    Stylish, but lacks accuracy at high heart rate

    Usually love garmin products, own many. Had high hopes for this, and it works great for everyday, but seems to lack accuracy at high heart rates when cycling for example. Sadly, returning to my garmin chest strap, which while less comfortable seems to be much more accurate.

      We would like to offer a few suggestions to improve the accuracy of your optical heart rate. We have an FAQ available and linked below that outlines the adjustments users can make to improve these readings.

      The ability to pair a heart rate strap was added to this device for users who would like an added level of accuracy. Thank you for the review and best regards.

    The best all-around fitness band for the money

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've owned several different fitness bands over the years, including much of the earlier Fitbit line of products. Last year, I purchased the vivosmart tracker and have been a Garmin fan ever since. The vivosmart HR has many improvements over the original vivosmart, most notably the heart rate monitor. But I find the design much better, as well. In addition to everything the vivosmart tracks, the vivosmart HR has the following: --The screen is on all the time. There's no more tapping the band to get the time/date --The screen is much much clearer, rather than the kind of foggy appearance of the vivosmart --The HR tracks stairs climbed --The HR tracks weekly intensity minutes --The band shows the weather. Current temp, expected high/low temps and humidity are indicated, as well as a picture of what the weather looks like outside (e.g., cloudy, sunny, rainy, etc.) And don't forget notification alerts, alarm, timer, find your phone, move notifications, decent battery life, sleep tracking, move bar and waterproof to 5 ATM. Garmin also recently updated the associated app that shows a ton of information in an eye-appealing form factor. Syncing to the app is also much faster with the HR. If you're in the market for a fitness tracker that does it all and more for a very affordable price, check out the vivosmart HR.
