Many appreciate its water resistance and accurate step tracking capabilities, along with the comfortable fit and useful sleep tracking features. However, some users experienced issues with the display size and Bluetooth connectivity. A few customers also noted that the device lacks a built-in heart rate monitor and that the software could be improved.

    Product worked like it should, while it did. The screen died after 4 months, item still worked except not being able to see the screen.

    Bought for wife. She loves it. It is small enough so as not to be so big looking on small wrist.

    Works great but has some trouble syncing sometimes. A cool feature is the vibration and when it tells you to move after sitting for too long.

    Started with a Fitbit, upgraded to a Vivofit because I wanted a display with the time. Then as soon as the Vivosmart came out, I upgraded to it. This device has everything you need. A display that lights up, easy sync with phone, alarm clock, timers, phone message alerts, and so much more.

    Excellent band but what I have noticed is that after a few months the display screen gets small and it's hard to read.

    The Vivosmart looks good and is packed with many cool functions. however i am in the process of sending the forth one back to Garmin. either the battery dies or the display stops working. Four have bit the dust in five months. Garmin has given me no hassles on replacing them, but it would be nice if I could get one that worked.

    Love this band for the couple weeks that it was working. Exchanged it the first time in a couple weeks because it would no longer turn on. Exchanged it again when 1/2 of the touch screen would not work. Finally returned #3 when the display stopped working all together. Either it's not really waterproof or I've got the worst luck with this device ever. Awesome features when it did work though... really liked the move bar and it would give me all the notices from my phone. Charge lasted about 5-6 days.

      Sorry for the experience you received from the vívosmart. It's very likely when any of these units were out of the box new, they did not have any software updates on them that we recently updated. Updates that address issues such as touch responsiveness. We feel confident the updates we released have improved overall quality to our product.

    This activity tracker tracked. However the caller ID was not all that. Text messaging hard to read when not running cannot imagine when running.

Notifications, however, are always displayed in landscape format.

      We do appreciate your valuable feedback. Thanks again. *CG Garmin

    Works exactly as advertised. Couldn't be happier. Device updated itself the other day from 2.50 to 2.60. Accurately counts my steps. Auto-adjusts your goal each day based on previous days. Blows the other devices, such as Nike, away. Much larger display screen than other devices.

    Not really a stylish device, and the associated phone app (at least on iOS) is horrible. FitBit and Jawbone Up are better deals.

    I like this fitness band. It keeps track of distance, calories burned, the date and time and alerts you to messages via bluetooth.
