Getting the most out of your day is all about setting audacious goals and pushing yourself to achieve them. Whether it’s running a marathon, achieving your inner zen or winning style points at the office, the Galaxy Watch Active2 is designed to help you go further. Here are just a few of the ways this ingenious smartwatch helps you get more out of life.

Run Smarter

Thanks to its intuitive technology, the Galaxy Watch Active2 automatically detects seven popular workouts, from walking to cycling to swimming, and provides actionable insights on your progress so you can keep improving. This stylish device also tracks your heart rate, while a built-in running coach and advanced accelerometer provides real-time feedback on your pace, helping you push past your limits and meet your mileage goals. Enjoy your favourite Spotify playlist[1] while working out thanks to the new Galaxy Buds+ by Samsung. Available in black, white and blue, these new wireless earbuds can give up to 11 hours of playtime on a single charge, so you don’t have to worry about your battery. The Galaxy Buds+ include 2-way speakers delivering rich, studio-quality sound by AKG and an adaptive 3-mic system for crystal clear calls. The Buds+, the Galaxy Watch Active2 and the Galaxy Watch Active2 Under Armour Edition seamlessly connect to other compatible Samsung Galaxy, Android and iOS products so you never miss a beat.

Feel Better

Wellness is all about balance, and the Galaxy Watch Active2 is designed just as much to help you rest and rejuvenate as it is to help you crush your goals at the gym. By measuring four different sleep stages, this smartwatch lets you get the most out of your night’s sleep by providing analysis and insight into your sleep patterns. It can also help you work towards inner peace during the day with a selection of programmed breathing and meditation exercises, plus wellness cues throughout the day designed for maximum zen.

Work Efficiently 

The Galaxy Watch Active2 is a smart assistant that helps you stay connected throughout the day. In addition to text, email and calendar alerts, you can now stay on top of social media with the ability to scroll and react to posts directly from the smartwatch. With the LTE model, you can leave your phone at home to run your errands or head to the gym and rest assured that you’ll still receive your calls, emails and go hands free whenever you want using your Galaxy Buds+. The Galaxy Watch Active2 works as hard as you do, with a battery that can last for days on a single charge. 

Look Your Best

Available in 40mm and 44mm sizes with a wide range of straps to choose from, the Galaxy Watch Active2 features an enlarged display with a pure black screen and a nearly invisible border, for a slick, seamless look. The Galaxy Watch Active2 is also designed to look good with anything from your workout clothes to a tailored suit, thanks to its easily customizable face. Choose from a selection of classic analog watch faces, or snap a picture of your favourite tie or pocket square and let the Galaxy Watch Active2 come up with a complementary pattern to match. For extra style points, you can coordinate the watch face to your Buds+, which come in blue, black or white.

SAMSUNG GALAXY WATCH ACTIVE2 IS AVAILABLE AT SAMSUNG.CA, AT SAMSUNG EXPERIENCE STORES AND SELECT RETAILERS ACROSS CANADA IN AQUA BLACK, CLOUD SILVER, STAINLESS GOLD AND PINK GOLD, STARTING AT $369.99.
