Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 Full Specification

SAMSUNG GALAXY WATCH ACTIVE 2 INTRODUCTION

The new member of the Samsung Galaxy Watch lineup is the Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2. This Galaxy Watch Active 2 is the successor of the previous generation. The Watch Active was released on September 2019. The Galaxy watch Active 2 has 1.4 inches Super AMOLED display. Corning Gorilla Glass DX+ protects this Watch Active 2—the Watch Always On Display features. The Active 2 has Tizen OS 5.5 and Exynos 9110 (10mm) chipset for power. The GPU of the Active 2 is Mali T-720. The Watch’s internal storage has 4GB storage with 768/1.5GB Ram. The Galaxy Watch has wifi, Bluetooth, Gps and many other features. The battery of the Active 2 has Li-on (Non -Removable) 340 Mah. 

DESIGN & DISPLAY

The Galaxy Watch Active 2 perfectly re-invent its predecessor, the 40mm model. The new model comes in a 44mm, more user-friendly version than Galaxy Watch’s bigger 46mm model. In the end, both alternatives are light. They start at just 26g for the lighter aluminium (without straps), while 30g is for the heavier, present but not heavy, during the course.

The base Watch Active 2 has an aluminium body similar to the original Active Watch. It is available in cloud black, silver, and pink gold shades. The less expensive model has an elasticized Fluoroelastomer band. The Watch’s back features a heart rate monitor that has eight photodiodes. Its predecessor, the Galaxy Watch Active 2, gave pretty accurate results.

The two buttons on the side are identical to the previous versions – a back button at the top, and a home button beneath, which opens up your applications. Double-clicking the former will bring Samsung’s intelligent assistant Bixby as a default setting; it is possible to alter it to do something else, like an option to access a frequently used favourite. The Active 2’s 360×360 resolution screen is slightly larger at 1.2 inches over the previous model for the smaller model of 40mm, which results in a smaller bezel this time – and the bigger 44mm model features a 1.4-inch screen with identical resolution.

The majority of Samsung’s first-party applications are designed for this small screen. Still, some third-party alternatives are just as outrageous as utterly unfavorable. Fortunately, it is; it’s good that the Galaxy Watch Active 2 has an upgraded digital dial that makes navigation through menus much more specific.

PERFORMANCE & SOFTWARE

Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2 has an Exynos 9110 dual-core chip, But at 1.15Ghz, It’s fast enough. The 768MB RAM of the smartwatch is sufficient for switching between applications. However, it’s increased to 1.5GB to accommodate the LTE version. Still, we’d like Samsung to add over 4GB of memory inside – particularly after your operating system, and the base applications have been loaded. You’re left with 1.5GB to play with. The Active two runs on Samsung’s One UI with the Tizen operating system. Moreover, the first Active has remained the same. The apps included are helpful. 

FITNESS FEATURES

The fitness features of the Watch Active 2’s features and apps are mostly the same: there are 39 workout-tracking options, including walking, running, cycling, and swimming. The exercises are generally healthy for cardio-related exercises. However, they struggle with those characterized by motion. However, we encountered no issues taking the Active 2 for a jog. It monitored our progress and then gently vibrated when it detected that we’d stopped moving and could have finished the exercise. The smartwatch is also connected to Bluetooth headphones, making recording Active 2’s periodic updates about our workout performance much more accessible.

Music listening was a hassle, particularly when connected to an iPhone, and adding music was a lengthy procedure. Synchronizing with a Spotify account is simple enough. Still, the constant alerts and notifications temporarily cut off audio, with multiple interruptions during a song. This is odd, mainly when an option to not interrupt the music seems like a prominent feature to be added to the workout mode. Galaxy Watch Active 2 is IP68-certified for dust and water resistance and can withstand being submerged for five meters underwater and becoming grimy.

It even has a “water lock’ feature that blocks the touchscreen and uses vibration to shake off excess water. The Watch also can record an ECG (electrocardiogram) that can measure the rhythm and electrical activity your heart is experiencing. It’s a feature we’ve observed in Apple Watch 4 and upwards.  While the hardware is in place, the feature will be ready to go live once Samsung gets approval before being used in every country.

BATTERY

If there’s anything that lives up to Samsung’s assertions regarding its Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2, it’s its battery endurance. In everyday use, The Galaxy Watch Active 2 lasted for two days. This battery life decreases when the number of activities you engage in, like playing music or running the GPS, drains the battery faster. It’s all dependent on how often you’re using it.

Fortunately, there’s a setting for saving batteries to prolong the life of your battery between charges. The capacity of the actual size 40mm version is 247mAh, which is slightly higher than the 230mAh of the predecessor. The 44mm’s 340mAh power could make it superior to its more minor brother (the only model we’ve tested), but it provides a bigger screen.
