Love the features and the charge!

After being an apple girl for so long, I was looking for a watch I didn't have to charge every night and that wouldn't die on me mid way through the day. This watch has all the features I was looking for (except tap to pay as our bank doesn't participate with Garmin pay). The sleep, body battery and fitness components were primarily what I was looking for and this fits that need for sure.

Nice features, but fragile

I had been happy with my Vivoactive 3 so I decided to upgrade to the Vivoactive 6. After owning the 6 for less than 2 weeks I noticed a big scratch on the watch face. I don't even know what I touched to cause it. If I knew the watch face glass was so soft, then I would have considered a different watch or at least a screen protector. The watch still works, but I am disappointed at the durability given the cost and my experience with the 3.

Simple and Easy

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!

Versatile

Happy with the features that the watch provides. Sleep score is great, reports are handy. The biggest flaw (which I think is big) is that there is no barometer/altimeter. With there being set challenges for climbs, its ironic that this watch doesn't have those amenities

Not a great watch

I replaced my Vivoactive 4 with the 6 and have had nothing but trouble. The set up was difficult compared to the 4. And twice the screen has gone black. I can hear the beeps when I push the buttons but no screen. It eventually came back on after about 10 minutes. I reached out to support and received no help.

Feeling ACTIVE & ALIVE

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.

Great Smart Watch!

I made the switch from an iwatch because I wanted a round faced watch. The Garmin vivoactive 6 does almost everything the iwatch did. Since I have an iphone I cannot respond to a text or answer a phone call from the Garmin, but that is not a deal breaker for me. I almost always have the phone near by so it isn't a big deal to grab the phone and answer. I love the graphics and ease of use. I am not a big exerciser, but I do like to track my walks and bike rides. I can still interface the into with Strava so my friends can see my progress. You can also customize the face and what you want to see on the watch face. I love the green color, too. I highly recommend the Garmin Vivoactive 6!

what i was looking for

I am a type one diabetic searching for a new watch capable of accommodating my busy lifestyle and displaying my blood sugar readings on the watch face. After extensive research into various watches, I selected the Vivoactive 6 for its comprehensive features, and I anticipate it will be a long-term companion. The watch is impressive with all its technological advancements, and the golf feature is particularly innovative.

Awesome watch!

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!

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!
