I up graded from the older model love this watch. I like how the Face looks like a regular watch. it’s very light weight, I forget that I have it on at times. It has everything I need for my workouts plus the music!

If you're not used to the Garmin screens, they're brilliant in daylight and sufficient light but very dim in lowlight.

This is certainly the Garmin for runners. Many features and it helps track hydration on your app on your phone. Something some of the other Garmins don't do. The main issue I have with it is charging. The back of the watch seems to wear very quickly and thus gives me issues when charging where it doesn't get a solid connection to charge the device. And since its battery life is not great I'm having to charge it almost every day. Other than that it is a great little device.

I replaced my Forerunner 235 with the VA3 Music and have been very pleased. Haven't experienced any Bluetooth issues that I've read in other reviews. Prefer running with this over the Apple watch

I had the older version Vivoactive and really liked it. I received this one as a gift. I love the improvements! Moving from sport to sport is quick and easy with the touch screen. I really enjoy that it tracks active time and rest time between intervals. Display is great and I enjoy customizing the face/features. My only complaint is that you must use a computer to download music. All my music is on my phone. Seems like you should be able to Bluetooth it over, or access it from an app. Because of needing to use the computer, I have not used the music feature at all. Seems like a waste. Hope they come up with a more innovative solution. Mobile technology is common place.

Let me start by saying I have been a Garmin fan for a while. This is very accurate on GPS, heart rate, sleep track, steps, etc. All works great. No issues with mine.

Bought this for my daughter, because she needed it for cross country, and she loves it. So nice to load music on it, it was why she picked this one over others.

I want to love this watch. My probable with it is the GPS. The first week it worked great. Fast gps lock and accurate tracking on runs. After that I did an update an now I never get locked in HOA signal before a run and of course my runs are track 1/4 to 1/2 mile short. That messes up my overall pace tracking. It’s frustrating, due to the fact that it worked so well when I first got it. I’m hoping another update will correct this issue.

This watch is beautiful, very precise in measuring, there are plenty of exercise modes, HR is spot on. The music is a plus when I work out without my phone.
