||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The tracker is not that accurate but good enough if you just want a reminder to be active. I love being in a meeting and being able to discreetly see whose calling me or read text messages.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've tried numerous activity trackers. I'm really not totally satisfied with any of them. Let me start by saying I'm a swimmer. Therefore I have 2 Garmin products: The Garmin Swim and the Vivosmart. I would prefer to have one product that combines swimming and walking. And because the tracker is also a watch, I'd prefer to be able to view the time at any time and not have to swing my hand up to my face, which is awkward when driving. I also have the Vivofit which is not backlit, which turns out to be very inconvenient; on the other hand the time could be viewed at all times. I do not like the computer interface of Garmin products. Too confusing. But I can use both the Swim and the Vivosmart at one site.. I also don't like to have to charge the Vivosmart every couple days because there's not convenient time to do it without losing data or sleep time. I'm still looking for that perfect activity tracker for us swimmers. I would like to sit down with one of the designers and tell them what I think is important.

Posted .We do have a product that combines swimming and walking with many other activity trackers on it. The Forerunner 920XT does both walking activity and swimming. This product does focus on multiple sports rather than just swimming but it’s something worth looking into.
The vívosmart battery performance varies based on many factors, for example the number of times it is used with the heart rate monitor and the smart notifications from the phone. There are some Bluetooth updates on some operating systems of the phones that have improved battery life of the vívosmart. Be sure to check updates on firmware of your phone and vívosmart.

Keeping me on track
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really am proud of this purchase. It keeps me on track and connected with my phone, emails and fitness.
I would recommend this to a friendGreat product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a great product. It is very high quality and went far above and beyond what I thought it would!
I would recommend this to a friendGreat combination
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Vivosmart has a very nice combination of capabilities. The phone connectivity is one of the best.
I would recommend this to a friendgreat fitness tracker and extension of my iPhone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I almost docked a star due to the fitness band sometimes not being as responsive as I would like. The band provides just enough information, is responsive when I need it and is a great alternative to wearing a watch. Just wearing a fitness tracker causes me to be more conscious of moving around and eating right (I have it paired with Myfitnesspal) and lost 10 pounds in the first 5 weeks.
I would recommend this to a friendGood fitness band
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like the sleep function and alarms indicating when goal is reached. Also prefer the compact size compared to bigger watches.
I would recommend this to a friendblurry readouts
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned this tracker. Although it is sleek and had the low profile style i was looking for, the screen readout is nowhere near clear. It has a blurry look to it that i just didn't like. Maybe its just me but even in the pics you can see what im referring to. It may not bother some, but if there's a readout, the tech is there to make it clear.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from GarminProductExpert
Posted .We sincerely apologize that the display didn’t work out for you. The vívosmart is an OLED (illuminated) display with 128 x 16 pixels. It is very comparable to seeing an illuminated LED sign on a highway or banner but may not be for everyone.

More than just a tracker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Links to my phone through my Bluetooth enabling me to see messages without have to take out my phone.
I would recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Battery life, Water resistance
Lousy quality control
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I posted a full review for the all black tracker since that's what we now have. The berry is what my wife wanted but the screen didn't work right and Best Buy says this one is no longer available. It's just meh. It's perfectly good for the price. Water proof is nice. Alerts with iPhone suck(too many). Good battery life
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Great...
