    The screen is crisp and sharp. It's really responsive, even with wet or sweaty fingers and the physical buttons are really nice. Battery lasts a properly long time, don't remember when I charged it last-type long time. It's awesome.

    I recently switched from an Apple Watch to my garmin and I love. The battery life top notch, all the extra health benefits amazing, over all I couldn’t recommend this watch enough. Being able to be in control of my health more has been on the front focus of my brain lately and with the peace of mind I get from my garmin has been amazing. All with the added benefits of being able to stay connected to my phone. But it has also helped me disconnect as well. Also garmin customer service is truly amazing. They are all so kind and so helpful.

    Best watch I’ve owned. I’ve had multiple watches like the fruit watch and some other lesser known smart watches. But this garmin watch blows them out of the water. Battery life is top tier. I get 12 days on a single charge. And the health tracking paired with the garmin app has been the best I’ve ever used. Highly recommend this watch.

    Switching from Apple Watch Ultra 1 mainly for the battery life. Its more comfortable to sleep with and i switched the plastic band for a nylon band and to help with comfortability. I enjoy the activity reminders and the animations for those activities. Great introductory watch for non-hard core athletes. I’ve had it for a little over a month and at first i was having issues with the weather updating and the phone pinging functionality, saying the watch wasn’t connected to the phone (iphone 14 Pro Max) and would only work if i had the Garmin Connect app open. Not sure what changed but now, I’m no longer having that issue.

    Bought as a gift for my wife. She is very happy with it, though has only used it for a couple weeks, so she's still learning all the features and haven't gauged durability, but purchased for the onboard GPS tracking and versatile activity monitoring covering her activities. Stated battery lifetime is impressive, much longer than she needs, though she's not tried to push the limit.

    I like the thin design of the bezel. The watch band could be less standard/ cheap looking. All the data information seems accurate. Battery life so far gives me at least 7 days of constant use.

    What a huge upgrade from Apple Watch! I was a long time Apple Watch user, but I decided to switch to Garmin due to the accuracy, battery life and disconnection from my phone! I haven’t charged the watch in 11 days and it’s absolutely amazing!

    I am currently training for a Hyrox race and wanted something to track my pace- this watch was perfect for that! I used to use the Whoop but didn't love it was a monthly subscription. This basically does everything that Whoop does plus more without the monthly cost. Highly recommend.

    I have never owned a Garmin watch before and I am enjoying this Vivoactive 6 GPS Smartwatch. It performs all of the functions I need it to. It was also awesome that it synced with my emails and texts without any difficulty. I would definitely recommend Garmin watches. I am very pleased with my new Garmin Vivoactive 6 GPS Smartwatch.

    The wifey wanted to upgrade from her Apple Watch n I brought her to look at the Garmin watches n she was sold, she loves all the training features and long battery life. She was debating between the Vivoactive 6, Lily 2 n Apple Watch n ultimately landed on the Vivoactive 6. It was going to go under the tree until Christmas but she just couldn’t wait…

    Perfect For What I Need

    Such a fan of this watch! I admittedly don't use alllll the bells and whistles it comes with, but that is why I got the "simplest" one. The battery lasts about 1.5-2 weeks and that is with me wearing it constantly. I do wish you could customize the faces a little more but honestly that is my only complaint.

    This watch is great, it's my first venture into garmin wearables and i am very impressed. I can't wait to start using the gps functions when i hike. So far, this watch is great! The sleep tracker has so much information, I'm not sure where to start!

    The Vivoactive 6 is one of the best general smart watches available today. The only thing that I'be used that's subjectively "better" is the Garmin Fenix 7. The Vivoactive 6 performs about 90% as well as the Fenix 7, and it costs about 1/5th of what the 7 costs.
