Best Smart Watch Brand in the market!!!

I can't believe how amazing my Garmin Vivo Active 6 has turned out to be. It led me to go out and purchase two more Garmin smartwatches, if that gives you any idea as to the love I have for Garmin and for their watches. They have transformed my workouts as I now utilize various Garmin Connect apps to sync my reps, sets, and exercise count. I recommend Garmin to anyone out there looking to improve their health and wellness because these watches will singlehandedly transform one's livelihood with a single purchase.

Great watch

I bought the vivoactive 6 to replace a Garmin vivosmart fitness band. It is working out great, I have just started to explore all of the features. Was a bit hesitant to get a rechargeable watch but the battery lasts a lot longer than I expected and it recharges faster than I thought it would.

I really like this I use it everyday for work, snowboarding, kayaking, hiking and tracking my sleep and cycle. The only issue that I have with it is the white band gets pretty dirty just from dirt and grime and if wearing it everyday the band is rubber so it can kind of irritate sensitive skin. Other than that though it's great!

The Garmin vívoactive 6 has a clean, balanced design that doesn't feel overly techy or too sporty. It looks great for everyday wear while still delivering all the fitness and training tracking I need. From daily activity to structured workouts, everything is there without feeling bulky or distracting. A solid choice if you want one watch that works just as well in daily life as it does in training.

Vito Active Upgrade

I purchased the Vivoactive 6 because I wanted to upgrade my current Garmin watch (Vivoactive 3). I love the brighter screen and longer battery life. I have found the Vivoactive 6 easy to learn and use. I love getting daily reports on my fitness, sleep and body energy. Also like the new color I purchased!

Different from Vivio 4

I bought this about a month ago and there are some changes that are good and some that are not from my previous vivio active 4 model. I mostly like the battery life, this one only needs to be changed about 1-2 times a week. The way to start a walk has more button pushing and also to set an alarm is more challenging. It is nice photos can be placed as a background. There are more activities to chose from than my old vivio and this watch is much lighter. So far those are the items I have used.

Regretting my disappointment

Purchased on line to upgrade my vivoactive 3 music and was initially disappointed. 1st issue was was low light screen auto dimming. My vision is not great without readers and could not see much in low light without first finding my glasses or a light source to brighten the display. Somehow navigating from apps to widgets and systems settings seemed less intuitive than the vivo 3 but honestly I didn't give it much of a chance. I decided that I wanted a bigger screen as well so have spent too much time sifting through watch reviews and now wish I'd kept the vivo 6. Right tech at a good price.

An idea watch

This watch has been great. I was looking for a running watch that had both an AMOLED screen and that I could wear in a variety of situations and still feel good about, and the Vivoactive has checked all the boxes so far. It has been a great running, fitness, and recovery tracker while being less bulky and nicer looking when at work. Would recommend,

Great Upgrade!

I had a Vivo Active 3 for the past 5 years and upgraded when the watch began to loose full charge by the end of the day. The Vivo Active 6 has been an amazing upgrade with new features and even more accurate health stats. Everything I loved about Garmin watches is even better on the 6 and would highly recommend you update if it's been a few years. Well worth the value!

New Smart Watch

I've been using FitBit for almost 15 years, but recently I was disappointed with their functions. So I began to research Garmin, but many of the deigns were too masculine and seemed complicated. Then the Vivoactive popped up and I decided to purchase it. It did not disappoint and I'm looking forward to trying more features.
