Differences:
1. Digital bezel on the Active2 vs Physical bezel on Watch3 (makes a big difference for some)
2. Watch3 is Stainless steel vs Aluminum for the Active2
3. More RAM (1 gb vs 768mb) on Watch3
4. Active2 is more sports (look) oriented vs Watch3
Similarities:
1. Same OS version, Active2 was recently updated to the latest Tizen 5.5 bringing ECG
2. Same screen size
3. Same processor
Basic idea is to create your own certificate to sign ECG.tpk application and install it on your watch, then install the Samsung Health Monitor Mod app on your phone.
I have read lots of threads on XDA and can't find a complete tutorial about how to do it for Galaxy Watch 3 or Active 2. Hope this step-by-step tutorial will help. The whole process took me around 30 mins, it shouldn't be very hard. Make sure you back-up your watch first, just in case anything goes wrong and you need to restore data.
You will need an Android Phone, a Windows PC, and Galaxy Watch 3/Active 2 watch for this tutorial. And a wireless network.

Enjoy!

Now about battery life not as bad as Android Wear Fossil Gen 5 but not as good as Garmin either.
There is no such thing as a perfect watch and I have all 3 after purchasing this. Will probably get rid of the Fossil which hands down was the best looking watch specially with the 3 band silicon leather and metal combo! But this looks as good as the Fossil. S3 frontier had been my favorite watch for so long.
Don't compare it with the Active 2 or Active 1 biggest flaws in those watch is the whole screen bulges out (convex) and is exposed so gets scratched beat up cracked or destroyed pretty easily. Not recommend for people who job involves working with hands like a mechanic electrician plumber etc. You can get a whole body protector but it makes the watch look ugly, makes the screen harder to touch, traps moisture and sweat so basically not a good situation. You can't use a tempered glass screen protector since the display is curved and the protectors falls of in day 1.
If you don't have a smartwatch $230 for this latest Samsung unlocked LTE watch is incredible! But based on the comments above assess your needs carefully and then decide between this, Fossil Gen 5 and Garmin ( last two non LTE)
I am like "when will they learn" then I realize it's always different place, different cashier, etc..
I missed the mark down.. What was it?
