Picked up a watch yesterday from a retailer in Oman and the update hasnt arrived yet. This looks pretty similar to the good old Gear S3 and looks almost like an active 2 with a rotating bezel around. Its comes with just a leather strap and hence not sure if this can be used that much for workout tracking.

    Is the Vo2 available to "Active 2" ?

          for what monitoring blood oxygen?
          Even the owner doesnt know medical procedure if his/her blood oxygen is under the level of normal.

            I don't think anyone bought it already
