Ringke Air Sports + Bezel Styling Combo Case Designed for Galaxy Watch Active 2 44mm - 20-Black

Installation was little challenging, by little I mean my little nephew couldn't do it quickly. I really like it and it looks good too. The side of the watch is beveled, so it'll protect the screen from most impacts. I mean if an impact that will scratch/crack the screen isn't going to be stopped by the bevel, a thin layer of plastic, which dulls the screen isn't going to stop it. I got the silver with no numbers (so I don't have to be careful when I'm gluing the metal part, which isn't that hard by the way, just do it in a very well lit room.

I have been searching for this type of face covering for my watch for a while. It's perfect. It only covers the top giving it that silver face look and fits over the top of my screen protector. I was a little concerned when I first peeled off the protective strips because I believe it also pulled off the inside adhesive that attaches to the watch. It still attaches and stays put, it hasn't come off once or even looked like it was going to. The fit even without the adhesive is snug enough to keep it in place. And I can still take it off to clean my watch if needed and it goes back on perfect.

I'll preface the review by saying I modified the case immediately by cutting off the cover (using cuticle scissors) for the Back button so I could use the ECG feature on the Active 2 (see final two pics.) It's not the most elegant solution since it recesses the Back button, but will work well enough until a new case design comes out that works well with the feature. Otherwise, without this mod you wouldn't be able to use the ECG feature...if that's not a feature you care about then the case as it comes is perfect.On to the case. Feels good in hand and on my wrist. Following the installation instructions I was concerned I would break the case, but it was a non-issue. It fit perfectly on the Galaxy Watch Active 2 body, and doesn't impede the heart rate monitor, wireless charger, or wrist bands. No issue with using the digital bezel either.The material seems durable enough that I won't be concerned about bumping or even dropping my watch (I mean, not off a cliff but for daily use I should be gtg.) Seems to mate well with the available screen protector by Spigen.I paid a little more for the additional case bezel version of the case, but decided not to use it at this time. It seems like it would mate well enough with the case, but as mentioned in the description and other buyers it seems like a one-time application kind of deal. I did mock it up (see pics) with both a more traditional watch face (looks pretty sleek), but because I use more "techy" watches faces (Division ones are my current fave) I think the plain black case is sufficient.One more note about the optional case bezel...if applied it would probably provide a slightly raised case surface so that the glass face would be a little more protected, but again I'm not concerned since I installed a separate screen protector.

So it's shiny enough to almost give the illusion that you are using a silver watch. The bezel sticks on top of the rubber case, so it actually makes the face of your watch look much bigger. It's thin enough that it doesn't make your watch too bulky, but it's thick enough that it doesn't feel like plastic or really cheap, feels like pretty strong aluminum. You do have to be careful the adhesive on the back once you peel the sticker off, is sort of 1 time go, so just line it up perfectly on the face of your watch right side up, and place it down gently, then lightly press down on the top and bottom, then left and right. It's a very good purchase and looks good to me.The only downside about it for me, is the buttons on the side, are very stiff once inside the case, good because you don't accidentally hit them, but feels weird, when you try to push down on one and you feel the resistance.

The media could not be loaded. Love this cover and bezel. Seller was awesome. Easy to apply. If u have a galaxy active 2, you must buy this cover. Also please excuse all the drywall dust. Bought this to protect my watch in a construction site and its held up pretty good.

It's fine for what it is. It protected the watch from dents and dings and it looked fine. The bezel worked for scrolling.Problem is, it also collected a lot of dirt and grime and the clear casing showed it all to me. It's just enough of a pain to remove and clean that I never ended up putting it back on.Also, it covers up the EKG sensor so that feature is basically disabled with the cover on.If none of that bothers you, 10/10 recommend! It bothered me enough that I'm not using it anymore.

I'm not all to sure why so many reviews give negative scores when they are "surprised" by what they just purchased. It is 2 piece set that incorporates the air sports case and a bezel stuck on with tape. Should you have known this before buying? of course .. its literally in their product pictures and description. The Air sport case adds a bit of protection for the sides of the watch and doesn't add that much bulk. Wireless charging still functions as normal with both my OEM charger and my aftermarket charging dock. Bezel was easy to install and mates well with the air sport case. No issues observed when using the touch bezel of the watch, functions as normal.As others have noted, be aware that this is not a case that you take on and off. Once the bezel is installed you cannot remove it without damaging/removing the double sided tape. I wouldn't call this a design flaw, but rather a design comprise. Using tape helps to keep the overall design profile lower and close to the watch face. Adding more material/height to make a removeable bezel just does not sound aesthetically pleasing in my mind.As always, a bit a research and/or simply reading the product description goes a long way to keep expectations realistic.
