Garmin - vivosmart 4 Activity Tracker + Heart Rate - Black

I had been a Fitbit user for years, but became frustrated with how they dropped support for linking multiple trackers to a single account. I decided to give this a go, and have been very happy. It is easy to setup, comfortable on the wrist, and the integration with Apple Health is a nice bonus. Some of the features like the "Body Battery" can be a bit confusing for someone coming from a different ecosystem. This is a product where I definitely was looking certain functions up in the manual. However, I learned the specifics fairly quickly. My only complaints would be that sometimes the screen isn't as responsive to taps and that it isn't as good at auto-recognizing workouts as my Fitbit. However, I definitely am happy I made the switch.

Syncs good with the phone. Battery life is excellent only have to charge every other day. Tracks all activity.

the activity tracker was very easy to use after my daughter was able to get it set up with all my information. I enjoy using the tracker to keep track of all my vitals and steps.

I would defiantly make sure to get a warranty for this watch. I love the style, light weight, and the service that comes along with any muk-ups. I had only had this watch for two months and the silver facing popped off which made it ultra sensitive and answering calls during intimate times, how embarrassing!! I however did purchase the 2yr warranty and had no luck going through Best Buy personally but as soon as I talked to Garmin for the replacement I was HIGHLY impressed!! Would recommend this watch to anyone.

I had an older version that was discontinued?? I got this in place of that and it does the same thing. My only gripe is the small screen size and tapping it the change or access features. It's kinda clumsy and you have to be careful or you may click on something you don't want. If you have small figures you should be ok. Or you need to just take your time to tap on the screen. I still like alot but not sure if I would buy it again if they had one with a bigger screen. A new feature this one has that my old one didn't is stress notifications. I'm not quite sure I understand how it work yet but its suppose to let you know when you maybe overstressing your body??? Likes: that I can see when I receive a notification on my phone that is challenges me / it makes adjustments automatically for goals. That is keeps me informed of my goals

My wifes review, it works and its very reliable but I would like more color choices, ability to change more watch faces , ability to use garmin connect store. I liked the style of the fitbit but it broke and they had horrible customer service , so I am trying Garmin. That was my wifes comments. I personally have had 2 Garmin watches and love their products.

I previously had a Garmin soft strap for my HR workouts and it worked great. The vivosmart 4 does all that and more. Even solves some issues, like no more stinky strap. I wanted it specifically for the pulse ox features, but my issue is its only setup to run at night while you sleep and not during your workout. It's geared for people with sleep apnea, not people trying to optimize Sprint efforts. I like the body battery feature and it's amazingly accurate. Recently got a bad virus and the battery closely matches how I felt over the week. It buzzes a lot with notifications that dont matter to me, not that they stay up long enough for me to see. It does broadcast ANT+. But it won't do anything else while broadcasting. The battery does last a week and charges in 2 hours or less. Heart rate seem pretty close to what I got with my strap.

I switched from a Fitbit to this Garmin because I wanted a fitness tracker that would integrate with my Garmin bike monitor an app. I purchased the Vivosmart 4 because I wanted only basic data--heart rate, sleep monitoring, no GPS (I use my phone and Garmin bike monitor for that), and I wanted it to be smaller than a prison ankle bracelet and a relatively inexpensive price. The Vivosmart 4 fit my needs perfectly--is lightweight, small, cost-effective, integrates with my other equipment on my Garmin app (which I really like), and even adds O2 level monitoring. Needs to be charged once a week.
