The Galaxy Watch Active 2 is a fitness-centric wearable but it doesn’t look sporty; it has a sleek, understated look that fares well in casual, formal, and gym outfits. It also flaunts a nicely proportioned profile — a round face and comfortable straps — that looks good on both small and large wrists. For exterior functionality, the Korean tech giant gave it side-mounted buttons plus a 1.2-inch screen that’s rich and legible in almost any lighting situation. Furthermore, it has the requisite dust and water resistance ratings, meeting IP68 and 5-ATM standards.

As the “Active” moniker suggests, health and fitness are the major focus of this device. It keeps you mindful of your health through different notifications, which include alerts on blood pressure, stress levels, sleep patterns, and heart rate as well as reminders to move. The smartwatch also has a solid foundation of built-in exercise tracking, which lets you track activities manually or automatically — including swimming, running, walking, and cycling. A granular tracking feature is also available which you can use for multiple stages in a typical gym routine.

Samsung smartwatches run on the company’s proprietary OS called Tizen, and it’s particularly slick in the Galaxy Watch Active 2. Connecting it to your mobile will enable notifications on messages, calls, social media, and other apps. Android users have the advantage of interacting with notifications like replying to text messages, watching YouTube, and scrolling through Twitter. You’ll also be able to store your own music on the device’s 4GB internal storage so you can bring your favorite tunes on the go.

With extensive fitness tracking and convenient connectivity options, there’s no doubt that the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 is the best to pair with Android phones. Don’t miss the chance to score this premium Samsung smartwatch for only $370 instead of the usual $500 on Amazon.

It also looks great when paired with non-sporty outfits, and if you want to further personalize its look, you can easily do so by swapping out the band and the watch face.

A true fitness-centric smart wearable, the Samsung Gear Sport offers support for various workouts and exercises. From walking and running to cycling and elliptical training, you have the option to manually start a session or let the watch detect your activity automatically. You’re also in store for personal coaching, daily progress monitoring, and GPS mapping, on top of the all-day tracking which covers heart rate, steps, calories, stairs climbed, and more. The watch is water-resistant for up to 50 meters and can even work in saltwater.

This Samsung smartwatch is compatible with both Android and iOS smartphones, but the experience is significantly better for Samsung Galaxy and other Android phones. Every notification is actionable and can be deleted directly from the watch. You can also send emojis, type on the keyboard, and even use your voice to respond to messages. iPhone users will have to put up with restrictions on notification interaction and other features.

Despite being over two years old already, the Samsung Gear Sport remains a solid pick for those who are new to the world of smart wearables. At a discounted price of $180, you’ll get to enjoy a striking balance between style and function. Order today on Amazon and walk away with $120 on savings.
