    I bought this for my husband for his birthday. It does everything he wants it to do and is actually compatible with his phone (some others weren't compatible).

    Received this as a Christmas present. Overall happy with the device features, however battery life did not live up to its claim. Claims up to 5 days on a charge. I was lucky to get 12 hours a day before needing to charge it. After speaking numerous times with the techs at Garmin and implementing their suggestions I was advised it was a product defect and to return to the purchase store. Customer Service at Best Buy did not want to even exchange at first since it was past the 15 day return policy. They eventually agreed to exchange it, but then wanted to charge me the $50 difference since it was originally purchased at sale price and was no longer on sale. After a lengthy process Best Buy did agree to even exchange it. While it was a frustrating process I am hopeful the newly exchanged one works as promised.

    The device functions as it should. It syncs well with the Garmin App, Map My Run and Weight Watchers. My main issue is with how easily the face scratches. I can barely read it now. I am not hard on my things, I’ve never had this issue with my phones or my Fitbit.

    The watch is great for keeping up with workout stats, and has just enough phone notification for someone that is not looking for a full blown smart watch.

    My Garmin Vivosmart HR motivates me to get up and get moving even on days I don't feel like doing anything. I like the look also and can wear it with anything.

    HR accuracy off by as much as 10 beats, no way to download data records to a PC or share with my cardiologist. Stops synching with android device often. I don't know if the garmin devices are better or worse than other brands, but I guess Maybe I will have to pay more than $99 to find out.
