    I love this tracker. I had a Nike fuel braclet for 3 yrs that recently broke and I needed a replacement . I stopped in Best Buy to use the restroom and while in there just asked a sales person a few questions about this garmin tracker and was convinced. When I got it set up and realized all that it can do I was so happy with my purchase. I can read text ,answer phone ,play music ,track my sleep, steps ,exercise ,heart rate. I am so happy with this purchase . WELL WORTH THE MONEY!!!!!!'

    Its very comfortable and has worked as advertised and like all the reviews have said; which does include some occasional issues with the smart notifications. Although I am not sure if some of those issues aren't attributable to my phone as it is getting near the end of its useful life. What I haven't quite figured out just yet is how to use it while working out, since I plan on doing more cardio then running. Most of the reviews say it can be used this way; so I will see soon enough. Also the Garmin connect app seems pretty good, found out though if you have a questionable phone uninstalling and then reinstalling the app seems to help with the apps stability significantly to the point that all of the issues I had are now gone.

    I have had a Garmin bike computer for years. I wanted an Ant+ heart rate monitor that wasn't a chest strap. This activity tracker fit the bill. It has good notifications too, but not while broadcasting Ant+ to bike computer. I like the overall look of the fitbit trackers better, but it looks pretty good.

    Because I have AFib I need to keep track of my heart rate. This is a perfect tracker to do so many things. I miss it if I have it charging, but it does so very quickly. This is a good product.

    It is handy to see texts or phone calls especially when you cannot get to your phone quickly. Helpful when monitoring steps. Tracks sleep but not sure how accurate it is. It is nice being waterproof. Can wash hands without taking off the watch. Nice to have the option to change screen settings.

    Works better/ more accurate than I thought, I do think it is off a little 5% on the steps and the sleep is hard to say, I think it is off, but it might be telling the truth and I am off. Do not want to spend a grand for a sleep study to find out. I will say after months of research this brand is more accurate and better spot on features than the comp out their. I will be getting the bigger ( Man) version soon. App works great, notifications are awesome.

    I've had my vivosmart HR in purple for 2 months now. I wear it every day but I take it off while showering and sleeping. I feel that it is very accurate in tracking my workouts. Two of my friends have the same one and we like how we can challenge each other and keep each other accountable. My favorite part about this is that it is waterproof. I like that I can take it in the shower with me and not have to worry about ruining it. I took away one star because the black clasp rubbed off the top layer the first week I got it. It's not THAT big of a deal but for $150, it should hold up a little better. My other 2 friends has not had this issue. Not sure if it is because I am left handed and wear the devise on my right wrist and use a computer a lot at work (scratching from using mouse?). Also, I've noticed when I'm at the grocery store, my steps don't track when I'm holding on to the shopping cart. Other than that, I do love this fitness tracker and it works just like it needs to

    I am a fan of Garmin products so overall I like the watch. The step tracker seems to be fairly accurate. The Garmin Connect app on my phone is very easy to set up and use. I also have a Garmin for my bicycle so all my fitness information is in one place on the Garmin Express computer app. The device is waterproof;I have worn the device in the lake and pool without problems; I always make sure to rinse and dry afterwards. My only complaint is the Intensity Minutes recording does not work consistently. For example, I have exercised in a 60 spin class and got zero intensity minutes but walked my dog later the same day and intensity minutes record. Garmin says this has to do with the placement on the wrist and if the user is wearing any lotion, etc., but I've found the recordings to be random. This problem may have been corrected in a recent update because my intensity minutes recorded well this past week. I would still recommend with that caveat.

    The tracker is accurate for tracking calories and heart rate. However, the stairs are not as accurate. It's easy to pair to a laptop and a user friendly interface. I wish it could store multiple day activities in the memory, instead of just the current day.
