Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the vívoactive 4 GPS Smartwatch's long battery life, which lasts up to 4 days, and its durability, which is more robust than an Apple Watch. They also appreciate the activity tracking feature and the onboard music storage. While some users wish it was smaller in size, overall, customers are pleased with the watch's screen, GPS tracking, and ease of use.

    I switched over to this watch after having an iwatch for two years. I just felt super board with the iwatch and wanted something a bit more versatile with multi-sport. So far so good! I'm excited to see what this watch does for tracking my sleep and stress points.

    I went back and forth between this consumer watch and the high end Fenix series. Made the switch after a few years with Fitbit and and as a casual athlete, this thing is head and shoulders above. The watch is easy to use and the tracking is unmatched. The Garmin Connect app lets you dive deep into your stats and if you access it online it's even better! The screen quality is definitely a bit of a downgrade from even the OG Fitbit Versa, but after a few days I didn't notice anymore - the quality isn't poor, but it's definitely not an Apple Watch or Fitbit screen. If you're looking for a watch as a casual athlete that has some smart features, you won't regret this one.

    Very good functions and comfortable band. A bit hard to read the data and takes a bit to get used to the menu's and applications stages. Has held up thru multiple swim and dive sessions.

    Improved design and function from previous versions. Big + is it seems that Garmin has improved HR monitoring. More accurate than previous version. Nice appearance with slight improvement in screen and more solid band. This watch line is nice for its' focus on activity and health tracking, not compromising strengths for smart watch features.

    Love the overall build quality and responsiveness of this device. Especially when compared to other brands. However, I miss the Google experience and have been underwhelmed by the Garmin software experience. While I do get good data points from watch to the phone app (maybe even a bit busy with the amount of data) I cannot easily share this data with other tools and apps. So if I am wearing my watch but I don't have my phone during a workout, the watch will push the data to the Garmin app, but that data will not exist on my Google Fit data... and vice versa.
