Best purchase ever!
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this watch! I have had it almost a year and have had no problems, even with as much as it gets beat up. I can customize the activities I want to see and the app is really easy to use. Using it in conjunction with the nutrition app, I lost 40lbs without a fitness coach. Even after a year, the battery life is still awesome!

Mom loves it!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My mom is loving this watch. I purchased this for her on Mother's day. She's been recommending that everyone should have a smart watch. She loves the stress, heart rate, and steps monitor. That's her thing now is to watch her levels throughout the day. I got this on sale for 89 bucks which you can't beat.

Some battery issues, but a nice piece.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to primarily use to track my workouts, walking and also use for golf yardage. It is very easy to use and integrate with my iPhone. Worked great for the first 3 months and then battery life decreased significantly. Went from charging once every 5-6 days to having to charging every 2 days. Did a little google search and found this to be a known issue. I contacted Garmin and they were very quick to respond and I returned the watch for a refurbished one. That had the same issue, so I returned that one and they sent a new replacement, so far so good. But I guess we will have to see how long this one lasts. I am cautiously optimistic. I rate Garmin’s responsiveness and customer service as a 5 of 5, but looking back- I’d have probably gone with an upgraded model.

Great Battery Life
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Compared many smart/active watches and chose this for the battery life alone. Works great without needing a charge for over a week and charges from 0 to 100% in about an hour. GPS mode is buggy at times but overall works for what I need it for

A great mix for both the enthusiast and newbie!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fantastic fitness tracking with very accurate HR data. App is as smooth as ever for more data diver types. A very underrated feature is the golf tracking. Used the original Vivoactive for 4 years and consistently surprised folks with laser range finders by being within a yard or two of their distance. No different on the Vivoactive 3, absolutely magnificent.

Phase 2
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked up my replacement yesterday that lasted less than 6 months the last time. The left side of the watch numbers quit working and I had the replacement plan (buy it - well worth it). The GPS is accurate, heart rate is decent for average workouts and overall it was my favorite choice as I needed all the features and a swimmable watch.

nice product, reliable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love my vivoactive. Reliable, accurate, love the dashboard in my phone. My only concern (thus 4 starts rather than 5) is that sometimes, the battery drops rather quickly. It seems to be associated with the GPS (when running, walking, or biking). If you have some extra cash, get at least one extra cable so you can always charge it in your car

Perfect watch for active people
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Watche is perfect for athletes and active people to do different things and record your results. It is a little sensitive when it comes to wetness on the face or if you slightly bump it with your opposite hand, it can change the screen but overall excellent watch. It wears well and is extremely lite.

It’s a VERY GOOD buy!!!

Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a fantastic smart watch, as it captures your Heart Rate, Activities and MAINLY Stress Level. It’s an amazing watch with all required Health data are captured. The App captures are the details and present in Crisp Way. The data can be shared with iPhone Health App too. It’s a VERY GOOD buy!!!

Lots of features
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using this watch consistently for the past several weeks, it has performed very well, has decent battery life as I can usually go 3 or 4 days between charging, and the watch charges quickly as well. This watch has a plethora of features and I feel like I've only scratched the surface of what this unit can do.

Great easy to use smart watch
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a watch with a fitness tracker and GPS. This watch also connects with my phone and provide notifications of calls and texts. I'm finding that I miss fewer calls and am less distracted (or at least for a shorter duration) by texts. The GPS and fitness tracker are easy to use and the watch does not look too much like a smart watch when using the analog face.

nice smartwatch
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a nice smartwatch. I have only had it a month but have been impressed with the battery life, especially when the screen is locked. I have not gotten to use it for exercises except for walking. It has taken some time to get a hang of the app and how to use it, but is fairly easy to figure out.

Comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Step counting is lower than Fitbit ionic, though I'm not certain which is more accurate. Doesn't automatically track long walks as exercise as well as ionic. Lighter and much more comfortable. Time will tell which is more reliable. Ionic broke as soon as warranty was done, so I certainly can't recommend it.

Does everything as advertised!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have the Samsung Galaxy watch and love it...however at this point there’s no good golf gps apps available for it. So, I purchased the vivoactive 3 mostly because I believe Garmin has one if not the best stand alone golf apps there is. It’s a comfortable, lightweight watch with many other great options besides just the golf. So far I really like it!

Solid watch and contender to other options
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a pretty solid watch with a lot to offer for the price. I managed to price match this so it was a much better deal. The biggest drawback to this watch is not having wireless charging and a proprietary charging cable. If you lose or the cable breaks, you're forced to buy a new one.

I use the walking app & the entire CONNECT software to improve my health &it is paying off big time. I am considering getting another for my wife & my mother! Ease of use is awesome, took a little time to get used to the operation- but it's solid!

Great Watch
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this watch. It has many of the same features with my Fitbit. I am hoping it will not die as soon as the warranty is up. I love the many other features: stress, heart rate, move reminders and many other features which I am choosing not to activate. Really enjoying my purchase!!!
