    Activity tracker works well. Battery does not last as long as stated in description. I get about 3 days before having to charge.

    As advertised. Works well with android. A little bit itchy once you've worn it for a while but otherwise good purchase.

    Garmin Vivosmart Tracker, not user friendly

    It took me hours, trying to figure out how to work this, finally got my information in the profile. I could not get it to sync. I finally took it back to Best Buy and traded it for the FitBit Charge. I watched the salesman, Nick, hook it up for me in 4 easy steps! I could have done that myself I feel sure.Took it home, charged battery more and all the info came right up on my iPhone.

    Very disappointed. I am a long distance walker and It did not track accurately. Sleep monitor was also deceiving.

    I bought this and it's great does what it's meant for but after about 8 months the screen started to fade and I couldn't read the screen. I sent it back to farming and they sent me another and now a week later the same thing happened to this one it would be a fantastic product if the screen didint mess up.

    This device would not sync reliably to an LG G2 phone, even if it was sitting right next to it. Upon further review, this device has limited support for Android devices. Big disappointment. Product was returned.

    Purchased the Garmin vivosmart band for my son to track his activity for soccer games he plays. It works great since it does not require you to keep your smartphone near by. It will sync it's data once it connects to the phones bluetooth.

    This product has exceeded my expectations. Definitely worth the extra cost to get the Vivosmart. The Bluetooth is awesome and you can track your activity through the app anytime anywhere.

    This is a great watch! Not only does it count steps it also gives a picture of your sleeping habits! Those are two of my favorite attributes. There are way too many benefits to list on this review! Check it out for yourself!

    I've tried a few activity trackers and like this one best. I like how it interfaces with my phone and lets me know when I have a text or incoming call. Setup was easy and the Garmin Connect site makes it easy to see how you're doing.
