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.

Great updates!

I just got the vivoactive 6 after having the vivoactive 4 for the past few years. Wow, what a great update! Graphics are so much brighter and added insights like sleep and sleep coach is great! And the extended battery life is amazing! I had to charge my old one every night and this one can go for days without a charge!!!

Learning curve

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.

Great features

My husband surprised me with this watch a few weeks ago when my old watch kicked the dust. I wasn't sure if anything could replace my beloved Fitbit. I was so wrong. This watch does everything my fitbit did plus so much more and I absolutely love it. I love how easy it was to change the band out (I can't handle the feel of silicone bands.. it gives me the heebie jeebies). This watch easy to set up and very user friendly. Worth the price.

Love Garmin - but stair tracking doesn't work

I bought the vivo6 a month ago, love some of the new features that are available. Unfortunately one of the features that I used on my previous watch doesn't work - stair tracking. I have reported the problem through the website and unfortunately have gotten no response. Of course the website didn't provide confirmation it sent, so here I sit with a broken watch and no help.

Difficult for the elderly to understand…

I was very happy with the level of technology this watch contains until I realized that being 77 years old I had difficulty with the learning process. After many hours watching videos and phone calls I am almost there. The 5 stars are for the younger folks who have a better understanding of technology…Hippie Bob

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.

Great watch

The vívoactive® 6 is like having a coach and cheerleader on your wrist. Fast GPS, long battery life, accurate fitness tracking, and even sleep and stress insights—all wrapped in a sporty, versatile design. It's not the sleekest fashion watch, but if you want a smartwatch that keeps up with every workout and everyday life, this one delivers.

Impressive Device!

I purchased the Vivoactive 6 two weeks ago, and it's significantly enhanced my running experience. The HRV and extensive fitness data were key selling points. I'm thrilled with the wealth of new data available, but there's one major drawback: Spotify integration. Unfortunately, the software isn't optimized, and I need to uninstall the app every few days to ensure smooth music playback. Hopefully, Garmin will address this issue soon.

Feature-Packed Watch with Outstanding Battery Life

he Garmin Vivoactive 6 delivers incredible value for the price. Battery life is excellent—I can easily go several days between charges, even with GPS and smart features enabled. The display is crisp and responsive, and the range of health and fitness tracking features rivals much more expensive models. It handles everything from strength training to hiking with ease, and the built-in GPS is fast and accurate. I also appreciate the improved heart rate tracking and the intuitive interface. For anyone looking for a well-rounded fitness smartwatch without breaking the bank, this is a top-tier choice.
