Comfortable, lightweight, long battery life. Nice not to need a data plan for all the features. Golf app works great and my runs are linked to MapMyRun automatically. Love this watch.

Got this for my husband. He loves it. Only thing is the display isn't super bright. Loves tracking golf on it, running, walking etc. Really is waterproof, no issues when swimming or taking showers. Really great item.

I like it at first but you need a strap for your heart rate, so if you dont like to use it, dont buy it

I purchased this because it seemed a good replacement for my basis peak that was recalled. It seemed to have all the features and functions from the description so I ordered it. Unfortunately I read the QA after it was shipped so I was unable to cancel the order. The problem I had with this device is that you needed to where a heart rate monitor purchased separately. Well all I want to do is where it and it collect the information; I do not want to purchase and where a another device to get my heart rate. As a result I returned this device and got the garmin vivoactive hr which I am perfectly happy with.

Thank you for your review, we understand you replaced the vívoactive with the vívoactive HR. This sounds like the right move, considering you needed/wanted wrist-based heart rate. Thank you for choosing Garmin. ~QKO

Doesn't have many options as newer "smart trackers/watches very easy to use and very accurate compared to other brands if you're looking for a basic activity tracker I highly recommend this one

I bought the Vivoactive so I would have easy access to my pace while training to run a marathon. It's easy to set up. It sync's with my phone and compliments the MapMyRun app. it's my new running buddy.

Originally Prichard Fitbit Blaze. But after two weeks I returned it for this watch. Simply put its just an overall better watch. The best part is that I can measure exact range on golf course. Not to mention its waterproof which is exactly what I was looking for.

I have had several of these trackers, and have returned a lot of them, this has been overwhelming the best one I have purchased, battery life is great and and I love all the features it's has. Would love a workout feature on the app. But I'm sure it's on the way

I had worn a Samsung Gear for about 2 years and when it failed to recharge anymore, I wanted something more traditional. I initially purchased the Garmin Vivoactice, but returned it unopened the next day after reading the review on this Asus ZenWatch.
Garmin makes a good product, but I am not that much into activity and felt that the ZenWatch would suit my needs better. It has a few more options that I make use of. If I were more into sports and workouts, the Garmin would have been a better choice. I also wish Garmin would improve their app a bit more.

This has everything I want. But I just don't like the look on my arm. It's vain, I know, but the design seems lacking. I'm still thinking about going back to it despite that fact as it did everything it was supposed to and did it really well.
