Thank you for a great video!! Your explanations were perfect and very informative! One of the best videos for this watch! I am so so so excited to get this watch for Christmas!! Thanks again!
Not in every way! Had a lot issues with GPS and Heartrate measure with the Active 2 wich i never had with the Apple watch 4. Some things are better and some are simply not. I don't buy Apple Products anymore but i have to say, that the Apple Watch 4 is a very solid and good functioning Watch. What really bothers me is that there are not few good Apps on Tizen tough
STA RS yeah apple watch is 9/10 and active 2 8/10. but i dont mind about app on active 2 or gps issue because it a smartwatch i use it for workout and listening to songs and time to see notifications that all and i prefer active 2 not of i hate apple but it worth what i need so don’t expect to high. ( not apple or samsung fanboy just want to share what I thought )
@@stars7931 there were some bugs at release, but after a few updates it seems to be performing just as well and with a more accurate gps than the Apple Watch, yet I agree the Apple watch is still really good but it still bothers me how limited it is
I've just purchased this watch! Very impressed! For anyone thinking about which size to get, I'm a male with quite skinny wrists and I got the 44mm which I'm very pleased with! The 40mm would have been far too small
Agreed. I purchased the 40mm first and returned it for the 44mm. 40mm DEF for female wrists or men who like small minimal look. It was too small for my eyes as well. Way more easier to see the bigger one! 👍
Bro I'm don't know why I'm not able to play Spotify songs on my watch, I'm just able to use it as a remote, I can only control the sound and songs which Plays in my phone, can u plz give me a solution ....????🙏❤️
This video is perfect, thank you! I know I'm a little late but I got this for a great deal, and after a lot of research, the active 2 style and features fit my life and needs and style the best. I'm so happy for this video that focuses on features and shows us and makes is super simple. Very grateful for this video! 🙏 Edit: I'm a preschool and nursery school teacher, and the quick "theater" option is perfect for nap time. I don't like to have my phone out all day but now I'll never miss important calls or texts or schedule alerts. I love this I'm so excited. And the interchangeable bands are so much fun!
Hello. I bought watch active 2 last month and cannot see the screen capture option in advanced settings, neither can I capture using home and swipe right. Can you please help?
The screenshots are also appear on the connected phone's gallery. Just bought this watch a few days ago, in used condition, 44mm, with a tiny scratch, for $48. I'm really happy with it. I've also found an active 1 in perfect condition, for $26.
I thought I was good with technology. Just found out that I am not. I bought the watch yesterday and have no idea what to do with it. I need a basic class.
@@Me-qw1yp Thank you for asking, after about a month of completely forgetting to wear it and wearing the regular wrist watches, I have barely improved. I just love talking on it like a James Bond guy. Really inconvenient in public while arguing and yelling into your wrist.
My husband just bought me one for my weightloss journey! Love samsung products just as much as apple. Right now I'm rocking the note 10 plus. An amazing phone
@@aurorablindpilot it is a really good watch. Very easy to operate . I have the Bluetooth version. It is very smooth no glitches and the battery last about 5 days without a charge. It is very comfortable too.
I love this watch, one of the most accurate heart sensors on the market. Puts fitbit to shame. The sleep tracker is very accurate, i had a horrible night and it reconized i only got 2 hours of sleep
So I use this watch (40mm version) with an iPhone 5 and I cannot find the ECG feature, I cannot find some apps in the galaxy store such as google maps and omnitrix. Why could this be happening?
Hi! With regards to the goodnight mode, mine doesn't show me the settings buttonn on it to select the times of goodnight mode on. I only have the help option. Can you help me with this please?
Nice video! You explained a lot of cool features like the 2-finger triple tap and theatre mode that I hadn't seen in the other videos I watched. Thanks for the content!
Just got mine today took awhile to set up for me, but it works good I left my phone at home watch worked great got calls but wouldn't recommen texting off the watch
Hi can you post a video on how to connect the watch to your car bluetooth please. Im having hard time doing mines and my watch is not showing up on the blue tooth list on my car
hi. can anyone tell me how to reconfigure the back button? I dont want the samsung pay to open when i hold this button and wanteed to change the settings to some other shortcut more useful to me
I am still trying to decide between this and the Fossil watch gen 5. I really like the Wear OS that is on the Fossil watch but i like Galaxy's watcb design
I had a Fossil and it stopped charging. Opened it up and couldn’t even locate a battery. Heard other people had the same problem. Dumped it and got the Active2. I love it! I got so much more from the galaxy watch then from the Fossil.... and for the same price!
Voice assistant isn't bixby....voice assistant tells the operator what each function does as you're in the application.....Bixby responds to your voice commands..when I received my GW2 it had voice assistant activated...it inhibited my screen touch ability...it took 8 steps on my phone to turn it off...unfortunately it is not an on/off application you can do from your screen on the phone...
I would love to learn more about my Samsung active watch too. I saw that you used custom on your app to take a picture of something and then add it as a watch face, my app does not have that custom. Is there a reason why?
So I've worn the Watch 2 for couple months now and I tried the waterproof mode💧🚫 ..don't use it in the shower...I tried that and music sorta stopped working...you can have outside the shower sitting on the sink with the steam around it...I keep waterproof mode on most of the day and doesn't drain the battery much
Does anyone know if the galaxy active 2 will charge on the samsung galaxay watch charger? I have upgraded from the galaxy watch with the rotating bezel to the active 2 and would be nice to use my old charger if possible.
At 12 am of oct 2nd the price reduced to 9900 i got offer for ma card also so i got it around 8700rs after my order they increased it to 10990 now after card offers its available at 9800rs 😌
Press and hold down your "back" button on the watch. Also the Samsung pay app on the watch, the icon is blue and only says the word "pay" which is the Samsung pay app on the watch.
Great How-To Video. I do not have the 'Turn on Daily' of the Goodnight mode on my Active 2 . I have tried all updates but it is not there. Any idea on how to activate the 'turn on daily--goodnight mode? Merci.
Does it give u "unknown error please try again?" I had the same issue. I downloaded all the Galaxy watch plug ins from the Google play store and thenmake sure they're enabled. To set my own background I go to my gallery first then share the image to my watch
@@egui11191 Actually it didn't give me any error. It took me to gallery but there was no option available to share it to my watch. I tried clicking on it but nothing. I tried to press & hold onto my pic but still I didn't get any option there to. I'll try to download plugins and see.
Thank you for a great video!! Your explanations were perfect and very informative! One of the best videos for this watch! I am so so so excited to get this watch for Christmas!! Thanks again!

Thanks for letting me know guys
THANK YOU! Almost no one talks about what the watch can do and why its cool, its always about its physical build and the sensors. Good video
What I love from Active 2 is able to export GPX format to showing speedometer, altitude, distance, for editing purpose.
How do you do that?
This watch is just epic
