    My dad loves his watch! He uses it mainly for working out and tracking his sleep, but you can still see regular phone notifications. 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.

    The strap it comes with is super uncomfortable and the screen is super scratch-prone. Getting a cheap cover and strap fixed that issue.

    So far I like this. No paid subscription required. Bought this to track my heart rate and sleep quality. I like that the clock faces can be tailored or changed. I also use this to check for notifications on my phone. Many options are available that I have not fully explored. A feature to track your movements is available but not required to activate. Yes, this is the same Garmin brand that makes the GPS navigator. For you techies, a few open source programs are in use of this device. The charging cable is USB-C with a specific connector to the watch on the other end. I have a cheaper brand that I barely used. I will reevaluate the other brand to see if I can utilize it while the Garmin watch is charging. Like anything with a battery, it will drain the more use it gets. So far every 4 days on average since I use the alarm, check HR, look at notifications, workout programs and even to check the time and date.

    I really like my new watch so far. I'm still getting used to it but so far so good. The sleep tracking seems to be pretty accurate. I do wish there was an even smaller wrist band option because my wrist is really tiny, and the strap sticks out too much for my liking.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Great watch has all the features you need and none of the features you don't. Wanted something more simplistic to track my fitness but also so I wasn't on my phone or watch all the time and this has worked perfectly for that gives me all of the fitness and steps tracking information that I want as a elementary teacher but doesn't give me a whole bunch of useless stuff that I don't need like my Apple watch did

    I got this Garmin as a replacement for my Apple Watch. I had been debating switching to a Garmin for a while and finally decided to go for it. It’s AMAZING. Great price, not too bulky, the battery life is incredible and it charges unbelievably quick. It does everything that the Apple Watch does, only better imo. The sleep tracker is my favorite feature. The only con is that you can’t respond to texts or take phone calls on the watch like you can with the Apple Watch, however, I don’t think that should be a requirement when shopping for a health device. The Apple Watch is a smart watch with fitness/health features. The Garmin is a fitness/health watch with smart features. That’s the best way to decide what will fit best with your lifestyle.
