Battery lasts about 3 days for me and I wear it over night. Toss it on the charger when I'm showering every couple says and it's good for another couple days. But full to 0 is about 3 days.

I really like mine. Use it for pretty much everything you use one of these for. Notifications, exercising, etc.

Nothing compares to Apple watches but if you prefer android phones, this is a pretty good watch.

This is a fantastic watch if you just want notifications. Very solid connection and looks great and simple. I'm still using the Active 1, and it's easy to throw a protector on it and use it for work. Very durable, not a lot of places where dirt can wreck it.

Not a fan of the apps or Bixby, but I've had trouble with Wear OS watches in the past, so Samsung it is. Wear OS watches are not reliable, in hardware or software.

You could have just bought a new one and sent them back the broken one since they gave you the run around. You could have also used return protect on your credit card or filed a dispute. Many options

Do you happen to have a link to the website to do this? Google doesnt seem to be my friend in this case. Are the HR and ecg functions only innately functioning on samsung phones? The description seems to indicate that the functions working all android phones. Thanks in advance.

I liked the active2. I ended up with the galaxy 3 and returned because of an other deal, but almost perfered the active2. The samsung gps program will do maps and ROUTING offline with no interent connection, which is nice.

My galaxy 3 is the cell version so I can call 911 if i'm in truble without paying for cell. It's dial is nice. It's bulkier than the active2 thought, and the battery drains faster. The active2 silicone band is a miricale. can sleep with it and not know it's there.

Just said. I like the comfort and resiliance of active2 silicone band (galaxy 3 has leather). active 2 battery lasts a notch longer. It's sleeker and smaller and more zen than galaxy 3, which is bulky like many mens watches. Cost signifcantly less, which is important because watch tech going so fast right now, no reason to pay top dollar.

I have had mines refurb from Amazon for over a year and it is great. It tracks pulse, steps, and tracks the sleep too. I like Samsung Health portion of it. When it was newer in 2019 was still relativity inexpensive for what it has. I paid $180 for my refurbs in Jan 20'.

Make sure you unpack everything in the box...if I recall correctly, it's in the box, but inside one of the hollow spacer pieces inside the box.

Just to confirm, this does not have blood pressure or ECG capabilities - right?

Thanks...I followed the video. I had to use the long method, but I followed the directions and had to replay certain parts over and over again because the video quality sucks, but I was able to install ECG and BP and have gotten both of them to work. I wish there were a way to get the o2 sensor to work, but I am happy with the results I have gotten so far.

I had to do long method as well. Glad you were able to get it. Make sure to calibrate correctly. If done right it's somewhat accurate

Did anyone else who bought this deal from Costco get their watch without a "bonus charging dock?"

I ordered mine on 2/14 with an expected ship date of 2/17, that got delayed and didn't get here until today, 2/18. In the package was just the Active 2 but no extra charging dock.
Quick update, not that I think anyone cares, lol.

Costco said they couldn't send me just a charging dock so they said they'd send out a complete set and for me to return the watch that I received. Yesterday, I received the new set but lo and behold, there was only the watch in this new shipment.

Am I simply not understanding this deal? When I read "bonus charging dock" it is my understanding that I'll receive not just the charging dock that comes in the box with the watch, but an extra, 2nd charging dock on the side.

Your understanding is correct. I bought one for my wife from Costco online and it came with two chargers.

Bixby is completely useless on this. Google Assistant worked better. Aside from longer battery life, everything else was better on my fossil sport. I also was able to get the ecg and blood pressure on this even though i got it paired with an lg v60.
So you still think its better than a wear OS watch? Say the new Ticwatch Pro 3 GPS or even the Ticwatch Pro LTE? I also have a V60 & I'm weighing this watch VS wear OS. Thanks Ron.

I'll still take it over the fossil sport. I've never seen a review on a ticwatch so i can't comment on it. I can only compare it to the fossil sport. I'm not so sure I'd take it over the carlyle though.
