    This is a nice watch that did all that it promises. The only flaw i found is the battery life. It doesn't last as long as i thought it would. My sure has to charge it almost every other day. Getting with Garmin to find out why

    I really love my new watch especially the color.. its so fashionable and it looks so extraordinary when I wear it. I also like the color and the different features that it has. It’s very useful for me especially when I’m doing my workouts. I can also keep track on my heart rates.I also love the different background colors that I can easily change every time I want.. overall very satisfied with my new vivo active 4s. I can truly recommend it to everyone!

    Expected much more. Screen quality is truly bad for a $200 watch. Battery only lasts 48-hours and that is without daily training. If I can go back in time I would rather get an Amazfit which is more than half the price. I have a Venu 2 which is great but this model, I cannot recommend.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    This watch replaces my Vivoactive 3. The older watch is now my backup. It has added features and yet is smaller. It has better battery life than its predecessor. The operating system is a little different but close enough that it was easy to transition from one watch to another. I hope Garmin keeps adding to the Vivoactive series.

    My wife loves that she can see a traditional watchface while still getting all the bells and whistles. The features are many. She still hasn't learned all of them yet. She wishes she could access Apple Music. She has very tiny wrists and I think some women with larger than average wrists would need a bigger band. She is super happy with this watch and prefers it over the more expensive, trendier brands.

    I haven't worn a watch in years, but I wanted to monitor my health stats. It is a nice-looking watch and does what it advertised. Not worth 350.00 but on sale at $200.00 was a good buy.

    It's about the handiest watch I ever had. Monitors all I need it to in terms of notifications and helps me keep track of my fitness and health goals where I needed all the help I could get. It's simple to work with - better than most fitness trackers/watches I've tried. It costs a little more than the average, but it is so worth it.

    I bought another one since it was still on sale so I can switch with different outfits. The best thing about the Garmin echo system is that you can have multiple watches of the same model and be able to have them connected. No need to un pair and pair like with the Fitbit echo system.

    Any Garmins are way way far accurate and precise than any other smart watches. I use a fenix series and bought this one for my wife and she liked it especially she swiTched from apple to garmins. Touch screen is a huge plus.

    Replaced another smart watch. Had one of the earlier Garmin’s when they first came out, and this is certainly an upgrade; but I like Garmin’s technology. Haven’t even begun to get into all this can do, but it is exactly what I needed for tracking my activities.
