Garmin Vivoactive HR - Black - L

The Walmart online purchase of the Garmin vivoactive was awesome. No issues during the checkout and easy to find all the information I was looking for the selection of the smartwatch that will satisfy the demand of my exercise routine! Five thumbs up for Walmart online purchasing web page.

I definitely recommend this to anyone that bikes and runs and wants to record their progress. As you run you can monitor your pace and heart rate and provides very accurately how far you have run. Notifies you when you have been stagnant for too long. Predicts the calories you've burned during a workout and throughout the day. The app for it syncs with MyFitnessPal which makes recording calories and diet so much easier. You can read messages from your phone if you are within distance.

I was looking for a fitness watch that I could use everyday at work (needed a second hand counter), track my steps, etc and replace my current running watch. This watch does all of this and more! Easy to use with the touch screen. Very personalizable. The connect app has a ton of colorful information to analyze. It is a little big one my female wrist but never feels odd or cumbersome. Be careful not to delete an app like I did. I couldn't figure out how to get it back so I reset the watch to get it back.

Got this watch $30 cheaper than anywhere else and it shipped and arrived all within 2 days. Great purchase overall

The best watch I ever have. I'm a cyclist and have it paired to my bike sensor and give me every single data I need and more. Long lasting battery charge. #sweepstakes

I love the vivosmart HR. It tracks sleep and heart rate very well and since is waterproof I can wear it in the shower. I basically only take it off to charge it. Some drawbacks though are that it has a hard time recognizing when I go up a flight of stairs and most exercises have to be manually activated on the watch. It's not hard to do it just takes a few seconds at the start and end of the exercise. I would recommend getting a screen protector for it just to keep it nice. I wear mine with the face on the inside of my wrist so it was important to protect it. They are pretty cheap and easy to put on.

I ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT I AM DOING 24/7/365. TRIED OTHER AND NOT HAPPY. THIS IS SO FAR. FOR ME THIS IS THE BEST.

Features work well and syncs well with my phone!

I've been wanting to get a fitness band for a while now and wasn't sure what to get. I know that Garmin is a great company, but there are so many options. This is almost a hybrid between a smart watch and a fitness band. It's an excellent fitness band and frees some ability to customize and uses blu tooth to send notifications from your phone. For me, it has motivated me to be more active throughout my day. It has also allowed me to leave my phone in my pocket a lot since if I want to see the time or see a notification that comes through I just look at my wrist. It's not the Apple Watch with all of the apps and the ability to respond to texts or answer calls directly through the watch. However, I'm ok with that. I can see them and decide if it's important enough to get out my phone and respond to. I have definitely not used this to its full potential yet, but I feel like I'm the three weeks that I have had it, this watch has been a great investment. As I use it more and more for workouts it will only increase the value to me. I am very happy with the Garmin Vivoactive HR. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I've been using the watch for about 2 years, primarily for cycling, but have used for running and swimming. I utilize Strava interfaces to capture my statistics over time. The interface works well. While it does many things well, I have been disappointed with its tracking of elevations. I ride with friends using Garmin bike mount trackers. There is an alarming difference between their climb and decent tracking and my wearable. This need to be improved. Secondarily, I have noticed gaps in heart rate tracking, which may have been fixed with a software update, but this is speculation on my part. Again, for a broad set of options, this was the best I could find at the time. No regrets and nothing is perfect. I have certainly gotten my money out of this device.
