Wow! Come on people lets get Lis to the 750,000! She does a very honest review products and never tells you what to buy! That's what we need! Thank you Lisa for looking out for us!
Spot on review! I'm an Android user who was jealous of the Apple Watch but didn't want to switch to an iPhone. For me, this watch is the answer. And yes, it was the speaker (and updated sensors) that made me upgrade from the gen 1 GWA.
@@teddydavid2816 I'm very practical. Before, I had a citizen ecodrive, but now I'm on my 2nd Casio pathfinder. The battery life in most smartwatches are kind of sad and most of the features, (again to me) are not practical for my day to day. Maybe when I can get a week's worth of use I will be impressed.
@@soiledhalo2296 that's interesting Richard because to me I get so much use out of my gear s3 frontier that I've had for 3 years,, I guess now, I couldn't even come up with a plot to where I would wear an antiquated rist weight again. I've always been into watches and have a decent collection too, even a Rolex, but I haven't worn one since the s3 touched my wrist, not even once.. It's never run out of batteries on me either and now they have the ones where you can charge them on the back of your phone too which I haven't upgraded to yet but will someday when I upgrade my phone(still have the note 8)but battery life to me has been a non issue, especially compared to all the benefits. Taking it off once a day while showering or whatever and letting it charge up(well to just below 100 because I heard it's bad for battery life to charge to 100) again(all the way up since I hate having a low battery and it's rare that it ever goes below 50%), you're good to go again. Not to mention if the battery gets low you can put it on power saving(which I've rarely had to do) and then it just does basic functions which are still more than an old wrist sun dial can do and still will last for a long time. the s3 has been a tank as well, been in pools, hot tubs ,showers, work out with it all the time, banged on door frames and such countless times and still looks great. I can't even believe how good it's been. It paid for itself on the first day and every day after that it's been a profit the thing is crazy useful and just fun... Anyway I lol at people in my head when i see them wearing old watches like when I see people smoking cigarettes or vaping, I just shake my head to myself in dismay.. anyways it's all good, to each their own I guess right. oh and these watches are so relatively cheap, I got mine for around 200ish??, on Ebay I guess all those years ago too I can't even remember because to me its value is so far greater than whatever I paid for it it's like I got it for free. dude I can't fathom wearing a useless wrist shackle again, yea I'd say your impractical fashion jewelry is dead to me.. but sorry for the horrible sentence structures and run on sentences and such this book I just wrote looks crazy lol but enjoy your practical watch my man..
One of the most unbiased and lucid tech reviewer on RUclips. (Unlike what can be said about many other tech reviewers here) Kudos & Keep up the Awesome work Lisa!
I love your review videos!! You're one of the only tech reviewers that gets right to the point and includes everything I could ever ask about. Great personality, keep up the good work!
hands down you've convinced me more times than I can count to buy something that I've been on the edge. I love your reviews you're doing amazing work keep up the good work.
Been with you since 2010 Liz. So great to see you again. I came back to this watch after several others. I like the sleek thin design. Great review. Thanks. Had to get the 44mm. P.S. I also have a Samsung phone, love this watch. I'm 69 yrs old but still a tech gadget junkie, thanks again.
I think you hit the nail on the head! More people like their Apple Watch more then their iPhone. That's the same situation I was in when I switched to my fold. But with the stainless steel active 2 it's made me not look back!
Thanks for the excellent review. I never comment on RUclips , but I had to this time. It's so nice to havea real person providing real information! Keep up the great work.
Thank you I was hoping you would do a review on this watch. I purchased it already and I am happy with it and the feature's the Frontier was a killer on my size 5 -1/2 wrist. You are awesome Lisa! Great review!
The only smartwatch I've ever owned was an old Pebble Time, and that feels like forever ago. I think the Active 2 40mm in Cloud Silver will be my next! Thank you for always putting out great reviews and I'm ecstatic to see you getting so close to 750k - I've been watching you for years!
Love this review. Very informative. I recently received my watch as a mother's day 🎁. I'm not very techy, your video helps me a lot. Keep up the good work!
Thanks a bunch for doing this video! I just switched from iPhone to Samsung and need a replacement for my Apple Watch... and as you said, I do love the watch! Lol. I got the Note 10+ and so far LOVE it! More than likely getting this Active 2. Thanks again.
Great review as always, Lisa! 😍 Just bought the first generation here in Germany for only 110 bucks new from a private person, which is a common price tag already. I love the Watch Active!
Thanks for the great review. Definitely a watch to consider. Thank you also for discussing and showing watch band options because it is nice know it is a standard size is great and to be able to switch out. I passed up other watches because they use non-standard watch bands.
4:43 The Apple Watch Series 5 and the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 showed the same heart rate but the amount of calories burned is not consistent on both devices showing a +/- 5 calorie difference which is too way off.
@@itaysalzer5169 I actually want to sell mine. I don't find it particularly useful in reality. It's great to get good workout stats or set basic goals, take phone calls, glance at notifications.. otherwise I just find it to be a small hassle that I don't need. Bixby is really not good although I don't use it much bc it's too slow to start. I liked being able to see my steps and heart rate, but after a few months of it, I stopped looking at all. Let me know if you have any questions.
I bought this one. Before i had the fitbit versa. What a difference! I have a small wrist, but the 44mm is perfect for me. Calling and checking notifications really goes well on this smartwatch. The training functions are also nice and easy to use. I'm a great fan!
My hubby just bought me one and I love it but have an OLD S4 that I can’t seem to get the app needed to download to my watch.i had hoped this old cell would work for now, until I get a new updated cell. Watching your video is so helpful,thank you
Maybe because you mostly watch videos from American youtubers who are iSheeps for the most part... Watch videos from youtubers in other countries and you'll see lots of reviews for this watch...
I currently have the previous model as well as the Frontier one. This seems like it has good featurez. I'd like the speaker most{ my Frontier} as I could talk on it.
Wow, you just mentioned something that I never knew I could do with these Samsung watches. The part about connecting the watch to a 2.4gz network to receive notifications if bluetooth is too far away. I'm going to try that tonight. Silly me, I have owned multiple Samsung watches and never took advantage of that feature. I thought that the wifi option was on there to use the watch as a browser.

Hello, Thnak you for your review. The watch face shown at 1:21m comes pre-instaled? Thank you
I have a small wrist and the 40mm is tiny. 44mm may be ok. I have the 46mm which looks huge in videos but works on my wrist. I have a small wrist 17cm.
All the reviews I've seen so far fail to mention that you don't get quite all the features with non-Samsung smartphones - the noticeable problem is Samsung Pay, which you can't install on any non-Samsung phone and thus can't use the Active to pay with.
@@deadname6203 how do you install Samsung Pay on your phone, then? For me, the Play Store states it's incompatible with my device (Xiaomi Mi 9T). Google Pay works perfectly fine, though.
I totally agree with you. I left iPhone last summer, and went back to android. However, I still miss the Apple Watch, and it was the biggest thing to consider when making the switch.
Great informative review. I have to say your way of communicating information is awesome. I have subscribed and cannot wait to see more reviews from you.
Got mine 2 weeks ago (lte version though yet to use it with lte) and it's excellent! 1 hour gym/swim tracking with Bluetooth Spotify streaming and sleep tracking at night and I comfortably get 48 hours on it.
Thank you so much for this review! I have the older Samsung Galaxy Watch Active, and I agree the $80 is worth it for a speaker. You've just convinced me to upgrade. lol
Girl power!! I've never seen a review so thorough on this watch! I was hands down sold on the Samsung smart watch, because of your review, you're making me take a second look at this one now..🤔 #NewSubbie
"I actually like my Apple Watch more than my iPhone" - that's a great point. My brother loves his Apple Watch and utterly despises his iPhone (having come from an Android ecosystem - it's a company phone for him). I think something like this watch would be a clincher if the company gives him the chance to use an Android again.
I had the rose gold with the leather band, but the band didn't last very long before it was showing wear & I had to replace it with the sport strap. The watch itself was great, I got it in 2021 & loved it but last month when I use the water lock for the first time to go snorkeling something got messed up, after that I could literally watch the battery drain, a full charge would last MAYBE 10 hours, if I was lucky... I ended up upgrading to the 4 but I REALLY miss the body style of the 2 & the way the apps were laid out. The 4 is nice, don't get me wrong, but it seems like they're trying to get more like the Apple watch.
thank u for the pointer about ringke snap on bezel covers. im not a fan on the matte aluminum look. i looked up that company and might just get an aluminum now and add the nicer bezel on top. great vid.
Got the watch as a present but I have a OnePlus 7 Pro phone which is basically Google driven and it's very limited in what it can do unless you have a Samsung account or phone. Now considering looking for a Google based smart watch. Very cool watch though.
Great review Lisa. I have the Gear S3. Do you think this would be an upgrade over the S3 Frontier or it's more of a lateral move? I wasn't impressed by the fitness functions of S3 but overall I like the watch.
Do you know how to install applications while not having the galaxi store not being a samsung phone? I need help because it will arrive tomorrow and I don't know what to expect.
This year I went with Garmin Vivoactive 4 while it was on sale. Problems with Samsung watch or another typical Android watch is two folds. 1) The battery only lasted you two days or less 2) The display shut off when you not looking at it. I wanted something that will stay on like a regular watch. Must be my phobia kicking in because when I had Samsung S3 Frontier I kept looking at it just to keep it on, lol. Vivoactive 4 is a very active oriented watch. The downside for me is the text message can be hit or miss. And being very nick pick here but I wish the activity mode would be automatic instead of having to activate it first. Otherwise having two Samsung watches, I have no need for all their apps beyond text message, text and calls notification, sleep tracking. Other apps to me are just gimmicked. Rather with Viviactive, I get way more active tracking. Finally, Samsung watch apps on the phone suck! Samsung Health sucks bad! I hope many would take a second to download and play around with Samsung watch apps on the phone to see if it is intuitive to their liking. For me, it was not. Garmin implement that way better! Oh and with Vivoactive there NFC for payment and Spotify support as well.
I have exactly ZERO interest in smart watches. Personally, I think they're another unnecessary too-small-to-be-useful thing to charge all the time when a regular watch and a phone would work just as well. I am solely here to support Lisa and her channel! lol. Love you, Lisa! Kickass review, as always!
In my watch, it is written as your watch can automatically track your sleep. No sleep timings are written there. What to do? How to get ? Any kind of help would be appreciated.

I ended up upgrading to the 4 but I REALLY miss the body style of the 2 & the way the apps were laid out. The 4 is nice, don't get me wrong, but it seems like they're trying to get more like the Apple watch.
But does it have fall detection for older adults?
100% agree about part get this than Wear OS. Unfortunately, Google missed their chance and wasted all potencial with Wear OS...
all what i needed to know thank you very much
I have a seriously question. This is my first watch
I just bought one right now for Mother’s Day you have a really good review can you change the language setting ?
Yes you can change language settings for your watch. Hopefully you were able to figure it out by now.
I haven't seen any reviews that mention the fall detection feature . Is it active? Does it really work and how?
The Gear S3 has a speaker, were you just talking about the Galaxy Watch line as far as 'finally has a speaker'?
Yes, I meant the Active 1, which didn't have a speaker, and for years, many Android Wear watches lacked speakers.

Great review Lisa. I have the Gear S3. Do you think this would be an upgrade over the S3 Frontier or it's more of a lateral move? I wasn't impressed by the fitness functions of S3 but overall I like the watch.
Fitness functions have improved markedly. It's also a lot smaller and lighter (helpful only if you don't like big watches).
Do you know how to install applications while not having the galaxi store not being a samsung phone? I need help because it will arrive tomorrow and I don't know what to expect.

Problems with Samsung watch or another typical Android watch is two folds. 1) The battery only lasted you two days or less 2) The display shut off when you not looking at it. I wanted something that will stay on like a regular watch. Must be my phobia kicking in because when I had Samsung S3 Frontier I kept looking at it just to keep it on, lol.
Vivoactive 4 is a very active oriented watch. The downside for me is the text message can be hit or miss. And being very nick pick here but I wish the activity mode would be automatic instead of having to activate it first.
Otherwise having two Samsung watches, I have no need for all their apps beyond text message, text and calls notification, sleep tracking. Other apps to me are just gimmicked. Rather with Viviactive, I get way more active tracking. Finally, Samsung watch apps on the phone suck! Samsung Health sucks bad!
I hope many would take a second to download and play around with Samsung watch apps on the phone to see if it is intuitive to their liking. For me, it was not. Garmin implement that way better!
Oh and with Vivoactive there NFC for payment and Spotify support as well.
I have exactly ZERO interest in smart watches. Personally, I think they're another unnecessary too-small-to-be-useful thing to charge all the time when a regular watch and a phone would work just as well. I am solely here to support Lisa and her channel! lol. Love you, Lisa! Kickass review, as always!
This was a very good review. Thanks!!
In my watch, it is written as your watch can automatically track your sleep.
No sleep timings are written there.
What to do? How to get ?
Any kind of help would be appreciated.
