    Feature packed but will it last

    This watch has all the goodness packed into the original Vivoactive 3 and the addition of music. Solid feature set, but a different less metal more plastic and glass design. So far it's been great, but I do get concerned about the future durability of the glass bezel. Only time will tell.

    I have been a fitbit user and decided to switch to Garmin after a friend recommended Garmin. I am glad I decided to try the new brand. The watch is very comfortable and customizable. I like the golf features, and the way you can customize the watch face and activities.

    Great at everything advertised. Concern is with battery. Get a solid 6-8 days on single charge for normal use. Count on charging it every day if you connect to your phone for smart watch connectivity and bluetooth info/updates like weather and text alerts.

    Love the many features of this Garmin! My only complaint regards my difficulties in getting the music to play non stop during my indoor runs. I can work around it but the music storage/playback component was a specific selling feature.

    This is a fantastic timepiece you can use for everyday use, whether it be worn during working hours, while exercising, or just lounging around. It offers a great baseline overview and accounting of your daily activity or lack thereof! Best Buy will price match any other advertised price too!

    The Vivoactive 3 Music had some mixed reviews but I have to say this watch has been noting but great. Bluetooth headset works great no matter what hand you where the watch on. The fitness tracker is very easy to use. The best feature by far is that this particular watch has Spotify. Love this product!

    I wanted something with GPS for mileage and mapping but not where I can answer my phone & talk. This gives me what I need plus ability for yes/no text response, music, wireless headset. I recommend this for the non-athlete.

    The watch is great, but I still experience periodic lockups like the previous Garmin watch. The watch face is round, but the display is geared to a square so you only see partial info on the top and bottom entries

    A great watch, but seems overpriced. I purchased because I wanted a watch that could stream music directly, but ended up exchanging for one that just controls music streaming from phone, since the cost was much lower.

    I purchased the Garmin - vívoactive 3 Music Smartwatch for my husband and he loves it! The vivoactive 3 music is great for using when running or any sport and exercise activity. You can download music and listen without needing you phone nearby. I'm considering buying one myself.

    I bought this to replace my Fitbit and couldn't be happier. it does a great job tracking steps and has quite a few exercises already on the watch I was able to sync it with my spotify account and listen on wireless headphones using bluetooth. Definitely recommend this watch.
