Another great product from Garmin

My partner has been using this watch for a few weeks now and it has been awesome! They are an extremely active person just like myself and so we are always putting them to the test. Its a bit less rugged so I would keep this recommendation towards work that isn't going to be physically harsh on the device or towards people looking for a more stylish smart watch that is built for an active lifestyle. It has been a great watch so far and is easy enough to use. It looks really nice and does everything an active person would want it to do and more. The battery life is fantastic compared to apple, fitbit, or galaxy watches.

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.

Great fitness watch

I've had a Garmin before and absolutely love them. They provide wonderful insight into your health and fitness and are perfect for anyone who's looking to be more health/fitness oriented on a daily basis. I run and swim frequently and this watch is perfect for these sports, I'm excited to use it for snowboarding this winter! I love the feedback and analysis I get after each workout.

An upgrade from my Polar

I recently broke my Polar fitness tracker, looked at reviews of Android compatible fitness trackers and decided on the vivoactive 6. I have not been disappointed. Setup was easy, and so is defining and tracking my workouts. The fitness, health and sleep summaries are very useful, and I was pleasantly surprised that after going on a hike, I got a visual representation of my path. Overall, quite pleased.

Love it

I had a vivo 4 that was not staying charged long enough any more, so Garmin was my first choice. I also use a Garmin Edge for my road cycling which pairs perfectly with the watch. I love how long it stays charged and is easy to read. I am still getting used to all of it's capabilities regarding activities, but I love it and would recommend it to others.

Not impressed so far

I gotta say I'm not very impressed with it so far. The fact that I can't control which apps send notifications to the watch (for iOS it all or nothing. If you get a notification on your phone, you get it on the watch. No exceptions.) is bordering on a dealbreaker for me. I like the body battery feature, and that's mostly what I bought it for, but it's not very intuitive to use and interpret. Reading the stats on the watch is somewhat clunky, and the app isn't particularly intuitive. I also wish there were more plug and play watch faces with a slightly cleaner look. I don't want to do all the fussing with the Connect app to find a face that I probably have to pay extra for anyway. So far the transition from FitBit to Garmin has been challenging and I'm not sure if I'll be able to stick it out or have to pivot back. Trying to give it a real shot though.

Accurate and comfortable

I was previously a Garmin owner and moved away to another brand. After several months of inaccurate tracking, it was time to go back to Garmin. The Vivoactive 6 came out and it was in my favorite color green. It was meant to be. Ive been wearing it most of the time and comparing the data between the two devices. It is definitely more accurate in tracking my steps and Im still learning how to track my workouts as the system has changed a bit in 8 years. I feel it gives me accurate data on the sleep, heart rate and other areas too.

So far… awesome watch

I've had this watch for about 4-5 weeks now and really like it. Love the features, specifically the sleep tracking, body battery, calorie tracking, activity tracking. I'm still learning about the algorithm behind these features, and I recognize they may not be fully accurate, but if you're serious about tracking metrics for health and fitness, this is a great tool.

Best purchase!

Made the swap from my apple watch to the vivoactive 6 and I do not regret it at all!! I love it so much. The details on every activity you log and the amount of info it provides is the best. I bought it mainly to keep track of my weightlifting at the gym and my runs. It also helps me to stay more motivated in hitting my steps or having a little break when I'm not moving as much. I do not ever take it off! Best purchased I've made in quite a while. Definitely recommend it if you are someone interested in health and fitness.

So many features!!

I received my Vivosmart 6 and I absolutely love it! This beautiful watch replaced my Vivomove 3S and there are so many more functions and features than what I was used to. It's a great watch and I highly recommend it! I enjoy being able to put photos on the watch too.
