Customer Ratings & Reviews

I switched from Fitbit to Garmin. The specs said the Garmin is Spotify capable but is a bit of a myth. You CANNOT use this watch for spotify without ear buds. This was a gift, so past the exchange window. This watch has so many functions, too many for me but im slowly learning how to delete what isnt needed. For a tech person, it might just be heaven though.

Love my new watch!! Way better than my Fitbit.. this was the first time owning a Garmin, so far I am very happy I chose this watch.. My favorite part is the batter life.

This watch holds a charge for many days, has a great GPS, dozens of activity trackers, and great for music, countdown timer, stopwatch, and multiple alarms. Even has a keyboard to answer text messages which easily come in from a connection with your phone. I have had this watch for over 10 years in its multiple versions and it's never failed me!!

It was everything and more. The stats you get from this watch is great.

I was a little bit more hopeful for this watch than my last one. I definitely looked forward to using it. I loved the interface and how it functions. It was very easy to set up and use. It's very intuitive. However, the things that I didn't like about it outweigh what I love about it. I found that my sleep record was wildly off. I would wake up 2 to 3 hours in the middle of the night and it did not see that as a wake time. I also found that the golf maps did not update as seamlessly as other brands. I was hoping that it would be a little bit more intuitive on that app as well. The golf part is definitely in need of work. There is no time indicated on it when you're in the golf mode and it has to be on all the time. This drains the battery significantly and while I do like a lot of the other features, it definitely needs some updates. The battery life is incredible and overall I do like this watch. I just feel like it is way more expensive than it should be for such basic features. The screen real estate is also not put to use. It looks like about a half an inch is lost on the screen real estate from the actual screen size. Why not use the entire thing?

Switched to Garmin from the apple watch series 8 and the health data is much more helpful and much more in depth than the data Apple gives. I love the circle form factor and thought it was too large for my wrist but ive gotten used to the size. If you are trying to change your lifestyle and be more active this watch is for you!

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.

This watch has done everything I wanted it to do. It has enough smartwatch features but has all the fitness aspect I wanted for workouts. I’m a rower and do a wide variety of workouts so this watch is perfect. Best of all the battery doesn’t need charging everyday!

Love how it tracks my steps accurately but also monitors my sleep this small watch does a lot more definitely recommend

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.

The battery last so long!!! That is enough to join garmin. This is more of a training watch than a smart watch but i still get notifications. There’s an app specific for the watch and the information on there is so easy to read

I’ve owned this watch for about a week now and it’s been nothing short of phenomenal, great UI and amazing statistics. I really love this watch

It is a great product I like it so far. I wanted it for running stats, golf, and music. It does all 3 of those well. Don't expect any crazy metrics its pretty baseline stuff but thats all I wanted it for. Good price for product.

Love this watch awesome it is a great first time fitness watch

I love this watch so far . I’m just trying to figure it out . It does what I need , sleep , working out cardio and some other things . I love if I’m hiking it will notify someone if I’m hurt and gives them my location . Very cool . Love it so far

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!

Got this for my hubby for his birthday. He absolutely loves it! It’s got lots of great features. It’s also a very sleek and stylish looking watch.

My vivoactive 5 battery would hold a charge so i upgraded to the 6. love my garmin watches

Really great watch especially for the price, does all I need and easy interface when you just want simple functions without thinking so hard. graphics and options really good. Good battery and look very nice

Fantastic upgrade for the Vivoactive 3. Ease of use, reliable and 2 week long battery life on 1 charge!
