Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 40mm Rose Gold with Phantom Violet Band SM-R830NADAXSA review

Looks great. MyStyle is fun. Fixed heart rate monitoring issues. Good battery life. A dang-near perfect smartwatch.

The watch is a keeper

It looks good on the wrist and the functions have improved a lot from its predecessor

Hands on: Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2

With Wear OS still lacking, the Galaxy Watch Active 2 has serious potential to be the best smartwatch for Android users. The Watch Active 2 comes in both LTE and Bluetooth options and can be pre-ordered now. The Bluetooth model starts at £269/$279 for the 40mm model and £289/$299 for the 44mm.
