The new Samsung Galaxy Watch Active2 Under Armour Edition is designed to help runners improve their form and fitness. It has unique features to provide an enhanced running experience. The combination of Cadence-based real-time coaching, Premium access to MapMyRun, the largest fitness community in the world, and premium features creates an ecosystem that provides runners with accurate data and intuitive coaching, as well as a better exercise experience.
Under Armour’s Chief Digital Officer, Paul Fipps said, “Every product that we create is designed to improve the lives of athletes. We believe this perfectly aligns to Samsung’s goal to build products that enhance people’s daily lives, as well as a future.” We are thrilled to work with Samsung to further push the boundaries of technology and performance. Together, we will pave the way for future immersive workouts. This new Galaxy Watch Active2 under Armour Edition will improve runners’ running technique and performance. It is a combination of our UA HOVR-connected footwear, and the MapMyRun app.
