sizes so you can compare them.

Good mix between smartwatch and sports watch

Wearing comfort and design
You can reply from your watch for both messages and phone calls
User friendly
Charge battery every 2 days with heavy use

Subtle, simple but powerful smartwatch with sports functions. Very light around the wrist and not too bulky. That was a requirement for my thinner wrists. There are many holes in the watch strap so you can easily find the right size.

The screen is very bright, colorful and easy to read. Good quick response time and easy to navigate.

I think one of the top functions of the watch is that you can answer messages and phone calls on the watch itself without your smartphone. (You must stay connected with your smartphone). You can type messages with a mini keyboard like the mobile phones used to have, via speech, predefined quick responses or choose an emoji (very subtle during meetings at work ;))! You can also answer phone calls via your watch (which is less subtle during meetings!). Is especially nice if your smartphone is often in a handbag or is not at hand.

The watch has built-in speakers where you can even listen to Spotify (quite loudly)! Speaking of music, you can also connect to a headset via the watch so that you don't even need your smartphone to exercise. You can even put numbers on the watch.

I use sleep tracking and the breathing exercises every day. The reminder to move every hour is subtle, motivating and very welcome at my sedentary job.

Together with S Health, there are achievable daily goals to set. What bothered me about my previous sports watch was that the daily goal was almost unachievable for me and that was not motivating. Now I get to it almost daily and I know it will build up over time. Goals should remain achievable depending on your situation.

I easily and quickly keep track of whether I have enough water every day and whether I am staying below my coffee limit (the working person, huh). They are small things but support your daily health quite well. All in all, I find these support functions very useful for people with a desk job. Every hour there will be a subtle notification that you need to get up, if you do, motivational feedback will come back.

For sports, you can add 4 shortcuts to your favorite sports on the sports widget and quickly record your training via there. Heart rate is nicely and accurately tracked. I have little experience with location determination because I mainly work out in the fitness. The watch also automatically registers walks.

There is also a lot of choice between dials and you can adjust the watch to your own liking. There are features like flashlight, sleep mode, do not disturb, and "find my phone". Timers, stopwatches and alarms, voice memo, weather, calendar, ...

In terms of battery, you should certainly charge it every 2 days with normal and intensive use. I usually do this when I get back from work because I want to be able to track my sleep at night. Charging usually takes 2 hours. It would have been nicer if the watch could last longer without charging, but it is doable given the functionality you get in return.

Tldr: Good choice if you are looking for a sports watch with many smartwatch functionalities that support your daily life.
