vívoactive® 6 Health and Fitness GPS Smartwatch - AMOLED Display, Up to 11 Days Battery, Metallic Jasper Green with Matching Band

Great watch! It doesn't even need to have the app installed or be synced with a phone to use the most essential features. It adjusts the time with its built-in GPS (which should be basic, but some other watches are unable to do), measures time and distance well (doesn't need your mobile for it), and displays a small map of your walk/run at the end of the activity. It is lightweight, well-built, looks good, and is neither too small nor too big—comfortable and a good fit. It's easy to use. So far, so good. Also, the display is easy to read even in direct sunlight. Last but not least, the battery life is just awesome. 1 week without worrying about charging it (in my case, in a scenario of medium to low use, only during activity, with at least 1h of daily use).

This is my first Garmin. I was a FitBit user and had four of them in 10 years. Last one was a Charge 6, which I loved, but I noticed the lifespan getting shorter with each device, and finally decided to ditch FitBit since it's become a google product. My first thought was to go to Apple Watch since I have an iPhone and other Apple devices. But after doing some research and seeing Vivoactive 6's battery life, price, and all the fitness tracking features that are important to me (as someone getting back into running in my 50s and also an avid hiker, walker, and occasional elliptical user), it seemed like a great choice. And it is! I've been wearing and using this watch 24/7 (except showering) for 3 weeks and love it. It's an awesome upgrade from the FitBit. It does all that my FitBit did and SO much more. It did take some time for me to figure out all the functions and settings, but I took my time and learned a few each day. During that process I found out how customizable this watch's screen and menus are - from color choices, to adding and removing features (you can just as easily get them back if you change your mind), to which features/menus you like to have readily accessible. You can even arrange them in the order you like best. On top of all the useful fitness stats and sensors (too many to list individually!), it shows the weather (current conditions, and forecast), has an old-school calculator (remember the calculator watches of the 80s?? me ✋🏼🤓), a nifty flashlight function with 3 levels of brightness, and my personal favorite - the compass, which doesn't need to be calibrated. It's accurate, and works independent of your phone. Very handy to have when I'm hiking. I wish it had an altimeter (available on some of Garmin's higher level smartwatches), but at this price point I do realize I can't have everything. There are many other functions with this watch - these are just the ones I find pretty useful to have, literally, on hand. For reference my wrist circumference is 6 inches. Highly recommend this watch if you want a quality and functional smartwatch where the emphasis is on fitness/health/workout tracking and stats, at a reasonable price.

I haven't had my Garmin vivoactive 6 smart watch for very long, but the app is easy to use to set up the watch. I am still learning how to use big portions of it. I like the way it tells time, keeps track of steps, and reminds you to move when you have been sitting a while. I also love how this information is displayed on the watch face. It has so many features that I haven't explored yet. It also has a health checkup that you can do and can be saved to the app. It lists activities and you can keep track of outside walks by mapping and recording where you go. You can also set up an emergency number for you to call if you need help. I think the watch is great and I enjoy using it. The app is amazing and you can pick and chose what you want. There is also a way to share your information with others if you choose too.

I bought this for two reasons 1) I got an Instinct 3 for my boyfriend and was immediately 1,000% jealous haha. He's an engineer and definitely benefits from the more rugged vibe/practical features like flashlight, meanwhile the Vivoactive is perfect for someone seeking a sleek, everyday fitness tracker/watch and not necessarily going to be putting it through punishment on the daily. 2) Recently switched from iPhone to Android, and was looking for a watch more focused on fitness, as someone who's very active and focused on health. This watch is PERFECT for that!! The battery lasts SO LONG. Gone are the days of charging my watch every night, I typically give it some juice once a week. This fact alone makes it so much easier to wear consistently so I can have more accurate data. There is so much utility and value in this watch. I would recommend a screen protector if you work with your hands and scratches peeve you! I have a simple film one and it's perfect for slamming my mitts around while keeping my investment safe haha.

I had this for about a month and then then Venu 4 was released and I returned this one. But it was excellent while I had it. Loved the battery life. The heart and sleep monitor are some of my favorite features. It seems to sync pretty good, actually syncs better than the Venu but that's okay. A little pricey though ngl.

EDIT: The music app seems to have been fixed recently. After having the watch for a few months and the music app working, Im very happy. The battery is still lasting about a week per charge. ORIGINAL: I've had this watch for almost 2 months. The battery life is great, I forgot my charger on vacation and the watch lasted 7 days without changing my usage. My biggest issue is with using the music/Spotify app; it has crashed every time Ive tried to use it, which is disappointing. Being able to listen to downloaded music while exercising without having to worry about my phone was a selling point for me. I've done lots of troubleshooting and have found others having the same unresolved issue online. Otherwise I like the watch. The menus are customizable so its easy to get what you want out of it. The GPS seems very accurate and easy to use. It is overall comfortable and small enough to not be overwhelming.

Tolle Uhr mit vielen guten Funktionen und Übersichten. Der Akku hält auch sehr lange. Wirklich empfehlenswert

estoy satisfecho con el producto. destinado para el uso diario, pulsaciones, actividades, conectado a Garmin Connect, sueño, calorías, etc. para un usuario básico es ideal. la pantalla amoled se ve muy bien. y para recibir notificaciones. a tener en cuenta, para usuarios más avanzados. este modelo no cuenta con altímetro barométrico. no cuenta pisos. al no contar con altímetro, el desnivel, en actividades tipo ciclismo lo calcula en función de la posición gps. por lo que no se le puede exigir mucha precisión en ese aspecto. si para tí es importante que cuente los pisos subidos/bajados diarios o contar con un desnivel acumulado preciso, éste no es tu modelo. puedes optar por la serie Fenix. el modelo Venu 4 de Garmin, muy similar al vivoactive en funciones (pero más caro) sí que cuenta con altímetro barométrico y además el visel es de acero inoxidable. otro detalle. el cargador. es un cable propietario de garmin. el extremo que va al cargador, es de tipo usb C. necesitarás un cargador que admita usb C o un ordenador que tenga esa entrada.

Es mi primer reloj inteligente y estoy bastante satisfecho con las funciones que presenta. Quise invertir en una opción no de máximo costo pero que fuera de Garmin, porque me da confianza y tiene buena reputación para seguimiento fitness y salud, que es para el fin que lo elegí. Anteriormente compré un monitor muy top, de otra marca y quedó subutilizado. En este reloj, estoy descubriendo las funciones versátiles que tiene y me ayuda a recibir notificaciones del teléfono y para muchas actividades, como bicicleta, caminata, en fuerzan quizá necesite un monitor cardíaco, pero para lo básico y un poco más, me parece super.

Ich habe mir vor kurzem die Garmin vívoactive 6 (42mm) gekauft und nutze sie jetzt regelmäßig im Alltag und beim Sport. Insgesamt bin ich wirklich sehr zufrieden, weil sie viele Funktionen bietet und dabei angenehm unauffällig am Handgelenk sitzt. ✅ Was mir besonders gefällt Akkulaufzeit: Die Akkulaufzeit ist für eine Smartwatch wirklich beeindruckend. Bei normaler Nutzung hält sie bei mir mindestens 10 Tage, was ein riesiger Vorteil gegenüber vielen anderen Modellen ist. Viele Sportmodi: Die Uhr bietet eine große Auswahl an verschiedenen Sportarten und Trainingsmodi. Egal ob Laufen, Fitnessstudio oder Radfahren – alles ist direkt integriert. Tragekomfort: Sie ist sehr leicht, dünn und angenehm zu tragen, auch über längere Zeit oder beim Schlafen. Musikspeicher & Bluetooth: Besonders praktisch finde ich, dass man Musik direkt auf der Uhr speichern kann. Die Verbindung mit AirPods und anderen Bluetooth-Kopfhörern klappt problemlos, was perfekt für Sport ohne Handy ist. Display & Bedienung: Das Display ist sehr gut ablesbar und lässt sich einfach bedienen. Auch draußen funktioniert es zuverlässig. ❗ Kleiner Minuspunkt Leider besitzt die vívoactive 6 kein Barometer, wodurch bestimmte Funktionen wie ein richtiger Wandermodus bzw. Höhenmeter-Tracking fehlen. Für Wanderer oder Bergsportler könnte das ein Nachteil sein. 📌 Fazit Insgesamt ist die Garmin vívoactive 6 eine sehr gelungene Smartwatch mit starker Akkulaufzeit, vielen Sportfunktionen und hohem Komfort. Wer vor allem Fitness und Alltag tracken möchte, bekommt hier ein tolles Gesamtpaket – nur für intensives Wandern fehlen ein paar Outdoor-Sensoren.

Good buy! Gives me a much better view of my health metrics for every tennis game.
