Versatile & Lightweight

published

I bought the Garmin for my 12year old daughter when she started high school.
She loves it & very rarely takes it off. It is waterproof and comes in different colours.
It is stylish and easy to wear. She mostly loves that she can calculate her steps and likes achieving her goal.

Great product - user friendly - my son loves it

published

Bought this for my 10 year old son, he wears it everyday & has become so much more active counting his steps & trying to achieve his goal. User friendly with just enough functions for a child to use.
Looks good, not too flashy which is perfect, at the price of $99 I couldn't ask for anything better.

Reasonable, could be better

published

I bought this as I wasn't keen on spending huge $ on a sports watch. Bit disappointed now. It was okay, but I question if it is correct as it doesn't seem as accurate as my old Fit Bit. (Fit bit band broke and couldn't be replaced). But the band can be replaced which is a win. Wouldn't buy it again.

It's perfect if it comes in a smaller wrist band

published

I've had a Garmin Vivofit 1 and 2 and a Vivosmart so I'm a big fan of the Garmin fitness products. They are reliable and simple to use. May not be the trendiest look but definitely lasts. Vivofit 3 like it's the other vivofit series is basic but consistent. It measures steps and comes in 365 days battery life (and also backlit light). The only problem I have is that I have a small wrist and their band only comes in one size ... but I guess that's not really a deal breaker as you can buy a smaller band from eBay less than $5. Overall it's a great fitness tracker that delivers.

Garmin Vivosmart

published

Bought one in December 2016. I find this gadget to motivate me more in the gym. This is because of its functional capability and colourful style! Just the right one for me! It shows my vital signs, number of steps, and its tourquoise colour, my favourite, helps refresh my vision every time I look at it!

My second Garmin

published

This is my second Garmin. First one was the Garmin 1 and unfortunately it died for some reason. lasted about 1.3years. I was happy with it so decided to get the Garmin 3 with a 2 year warranty. It is not the best looking design but you don't have to charge it and it's waterproof. Basically i never take it off. I only use it for time and to count steps but it does also count calories and has a stop watch and beeps at you when you need to move which is good if you have an office job.

Love this thing!!

published

I love this thing!! Best thing ever - love the battery life and it's accuracy. Has really motivated me and i like the way you can either get it to increase your target or have it remain static. My only complaint would be that the distance travelled doesn't seem to be that accurate.

I loved my vivofit 3- have now had 2. Every thing well for a year in both watches till battery ran out. Replaced battery- went well for 6 weeks and then watch stopped working. First watch did the same things. Is this a normal problem?
