I am really happy with this watch & feel it is far more accurate on my steps. I like the added workout features, weekly overview & sleep tracking. I was disappointed about the Garmin Connect & having to pay for apps & additions as it was not stated in the details. Overall, happy.

I bought this 3 weeks ago in order to replace my fitbit which had aged out. It took some getting used to as the step counter is not as sensitive as the fitbit which counts your every move. I've had to work a lot harder to get my 10 thousand steps in a day! There's also something called a Body Battery which I have yet to figure out. There's a lot more to this watch than I thought.

I switched from an Apple Watch and couldn't be happier. The vibration is STRONG. I love the health outlook and how it adjusts the goals for the next day based on movement and sleep the day before. I love that I don't get over loaded. I love how light it is on my wrist. It's like it's not even there!

I purchased the Vivoactive 6 to replace a very old Vivoactive 4. For me, as a user of an older model, the 6 is a case of one step forward, two steps back. The main plus of the 6 is the crisp, vibrant color display. There are also a few interesting new features, like a compass in the hiking app. They're nice, and I can see they could be potentially useful, but I doubt I'll really need them. However, for me, the added features are outweighed by the drawbacks. First, there's the size. The watch face is smaller than the 4. This means all the added features, while colorful, are more difficult to use. It also means that if you have standard straps which fit most models, they won't be usable on the Vivoactive 6. But the biggest drawback for me is the wallet. I purchased the 6 instead of a larger, slightly cheaper competitor specifically because I didn't want to lose the wallet feature. However, while the wallet was always a simple swipe away on the Vivoactive 4, it's now buried deep in a submenu on the 6. It's much less convenient, and now you can't even use the wallet if you're running an app. It's not unusual for me to stop during a bike ride to pick up a post-ride snack. It was so convenient to pay using the wallet even though the tracker was running. Now, that's not possible. It's a huge downside and makes me question my continued loyalty to Garmin.

I expected better, especially for the crazy price. Half the time it can't find my wrist when I try to do a health snapshot. Then the sleep reading results contradict each other! How can one spot tell me in slept great and then another place tell me that I didn't - for the same night! Most of the sleep results have absolutely no meaning to me & I haven't had time to try and Google them to see if I can make sense of any of it. Why would the app not give a detailed explanation?!?! Scary and alarming heart rate warnings, not followed up with any information either! And the music?!! Impossible so far. It took NUMEROUS tries just to get Spotify to load onto the watch & then after that, the watch can't find my freaking headphones!!! So very disappointing. I read so many reviews and sadly decided to follow only the good ones, also thinking the music issues (of which I read many) wouldn't really matter to me - but they do. Why offer the ability to listen to your music, when it seems the majority of us can not?! You have made many versions of these watches, so there is just no excuse for everything not to work. Especially for these prices!!!!

I bought this watch about a month ago and I am so very happy. Have always been an iwatch person but after reading on this product I am happy to switch over to the Garmin fam. Although it doesn't have the perks of texting or answering phone calls not disappointed I'm ok with letting that go. Battery life is amazing!

I have always had an Apple Watch and switching to garmin was about longevity between charges and ability to get the nighttime stats. I have enjoyed this but I have a feeling I'm missing some of the available cool stuff that puts this watch over the top. Still learning.

I bought this to improve my sleeping hygiene and improve my fitness age. Went from 32.1 years in age to 31.5 in a month, steps are past 10k, sleeping more than 6 hours which is a huge improvement from 4-5 hours average. Just wow, love it and the reminders to take a break whether it's from elevated stress or too sedentary.

I have been wearing the watch for about a month now and really like it. I bought it as a replacement for my vivioactive 4. My only complaint is the watch face options. I like a minimalistic watch but most of the options that are minimalistic cost money. Like the only thing I want to see is time, date(day/month), and watch battery. The custom watch face option is cool but after I pick the things I want to see it places them in odd locations so spacing is weird.

My Fitbit that I had for a few years had to be charged nightly. Switched over to the Garmin vivoactive6 right before a conference and was impressed that I could go days without charging it I really wish they would make ankle bands since my hands are not always free at conferences
