    …and it’s been the best thing i’ve ever did the battery life lasts more than a week without charging. my apple watch i’d have to charge every day which it was very annoying… also i’ve heard the accuracy of running mileage of garmin is superior than apple so i’ll be sticking with garmin for now. I’ll update this review in a couple months how things going:)

    Battery lasts forever! A little tricky getting it figured out after having an Apple Watch but the set up was super simple! So far love the accuracy!

    Love the Garmin watch. I use to have a Fitbit, and this is so much better than a Fitbit. Also, it was on sale for $50 off. It is working so well. It is everything that a Garmin Watch should be. It has a very long battery life and all the functions that I want. Not disappointed. Great purchase.

    I bought this Garmin for my wife. She loves the color and stylishness of it. After familiarizing myself with it, I think this will be fantastic for fitness. It is intuitive and the charge lasts good. I wear a Samsung 7 and I think this compares favorably.

    Got this back in August for my birthday and I love it. HR, steps, etc. so far have been pretty accurate. Love being able to change face, bands, and screen protector. Haven't tried in water yet, just don't want to take a chance.

    Durable, great battery, excellent activity and step tracking to monitor fitness and improvement. The display is a huge step up over earlier vivoactive models as well.

    Loved this watch from the get go. Its become what i wear every day, all day. Its extremely comfortable and love all of the different health features that it comes with. The garmin app has set me up with a solid strength training plan and being able to go threw the workout with just my watch on is awesome.

    I love this watch! Even with all the notifications i receive on this watch, it still lasts about 10 days before it needs charged. I've had this watch for almost a year now, and my fitbits previous to this watch never lasted this long.

    It seems to work ok. There aren't a lot of options for fitness trackers that are simple, yet somewhat reliable. I have liked all of my Garmin watches, but none of them last very long. Maybe 3 or 4 years if I'm lucky. I do like that they don't currently charge extra to use the app. I think other brands have a subscription to view your personal data. I have to reluctantly admit that it is fun to see my texts on my watch. Took some getting used to, but I think it is a good thing. Strange, but oddly helpful. I also am amazed that I was able to put a picture of my puppy on my watch face.

    This is the best fitness tracker I have ever owned. I was a dedicated fitbit user, but they all quit working after a year. This Garmin is the most simple, useful tracker ever.

    I was getting over my Apple Watch and I’m glad I went with this one. Besides it being very cute it calculates your steps more accurately. And the battery life is amazing I could go a week without having to charge it.

    10/10, very accurate. It takes a week to completely calibrate your body. All the features are the best and you can even link your watch to fitness apps on you phone( my fitnesspal).

    Excellent replacement for the vivoactice 2. The battery life is excellent, it has only been charged once in 5 days. So far we have only had it since Christmas, so 5 days. He only misses the watch face from his previous Garmin.
