vivoactive 3

Updated July 2019 after 4 months of use - typically training 8+ times a week across multiple sports, including approx. 50km to 60km of running per week: I have long been a loyal user of running watches produced by Garmin and my most recent (and much loved) watch is this Garmin Vivo Active 3. I have also road tested the Polar Vantage M, also being a Multisport watch, is a good side by side competitor for the Vivo Active so in this review I also compare the Vivo Active 3 to this watch. Set Up: - You can set up the watch with or without the Garmin App. It is recommended to use the app and therefore I did (I also love analyising my fitness data so a watch which isn’t syncing with an app is no fun for me). - The watch was easy to set up and both the watch and App were intuitive to use. Charging - The watch was ready to charge on arrival. It comes with a USB charger (note: no mains plug, you will either need to charge via a laptop or a mains to USB charger). The watch attaches to the charger via an each magnetic connection. - The watch went from out of box to being 100% charged in less than 1 hour (via mains). - The charger is a small clip in which attaches to the back of the watch. Aesthetics, general wearability and day to day use - The Garmin looks very good on my wrist, it is a nice small size for day to day wear (it is slightly smaller than the Polar Vantage M) - It is light and as a result it was easy to forget I was wearing it. - The strap is soft and pliable (other running watches such as the Polar watches have quite stiff straps). Ease of Operation: - The watch is operated largely by touch screen (there is only one button on the side of the watch). I really like the intuitive and easy to use touch screen ability – it feels modern and up to date but more importantly it is very quick to navigate. - To start training you select the button on the device and then scroll to find the activity you want to start. You can set the watch up so your most frequently used (or favorite) activities are listed up front for a quick start. There are many pre-programmed activities but I have mainly used the running (outdoors), treadmill running, indoor cycling and strength training activities. - The activity is paused by pressing the same button and then the touch screen gives end and save options. GPS log on - There is nothing more frustrating then your watch taking a long time to log onto the GPS signal when you just want to start running, I was concerned about this having read other reviews of this watch. - I had no siginifcant issues with the GPS link up. I have used the watch in a small town, a city, at the start of many races and in the countryside when trail running and the GPS log on was adequate in all locations (usually almost immediate but on rare and more frustrating occasions up to 1 minute). - It is worth noting that the Polar watch I have road tested often found GPS signal before the Garmin. Activities/Running/Distance Accuracy/GPS - As a runner this is what is most important to me. - The outdoor running accuracy appears to be incredibly good. It has matched (with very small tolerances) with official race measured distances in anything from 5km to 30km races. - On set up I selected automatic pause so when I stop running, for example at traffic lights, the device automatically pauses and then restarts tracking once I am running again. This feature worked well. - I like the strength training rep counter although I don’t always use it (unless I am wanting to deliberately slow down my work rate) Data screens - Along side the accuracy of data the availability of data whilst running is important to me. - Each data screen can hold 4 pieces of data (e.g. pace, distance, time etc.). - You can customise what data you have via the app. - The data was easy to see whilst running and gave me the information I needed to monitor and improve my performance. Display - The display is graphics are not amazing but they didn’t interfere with my enjoyment of the watch. - I really enjoy the fact that you can customise what data you have on your standard watch screen. I have mine set up to show digital time, date and step count. Interaction with other devices and apps - In common with all runners I know I like to be able to analyse my running data and look at details such as my heart rate, pace and so on over the course of a run. - The Garmin uses the Garmin Connect app to do this. The watch is quick to syncronise and does this itself after activities. It can also be forced via the app. - The have my Garmin App (and therefore the watch data) also syncronised to MyFitnessPal so that my calories burnt are sent over to MFP and calories consumed are sent from MFP to the Garmin (watch and app). As a training aide - Being able to pre-program workouts before setting off makes for much easier interval training. - I use the Garmin to write a training plan with specific work-outs (e.g. interval training) and these then become available in the watch on syncing the two together. - The data you get on the watch at the end of the run is not that extensive (the Polar watch may be better for you if you want this on the watch) but the data in the app is extensive and useful for a post race or run postmortem. Battery life - The battery life on the Garmin is very good, but outperformed by the Polar when both had the same features engaged (e.g. continuous heart rate monitoring). Garmin App - The Garmin Connect App is what takes this watch from a very good 4* product to a 5* watch for me. - It is a real life tracker. I track my weight (and my BMI which is automatically tracks), my steps, my menstrual cycle, my calories in (and out, via a link up with MFP), I analyse my run and race results, set and monitor step (and other activity) goals – I must look at the App on average 10 times per day. - The App is easy to use, intuitive and I honestly believe it has contributed to me developing an even healthier lifestyle. - The app is the reason why I can’t see myself moving away from Garmin when I need my next running watch/activity tracker. Other features - The ‘sleep’ feature isn’t very accurate as it seems to think I’m asleep from the minute I get into bed and start reading until I get up in the morning. All sleep trackers I have tried do however tend to have the same issue. - I had the watch paired with my phone all day via the Garmin Connect app so I could receive message etc. notifications – a useful function but it does drain the battery more quickly In summary the Garmin Vivo Active 3 is an amazing watch supported by a brilliant app and I would not hesitate to recommend it. Update May 2020: This watch is over a year old now. It is still being worn daily 24/7 (except when being recharged) and the battery life is still as good as it was when new and functioning fine with no damage and even the strap shows only very minor physical wear and tear. Update 21 July 2020: still being used daily. The battery will last 4-5 days without charge at a push if not using the sports activities. If so count on recharge every 1-2 days. Under light usage, expect to charge daily for about 10-20mins. Getting up and having a shower is ideal time if you wear it overnight for sleep tracking.

This is a great fitness watch with basic smartphone notifications. I've tried android wear but the battery life is two days at best right now and the amount of notifications is annoying. I found myself turning off most of them and just had text, what's app, reminders and alarms. And vivoactive offers these and any other app you want on your wrist. Unlike android wear you can't reply with a keyboard or voice dictation but again I found myself reaching for my phone more often than not to action things on android wear so this again isn't any different. I find (after over 4 weeks of use) that I average 4-5 days of battery life between charges. It take approx 1hr to fully charge too. The screen is great, especially in bright light or sunlight. The transflective display actually becomes clearer the brighter the light in the room or outside is. This is great as my previous wearable devices were lcd screens and out in bright sunlight there were hard to view. The watching is super comfortable to wear. It's so light you barely feel it on. I've not change he'd the staple even though it's easy to find any replacement you want due to the generic quick release system and size. The stock strap is again super comfortable and the silicon is nice for sports wear as it won't absorb the sweat like a leather alternative would. Sports tracking is great, I do a mix of strength and cardio exercises. No it's not as precise as a chest strap but it's surprisingly not that far off. Strength training work is where I find the gap between chest strap and wrist appears more. When out for a jog/run I find it much more accurate. I don't do HIIT training and it's sudden spikes where wrist tracking is often less precise. That's a problem with wrist based tracking in general due to the location being further to the extremities from my understanding. And the flexing with strength training work and different bloody circulation within the muscles all has an affect on it. But overall the results seemed to even out about the same as the polar strap I have by then end of the workouts. So 👍🏻 The Garmin companion app and website are great. There is an absolute shed load of data to digest after training but it's all great for understanding how your performance is changing. Some reviewers have complained saying there is too much data but more data allows for more insight. It's one of the reasons I swapped to Garmin. My old ms bans 2 used to give more data than the polar M600 but the band wasn't as accurate at tracking workouts or very comfortable. Garmins app also links brilliantly with MFP unlike anything else I've used before. It's so good I find I use it's calorie tracking interface more and just log my food in MFP. Previously I used to get all my exercise data into MFP to the work out the calories. Garmin connect makes its clearer and easier. I could bang on more but ultimately I'm super happy with my device and can't recommend it enough

I don’t usually write reviews but I read loads before buying this watch (Vívoactive 3) used from Amazon, so I thought I’d make the effort as lots of the reviews I read were misleading and unhelpful - personal disappointments about specific and probably individual niggles rather than an objective or helpful view on the watch. First off, the VA3 is, in my view, a sports watch. It does some smart watch stuff but if you want to buy coffee with it or send text messages then buy an Apple Watch (or a phone!) The VA3 tracks your heart rate (all day and all night), tells you where you are (GPS), lets you know when your phone is ringing, it’s waterproof, toughened, comfortable and the battery lasts 5/6 days. It is easy to use, if you read the instructions, pairs with your phone/iPad/computer and chest strap (if you need to - more about that later) and the Garmin Connect app breaks it all down into sensible metrics with stacks of detail. I am a normal, middle aged bloke and I’m serious but not obsessive about phys. I like wearing an HRM as it motivates me, lets me see if I’m getting better or not or just kidding myself and I find it interesting. Every now and then I try to train in heart rate zones but for me, it is more the info I like having. I run 5km with my dogs 5 times a week and lift weights/circuit train 5 days a week. I also swim probably once a week (more in summer) about 1.5km and I surf and snowboard. I’ve worn HRMs for all activities and have tried several types with varying degrees of success. I have had a Vivosmart, a Vivoactive (the old square one) a Mio, a Polar, a Fenix 3 and a Suunto. Bottom line - for me, the VA3 is by far the best all rounder for a “normal” person. The watch is “normal” sized, I’m not particularly big or small and have average sized wrists (I think). The VA3 looks right. It’s not flashy or eye-catching, the shape and strap are just there; meaning it doesn’t scream “look at me, I have this new thing...” and it’s not ugly or weird-looking. You can wear it to work and people won’t think you’re trying too hard or wonder why you have an electronic tag on your hand. It means you don’t have to wear a “band” type thing on your other wrist to your watch and it tells the time/date/day like wot a normal watch does. You don’t have to take it off in the shower (if you’re weird and enjoy having mouldy wrists - why would you not take your watch off in the shower!?) or worry about it getting wet in the rain/pool. So it looks fine and does everything you want when you aren’t wearing your trainers. Running/cycling/snowboarding/riding/surfing - all good. It picks up GPS in seconds and tracks heart rate and location as accurately as any other device, give or take. I know some other reviewers have had bad experiences but I’d guess these are one-offs rather than the norm. It’s a piece of tech kit and they aren’t all perfect: some people have had crappy iPhones and other people love them. Having had Garmin gear before and other brands I would say the chances of being disappointed by Garmin are much less than any other brand. So, assuming you don’t get a wonky item, you’ll have a machine that gives accurate readings (if you use it right) that you can then analyse on your phone sat on the loo to your heart’s content whilst your other half watches Top Gear/Pointless on telly. So for cardio, indoors or out, the VA3 is spot on. Every bit as good as the £500 Fenix, better in terms of consistency in fact (again, in my experience). HOWEVER... you need to read the instruction manual. If you don’t set the watch up properly, put it on properly, synch it properly then guess what? It doesn’t work properly! Take an hour to get it doing things the way you understand and place it on your wrist in the right place above the wrist bone. Do all that and you’ll get the best from the watch which means you’ll get the best from the available wrist-based HRM/GPS sports watches. Where it doesn’t work for me is in the gym. But then, no wrist-based HRM has yet: the technology just isn’t there yet no matter how much cash you throw at it (and I threw a LOT of cash at a Fenix!) it may just be me, though there is a theme of similar disappointments, but when you do an exercise where your wrists are bent, under stress or raised then the blood pumping through them (that the HRM detects) isn’t easily detected. Example: I do a 10 minute upper body circuit with virtually no rests, just 3x30 second breaks to avoid a coronary, when I’m working the wrist HRM says 90 bpm (eh?) but when I rest (and my arms are dangling zombie-loose by my sides) it jumps to 170 bpm. The wrist thingy is thrown off by the blood flow to my hands caused by the exercises in question. It is the same with every wrist-based HRM. So in the gym I have a cheap Wahoo tickr chest strap, synced to the VA3 and guess what? The watch tells me I’m too old to be doing that exercise at 170/180 bpm. Same in the pool, if you want your heart rate when you’re swimming, get a chest strap. Personally, I hate the things (chest straps) and I’m convinced they create fat-sausages that everyone can see, and they get sweaty and gopping and they’re uncomfortable and I don’t like them so they’re stupid. But until the wrist tech gets better or an alternative is invented or I can have my heart relocated to my left wrist I’m stuck with the chest strap for the gym. It is what it is. I like my VA3. I’m not a pro athlete who trains 6 hours a day with probes in uncomfortable places and a nutritionist who keeps me on a knife edge of dietary collapse, I do a fair amount of phys because I enjoy it and it helps me not want to commit Steven King-esque acts of rage after a challenging day. If I miss a run, I don’t get stressed because I might drop a place in the Ottery St Mary 5km fun run but I do like to know my heart is still beating and it makes me feel unjustifiably self-riteous when I see a whole month of targets met, I get a pat on the head (well, wrist actually) from my watch and yes, I will have another slice of cheesecake thanks. It cost £140 off Amazon, arrived in a day and does exactly what it says it will. I like that. I wish I was more like my watch. If you’re a pro athlete, buy a £700 Fenix5 (and a chest strap). If you’re a fruit loop that has to have a watch that tells you the time on Mars, adjusts the central heating and has a coffee waiting for you when you pass every Starbucks (and you want everyone to know it), get an Apple Watch or a hat with a sign saying so. If you’re a regular type person who does plenty of exercise and likes something to look at when you’re skiving work in the loo - get a VA3. I hope my boss isn’t reading this...

Received my watch yesterday lunchtime to use in UK in conjunction with my Sony Xperia Xz2. Surprised how easy and quick it was to set up. Comes with over 50% battery. Turn on, open garmin Connect app on your phone and it syncs via Bluetooth immediately. Took me less than 20mins to set up everything as I wanted even including changing watch face. Preloaded apps OK and cover various activities and you can customise easily. I don't require half of the tracking apps so have removed from watch / quick menu to make access to relevant apps quicker. Hr very accurate as is the sleep pattern. Steps counter is also accurate although can have extra steps added to tracking pending what activity / movement you make nonetheless its still one of the most accurate and best tracking devices I've used. Notifications for calls, texts and WhatsApp come through OK BUT just make sure you have set them up on both your phone, in the garmin connect app and on the watch itself as they don't automatically set up and sync! Also you may need to adjust phone/watch settings to be able to get notifications all the time as default is set to certain times / activities. Value measurements are defaulted to US non UK standards / metric but they are simple to change either on the watch or via Connect app i.e temp in Fahrenheit not Celsius, kilometres instead of miles etc. Synching is easy via app and iqconnect store which has a number of additional apps, widgets and watch faces so you can customise your watch. These can be downloaded in app and are downloaded to watch when it syncs. The connect app also allows you to see breakdown of daily stats and is easy to use and interpret the data. Overall the Vívoactive 3 is perfect watch for fitness tracking and to receive notifications on the move without having to muck around with your phone. The design and lack of full smartwatch capabilities such as replying to notifications, answering calls on the watch and having speaker to talk or play music to some may seem uninspiring but at the end of the day it's foremost a fitness tracker with perks of a normal smartwatch which for me is ideal. The watch is comfortable and doesn't irritate skin like previous watches I've had. It is well sized, the screen is clear and you can adjust brightness to suit. You can also turn off setting which causes watch to light up on movement which can be annoying and battery drain. The straps seem sturdy enough and comfortable on the wrist. I had to charge battery last night as went down to 35% from 58% when started but this is because I was mucking around with the watch loads as only just received. From other reviews expect battery life to be at or very near to what Garmin states and improve once used more. Will update after few months with any changes

had the Vivioactive 3 for nearly a month now and have to say this Garmin is truly brilliant and I've not been as active as I'd liked to have been or as I have been in the past, I wear it all the time and often forget I'm wearing it and comparing it to others in same Category its the lightest so no surprise there, I'm looking forward to doing gym work outs as the downloaded workouts look great and gives instructions on how to do them if needed I really cant fault it and although I don't need to wear a chest HR strap I have the option for more detailed workouts particularly indoors but more so when running using it pay is spot on ideal works really well having alarms for different things works great timers and stop watch perfect not used the golf but plan to as its a great idea especially when doing a round on own, love this idea when it needs charging its really quick too or jst an hour and its pretty much charged from near empty, also great for doing ultras (over 24hrs) although you cant wear it whilst charging, a remote quick charge will give you another days worth of run no problem and the connection for charging is strong and firm (not flimsy/loose) love the average resting heart rate display (after wearing for a few days ie 3 ) the display is brilliant in sunlight and I got this after my Fitbit charge3 hr display died, so I no longer wear 2 types of timers as I only wore my garmin 630 when running, now I only use my Garmin vivoactive 3 as it gives me steps as well and constant HR and I pretty much only used Fitbit for steps/time/HR hence I no longer need it changeable wristbands a bonus too nice and simple to do no drama receiving texts.calls,instant messages, diary notifications and any others I choose to allow such as security cameras notifications this is brilliant the satnav navigation is useful when you leave your car in a car park in another town/city changing the watch faces is awesome too altho I like the digi white numbers that turn blue as to reach steps activity target and also has hr and day date on i could go on and on about how good this Garmin is but my final bit is I opted not for the music version as I can use mobile if needed and control it whilst running exercising as I always have mobile with me any way as an emergency if ever needed i'm thankful I got this in an Amazon sale and brand new as I was looking for a Fitbit HR4 due to my Fitbit HR3 stopping working and spotted the Vivoactive3 which after reading the write ups I'm really pleased and it comes with a 2 year guarantee :-) so I'm well pleased I wouldn't bother with a screen protector I did at 1st and it came off after a short while and the type of glass this Garmin is fitted with (Gorrilla3 I think) its pretty sturdy protection if you haven't gathered already I REALLY love this Garmin my favorite in the past was the Garmin 310XT due to battery life but although the Vivoactive is less using GPS its easy to recharge and the stats its produces are really spot on amazing for me anyway hope this review helps someone

I have upgraded from the first Vivoactive. I've had it for more than 2 years and was quite happy with it, after Garmin solved the initial problems. It seems this is a similar situation. Early adopters are really beta testers for these Garmin guys! I had to return the first Vivoactive 3 I bought (thanks Amazon for the great service!) because it was one of those units with the broken vibration motor. Basically you could not tell when the thing was vibrating. It was totally useless. The new one that Amazon sent me works fine in that sense. It is true that the vibration is less strong than that of the Vivoactive 1, but it is more than enough to feel the notifications and for waking me up, while not being noisy like the original Vivoactive. Regarding the battery I would say that without GPS use and normal daily volume of notifications it is good for at least 5-6 days. With GPS I think it lasts less than the 13 hours advertised. I played a round of golf in 3:30 hours and had the battery at 55%, having started at 100%. I have firmware version 2.70 updated from the initial 2.30 the watch came with. I have only used the watch for a little more than one week but the improvements over the first version are obvious. Some highlights for me: the heart rate monitor is more accurate than I expected when biking. Some others have reported much lower bpm than chest straps, but for me it is just 5 bpm less (155 vs. 160 peak bpm). I wear it quite tight above the wrist bone as recommended. The golf app is much more complete than that of the original Vivoactive (see manual for details if you are interested in this). The auto-detect stroke feature works also much better than I expected. Maybe I had low expectations, but I would say it detects at least 8 out of 10 strokes. I have also used the weight app for bodyweight and it is incredible how it detects the type of exercise (pull ups and push ups, doing alternate series of both...) and the number of repetitions. Pull ups where 100% accurate and for push ups it deviated just by 1 out of 15. Overall, for the moment, I think it is a great device. Perfect if you do many sports. I had some doubts about the design of the black-silver model, but I have to say in person looks much better than the pictures.

This is my second health monitor wristwatch. The first wristwatch was also a Garmin model but called a Vivosport and presented the now familiar 'slim & black' appearance to the World. The Vivoactive 3 has a different, circular appearance about 1.5" across, like that of most timepieces. Apart from recharging its battery every 5 or 6 days, there is nothing more to do. It is a quick charger. About 2hrs is all that is necessary using a social cable or dock (preferred). I found it useful to keep a few extra cables available in case one is misplaced or lost. Losing a cable is easily done but they are cheap to buy. I have worn the Vivoactive 3 more or less constantly since purchasing it and I recharge it when the battery charge falls below 30% (every 3 -4 days approximately) and preferably at night when I am least active. I have an Apple iPhone 7+/256 which I used in conjunction with the Vivoactive 3 and the technical readout of my health/performance is nothing short of exceptional. Monitoing of my pulse rate provides a huge amount of data, which is displayed graphically on my iPhone. Both Vivoactive 3 and iPhone update their operating software automatically. If I have one criticism of the Vivoactive 3 it is its control interface and how to set it up for ones personal needs. However, I could probably make this complaint of every health monitor wristwatch I have tried on. Many of the Vivoactive 3's display capabilities are still unfamiliar to me and I have to refer to its manual in order to change it. The Vivoactive 3 operates under touch control but therein lays another problem. I have found that the sleeves of my garments can rub against the touch screen, albeit lightly, and alter the settings of the Vivoactive 3. This happens often and can be annoying because it has to be reset to its original settings, which in my case often means referring to the manual. It can take quite some time to learn all the Vivoactive 3s operational capabilities. My Garmin VivoSport, my first health monitor wristwatch, was a very capable health monitor wristwatch too but it had one design flaw. Once the narrow, rubberised wristband becomes damaged, replacing it becomes either very difficult or impossible. This happened to my Vivosport and I replaced it with the Vivoactive 3, which has wristbands that can be replaced. The Vivoactive 3 has a larger circular display, which in my opinion represents a more natural and familiar interface to its owner. The Vivosport has a narrow, rectangular display. which requires a thin wristband and therein lys its weakness. The Vivoactive 3 is a very capable health monitor wristwatch and works well with the iPhone. It is expensive but subsequent models are slowly becoming cheaper as more people wear them. I expect it to have a long life. Recommended.

After much searching I have finally found a swim smart watch! I have had this about a month and a half. I swim twice a week and clock up around 2k per swim. This watch has correctly recorded my swims including stroke type, number of strokes, laps, distance, swolf and rests. It is easy to use, once you've had a chance to learn your way around it. Battery lasts around 5 days but is reduced much faster while I am swimming. The display is easy to read, even when it is not lit up. It synced easily with my Samsung S7. It seems to be fairly accurate counting my steps and measuring my heart rate. The sleep counter counts the hours in in bed but it does not seem to recognise the difference between sleeping and resting and adds it all in to hours slept. This doesn't bother me as my reason for getting the watch was for the swim app which I have found excellent. There are lots of Garmin apps and the watch face can be picked from hundreds of options. The watch is comfy to wear and the heart rate monitor doesn't dig in like others I have tried. All in all, I am really pleased with it. I had a few teething problems (user error) and rang Garmin who were really helpful. I would definitely recommend this watch. If my opinions change in the future, i will come back and update this reveiw, but in the meantime I am happy to give it 5 stars.

Es un excelente producto, muy bueno, de alta calidad, funcional, lo uso para natación principalmente y ha mejorado mucho la precisión en relación al Vivoactive; sin embargo, de acuerdo a los ejercicios que realices puede llegar a tener mediciones erróneas siempre y cuando no realices el mismo ejercicio al nadar, si es el mismo estilo la precisión es excelente y magnífica, puedes instalar diversos deportes y para el uso en exteriores es genial, la detección de ejercicio también es aceptable y puedes realizar varias cosas desde su interfaz.

I bought the Vivoactive 3 around three days ago. This is a great watch. I paid a little over 160 dollars / w tax included. Let me just say it is a tremendous buy & well worth the money. The battery life is great. I'm at 47% as of right now. And that's with the GPS running, plus Bluetooth on. This watch is a very accurate piece. Keeps time we'll. You can set this watch up for swimming, walking, running,golf,and areobics. It's excellent on keeping messages & viewing notifications. It uses the Garmin,and Garmin Connect apps. This watch pairs with your phone like a charm. The Vivoactive 3also has Garmin Pay. Which is handy for those times that you may have left your smartphone at the house or somewhere in your car. This has sleep tracking, calories in take. Measures your heartbeat & blood pressure. In the Garmin app you may set it up for physical fit challenges and programs. Right now it's giving me two messages. More tips on how to use the watch. And it just told me to get up & move. And this time piece is very trendy, good looking. Plus it's sturdy but real comfy to wear. This is a good buy.

Also ich hatte bereits die Forerunner 35, 235, sowie die Vivoactive HR und muss sagen, die Vivoactive 3 ist für meine alltäglichen Nutzungen perfekt. Ich gehe regelmäßig schwimmen (bei normaler "Schwimmbadfülle" erkennt sie jede Bahn korrekt, sofern man nicht auf halber Bahn aufhört ;)), laufen und ab und an Radfahren und sie hat mich bis jetzt nicht im Stich gelassen. Zu beachten ist, dass aufgrund ihres kurzen Daseins noch einige Apps und Widgets nicht zur Verfügung stehen (und manche noch etwas spinnen), aber das WIchtigste für mich (Accu Weather, Batteryanalyse, und 2 unterschiedliche Watchfaces, eins für Daten (mit funktionierenden Barometer!!) und ein schickes...) funktioniert reibungslos. Tragekomfort ist am Besten von den genannten Garmin Geräten. Vom Funktionsumfang für sportliche Aktivitäten bis zum 24/7 Tracking lässt die Uhr nichts zu Wünschen übrig. Nach dem Kauf hatte ich ebenfalls in der Firmware 2.3 Probleme mit dem Akku, welche aber nach Installation von 2.8 behoben wurden. (Merke: Jeder Akku braucht in einem neuen Gerät erst mal ein zwei Ladezyklen bis er seine volle Leistung abrufen kann.) Zur tatsächlichen Akkulaufleistung werde ich später noch was schreiben, habe am Anfang wie immer viel herumgespielt und kann so noch keine normale "Alltagsabnutzung" beurteilen. Ich kann die Uhr nur wärmstens Empfehlen, wem das Design der Vivoactive HR aber nicht stört und auf Stresslevelmessung verzichten kann, ist hier aber genauso gut bedient. ---Update 05.01.2017: Hier mal meine Erfahrung die ich heute gemacht habe: on firmware 2.9 this is my experience: - "At the moment i've got 1,58% per hour.. so maybe the update helped a little. But thats about 2,6 Days max without GPS.. I have a battery widget, accu weather and a really simple watchface without seconds. I'll delete those to check if they are the reason for my battery drain.. I had some issues aside the battery problem and they all were caused by third party apps.. so I think there's the problem." - "Wow okay... after deleting every third party widget and app and watchface (except battery for getting this infos) I lost 0.00 in 25 minutes!! That’s what I call progress.. !!! So to all developers out there. Get your battery usage fixed 😀" - "quick update: ~ 1 hour usage: 99,5 percent left --> estimated remaining time 8,6 days with 0,48%/hour" - "quick update: ~ 1,5 hour usage: 99,2 percent left --> estimated remaining time 8,7 days with 0,474%/hour" Zusammengefasst: Die Uhr hält was sie verspricht, nur sind die Drittanbieterapps mit Vorsicht zu genießen.. - Update 15.1.2017 Ich bin immer noch sehr zufrieden mit der Uhr. Habe für mich das richtige set up gefunden wodurch ich bei deaktivierten Bluetooth einen Batterieverbrauch von knapp 0,3-0,4 % pro Stunde erreiche. Reiner Uhrenmodus mit Pulsmessung und Tracking, also knapp 11,5 Tage. Mit Bluetooth dauerhaft aktiviert komme ich auf mindestens 7 Tage und 10 Stunden GPS sind auch mindestens drin. Da einige doch viele Probleme haben kann ich nur sagen, es kommt zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt voll und ganz auf die Uhr drauf an.. meine hat nahezu keiner der hier erwähnten Fehler.

Muy buen producto enviado relación precio/calidad($4,300, mayo 2019), con correas intercambiables (no incluidas) para que se vea un poco más SPORT o Formal, tiene un 80% de precisión al detectar pasos o escaleras, no soy deportista y lo utilizo para tener un aproximado de mi actividad diaria/ejercicio, así que no le veo problema.
