A few also noted challenges with syncing the device and the lack of a built-in heart rate monitor.

I bought this for my 12 year old son for our summer trip through several national parks. He loves wearing it all the time because it is waterproof. I love that you don't have to charge it. It counts his reps and challenges him to up his goal every day and it tells time. Great little fitness tracker.

This watch has been great for tracking daily fit stats. Is it a feature rich runners watch no but does it work great for day to day yes. It is easy to operate the phone app works very well. It has replaced me wearing a normal watch. It is pretty accurate on the sleep function and easily tracks my daily stats. If you need a basic fit watch this one is great.

I bought this to replace a Fitbit. I love the fact that I don't have to charge it all the time. It's supposed to be good for a year. And I shower and wash dishes with it on. I also love the locking feature of the wristband.

About a month ago I decided to walk 10,000 steps a day so I needed something to keep track of my steps. Because I love to spend time in the water I sought a water proof tracker. I have loved my Vivi-Fit 3 and gotten 10,000 steps every day but three with one not being set for 10,000 but 7,500. It has made exercising easier and more rewarding.

Much better than the second generation tracker. Everything I did not like about the second generation has been improved upon any third-generation. It knows when I am walking even if I am not swinging my arms and does not come apart as easily as a second generation.

It does what it’s supissed to do. Counts your steps and tracks your sleep. Coupled wit the “My Fitness” app helps you count calories and change eating habits, all at a fraction of the price of an Apple Watch.

Bought this product due to the 1 year battery life. I hated charging my old fitness device every three or four days. So far, so good with this one. Doesn't monitor heartbeat, but the battery life trumps that for me.

A Nice "Step" Up from a Pedometer

I have been using a pedometer to track my steps for over 10 years and decided it was time to upgrade to a fitness tracker.
So far, I'm happy with the change to this one.
Pros:
*Cost was less than $100
*Wristwatch form factor makes it easier to check on my progress for the day
*It does not need to be charged every few days
*Allows for the band to be switched out
Cons:
*It requires setting up and syncing to a Garmin Connect online account and is pretty useless unless you do
*The battery will need to be replaced sometime within the next year (though, I'm used to that...)

This is a great tracker because it has multi uses. i.e. watch, mileage, steps tracked, heart rate etc. The best thing about it is it is waterproof and only needs a battery change once a year. I don't like trackers that need to be charged up every day, too many steps missed while charging.

I bought this for a friend that was working on increasing her activity. She said it has really helped motivate her to walk more and now she feels naked without it. She likes that it's waterproof and that she can change the band to something pretty when she wants to.

My husband switched from a FitBit HR to this because we do a water exercise class 3x week and we walk a lot in the pool. This device works pretty good, although because of buoyancy (I think) all his steps are not counted. It's not very easy to link to his Macbook, but on the whole, he is happy with it.

Garmin's app to use with it is pretty good many options. Like don;t have to charge daily or every few days. Tracks very accurately. Only down side is display can be hard to see in poor lit areas.

I researched tons of different fitness trackers before committing. This one is awesome! Does everything I need it to, and the fact that I do not have to charge it, nor do I have to worry about remembering to take it off before going swimming/showering/anything is absolutely fantastic!

Better than FitBit

Two advantages:
1. water resistant (I played volleyball in the pool with mine with no problem. My friend did the same with her Fitbit and it was ruined.
2. it has a battery so you don't have to worry about whether you need to plug it in and charge it. Battery last a year.
