Love my new Garmin Vivoactive
This is my third Garmin Vivoactive. I believe I have been wearing them for 10-15 years; the first ones battery wouldn't last as long as I led after several years of triathlons and marathons and the second one quit tracking several things after I dropped it and cracked the crystal. The new one has many new features I like including it is quite light, tracks naps (which us old guys take from time to time), and the face is much more attractive. I don't know if there are other options for the face on this one because I like just the way it came out of the box. It works great and though I have had it for 2-3 weeks, I have only charged it once.
Watch Failed after 1 Swim
Purchased this watch so I could Have something that was versatile and dependable in maritime environments. During my first training swim for an Iron Man, the watch clasp failed and fell off. I spent $300 on a high performance watch that was supposed to hold up under multiple different operating environments, and the watch failed the very first time I introduced It to a water environment. I will not be purchasing a Garmin product again - extremely disappointed with the lack of quality in this watch. It will not hold up under wet or maritime environments - Recommend looking elsewhere for products if you want a smart watch for triathlons, Spartan races, tough mudders, Iron Man’s, etc. This watch will not hold up to the simplest of stressors, even while brand new and fresh out of the box.
Accurate and comfortable
I was previously a Garmin owner and moved away to another brand. After several months of inaccurate tracking, it was time to go back to Garmin. The Vivoactive 6 came out and it was in my favorite color green. It was meant to be. Ive been wearing it most of the time and comparing the data between the two devices. It is definitely more accurate in tracking my steps and Im still learning how to track my workouts as the system has changed a bit in 8 years. I feel it gives me accurate data on the sleep, heart rate and other areas too.
More than worth the price.
I have had the Vivoactive 6 for 2 weeks upgrading from a FitBit Versa 2. My biggest issue is the size of the print, I thought I saw a place to make it bigger but can't relocate the place in settings. I like the battery 11 plus days compared to 2 maybe 3 on the FitBit. It was worth hassle to change exercise platforms. The only other issue I have is getting the steps to be equal in Connect and Google Fit. If you're on the fence and have a FitBit, just do it this watch has everything you're used to and more.
Beats my other famous brand watch
I have a famous brand watch that I like, but don't like the battery life. I decided to try the Garmin Vivoactive 6, and the battery life is incredible. I never let it go dead as I will charge it when I go in the hot tub, but I have used this for three days without charging, with plenty of battery life left. As far as the watch itself, I thought that it would not be up to par with my other watch, but I actually like it a lot more. I find the readings for pulse, respirations, and Pulse Ox are much more accurate on this. I also like many of the features better. It was nice having the phone on my other watch, but there was an additional monthly charge, and I rarely used it, and some say, the Vivoactive does not have an ECG, but I can tell you from working in the ER for more than 20 years, the watches are useless for this. Best watch ever.
Such a gem!
I've had my Garmin vivoactive 6 for about a six weeks and love it. I ditched the Apple watch and am so enamored with the Garmin. It takes a while to refigure where everything is but it works. The Apple features bonked out - I had to charge it daily. I found a simple watch face (for my ADHD brain) and it's fantastic. Records my lifting session, walks, sleep quality, heart rate, breaths. And, it's dim at night!
Good not great
I’ve had my watch for almost a month and while I enjoy some of the health and tracking features, garmin could do a better job on design and layout. For the cost, the watch is very limited in features. The screen itself does not extend to the edge of the watch like the images make it seem giving less space to navigate with your finger. It also gives a cheap appearance. The battery life has been great though.
Awesome features
I bought this the day it came out, and I’m so happy I did. I don’t think I’ll ever go back to Apple. This watch is amazing and tops Apple in every way. The sleep function, combined with the battery life, is top-tier!
Excelent first Garmin option
Beautiful and modern display, a lot of option of watch face. Excellent for every day use!
Great Watch and Great Fitness Tracker
Really light and comfortable; not too big on my small wrist. Crisp clear text/graphics with lots of goof faces including "analog" which I prefer. Lots of activities, good GPS. Tracks very close to my heartrate strap and Garmin GPS on my bike and it all ties together nicely in Garmin Connect. Seems to be good balance for recreational athlete.
