    Good, strap needs to be very tight for accuracy

    Synchronizing and pairing can be a pain. If you perspire a lot strap must be tighter.

    My husband keeps his phone only on vibrate, so this never let's him miss a call or text. Looks so much better and easier to read than the last model. I have an Apple Watch, he prefers this brand.

    Love my Garmin. The step counter is accurate. Added benefit: when I forget to turn my sound back up on my iPhone I don’t miss calls because my Garmin notifies me of incoming calls.

    Average at best

    Activity trackers keep getting better, but this one is average at best. I had a Fitbit Charge HR, and it broke after a year. I didn't like the fact that it was not waterproof, so went with the Garmin. The Fitbit was much more accurate at tracking steps and floors climbed. They all need some work on accuracy, but Garmin needs quite a bit of work. I miss my Fitbit.

    Really like this fitness tracker. The text and phone notifications make it very convenient to know when you receive a text or call. Like the fact that I don't have to use phone for a quick glance.

    The Garmin was most of the time inaccurate and far less than helpful. I ended up selling it.

    The watch is great. I loved it till I was no longer able to put it on. I got the watch from bestbuy, I used it for 30 days was very into the garmin challenges, but when the watch fell off, I sent bestbuy an email they said because it was past 14 days I need to contact garmin, it took 3 days for garmin to get back to me and there now wanting proof I bought it. Grrrrr

    I have worn the Garmin almost everyday since I received it in 2017. The display is clearer than my spouse’s Fitbit (around the same cost), and has more features. Works great.

    Had a Fitbit die so decided to try Garmin. Just as good if not better. Like the size of the screen.

    Not only does it record the information my wife wanted, it also does not break out her arm. She has a problem with jewelry causing a rash on her arm, but this one doesn't effect her.

    I love my Garmin VivosmartHR wrist watch. My main reason for purchasing this brand was for step counting and the water proof aspect. Many of the other brands I looked at were only "splash resistant".
