Great upgrade from my Vivoactive HR

Everything works great on this watch, with a lot of great upgrades from my old watch. The screen is big and clear and easy to read. The GPS sync is very fast! Definitely worth the purchase price. The only thing that doesn't work as well as my old one is the stair climb function. My old one was very good at sensing elevation changes, the new one doesn't measure that at all when not using the GPS.

Great upgrade from the Lily

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.

great!

I am not very good at reviews, but I hope that I can do justice to the vivoactive 6. I love it. It gives me a report every morning and every evening. If I don't get enough sleep it tells me, and it tells me what exercises I can do, in order to get a good night's sleep. It is customizable, and I love all the watch faces.

LOVE everything about it!

The last month has been amazing! The Vivoactive6 is great. I am capturing my stats and it is giving me the motivation make better health choices. I especially love the ease of adding my hydration. I work as a scrub and circulating nurse in the operating room. My work environment is dry with limited break time. I am chronically dehydrated. Now I am able to track my consumption and meet my goals. I am capturing my steps which allow me to increase as needed. I am capturing my Pilates, biking, and walking. The sleep function is an eye opener. Now I can really see what is happening at night. Everything about my V6 is easy, fun and motivating. I also love that I can easily change my band to match my activity. Work-stretch to wear on my upper forearm. A cute rose one for fashion. The factory default when I am doing other activities. Love Love Love it all!

Great Wearable Fitness Tracker

Garmin products are the best. I use this for my daily runs and workouts. It tracks everything. Another nice product from Garmin. I have used other brands and nothing matches the Garmin . I like that I can wear this one on my runs and out casually. It works for both scenarios. It tracks mileage accurately . My advice would be decide how you want to use your wearable and select one of Garmins devices that fits you best.

Awesome Purchase

I bought this for myself almost a month ago after hemming-and-hawing if I really needed a fitness tracking device. It is so much more than I expected. I love this accessory. It averages out my daily steps because there are days I am unable to wear my watch all day. The elliptical tracking is my favorite to watch my aerobic heart rate. Oh and its a watch. It's a great purchase that I hope you enjoy as much as I do.

Not as useful as I had hoped

After 2 weeks of use I've found it to be no more useful than my iPhone for tracking activity. The sleep score is ok but not as sensitive or insightful as I had hoped . The interface takes a lot to interpret. The swimming function is useless because the watchface doest't respond when my fingers are colder. If you don't have a smart phone then this might be a useful tool

vivoactive 6

Couple of weeks in - much better than my last Fitbit Charge 5 in most ways. Much more customization and training options. Took awhile to understand the different Garmin measurements. I really did like the Fitbit Zone measurement better, but the Garmin is superior in every other way. I will not be going back to Google/Fibt bit ever.

I need help

I am vision impaired and technically ignorant. If there is any web site/video/booklet that has pictures of the various screens and directions either extra large or so I could enlarge, it would be most helpful. I am 85 years old and live alone so I have been struggling for two or three weeks trying to set it up. I just want walking and water aerobics (or similar). No running, biking, skating. Is there a reference with heart, etc and how to change watch face easily?

Solid Upgrade from VivoActive 4

About a month in and so far so good. The touch screen is excellent, sleep tracking is much better. The only downside (and this may be a user error) is that golf doesn't seem to track steps, but the golf functionality is much better than the VivoActive 4. Battery life is really solid.
