    Great Fitness Watch

    This watch is perfect for anyone who wants a smart watch where fitness is the most Important. The Garmin does not have all the frills of the iWatch but it does a better job counting the things that matter. It is comfortable to wear and I love the kick it gives you when it is time to move.

    I don't know how close to right the steps are. It's fairly bulky. It paired with my cell phone when Fitbit wouldn't.

    It's a great activity tracker. Not so sure on the sleep tracker. It tells me that I typically only get 2 hours of deep sleep a night. Just doesn't seem very accurate.

    The Vivosmart exercise tracker is great for keeping track of your daily movements. It links with your smart phone as well. Only advice is to make sure you get one with a big enough band. E.g. the "large"band is not very large. If you have a large wrist, get the extra large band.

    I'm very happy with my Garmin Vivosmart HR. The only drawback so far has been the wristband. My band fits but barely. I wish I knew there were other sizes sooner.

    Beats Fitbit by a mile in price and performance. I accidentally ran it through a washer and dryer cycle and obviously feared for the worst (especially the high heat drying cycle), hakuna matara mis amigos, the thing turned right back on. Love it!!!

    I had worn a Vivofit for 2 years and decided to upgrade rather than buy new batteries. Got a good price for the Vivosmart HR and like the added features.

    Does a good job for the most part. There are times that motions are counted as steps. I don't like that it counts "sleeping" calories.

    that we bought 2. That being said - the bluetooth connection to phone dies a lot more often than I'd like. The steps are as accurate, I guess, as any of the other fitibits. If you're buying a tracker for accuracy, I think you'll be disappointed. More than anything it gives me an overall sense of how active Ive been - directionally right, specifically wrong is probably a good way to describe em. I'm fine w/ my device(s), but honestly, I wouldn't recommend to anybody.
