The Galaxy Watch Active's lightweight and simple design make it better for working out and wearing to bed than previous models. It packs in health and fitness features at a lower price than its competitors and works on both Android and iOS
It's missing the rotating bezel we loved on previous Samsung watches and comes in only one size with no LTE option. The blood-pressure monitoring is half baked at best. Samsung's Health app doesn't make it easy to locate all your data
The Galaxy Watch Active is a great smartwatch and fitness tracker at a reasonable price, but don't count on actual blood-pressure monitoring any time soon...

You can store music on the watch to listen to when running, or sync your Spotify playlists, Built-in heart rate monitor is simple to use and accurate, It's waterproof and can be used to track swimming, The watch gives you breathing exercises that can help
Lacks some of the most popular apps, such as Google Maps and WhatsApp, To use the Samsung Pay feature you'll need a Sasmung smartphone
Love the idea of a smart watch loaded with fitness features but don't want to fork out nearly £300? The Samsung Galaxy Watch Active could be the ideal choice. It's smaller and has a battery that doesn't quite last as long than its bigger brother, the Sams...
